Less than one star. Dirty, unprofessional and bad service. Avoid avoid avoid. The premises were unswept. The only 'barber' working was in his 50s and didn't have a clue how to cut hair. It was only when I got home I realised how bad the cut was and he'd taken chunks out of my hair. I'd have been able to do a better job myself, so if you don't want to have to shave your head when you get home, DO NOT GO HERE! this place should be shut down. read more

Been my usual barber for a while due to the convenient location and (previously) reasonable price. Every time I've gone in for the past year the prices have gone up but the quality just goes down. I was the only one there, when I walked in the barber was reading a paper - not exactly swamped. When cutting my hair half of his focus was on the tv show that was on, as a result the cut was uneven, rushed and like others have said, would have been better done myself. Also couldn't see a price board and he didn't tell me how much it was until after I asked. Avoid. read more

I had the worst hair cut of my life here!!! The guy who runs it should not be cutting hair, he didn't know what he was doing. He looked like he was making it up as he went along. He was practically shouting whilst cutting my hair, not paying attention! Just an awful and quite a stressful experience in its entirety. He made a few mistakes and he had cut my hair incorrectly, I told him that I wasn't happy he just stopped cutting my hair, turned really nasty and started arguing his case with me. There should be legislation to prevent people like this from cutting hair. This guy needs to close his shop and jump back into his bed because he's living in a dream world of he thinks he can cut hair. Disgusting! read more

I was in there yesterday, brilliant, found my new barber, alf the barber was really professional and took the time to know exactly what i was after, he was very funny and even though he really took his time to get it exactly right, the time passed to fast. Defo my best haircut. read more

By far the best place for men in Chester to get a haircut. No messing about just a good quality haircut done quickly which is what you want. The price is excellent especially as it's in the city centre and the shop is nice an welcoming. I always have my hair cut by the owner who is a great laugh and very chatty, not the usual banal conversation. Don't know why there are some poor reviews, maybe some peoples expectations are set too high - this a traditional barbers shop not a hairdressers - there is a difference! Give it a try. read more

This place is quite terrible. Had a haircut by the older fellow and its seriously a joke. I could of cut it myself better. Wasn't even close to being proffessional. Lob sided and looked like a character off dumb and dumber. After a week of being laughed at at work I decided I had to get the clippers out and shave my head. A real shame that places like this are aloud to get away with this. I have now found out that this place has a bit of a rep for being pretty terrible. A lesson learned the hard way I'm afraid. Pay that extra quid and get it done elsewhere. read more

Well what can i say, im gobsmacked at the bad review i never take time to write reviews but after using Brooklyn Barbers for the last 5 months and getting a service that i have never experienced before i thought it was only fair and well deserved.. my opinion is that there is certainly no rush and the hairdressers i have had Older gent and young lady were both very competent, make more than sure i was completely happy with the cut and style and this is from someone who spends a lot of time and money on my hair and appearance, they were great, friendly, enjoyed a laugh and even once the owner a nice lad offered me a drink whilst i waited as it was busy along with the other customers my little boy hates the barbers but asks can he go to Brooklyn for a trim, the staff are very good with him and make sure he is ok when my hair is being perfected. I can honestly say that i have never been happy with any Barbers before but i for one will not be going elsewhere!!! I do however suspect that this bad comment has been placed by someone on behalf of another local Barber's who is worried about what a great service Brooklyn offers. i would say the only way for anyone to find out is to try for themselves and i personally know you will not be disappointed :-) read more

when alfie and simon asked me to write a review on qype i was more than happy to do so, anything for the guys who have helped me achieve the hairstyle iv wanted for so long and other barbers have never quite got right.. Started using these guys just before Christmas i went to them with what i wanted (a bit of a quiffed comb over with no1 grade sides and the quiff pushed back, bit like beckham early this year) Other barbers had tried but have usually failed with the blend and getting my hair to grow that way. Alfie perfectly executed the blend and advised me to use some Brooklyn define hair product to help weigh my hair down whilst i was growing the quiff over, also to call in on a fortnightly basis to keep sides short and quiff in check, we even negotiated a discount for frequent visits Fair do's these guys know what they're talking about, my hair is exactly how i want it now and im a frequent user of the shop and their products.. a* chaps a* read more

Worst haircut ever! Literally made my girlfriend cry. I don't think the barber looked at my actual head more than five times as he was too busy chatting with the other lad working there. Just wanted a pretty standard scissor cut- shorter at the side and back, long on top, which he really didn't seem to understand and just cut willy-nilly all over my head, then started to use clippers after telling him I didn't want that! Despite him using the clippers I still managed to leave with strands of hair up to 5cm longer than the rest in random places. Didnt ask me if it was ok at the end, just said he was done and that was that. The older guy who cut my hair was grumpy and utterly impolite. Had to go an pay for another haircut somewhere else, and the guy there said I was the third person in that week coming to get a Brooklyns haircut fixed. Terrible service, terrible haircut! There are other places just as cheap where you can get an actual haircut! read more

For me, this is the only barber shop in town. As any other long-haired dudes will only too readily verify, hairdressers, as a rule, will destroy your luscious locks. Ask them to take an inch, and that's what they'll leave you with, putting your glasses back on to be greeted by the image of that kid from Busted; oh wait, it's just me, except with some crazy 'fashionable' do. Damn you!Rant over. At Brooklyn you can totally rely on these guys; they'll do just what you ask them to, leave you with the haircut you requested and they also have some great banter going. Thank you, Brooklyn. read more

When I went to the brooklyn barbers I was happy to see a new cheaper and nice looking barbers in chester. However, upon getting my hair cut I can see that you get what you pay for. Having said that I would rather of paid for them to leave my hair alone. I ended up with a horrific bowl cut that left me looking like a bullied child in a playground from the 90's. The shaved parts were pretty dodgy too with tufts left that were clearly visible. Suffice to say I left wearing a hat and a cloud over my head! I wont be going back. read more

I took my son to this barbers as recommended by a colleague who frequently takes his kids there, it was a great experience for my son who normally dislikes having his haircut. The two guys made us feel very welcome and jack even got a lollipop after his haircut (unfortunatly i never ;) ) a great place to take kids, thumbs up from me and Jack read more
