Bob is a very sweet barber who is GREAT with kids. He fit us in when my son cut his own hair. I highly recommend him. He works out of his home garage. If you support local businesses, then this is one to support! Call him and he will give you his new address off Layton Drive. Cash or Check only read more

Bob moved from this location. But his new location is only 5 mins away. Call him (703) 501-5510 to get direction. I strongly suggest you call to make appointment. This was my first time getting a cut from Bob. He's a great old guy. Made me feel comfortable and asked how I wanted it cut. I will be making my next appointment in 3 weeks... read more

Bob is fantastic -- i very much suggest calling and making an appointment. His shop is clean and he is friendly, quick, and efficient. He gave me exactly what i asked for and at a great price. I will definitely be returning. read more

Top notch all around. Bob is friendly, reasonably priced, speedy, and best of all, a talented and meticulous barber. Highly recommend!

I've lived in Springfield since 2011 and I've always been eyeing up this old 15-story tower. Having seen Bob's van outside when passing by, I knew there was a barber shop on the 7th floor. On my way home from work today, I finally stopped by to see what it was all about. This is your classic barber shop. While the tower itself is quite old and in need of maintenance, Bob's is bright and airy with a great view to the south. There are four chairs and mirrors all over. It's well lit and immaculately clean. There is a comfortable row of chairs for waiting with magazines and a game area for children. Caroline gave me a beard trim and a quick trim around my hair line (I have a long ponytail, so just tidying things up). I was in and out in under 20 minutes and it set me back $12 including tip since it was just a trim. I'm glad I stopped in and I will be back on a regular basis. Sorry, I didn't take any pictures this time, but I will next time! read more

I've been taking my son here for over a year and Bob is great. It's tough to cut a 2 and 3-year-old's hair, but he is patient and efficient with my wriggly kiddo. $16 for the haircut, plus a lollipop. He has kids' books and some toys there too to help and/or for accompanying siblings. I tried going to a kids' haircut place once with those fun chairs and TV screens and honestly it was more expensive and they didn't do as good of a job. You can't beat the price or the quality here. **Note, he's no longer at Sola Salon; he's moved locations nearby so call for an updated address. read more

Convenient, fast, economical and friendly. Was in and out in no time. Recommend him to everyone.

Bob's originally opened in the Concord shopping center in 1962. Bob, Carol and Leo recently move Bob's back to the Concord shopping center and are now part of the Sola Salon Studios, suite 25. Bob and Carol have been cutting my hair since 1967 and I've never had a complaint. They've adapted to my hair styles throughout the years, and occasionally have suggested something new. Hope you find their personal and pleasant demeanor as welcoming as I do. read more

See all

Amazing hair cuts! Definitely recommend them for all Barber needs! Super fair price also $20.00! CASH ONLY! Carol always does and awesome job for me! read more

The definition of a barber shop. Magazines, easy going time, great to talk too. Been going here close to 10 years and always happy. And they been cutting hair a long time and know what they are doing. They do a great job on beard trimming Cash only though. Be prepared read more

Bob's very personable and easy to talk to but I got a jacked up fade both times I went. I gave him a second chance after the first because he was nice but never again. read more

Bob's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

I've been getting my hair cut by Bob for years now. The first time I went there, after my old barber shop closed, my wife and my mother separately, told me that was the best haircut I've ever had. 'nuff said. Even though I go to Bob, there are many people that come in and ask specifically for Bob's wife Carolyn, or Jim or Leo. I have no doubt that they all would give a great cut. There is so much experience in that place. Make no mistake, this is not your local Hair Cuttery. This is a barber shop in the best sense of the word. As long as Bob is cutting hair, I will be his customer. If he ever chooses to go or retire, I'll probably just go to Jim or Leo. read more

Bob and his wife are nice as could be and gave a really good haircut. Easy to talk to so conversation is not forced at all. Great experience! read more

I can't tell you how long I've been looking for a legitimate barber shop. Not a salon. Just a couple of guys, some straight-up barber chairs, and a striped pole. Bob, who actually is the Namesake of the business was quick, professional and friendly. And he knows how to use a straight razor. Now, the location is a little unusual for a barber shop (7th floor of an office building) and the building looks a bit shady and very shabby but his shop is clean and bright. I've finally found "my barber". Seriously. Oh, and, he's actually open at 6am. Yelp has the hours wrong. read more

They have decent hours. My beard got hacked off in the end product is not symmetrical. It was a nice shave.

