Always a very good mens cut here by Shane.Posted on Justin Auch2025-12-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great job. 🙏Posted on Manny Rosado2025-12-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This a Top Notch Men’s Salon. First let me tell you prior to coming to Steel Blade Salon I had 3 terrible haircuts from 3 reputable salons. Needless to say I was gun shy. All of the apprehension was gone after the initial talk with my professional Alex! She’s amazing! She took the time to listen, laid out the game plan and excited to perfection! This is now my spot and I have scheduled my next appointment ..with Alex of course. So find your person gents! They are right here at Steel Blades Men’s Salon! P.S. On my way out I saw a glorious beard (jealous because I can’t grow one) looked sharp and I heard this guy say he looked bougie with the biggest smile. Get in her boys, you won’t regret it.Posted on Rich Cederberg2025-12-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
