Flipper's Barbershop

"The only place I trust to do a good job every time. I wait for when I am back in Troy to get my hair cut here. I’m going to be very sad when I move away after college :("

"Twice now I've gotten terrible cuts from them. I went yesterday and I was in there for no more than ten minutes. Didn't listen to what I told him at all - finger length on top, 5 on sides. Instead he proceeded to do a 4 on the entire head. He then touched my beard, shaving away a HALF of my mustache to the point a section of it is a thin line. On the neck he raised the beard line by a half inch on one side without touching the other. By far the worst haircut I've ever seen and received. Also beware, again they will touch-up your beard without asking, and then proceed to charge you an additional $10 on the $25 haircut."

"I've been to this barbershop a few times before and I've usually had good experiences, but my most recent visit was a major letdown. I had an appointment for 3 PM, and I got there about 10 minutes early thinking I wouldn't have to wait too long. Instead, they gave priority to a walk-in customer and I ended up waiting a frustrating 20 minutes for my turn. Now, about the haircut itself, it was just awful. They trimmed the sides way too high, and I ended up looking like I had an egg-shaped head. I was so unhappy with it that I had to buzz off all my hair a few hours later. They tried to conceal the bad haircut with excessive hair product, but it couldn't hide the mess. To make matters worse, the barber was rude. I don't mind small talk, but at least make it sincere. Instead, I got sarcastic responses like "awesome" or "cool," which really rubbed me the wrong way. I would've rather just had silence at that point. To top it off, they've jacked up their prices from $25 to $30. Considering the terrible experience, this price hike doesn't seem to align with the level of service I received."

"We just left Flippers and can’t stop talking about the fantastic establishment and barbers. The price is beyond reasonable for the time, care, and expertise we experienced here. All the barbers were welcoming and professional. We will definitely be back."

"I can’t believe this place has been here for three years and we have never seen it. I walked in with my brother and they took him right in. It is such a great environment. Definitely gives old school vibes with the music and how the gentlemen dress. They take their time to give you the perfect cut without rushing like most places. I would recommend this place to anyone. The have the cutest greater with paws by the way."