My boyfriend has been getting his haircut here for a little over a year now. He loves it!

I find this thru yelp. Bob seems to be very friendly and understand how I want my hair cut. Although he is people friendly, his mastery of hair cut skill seems more likely average barber in my opinion. This is old style barber shop I recommend as long as if you leave your expectation of hair salon behind. The location is upon 7th floor that you need to seek for, but not difficult to find it. The parking in the building is for residence, but street parking is available. The price seems to be comparable. He charge me adult $16. **** read more

Been going to Bob for haircuts for more then 20 years, no barber shop I have been to has ever come close, He and his wife are completely just down to earth and enjoyable to see- thats what keeps me coming back year after year.. thanks Bob . read more

This an old Springfield legion. I used to get my hair cut a stones throw away from the current location going back to the mid 60s and some of the same folks work there today! I wear my hair a little longer then the classic military style and I was worried if I would get cut too short, but my barber listened to what I asked for and she cut to order. I will definitely be going back for my next cut and bringing my son as well! read more

It was my first time getting a haircut at Bob's Barber Shop. Bob and his wife are friendly. Unlike some barber shops that are in a rush, Bob takes his time well and the way he cuts my hair is perfect. I will definitely come back again! read more

We brought my 9 month old son here for his first haircut and I also got a haircut. It was a great experience. Bob and the other barbers are very friendly and the haircuts were great. Bob does something special for first haircuts. He'll take a before and after picture and then make a cute certificate with a lock of hair for you to keep. That's a nice thing to do. Now, Bob's is in an old building on the 7th floor. The parking garage is currently having some maintenance done--so it looks a little sketchy, but don't let that deter you. Bob's barber shop has been here for a long time. It was kind of fun noticing how the barber chairs themselves were vintage. Bob's also does not take credit cards, but that's not that big of a deal. I highly recommend Bob's Barber Shop! read more

Bob is a fantastic barber. He really takes care of you and still gets you on your way in a timely fashion.

Both of my boys went there for their first haircuts and we continue to go back. It is a small locally owned shop. Very small, very friendly and family oriented. Not fancy as it is an old fashioned barber shop. No TVs or fancy decorations. For all first haircuts, they give you a certificate in a plastic sleeve with a before and after picture and they put the fresh cut hair in the sleeve as well. No extra charge for the certificate or the smiles that they give. Excellent choice for all who might be in the market for their little one's first cut or a new place with friendly faces. Here is their website for address and phone numbers. http://www.bobthespringfieldbarber.com/ read more

Bob has been providing haircuts in Springfield for more than 4 decades now. Their shop is on the 7th floor of the Springfield Tower Center, next to the Holiday Inn. I received my very first haircut after moving here in the mid 70's. Bob (and the others) are delightful and a bit old fashioned. It's a very pleasant atmosphere and I highly recommend. You should give him try. He's been in business for a very long time and that's do to his professionalism and quality work... He does a good Donald Duck impression too. That's one of the reasons we loved going to him when we were kids... Long Live Bob the Barber :-) read more

Bob's Barber Shop - Bob (top center) and the rest of the gang... - Barbers Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

Bob's gets our highest recommendation. Our three year old son hates to have his hair cut. It is clear that Bob and his team have dealt with young children a time or two. Bob was patient and kind, and gave our boy a wonderful haircut. He had toys, lollipops, and did magic tricks; although our son still cried during his haircut, he was laughing by the end and gave Bob a hug on the way out the door. We'll definitely be back. The shop is located on the 7th floor of the building next to Bob Evans, they also give discounts on weekdays. Prices are very reasonable. read more

I remember going to Bob as a kid, just dropped by to get my hair cut in their 7th floor location and he's still got it! Thanks Bob, I'll definitely visit whenever I'm back in the area. read more

Now I am 6'10", with a long face. My hair is wavy and curls after it gets to long. I have gone to several barber shops trying to get a hair cut that is not to short. I always tell them that I don't want it to short. Bob was the first one to get it right! he has 53 years of experience. I recommend him for sure! read more
