My Son recommended this place and Im very glad that he did.Tyler did a tremendous job! Absolutely the best haircut that Ive had in years.Its not that other places are bad, only that these folks are well above the rest. An All-Star Barbershop!This morning I received a seamless, perfect cut all the way around, and indeed left feeling renewed, Polished and Proper:)

My son has been going to Polished and Proper for a few years now. He wont go anywhere else. The staff is great there but, Justin is amazing! Thank you for making my sons day every time he goes.

I simply wouldnt go anywhere else. I have had several haircuts from every barber at the shop and I have never received anything less than an outstanding cut! Attention to detail, precision and a high standard of service are par for the course when it comes to this shop!

Nice comfortable place, step back in time to old days of the art. Only 4 stars cause of the lack of signage out front and hard time finding the place

Best place in NH to get a haircut. The atmosphere is vintage and inviting. Leave your phone on silent and enjoy the feeling of getting your hair cut to perfection by any one of the amazing barbers that work here.Justin and Tyler are my go-tos and I will always highly recommend their work.

I made an appointment for a haircut on the Friday of Fathers Day weekend. Not only did they cancel on me at the last minute because the barber called in sick, but when I called to see if there was anyway they could help me the guy on the phone had an attitude and I almost felt like it was my fault Lol!!! Not a good first experience! Not looking to give them another..

Went in as a walk in and was seen within a reasonable amount if time, the shop is busy but that isnt a bad thing. Got an expert haircut and beard trim by Justin, went in looking like Grizzly Adams and came out with a cool and refined cut. Highly recommended

Great local barber. Very nostalgic. Awesome crew. Great cuts. Way better cuts than other places I have been. There is usually a wait, but it worth it. I dont go anywhere else now.

Great experience. Bree (the owner and my barber) was excellent conversation and an even better shave. She walked me through the shave like an old friend, even though this was a vacation visit.Honestly one of the closest and most relaxing shaves I have ever had. Highly recommended and if Im ever in the area Id stop back for a shave.

Review №21

I usually go to Ricks in Meredith, but needed a cut before work travel on a Monday. Bree (owner) cut my hair. As I attempted to tell her how I wanted it cut, she interrupted me, touted how experienced she was and ended up cutting my hair WAY too short. Save the attitude, Bree, and listen to your customers...business 101. Seeing the other reviews, it seems your attitude is the main source of any negativity and your responses to negative posts tell the story. Listening skills are essential in business and I sincerely wish your business success going forward.

Great barbers. Very consistent service. Walk in service mostly. Hard to get an appointment and you cant put your name in ahead of time before arriving not can you see the waiting list online. Otherwise they would get 5 stars. They are good!!!

My son and I hot cuts here for his birthday and they took great care of us, I love the sense of community at a local barbershop. This is where people can come together to socialize which I dont believe many folks do anymore.

Review №32

Very nice, clean and professional. I spent two hours when it was only moderately busy to pay $25 for a haircut. The haircut was very good but if youre into those prices and those wait times, its a great place.

I was the unfortunate recipient of a bad haircut from another (unnamed) establishment in the area. So, as a walk-in, I was sat down with Gina, who not only welcomed the challenge of fixing someone elses mistake but gave me a great cut I didnt feel the need to cover up with a ball cap. I will be going back, I just wont be getting a bad cut from somewhere else first.

Review №41

I understand their desire to shorten the long wait times by raising prices, and they claim they are doing this for us. But what does this say to their long-term customers that live on tight budgets who brought them to this point? It says: were going to shorten wait times for those who can afford it by pricing you out. A more customer-oriented business strategy would be to use the extra revenue to expand the business there, or move to a larger location.

Great haircut and hot shave from Gina. I would suggest making an appointment as waits can be long, but they have a text service that tells you where you are in line. Estimated wait was almost to the minute. Had a very good experience.

You cant go wrong with a haircut here! Friendly and knowledge barbers, great atmosphere, and above all, fantastic haircuts. Bree, Sam, Travis, and Tom staff an amazing establishment!

Review №45

Very rude owner. I was clearly a new customer and was given some of the worst customer courtesy Ive ever been met with. I left and spent my money where I was greeted with a smile and professional courtesy. I do not recommend this place no matter how good the owner thinks her shop is. She should not be in the business and probably not allowed around people in general. Dont waste your time or money here.

Review №48

This place drives me nuts. Barbers talk way too much causing amazingly long waits. People walk in and turn around if more than 2 people are waiting. And they do not care. Never coming back again. Not worth the frustration. Haircuts are ok.

I love the place! Seeing is how I cant shave a straight line if my life depended on it my choices of facial hair options were quite limited but thanks to them every time I can try something new! Im actually hoping to stop in today if I can get into town soon enough.

Great service and great cuts, I drive out of my way to go here. Often has a little wait, but its worth it for a good haircut and their sign in system makes it easy to know when youre up next.

Review №55

The owner freaked out on me because my phone rang while I was waiting. I went outside to take the call, when I came back inside she barrated me. She is misrible and not worthy of my money! Rick’s Barbershop has my business now! The people at Rick’s are respectful veterans and not Liberal snowflakes.... like at Polished and Proper!

Excellent customer service, very polite, and i received the best haircut from any barber shop in the area. Had an old style to it with the old chairs, cash register, and the record player. The barber tools in the window give it the sense of uniqueness.

Fantastic barber shop on Main Street of Laconia. Bree and Tyler are both tremendous barbers whether it be for a haircut or straight razor shave. Their popularity has been the only downfall because you always have a long line before you, but recently they brought in an app that allows you to sign in providing your cell phone number and then you can wander around downtown until you receive a text notifying you that it is now your turn. With this, you can visit the antique center, Wayfarer Coffee Roasters, The Laconia Village Bakery or step around the corner for a shoe shine at Daubs Cobbler Shop. Great customer service and the best haircut in town...
