Worst shave of my life. I cannot believe their practices haven't been addressed & alleviated. Guy starts by clipper cutting my one week of growth. I literally almost called it right there and left. I wish I would have. Next, he runs an electric shaver on my face. He did all this in about 5 mins. No brushing away hair just brute force & machines. I could have walked away at this point with a shaven face. Next, the actual razor shave begins. They have these humidifying machines that I think are supposed to be like hot towels but it didn't do much. I got a hot towel for like 60 seconds. Shave starts. He goes AGAINST my grain. I should have left. I should have said something. I ran home and tried to mitigate damage but dude got so close. Too close. Literally took a chunk out of my chin. This was 2.5 days ago. I'm battling razor bumps like crazy. I started a new job yesterday and look disgusting. I have gotten razor shaves many a time in my life. Most recently just last month. I have never had such a horrible experience. Which, again, is ongoing. My face is fq'd. I took pictures. Right after the shave & the day after the shave. I just woke up on day 2 and I'm considering taking off work to go see a doctor. It's that bad. And it was $50 dollars

Lipe honestly the best barber I’ve been to. Dude just gets it. Every cut I had before either looked too boxy or grew out weird, but Lipe actually knows how to shape it so it grows clean. I got short hair and he’s been helping me build it into a longer style without that helmet head look — it’s crazy how smooth it’s been. He knows every style, fades are perfect, and he always makes sure the cut fits your face and style. Real chill guy too. I’m 100% coming back, no doubt.

I’ve been seeing Rimon for years and his new venture, The Secret Barbershop, is great new space. Extremely well made, clean, great style, and comfortable. The haircut and beard trim are always top notch. Can’t recommend it higher

This new barbershop is the perfect addition to the neighborhood. With the ambience, to the professional barbers, this is an all around 10/10. They offer a free full-body massage chair, beer, and wine. Rimon and Raad are the best barbers and owners in town, it’s definitely worth a trip!
