I was looking for a new barber since moving to the area 12 months ago. Ben was great at working out my hairstyle for my wedding that was happening two days away. We discussed what my future plan with my hair style was and how to best accomodate the style for the wedding. We had a great chat while my hair was cut. Looking forward to getting back in the chair for my next haircut.

I found Kaine after he left his old shop because he's literally the best barber I've ever had. Great guy too and he has interesting opinions on WWII leaders.
