We specialize in men’s and children’s hair - from fades to shags, short to long, we are highly skilled in every type of haircut and constantly learning new styles just for you!
Our Kids Zone - with playroom, cartoons, and fun kids chairs - ensures your little one has a great experience. We pride ourselves on patience and working with families.
Along with great men’s cuts, we also do Hot Straight Shaves - the ultimate “Man Spa” experience, lasting at least 30-45 min and leaving you refreshed and smooth.
Marisa (owner/operator) has been a Barber in Abby for almost 16 yrs. Her staff are incredibly talented and offer superb customer service - there’s a reason we get rave reviews! Stop in and see how we can take care of your family today! Appointments recommended.
Our shaves are an amazing experience in relaxation for Men. Approximately 30-45min, our shaves start with a skin and hair assessment, followed by soothing hot towels to soften and prepare the face. Your Barber will determine what products to use (hot lather, oil, or creams ). Using a straight blade you will enjoy a close clean shave, followed by more hot towels to clean and cleanse the skin. If necessary a cold towel or cold cream is used at the finish to close your pores and leave you feeling refreshed and clean.
Giving your child the best haircut experience can be a difficult task for some. The haircut itself can sometimes be a scary or wonderful, so here are some tips for parents or caregivers to get you prepared:
• Call and make your appointment letting us know it's a “first experience”
• Talk with your child about what's going to happen for a few days before the appointment
• Photos are welcome!!!!
• Our clippers sometimes sound like “remote control airplanes” and can feel “wiggly” on there skin
• Bring a favourite snack , something in little pieces (eg: fruit snacks, fishy crackers)
• Allow your child to see how fun “daddy’s” or “uncle’s” haircut is
• If you know your child will be upset please let us know ahead of time so we can prepare better for you
• Sometimes if your young child is going to be very upset, a large towel to almost “swaddled” them can make them feel safe and keep them snuggled with you for the haircut. This is only in most “upset” instances!
Please help us accommodate your families! We want to ensure your family & others have the best experience possible here at our barbershop!
If your child has a hard time with haircuts please advise us ahead of time so we can make a special time just for you and your family.
We can accommodate kids that are very upset by special appointment only. We want to give them the extra time and love they need.
Any questions or concerns please email Marisa - marisaoborne35@gmail.com
We at Shear Performance understand kids can be unpredictable but we do our best to give them the best haircut experience we can!
Thanks Families for your confidence in us for so many years!! We love watching your families grow!
As a business owner I just wanted to extend my appreciation for the service I was given today. Your staff was extremely helpful, respectful and very engaging. From one owner to another thank you so much for the experience, and you will see me back again shortly. Your business name has been given out to many of my family and friends already. Thanks for the service and the wonderful job your staff did with my hair

Took our son to Shear Performance for his very first haircut! It was such a special experience! He’s been back for several cuts since & loves the toys, special chair & watching Max & Ruby while he gets his trim
- Ashleigh
Marisa is the ONLY person that our son will let touch his hair. She always does a fantastic job and I recommend the shop to everyone
- Cass
Love the gang at Shear Performance ! Marisa and Susan and Alysia have cut my ASD son’s hair since he was a baby ... He used to cry, but They have now become his go to girls and we wouldn’t go anywhere else!
- Amy
It took my son a bit to warm up to any place but after his friends started to tell him about the place with the quad and the color hair spray he was sold!! And to be able to watch paw patrol??! What kid wouldn’t want that?! I’ve been very impressed with the patience I’ve seen as I’m sure it’s not easy cutting kids hair!
- Carla
It has been amazing watching my son go from hating getting his haircut and screaming the whole time to having him excited to sit on the tractor and get blue hair!! Thanks Marisa and Susan:) He’s in need of another hair cut so that $5 would be greatly appreciated!!
- Christy
I’ve been bringing my daughter to you since her first cut at 14 mos. Always a positive experience with a nice looking cut. I’ll be bringing my son in for his first soon! Thanks so much
- Darcy
Harrison loves getting his hair cut by Marisa!!! Always comes out looking good!!!
- Jessica
I have been bringing my son to shear performance to see Marissa for many years and am always very happy with her professionalism and great cuts. Ive brought my son to many other places before Shear performance and have always had terrible cuts. Marissa gets it perfect every time. It is also a very kid friendly environment. Brought my Daughter there in the last few months as well and was very happy with her haircut. Thanks Marissa
- Alanna
Where do I start? Shear Performance Barbershop has been our first choice for a very long time! From the time my kids were babies, they got to sit on tractors and quads and the staff at Shear Performance made our experience not only enjoyable but my kids felt safe! I love the picture wall with all the kids pics and my kids love the video game center!! I've almost left them there a few times just to run some errands. Hats off to Shear Performance Barbershop! We won't go anywhere else! Oh and Marisa Oborne is always our top choice for stylist
- Jackie
My son had his first haircut there and was so impressed with the patience of the stylist! We will be coming back for sure!
- Karly
My sons first professional haircut was done here and he loved it! We loved the detail and professionalism in the cut, very impressive!! Love it and definitely will be back
- Diana
Both my kids love getting there haircut at Shear Performance Barbershop. They get so excited when they know that they have an appointment. My son loves his hair tattoos from Marisa and my daughter loves watching Max and Ruby while getting her hair cut. She also loves getting the sparkles sprayed in her hair after she is done. In my daughters own words, “I want sprinkles!!” See you soon Marisa!!
- Michelle
Absolutely only place we have taken our son for his hair cuts, best service and worth the drive across town!
- Mark
Marisa, you do a fantastic job and are so patient with the kids Thank you for making it an enjoyable experience for my daughter.
- Amber
I have been going to Shear for a very long time and they have always offered great service and a great hair cut. Thanks to Marisa and the rest of the girls.
- Ron
My daughter is still talking about getting her hair cut while she was riding the tractor. She absolutely loved it. My son had his first haircut when we were there as well, and even though he was extremely wiggly, his haircut came out great ... we have gotten lots of complements on the haircuts. The only thing I didn't like about the experience is that my daughter got extremely sticky from the lollipop... lol. Thank you ladies!
- Pamela
My son had his first hair cut there. The staff were great and Jakob really enjoyed sitting on the tractor playing with the dinosaur toys! Can't wait to go back! :)
- Amanda
I took my three year old twins and my five year old to Shear Performance. I live in Sardis and have not found a "kid friendly" experience for hair cuts. Shear Performance is well worth the drive to Abbotsford, the kids keeping talking about the cool color she put in their hair (washes out in the bath) and the sparkles in my little girl's hair. Highly recommended!

Barber for 15 years. Marisa has a unique gift for working with children’s hair. Through the years many children have come through our doors either scared of haircuts or have had bad experiences elsewhere and Marisa does her best to win them over or work towards a good haircut experience! Marisa is also highly skilled in Men’s fades and working towards offering straight razor shaves!
Susan has been in the industry for over 12 years! Specialized in Men's hair and Kids cuts. She can get the job done fast and right, while making the child feel comfortable and important! She cuts hair with clipper over comb (no guard) and scissor cuts without using the clipper. She hopes when you leave her chair you will feel you can handle anything life hands your way good or bad :) I look forward to meeting you, Susan
In the Salon/Barber industry for over 20 years Kelly has an incredible instinct for new styles and how they fit for each client! Kelly joined us after years of experience in Hawaii salons. She has amazing talent with color and grey coverage in all types of hair!
