5 /5 Meranda Devor: My tiny family just moved to northern california and my kiddo was in dire need of a haircut after he decided trying to grow out his hair to donate was so not worth the tangles that came with everyday maintenance. Enter Elises Barber Shop! I was nervous that I wouldnt be able to get a same day appointment when I called and the lovely lady on the other end of the line told me to bring my boy in and they would get him in a chair. Immediately upon entering the establishment, I was pleased to find a relaxed atmosphere and a kind woman named Dawn cheerful and eager to help. The establishment was very tidy and it seems the customer service experience is just as lovely as the other reviews claim. There are a few toys to keep the young ones occupied while parents get their hair orderly, and even cold beverage for those who are waiting. We were the only customers in at the time but I get the feeling that this place is an enjoyable one to have a chat with neighbors and friends. Its very comfortable and all things small town comfort that big name shops have never been able to offer, speaking from experience.
I showed her a photo of what I wanted and she said, "No problem!" She put the bib around him when he was settled and even put some paper around his collar to avoid itchy hair falling into his shirt. It took her about 20 minutes or so to turn his wild hair into an adorable pompadour style, told me what kind of product was needed to suit his hair, and the whole wonderful experience only cost me $20! I would highly reccomend this establishment to mothers who have found the art of trimming young boy hair elusive! I will be bringing my son here for all future haircuts and Im so glad to have found such a welcoming community to raise him in!
