I shave my head bald and have a full beard. Boris does it all and I go once a week. Everyone there is excellent at their jobs and the price is right. This place is legit.

My husband did a walk in, and was helped right away. The pricing is reasonable and affordable for a cut and beard trimming. Thank you Boris for a great cut.

Cynthia BaileyAug 2024

Boris is phenomenal! Went above and beyond for my buddy who is a retired Vet on home hospice & longtime client. Maurice wouldn't let anyone else touch his hair so Boris came to him! You're a blessing.

Christine CasadosMar 2023

Boris is the man! I won't see anyone else but him while I'm in or around Denver. I've been going to him for around 6 months now and he knocks it out of the park every time, and remembered my name right away. You won't be disappointed! — Chris from NY
