Martin did the first haircut for our 5 month old. I understand that giving a baby a haircut is very difficult. Martin is very skilled and experienced that the cut came out better than I could have imagined. I highly recommend him as making him your barber. The shop is well kept and professional.

Martin (again not me) really knows how to style hair. I love my new look but The shop is clean, modern, and has a great vibe.
