Eyebrows (Hector)
by Hector Amalbert
Hector is a professional on what he does I have worked with Hector I was at the shop when this client arrived, the 1st thing Hector asked this client ...is what kind of haircut he wanted, hector never cuts clients hair without brushing their hair 1st, hector did a taper haircut he never did a moahawk David i dont know with what purpose you came to the shop but your review its all lies brother Hector is a professional. We as barbers respect all types of opinions good or bad. What we dont take is lies. Show more

I DID NOT LIKE MY HAIRCUT. Look at the line up in cut up and the front is uneven. I asked for zero mid fade with a very short trim on top as i was go...ing to get braided. Soon as i sat down Hector started to just chop away without asking how much i wanted off. End product he left me a mohawk and a half fade smh never coming back. Left beyond pissed I had no words Update: As i posted my review Hector reached out telling me i lied and that he never touched the top of my hair. I would not be wasting my time coming up with lies see the pictures for reference. You sent me a text letting me know that theres cameras that record our whole transaction. Look back and refer to that footage review and see your mistakes. Sure you have had thousands of customers but you act like like youve never messed up. I was clear with what i wanted to have done to my hair. Ive never gone to a barber that just starts chopping hair away. Every barber ive gone to has pinned my hair up first and start on the fade you started with the top and didnt even brush the hair while you cutting away. Like i told you via text the only reason that i went with your recommendation was because it seemed like you were uncertain with what i had asked. This was clear to me since you cut the top of hair without talking to me about how short i wanted it. The only reason i went your with what you recommended was because i felt like this would save the error you had already did. After showering i noticed You left the top uneven that when i slick my hair i need to apply a whole tub because the sides stick up. Look at how much gel you applied on me to cover the mistake. Like i mentioned to your manager on the text i paid you $70 so that you can see what missed out of, you could of had a good paying customer. I also never said it was perfect i just shook my head , why would i tell you its perfect when it wasnt. Update: Childish reply from a 40y/o man. Just take the L. Just cause you got a bad review you over here texting me from two different numbers. You acting like I'm reaching out for a refund or a free cut. Yes please show the footage cause why would i be lying for what purpose? You claim to be a professional barber but aren't acting like it. If you acting this over booksy, i could only imagine how you would of been if i told you person. I had plans and i wasn't going to waste my time any further with you in trying to fix my haircut. You had already messed up my hair so why would I have you try to fix it? This is why i accepted the haircut as is. Hope maybe after this you can learn how to take criticism instead of being paranoid and thinking that someone's out there trying to get you. Peace ✌️ Show more

Thank you so much for your feedback. In 15 years of experience I have serviced thousands of people and I have never done a single client without asking them what they want and if they allow me any recommendations like I did with you then I would proceed. I did not do the lining on your hair, and for the type, size and shape of your head I recommended you what I thought would look great on you, before I was done I showed you with the mirror and you said it was perfect. I even asked you if the taper was fine or if you wanted me to do the fade. (Taper is what I recommend you, fade is what you had asked) You came to my shop, you gave me 70 dollars for for a service you did not like? you never told me you wanted braids, I came to know that you wanted braids with your review. So my question is did someone send you to give me a bad review? I thank you for your feedback. Enjoy your weekend. UPDATE: I am beyond convinced I have a huge fan. David, if booksy would allow me to post pictures or the video footage of your cut I would gladly upload them, so that everyone can see who is lying. You said if was your birthday so instead of enjoying your birthday and your weekend you have spend the weekend harassing me about a service that you did not liked? Why didn’t you tell me this in my face? UPDATE: One year later this fan still writing. Just stop harassing me, You keep writting me at all hours, yesterday at 8:01pm, then at 11:33pm

I went to Hector after my regular barber was unavailable and he was very personable and did a great job with my cut!! I asked for a low taper fade aro...und the sides and light scissor work on top. He took his time didn’t make me feel rushed, and it’s one of the best tapers I’ve gotten. We chatted about the Bulls, and the neighborhood. I will make this my new regular spot. Show more
