Omar's Hair Salon & Barber Shop — Local services in Harrisonburg

They lied about the cost for a simple cut and trim around the edges. Then they lied about a barber who could do my kind of hair. Then they lied about my being 2nd in line and would be serviced in 30 minutes. I waited about 2 hours and at that time all but one barber was busy, and 2 other people walked in. My barber serviced the others and then worked on a man who came in after me for almost an hour before he came to me. I waited patiently hoping I was being treated fairy. When he finally came to me I asked him if he could do my kind of hair and asked him to touch it becaue it is very soft and fine. I expained that I just wanted a simple afro cut. Then asked if he used pick before. He said they get many black clients. When he started to pick out my hair, I had to tell him to stop because I was in pain because he was pulling my hair out from the root and breaking my hair off. I asked him to let me show him how to do it right. But he kept assuring me that he knew what he was doing and that he has been a barber for more than 15 years. He looked no older than 32 so he must have beendoing black hair since he was a teenager. He had a strong non American accent so I'm not sure how long he has lived in the USA, and question seriously if he even really touched a black person, not to mention their hair, 15 years ago even in this country. Yet I tried to give him a chance but still had to pick my hair out myself. He proceeded to cut my hair in 2 different directions because he could not angle his hand to cut my left side in the same direction and was patting my hair down. I asked him if he could just shape it nice and round like a ball using scizzors instead. I picked my hair out again to show that he did not cut it evenly. I could tell he was getting irritated. Then in the middle of what he was doing, he was called to the back. I suspected it was to talk about me in their language. Altogether it took him longer than he should have because I had to show him how to cut my hair and pick it out myself, and show where he cut my hair uneven. Nonetheless, I thanked him for doing the best he could, but obviously he did not have the experience he said he did. When I went to pay, the girl at the register had left and my barber had to take my money. He said my simple do cost five dollars more because his boss said that it was a hair style not a hair cut. They spent more time on the men with way less hair and charged them less(SMH) I was going to refer my husband but not after my unpleasant experience. They really should have not have lied and then overcharged me. I'm sure they had jokes and laughs about me. They got my money but not my trust. I really trusted them as professionals and I was mislead (SMH). I observed that they are all excellent barbers and obviously have many happy clients. Just sad I wasn't...

I brought both of my grandson in yesterday for a hair cut, barbers could not speak English so made it very hard to communicate, my boys ages were 7 and 3, both boys wanted a lighting bolt design on the side of there head which the barber had no clue what that was, the front desk lady had to explain it and he did a horrible job giving it to him , my 3 year I wanted a little short cut and 7 year old wanted a short fade spike on the top, I was please with the 3 year old, but the 7 year old was not, the barber did not know what he was doing, the other barber had to help him, it took over a hour to figure out a simple cut, needless to say, my son said he was pleased but he got into the car he cried he hated it, I as well I was not pleased at all, was the worst haircut I've ever recieved, I paid and tipped both barber because I was so burned out by the time I left I just wanted to get out of there, no one should take that long and put a 7 year though over a hour for a haircut, I should not had to paid, 78 for two little boys hair cuts this ridiculous, for a hair cut that he hates, the barber should be shame of himself to do this to this little boy. Some in there should make this right for grandson at there cost, I found this barber very rude, for one I should never been asked to leave my 7 or 3 alone with stanger while getting there haircut, my 3 I refused to do, my 7 year old is very shy and just wanted a cool cut for school this cut is horrible, haircuts say a lot about for a little when starting back to school. If you can't cut little boys hair maybe you shouldn't. Very unhappy something should be made right here either a refund or find someone who can fix it, we lift their exhausted and very unhappy. And I don't need excused from the other ladies as well I was a...
