βThe barber here is fantastic for teenagers. He got my grandson talking and conveying what he wanted for his style.β
βMarco gave me the nicest haircut Iβve had in years, including a trim of my beard, but it was much more than just a professional haircut; he treated me with respect as an elderly person. Turning 65 in a few days, I was impressed with Marco and recommend people to go to these boys in Timaru. The music was also superb.β

βThe women at the Cutting Edge are experts at making clients pleased with outstanding haircuts. Very meticulous when cutting hair to style and tidying ears and brows (for guys). They were recommended to me when I moved south a year ago, and I would not consider going anyplace else. Plus, we rarely have to wait long.β
βKathy is an expert with a razor blade when it comes to cutting short hairstyles. I have been returning frequently and am glad to be a regular customer.β

βIf youβre looking for a haircut, a colour, or anything else for your hair, head here. The staff is professional, experienced, and kind. Amazing experience from beginning to end. When I called to book my first visit, a gentleman greeted me kindly. I described what I wanted done, and he never rushed me. He also booked my services. It was refreshing to speak with a salon that was kind and accommodating rather than pompous and nasty.β
βThis is my first visit to Pronto in Timaru, but it will not be my last! Excellent service and chat and I am very pleased with my haircut and colour. Thank you very much for the beautiful and restful experience.β

βI stopped in, expecting to get an appointment for today. Fifteen minutes later, Jack and I are discussing what to do with my hair. After a relaxing head massage, a haircut, some shaping, and a blow dry, I departed the salon. What a beautiful experience! If I lived in Timaru, Jack would be my go-to barber.β
βI contacted them a little earlier, and they were able to take me for a haircut with my long hair. Dana was my hairdresser, and she took the time to listen to my requests and provide me with suggestions. She exuded professionalism while remaining personable. I left quite pleased with my haircut and would suggest her. I paid $68 for shampoo and a haircut.β
