The Gentleman's Choice

"Greg Miller is the Champ at Gentleman Choices. The barbershop was superb and very clean. On time. Very professional. I’ll never go nowhere else!!!!"

"Great place, knew what they were doing. First good barber I’ve found in lex."

"Try it for yourself, but the employees there were extremely rude to me and a friend waiting for a haircut, we ended up just walking out. They seemed mad that we were walk in’s, even though their sign out front says “walk ins welcome. I wouldn’t go there myself."

"After reading the reviews for this shop, I had very high hopes. My appointment was at 5pm on a Friday. I walked into the shop and was the only person besides the barber and his young son. The shop’s decor is interesting and it was very clean. The barber greeted me and ushered me to the chair. It was still a couple of minutes before my appointment time, so I asked if I could use the restroom first. This seemed to bother him but he pointed it out to me. Once I returned to the chair, he asked me what we were doing and I told him I had a photo. He examined the back of my head and told me I had a double crown. I asked what that meant and he explained. Then he added, “it means it’s difficult to cut your hair”. He asked if any other barber had mentioned this to me, and I told him one, but after that I never returned to that shop. It’s hard to trust someone cutting your hair when one of their first comments about it is “it’s difficult”.After discussing the length of the fade I had shown him, he began with the clippers. There was an awkward vibe and I asked if he’d rather not be working on a Friday evening. He seemed taken aback but said he was fine being there. We chatted on and off while the cut went on, mostly because it felt so awkward. Once he completed the first pass he let me look in the mirror and while the cut wasn’t exactly what I had shown him, I liked what he had done except the excess hair around the crown which was just sticking out and not well blended. When I asked if he could blend that hair in better, he seemed indignant to be asked to cut more. At this point, his next appointment had arrived and he seemed in a hurry to have me out of his chair. He walked over to the register before I had even moved from the chair and took my payment. The whole appointment felt rushed and almost like I had inconvenienced him by scheduling it. Once I returned home, I examined my hair more closely and while it’s not the best haircut I’ve ever received, it’s not the worst. There was a lot of excess hair on the back of my neck that didn’t get trimmed down and the front of my hair line was still uneven. This shop didn't feel welcoming but more like an assemble line. I decided on this shop after a google search and after reading reviews. I guess I’ve learned a lesson about the trustworthiness of online reviews and suppose I’ll try the next barber in my list when it’s time for my next haircut."

"The first thing I said when I sat down was I don’t like my hair short — I just needed a trim … my hair hasn’t been this short since I was nine. Never again. He never used scissors — no attention to detail — he just ran clippers all over my head … took him all of 10 minutes."
