Blue Ridge Barber Shop

I try not to be too harsh about things, but my one visit here was a nightmare. I went on a weekend around 12 and there was no one there. When I pulled up two of the staff were outside smoking right in front of the building. I’m not opposed to smoking, though I don’t, but I feel like an employee at work shouldn’t do it out in the open. When I walked past them, neither said hello or got up and they walked in shortly after I did.
Then when they came in, NEITHER OF THEM WASHED THEIR HANDS! This is a business where your hands are going to be all over my head and face, I would appreciate the human decency of a handwash post cigarette. Next, they lady, who was tolerant of me at best (despite me being amiable and smiling), asked how I wanted my hair done. I responded with my classic, «Short, but not too short. I need to be able to do something with it.» When I saw that my request didn’t land, I said about an inch-​an inch and a quarter. I was never asked about scissors or clippers and thus clippers, which I loathe, were used. Everything seemed alright until I caught a look and saw that, to my total disgust, she had cut my hair down to a QUARTER OF AN INCH.
The staff here is dismissive, perhaps unsanitary, and they can’t even perform a simple haircut. I try really hard not to be so negative, but I was EXTREMELY angry. I have never had such an awful haircut.

Not one of my favorite places. Haircuts have been only fair to acceptable. Staff aren’t very accommodating. On more than one occasion I felt like I was there for them. Ha. And, don’ t even think of this place in the afternoons unless you love to hear lots of screaming kids while the parents/​guardian endlessly gossips with the staff while the reat of the hoard amuses themselves with whatever they can get into. I stopped going here because of the long waits and unsupervised kids. Go somewhere else if you are looking for a place where you can be in and out inside half an hour.
