My partner and I came into your store for the first time on Monday. The barber who cut my partners hair his name was Ali. He was a really friendly guy, and took his time to listen to what kind of haircut my partner wanted, he took his time and his attention to detail was great. Possibly the best haircut he has ever had. He will definitely be back to have his hair cut from Ali again.
