New Style Barbershop — Attraction in Moline

First time going and had high hopes for this place because of the reviews. I called and made an appointment with a random barber. While he was cutting my hair i found out he just graduated couple months ago. I asked for the sides and back to be faded & tighter and the top to be tapered shorter. The back of my head and sides are literally bald now and the top is still long! I have never had my hair this short and never wanted it this short. Plus i left with hair clippings all over my face. The barber did apologize to me and i still paid for it but now im heading to another shop to fix the hair on top. More money out of my pocket. Also i went to this place thinking they were taking covid seriously wearing masks like the facebook page and signs were showing, but nope. Only ONE barber had a mask on Friday 2pm. My barber wasnt wearing one either. I know masks are annoying. I work healthcare dealing with this junk upfront. Its not right or cool to say you do something and not follow through with it. I barely ever write bad or good reviews, but this was overall a bad experience. Im sure the guys are cool and most do great. My guy may just need more experience. Also another note i was turned away from the mirror the whole time. I didnt see ANYTHING he was doing. If i couldve seen myself while he was cutting and if there was more communication there may possibly have been a...

Just got my second cut at New Style and to say it was a great cut is an UNDERSTATEMENT (fades are off the hoooook). I got exactly what I wanted. There was a spot where I asked for something a little different than the picture I showed and he got it spot on. My first cut was with Vinny, dope cut, this cut was with Gomez, also a dope cut. I drive an hour and fifteen minutes to get my hair cut here just because I know they will ace it. pricing is very reasonable as well! Just a couple tips before you go…

Know what you want and have a reference picture. I use just one reference picture, otherwise it gets confusing. Write a list in your phone of things you DO NOT WANT and things YOU DO WANT. For example, if you don’t like your sideburns/mustache/beard touched, write it down and tell them that before you get your cut. If you like a certain angle on your neckline, write it down. Communicate with your barber before AND during the cut. They can’t read your mind. If something it starting to feel off or too short just say “Can I have you hold up quick I have a question”.

All in all, great vibe, great...

Richie has moved and is now the owner of ACE OF FADEZ in Rock Island Illinois.

I've been going to RICHIE MARTINEZ for the past 3 years. I have to say, I'm glad I found him. I won't let anybody else touch my hair. Or my son's. Richie knows exactly what you want and gets it done. He's professional, great to talk to, and remembers you for you, and your conversations. It's nice to walk in a couple weeks to a couple months(sorry Richie) later and still proceed on the conversation from before. They're very reasonable on prices and give a way better cut then most known name places. He takes the time and care for the passion he loves. You'll always leave feeling 110%. He free hand designs if you ask him also. I always have him throw something on the side. It never disappoints. I always have compliments on my hair after my appointment. I've even had strangers take pictures of the designs he's done. I know kinda weird but hey, whatever floats your boat. So to wrap it up, just ask for Richie and I'll bet you won't ever go...
