EXCELLENT Based on 8 reviews Posted on Google Phil s.2026-06-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did not receive a simple haircut, I received an entire experience! It was fantastic; I had a great conversation with my barber, a very pleasant pampering, and will definitely be going back there from now on.Posted on Google James Brown2026-06-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been going to Steel Blade for about a year and a half now. Joseph always gives me great service. I love the hour or so of pampering and I appreciate the results. There's nothing like a professional shave!Posted on Google Daniel Ibarra2026-06-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tesha was amazing. I am definitely making this my only place where I get my hair cut.Posted on Google Bonanna2026-06-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was an absolutely amazing experience. Typically I'd get haircuts from places and show a reference picture, just for it to either be too short, too long, or nothing like I wanted. Showed a picture here and boom, a quick haircut later and it looks EXACTLY like the picture I showed. Pretty pricey, but I feel the price comes with a wave of satisfaction, even as someone who doesn't like to get too pricey with purchases. With my haircut, I also did get product, so in actually the premium haircut is about the same price as three pretty mediocre haircuts, but it for sure shows especially if you're thinking of trying a new hairstyle.Posted on Google Corey Zimmerman2026-06-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Outstanding Experience! Brandie knocked it out of the park! From the moment I sat down, I knew I was in great hands. She gave me one of the best beard trims I’ve ever had—clean, precise, and perfectly shaped to fit my style. But the real game changer was the beard wash. It was incredibly relaxing and left my beard feeling softer, healthier, and looking better than ever. Brandie’s attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine passion for what she does truly set her apart. I walked out feeling refreshed, confident, and looking my absolute best. In fact, I already have my next appointment on the calendar because there’s no question—I’m definitely coming back! If you want your beard to look its best and enjoy an amazing experience while you’re at it, book with Brandie. You won’t regret it!Posted on Google Gabriel Flores2026-06-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful experience. Warm conversation and professional.
