The lady who cut my sons hair was named Jordan . Everything was going good till , I noticed how horrible she was cutting my sons hair . Literally had to correct her on cleaning my sons edge up on one side . Like she was about to leave my son looking crappy . This haircut was not worth $50 bucks . Made my sons edge up look so tacky ! Land the fade was literally one of the worse fades I have ever seen ! I still tipped you $5 to not be an A hole ! But I won't be bringing my kid to your Chair again . Update : to the owner who replied , if you think this is a clean edge up , you gotta be outta your mind . I've been there once before and had Anthony cut my sons hair and he was as legit as they get . Why would I need to remind her to finish my sons edge up ? Or finish the haircut , she was about to leave my son looking messed up even more ? I will take my business elsewhere read more

Cutthroat - Horrible edge up by Jordan - Barbers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Adele on Washington Great stylist Nailed it on our first appointment . Highly recommend her. Armando Alaniz read more

Update: I thought they were easy going. Ha was I wrong. Do not be late or they will flat out fire you as a customer. I was late for my appointments 3 or 4 times in 1 year coming every 2 weeks. On my last time I was catching an attitude from the front desk person so I mirrored the attitude and gave it back. Mind you I was called and asked to be moved around by them on an appointment I set several times. Also barber was frequently a few minutes late over her dog and I never minded or said anything bc I get it. So here we are my 4th time to be late and they refuse to call anyone and ask if they could come later like they had done with me in the past. So I'm frustrated but thinking ok no big deal I'll come tomorrow. WRONG. The barber texts me and says they are charging me for a full haircut and that Cutthroat is probably not a good fit for me to get my haircut at. Before you ask the question I regularly tipped in the mid 20% range above my $55 dollar haircut. Obviously I had a problem with paying $55 for NOT getting a haircut. So I pushed back. In the end they dropped the $55 charge but fired me as a customer. lol All good I found a good spot on 18th St. read more

Been going to this spot for almost a year and very satisfied with the haircut every time. I go to Enrique and he definitely knows how to give a good haircut and keep me looking fresh. The location has a great atmosphere and very welcoming. Lots of different barbers to choose from. Nice bonus is having a coffee shop right next door and other good shops close by. read more

I have been here nearly a dozen times over a couple of years. The staff is great! I have had haircuts from at least four different barbers, each one great! Ashley is now my go-to; she even cut my hair for my wedding. Love going each time read more

Yesterday, I had an appointment at 12pm for beard and hair and I was late 12 minutes. When I arrived they asked me to choose only one service to which I declined and so they charged me a cancellation fee. I'm usually not the kind of customer who likes to give bad reviews but honestly what happened later was even worse. Instead of maybe a call or something like "we apologize come another day and we'll make it up for you, the owner/manager posted a reply to my review that said I'm not the kind of customer they want? Just because I was 2 minutes late according to his policy. I ended up in another place which was a lot nicer and was treated very well without rushing me or looking at their clock. I wish you good luck with your business! read more

Go to Vincent! Best fade. Most stylist don't understand I want a tapered short cut since I'm a cis gender woman. I go everytime I can when in town. read more

Cutthroat in the heights can't be beat! Great vibes & great barbers. Go see Micheal & he'll get you right. Great barber & really nice guy.

Great shop, have been many times, great service from the booking to the front desk, music, to the barber,,,,but during the power outage from the storm on 5/16/24 I was in need of a clean up for my daughters engagement party,,the owner was there cleaning up and I just asked if any of her locations happen to be open,,,she said no but asked what I needed, with her cordless clippers she helped me out and saved the day. This type of service is why I will always be a customer, she didn't have to take her time to do so. I appreciated it more than she knows. I hope to those reading this will go check them out and enjoy the great experience that will definitely be given. You will also walk out looking great! read more

Tagged along with my husband, he had his hair buzz trimmed and his beard trimmed. Staff was friendly and took us in right when his appointment was scheduled for, no wait time. They have comfortable couches and seating for those not getting their hair trimmed. Staff wears masks at all times and so do customers (except when getting their facial hair trimmed). The space is very open, clean and nicely decorated. My husband liked his cut and would probably come back if they had a location in our city! read more

My bf came in for a haircut and a beard trim and this place was amazing! He can't stop talking/showing off his beard to me and his friends because of it. But I am so glad he found a perfect place because he had been searching around for a long time. Brandy was his person and she did such a great job in helping him out with the fade and the trim. He went in with no idea of how he envisions his style, but Brandy helped him throughout the entire appointment. The place was very nicely decorated and busy, which is expected for a popular place. He will definitely be coming back here! read more

Whiskey was good and the receptionist was nice. Haircut was crap. Had hair 4" below my chin and told him I wanted 1" taken off so I could still have a low ponytail. 4 inches off later, I can't pull it back into a ponytail and it's extremely uneven. Beard trim looks good except for how uneven it is. I'm going to have to fix it myself. A total rip off for the price paid. I even paid extra for a 'Master Barber' (Kyle). Don't go here! Pay less for a better cut somewhere else. read more

My husband went to the one on 19th and they gave him a bad haircut. He was too embarrassed to say anything so he just left. I will post a pic. read more

I'm new to Houston and it's been a struggle finding a barber that did the job the way I wanted it. I can honestly say that Francisco did a perfect job! I'm extremely satisfied with my cut. If not the best, one of the best fades I've had in my life. I'll be a regular for sure. read more

My husband has tried this Cutthroat multiple times and every time it's inconsistent. They cut his hair too short most of the time, even after reminding them not to. For the same price of level 2 stylists, you can get a much better stylish men's haircut in Los Angeles. And in Los Angeles, they are consistently good, no matter who you go to. I also have a thing about chatty hair stylists. Because a haircut is such a big deal, could you please focus on your job? Disappointed time and time again. Unfortunately, in Houston, there aren't a lot of great barbers. read more

