Fantastic experience: I just wanted to show my appreciation for jaz and his mahi with my son on and off for 5 years. Though we no longer go in to see jaz as our times no longer align and our need for haircuts are when ever we can at last minute. Our whanau will always have love for this Barber and his mahi. So thank you jaz. Hopefully my boy can come back when times align in the near future

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Jazz enough! From the moment you walk into the shop, the vibe is welcoming and relaxed, and you instantly feel like you’re in good hands. Jazz is more than just a barber he’s an artist with the clippers. Every cut is precise, every fade is flawless, and he always takes the time to make sure you leave looking your absolute best. What really stands out is the care and attention to detail. Jazz actually listens to what you want, gives great advice, and always delivers a fresh, clean look that lasts. The shop has great energy, good music, and plenty of laughs it’s the kind of place you actually look forward to visiting. If you want a barber who truly takes pride in their craft and will have you walking out feeling sharp and confident every single time, Jazz is your guy.

Hamish Guthrie Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Jazzlee is, hands down, the most kind-hearted, genuine barber that I've ever had the privilege of being in the room with. Gently spoken, Jazzlee is a friendly, stand up guy who makes sure his customers know that they're more than just a number or a bum on the seat. I'd recommend the Neighbourhood Barber as a destination barber even if you have to travel for it. He's worth the effort
