Beauty Salon Jimenez in Elgin, IL

They do a great job here ,very precise hairs cuts/ styles. Be prepared to wait because they're in demand.

At first, I thought Rosy was a good stylist, however within 2 weeks, my hair resembled Elsa Lancaster in the old 40s horror film "Bride of Frankenstein" Sure, it only costs $15 for a senior citizen's haircut, but if your hair is standing straight up and has bird's wings within 2 weeks, is it worth the inexpensive cost??!!! Rosy is a very nice person and in all fairness, she did a great job shaping my eyebrows. Other than the eyebrows, the haircut is LOUSY!!

Place sucks, ran by people who have no order You can walk in and wait an hour and someone can just walk in and cut you because they call the barbers as friends and ask if it's ok to cut line This place sucks

Worst barbershop I've been to in Elgin. Don't come here unless you know one of the barbers. It doesn't matter how long you've been waiting or in what order you came in, if one of their friends comes in they'll cut them first & lie & claim they had an appointment. I went in to get my sons hair cut & while I was waiting two other customers came in after me. That's three of us waiting, then another customer comes in & sits by one of the barbers. As that barber is cutting a customers hair I hear the last guy that came in ask him if he has anyone else to cut after his current customer. The barber scans the waiting area, sees that several of us are still waiting for haircuts & still says no. I'm thinking ok maybe he just thinks everyone is waiting for a specific barber. He finishes up with his current customer & again I see him scan the waiting area without asking who is next. He then whispers to the guy that came in last to sit down but because he whispered it he didn't hear him. So I look at him & ask if my son can come up & he says "oh he's first" I'm like "no he's not, he came in after me" at this point he starts stuttering saying "he has an appointment he called me on the phone" so I'm like "no he didn't I just heard him ask you" he gets a deer in headlights look on his face & says "no he didn't ask me anything!" Lol I'm like "ok " & walked out bc I wasn't going to argue with someone who really thought he could lie like I didn't hear everything that went down & there was no way in hell I was going to let him touch my son's hair. Now I'm not one to write "reviews", in fact this is the first one I've written, but this is the second time this has happened to me there with two different barbers which leads me to conclude that this is the M.O. at this shop. The last time was probably over 2 years ago, I walked out that time too & just let my husband be in charge of getting our sons haircut at his barbershop from then on. So I should have known better than to go back to Canno's, but being that it was my baby's first haircut, I wanted to take him. LESSON LEARNED. Little did the guy know I was going to tip 100% since it would be his first haircut & im sure wouldn't of been the easiest customer. ‍

First the good - I have been here a handful of times and overall everyone who has taken care of my cut has done a good job. Unfortunately nobody knows how to do a flat top. The not so good - this is more of a teenage boy hangout. No real adult running the place. They take turns playing music and goofing around. A basic cut can take about 30-45 minutes mostly because they're looking at their phones half the time. The razor finish is a nice touch but I wonder if half these guys are even licensed to handle a razor. If these guys could focus more on the customers this could be a decent place. Sometimes people just want to get somewhere else. the less they mess around the faster they can take care of the customers.
