Thank you
Fantastic experience: Legends!
No you are - haha on the real though, thanks for coming through. Much appreciated bro
Fantastic experience: Whats not to love about Get Shorty. The cuts are amazing and Mike, JD and Jake are always super friendly and professional. I have said it before and I will say it again; I don't think you will find a better fade or men's cut anywhere else in Geelong. The thing about Get Shorty for me though is the whole experience. Coming from cheap cuts or the odd hairdressers, the feeling when the boys put in the time and effort to make sure your hair is perfect while also listening to some great tunes and some genuine conversation is something special. Being a frugal person going and seeing the boys is not only about the end product, it has become a treat to myself :) Keep it up gents
Ah schucks huge words D - much obliged. Thanks for keeping us so motivated to keep bringing the heat.
Fantastic experience: Have been a customer of Get Shorty for some time now and I would not look anywhere else..From the moment you walk threw the door you are made to feel more like family rather than just a number.100% fire
Huge - thanks for kind words Dan. Count down for the wedding in on

Fantastic experience: You know what they say, finding the right barber is like digging for that golden needle in a haystack! Mikey and the team know where it's at. I've had cuts from Get Shorty for a number of years now, and they've never missed a beat. Hands down the best barbers in Gtown.
