Starts off a little slow but this is the third time I'm playing it through and it's nice to start over at the beginning again. I just hope this time, there's more to the game than previous times playing it. Decent time waster but there are bits where you just have to watch it and wait for points to stack up. Ads aren't invasive which is nice.

Very cute game with a simple but endearing story. You can even choose the mian character's love interest to also be a man so it's gay love. Kudos 👏👏👏👏 Each stylist has their own story and background which you get to learn about so 10/10 for that. It's less of a money grubbing tycoon game and more of a relaxing app to do in your off time. But it's still addicting so watch out 😂! I was pleasantly surprised and will keep on playing! Can't wait for more story to release!

Graphics are good. Story line is cute.but it relys to much on the story line. I love a faster approach to things. For instance it took several levels before I get a new chair. And prior to that it was the same slow pace. Only thing that breaks it up is the story line but it isnt enough to keep me.

I really do enjoy playing this game, it's cute and fun, has an intriguing story line, plus, it doesn't force ads every 60sec, but game play has stalled. I've maxed the barbers, maxed the furniture, maxed reputation, I've got more coin than I can spend, there's literally nothing left to do except wait for updates. It's been nearly 2 months and occasionally I'll check back to see if anything new has been updated, but it's just taking up space on my phone at this point. ☹️

I've played so many tycoon games and this one I was by far having the most fun. Till I got to 300 rep and started the story part. It keeps freezing and I can't get past it no matter what I try. Force close, clear cache, and I don't want to try starting over just to get to the same point and it happens again. Super disappointed. I usually spend money on these types of games to. Glad I didn't.

This game is absolutely one of my favorites. It isn't in your face with ads! Even if there is an ad it's in exchange for something extremely helpful! Like more waiting time, more clients, money, etc. The storyline is fantastic and .99 cents for 100 gems?! That's a steal! Anyway. I definitely love this game and it's amazing that the developers are responding to everyone 😊

Everybody talking about spending money and to many ads is because they want to advance super fast. I've been playing for maybe a month, I've advanced quite well; Watched a little bit of ads to help a bit with diamonds. Other than that, this is a petty fun game. I just topped off on levels. Are there more levels coming?

I didn't play very long but I noticed the game just plays itself. You can upgrade your chairs and that's it. And if you can't get to the people in line they leave. But there's no way to speed up a haircut or speed up a checkout. Literally had customers leaving while I was checking out other customers and they were next in line. That's kinda broken since the game doesn't provide a way to prevent that. Needs a lot more updates before it gets better. Story is great though.

Disappointed with the direction this game took. Far different from other Codigames tycoon games. The story scenes are, to be blunt, long, boring and pointless - I just tap the screen over and over to zip through them and all the missions are done as soon as the next story 'grind' comes after the scene ends. No point in actually playing the game, you're better off just playing for a couple minutes and doubling your offline income, rinse and repeat. I was looking forward to this :(

From the time I started to now, currently, being maxed out on Rep, I've enjoyed the game whole heartedly. There are very different and unique barbers/stylists. They all have a back story. The ads are so beyond not unbearable and others have said you are rewarded for watching the ad. The whole 30secs of your time for gems (especially) have helped me purchase all upgrades for the shop. So thank you team. I love the game. I'll be back to playing once the update roles out and the story continues.

It's a good game but at the same time there are a lot of flaws to it. When getting reputation, it takes a long time just to get to the next storyline and the storylines are so short which makes it disappointing and aggravating because you've waited for a long time. As far customization goes, it's 5/10. It's good but its minimal and costly. I hope the devs put some more time and effort to the story line and customization and give it more depth and detail.

I really like the game. Nice graphic, nice story and cool characters. The only real complain that I have is that the consultation with clients is slowing everything down terribly. I have 4 chairs and the two shampoo bowls, but one of the is 90% of the time empty and one of my barbers/stylists is always there doing "nothing" and waiting for the consultation to finish. My suggestion would be to make it faster or having the opportunity to upgrade the desk to do 2 of them at the time

UPDATE: Seems like after the recent update this issue was fixed and deserves the 5 star rating. Really like the game. Also really like that the characters have stories attached to them. Only problem is the barbers and customers gets stuck in the chairs and I have to reboot the game for it to work right. Get frustrating when I have to do this ever few minutes.

Want to say 5 stars but, I have one issue that I'm currently facing. I play these idle games often, and learn the algorithm to play smoothly and effectively. I'm in the early start of the game where I need to launch an ad. I already maxed it out and meant to launch it but didn't. Now the game refuses to let me continue until I follow the tutorial. I figured the system would automatically register it but was wrong. I'll wait for an update to fix this or I'm deleting it if the response isn't soon.

This game is great. The art is good and the characters and stories are a good way to keep the game feeling fresh and interesting. I just wish there was more to do maybe add a set of daily objectives or long term goals for players that have gotten the maximum amount of reputation. The game is pretty short and we haven't gotten a update in a long time which makes the game feel like progression has completely stopped. Like many other reviewers I don't see the point of keeping the app installed.

Really enjoy this game. HOWEVER there has been multiple times where I will open the app, and see the money accumulated and I want to 2x with an add. The add won't pop up to do so and I'm forced to close the game out and when I reopen, ALL of the money that accumulated is gone. Then I'm left with the amount I had 4 hours ago after upgrading everything. Which is no money at all. I don't really leave reviews but this is something I had to say because it is SO frustrating!!!

Games pacing is really slow right off the bat from the way it does reputation to progress the story for any sort of building, or real game play. As you wait for reputation to build there's nothing to do but sit there and watch the screen. Other than extremely slow the game is fine, haven't had any issues running it or any bugs. Just wish their was something to do other wait looking at the screen, especially in a tycoon game.

It's a nice idle game, not many complaints. But really don't like when you're allowed 3 design options for each item & they're all dramatically diff aesthetics so makes it hard to mix and match items well. But the main thing that I don't like is once you can buy a new haircut/beard option, it takes a lot of money to unlock and 80% of clients will then come in asking for that haircut immediately. Therefore messing up efficiency and money making potential until you can actually unlock it fully.

I've never experienced an idle game that actually had storyline progression, and I definitely enjoy that aspect. It's not in any way, shape, or form pay to play. Ads are completely optional without numerous unwanted pop-ups. I DO think it would be neat to implement an in game clock to see your open hours, but being able to see the progression of daylight to nighttime is a nice attribute. All around, fantastic idle game. Also, love that your romantic interest isn't limited to just one gender!

Overall, I've enjoyed the game a lot. It's a fun idle game, no surprise since they always do well with idle games. However, it's been a while since new content has been released, and I'm slowly losing interest which sucks since I want to keep moving with the story. Additionally, there are a lot of inefficiencies within the game that makes it seem less realistic and poorly simulates a barber shop. No one is buying products from the side shelves and barbers can only use reception one at a time.
