First time barbershop experience. I recently went natural and came to the barbershop to get it shaped up. Since it was my 1st time there and I was a walk in I had to take the barber that was available. He was fairly young and not a lot of time under his belt so i was a little skeptical, but I must say he did an excellent job on my hair cut I will be back again. LADIES IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF A BARBER CHECK CJ OUT, he does a wonderful job on ladies hair, he will not disappoint you. Plus he's very nice to chat with.

I’m not from the area, I’m from Pennsylvania but visit my highschool friend who lives in Bowie. I always look forward to coming to Bowie to make sure I leave with the freshest cut from tight-n-up. You can tell that Clinton runs an outstanding business by the way the shop is kept and by the artists he employees. Today I had the pleasure of getting my hair cut by Jonathan. He got me looking fresh for my trip to Amsterdam this week. I will always stop here when visiting Bowie. Thank you guys!
