Michael has been cutting my hair for several years. Does a great job and is an enjoyable conversationalist.

So, getting a haircut was on my to do list for awhile and I just couldn't seem to find a hair salon that was not too far away and didn't overcharge or upsell, unlike another I won't Chatter about here... Also, I had some concerns about Covid, so I waited until now when it seems the wastewater counts are steadily decreasing. I realize, though, that the hair stylists at Avenue Barber will wear a mask, if requested, and they have also posted info about their ventilation system - that's great for cold and flu season, too! Plus, they keep the door open in good weather. So, I had a really fantastic cut at a decent price and I am so pleased and relieved! My husband was also very happy with his haircut. We greatly appreciate your professional and affordable services and we will be back - I promise I won't wait two years next time! Thank you, Eliska and Avenue Barber!
