FAQ

What are your hours?

The shop is open Tues-Fri 9 AM to 5 PM, and Saturdays from 9 AM to 1 PM or later. These hours aren’t always set in stone. Sometimes we have a slower day and cut out early, or take a longer lunch than normal. If you miss us, check back again. We’re never too far away.

Do you take walk-ins?

We’re both usually too busy with appointments to accept walk-ins. It can happen on rare occasions, but I wouldn’t recommend rolling the dice on it.

Do you do kids’ haircuts?

Yes. That being said, it really depends on the child’s age and their ability to remain calm and still while we do a haircut. We’re both pretty patient guys, and we’re happy to accommodate as much as we can. We don’t get phased by much, but we’re not trying to torture the poor kid either. We’ll do what we can and as they come in more often we can work towards more detailed styles.

Where are you located? I think I’m here but I don’t see the building.

When you get to the address (707 N. East St #1 Bloomington, IL) there are two brick buildings. They look like apartment buildings, but they’re all small businesses inside. The best way to get to us is to park in the lot that’s in the back and go to the middle door on the corner building. You’ll see us from there! If you’re unsure, give us a call and we’ll get you pointed in the right direction.

Do you do online booking?

This is the best way to book an appointment. The Vagaro app is the easiest to use and allows you to cancel and reschedule appointments on your own. There’s also links on our Facebook and Instagram pages. We’ve found it’s pretty user friendly, but if there are any issues just give us a call. We don’t always have a chance to respond to messages that go through or social media pages, but don’t take that personally. We’re simply just too busy to check multiple platforms for things.

I’m running a few minutes late/I can’t make my appointment. Is that ok?

If you’re more than a few minutes late to your appointment, we’re going to ask that we reschedule. It may not seem like a huge thing, but it can set our whole day behind as we can be booked back to back. Every once in a while we may have some wiggle room, just check in first and we can go from there. If you can’t make it at all, it’s not a big deal. Just cancel your appointment online and re-book when you’re ready. You can always call and let us know as well. We’re not your Dad or your boss so we don’t need to know any details, just a quick heads up is good so we can fill that appointment or use the time for something else. No-shows are annoying, please don’t leave us hanging.

Do you take credit/debit/Venmo/PayPal?

I know we live in a technologically driven world, but it’s just easier and more cost effective for us to accept only cash at this time. There’s an ATM right across the street, but planning ahead always comes in handy.

Do you do hair designs?

No, but there are a couple of shops in town that do. We’d be happy to recommend them to you if that’s what you’re looking for.

Is there wifi?

No. Get an unlimited plan or a hot spot you cheapskate.

Can my buddy hang out while I get my haircut?

Absolutely. I designed this place to be as comfortable and care free as possible. Just don’t bring that dude who blows vape clouds everywhere.

Can I show you a picture of how I want my hair?

Sure! A reference is always nice, so we can both be on the same page. However, we can’t guarantee that you’ll walk out of here looking like Ryan Gosling, Brad Pitt, or that guy from Peaky Blinders.

How far out do I need to schedule my appointment?

We always suggest taking a look at the beginning of the week (Sunday night or Monday morning) and seeing what’s available. Certain morning and mid-day times are easier to snag than others. The afternoons tend to fill up fast. I would recommend just getting on a recurring schedule with one of us if you want to secure a certain timeframe.

How do I know if you’ll be working extra/less hours or gone from the shop entirely?

The best way to keep up with shop closures for vacation or hours changing for a little while are the Facebook and Instagram pages. I try to update those with days off, hour changes, or when/if we add extra appointment times.