Hannah is by far the best! She makes you feel good after getting out of her chair and till the next cut! By far the best conversationalist! I would recommend her as your first and only barber! She is worth your hard earned money! P.S. Do they serve anything other than beer? Jw read more

They don't take walk-ins (as this Yelp page says they do) and they don't answer the phone. So I would recommend making sure you make an appointment before you waste your time driving to the shop like I did. read more

Kyle was awesome when cutting my 6yo son's hair. It was his first hair cut and very emotional for... well me, his mom. Lol. Kyle was patient and made my son very comfortable. My son was smiling or conversing the entire time. We'll definitely be back in the Spring! read more

Despite being a longtime customer of cutthroat barber I will no longer return after being profiled by its owner and told never to come back. This likely arose after I got my beard trimmed and almost walked out by accident being distracted on my phone. I paid for the service on the spot and profusely apologized for my distraction, even though my card is on file and they could've charged my card if I in fact had accidentally walked out. I thought all was cool until I get an email saying they no longer want me coming back because I'm not "a fit." That's usually code for racial discrimination and I will not stand for that. This was a place where I routinely got my beard service and paid generous tips. It's sad that not even my barber seemed to have defended my character. They have lost a longtime customer and I will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

I'm a diva when it comes to my hair and have only gone to high-end salons for the past few years. I needed a cut on relatively short notice and booked an appointment with Brandon at Cutthroat. He not only gave me great suggestions but is a true artist when it comes to the fade. I will no longer overpay at a salon when I can get a much better cut at Cutthroat as well as a chill environment. You get that nostalgia of an old school barber shop but with a contemporary, trendy feel. From what I've seen, every barber in there really knows what they are doing and they enjoy doing it. I personally would recommend Brandon because he will talk through exactly what you want and he will make great suggestions. He really understands hair types. You won't be disappointed. read more

I haven't even had the privilege of walking inside this establishment since they've now cancelled my second appointment! I don't think this is how you make customers happy. read more

Perhaps one of the worst customer service experiences I can recall. The long and short of it, I attempted to book an appointment by phone on numerous occasions without an answer, I left a voicemail to book an appointment and it wasn't returned, I booked an appointment online and due to family coming into town for the holidays, I went online to reschedule the appointment for a later time on the following day, the website didn't work properly and I couldn't reschedule. After missing the appointment that I tried to reschedule numerous times, my credit card was charged $55. I called this location yet again, and finally spoke with a human being, explained my situation, even offered to eat the $55 charge for a discount on a new appointment -!: was told, "I will talk to the barber and get back to you." As you've probably guessed, no one ever contacted me, Cutthroats took my money, and I'm certain if they respond to this post, they'll point to their "no-call/no-show" policy, despite the fact that it's nearly impossible based on my experience to call or contact anyone at cutthroats and get a response. 1 star. (You've earned it). read more

I had been going to the 19th street location for a while and was very pleased, but I won't be going back. My barber told me that he had Covid recently and also was unvaccinated the entire time I had been seeing him. He obviously doesn't care about the health and safety of his clients, and obviously the owners don't require the barbers to follow common public health guidelines. My last appointment was "Cancelled due to Covid." Clean up your act folks, you could be killing an innocent customer with your own selfish stupidity. read more

Took me a few weeks to book an appointment, because the demand here is so high. Ended up having to work late, so I missed what would have been my first appointment. I wasn't able to use my phone to give notice so I was a "no-call, no-show" which in Cutthroat land means you get charged the full-price of what you reserved. It's in the small-print, I have no recourse, I get it.. but this isn't a common practice. I'm here to tell you, if it's even a remote possibility that the same thing could happen to you, just don't go here. Overpriced, self-important, and impossible to book on short notice. Take my advice and just got to Bird's Barbershop down the street. Walked in, got my haircut and beard trimmed perfectly by a former Cutthroat employee, and it cost me less (with $15 tip included) than not showing up at Cutthroat did. If you ever allowed walk-ins you might not have to screw over your customers with stricter policies than my Doctor's office. Enjoy your $45 for absolutely nothing ya arrogant hipsters! read more

Walking towards the barber shop when I get a call letting me know they cancelled the appointment. I went out of my way to make this appointment, and even scheduled it several days before. I would have appreciated a heads up. Not 5 minutes before my appointment. read more

The only reason I am giving this place one star is because zero is not an option. I scheduled a 10 am appointment with Rafael. I arrived promptly at 9:55 am and was asked to wait ten minutes for him to finish with another customer. Three other customers walked in after me and were seated in chairs and had their hair cut in the forty five minutes I waited. At 10:35 I asked how much longer and was told another ten minutes. I left the shop without getting a cut. This place may have a good feel for a barber shop but the employees were totally unprofessional. I would not suggest this shop unless you have several hours to kill during your day. read more

Jonny is the best! I highly recommend this place. They offer beer and other drinks while you wait. The music and ambience are chill.

I was searching for a new barbershop and came across this place here. Cutthroat is an average barbershop at best. I really don't understand why I spent $35 for a low bald fade that wasn't even a low fade and definitely not even bald at all. $35 dollars for a rushed haircut that gets finished in UNDER 30 minutes time? What a waste of money. I'm pretty unsatisfied. They didn't offer me a beverage like everyone is is claiming, they didn't even wash my hair to get all of the trimmings out of it? Wtf am I paying that much for?!? I have no issue paying a good amount of money for a quality haircut and service, but they do not give good service. They couldn't even change out the dull razor blade when they shaved my neck? That has to be really sanitary. I more than likely will not be back and I wouldn't recommend. read more

Cutthroat - Not really a low fade and it definitely doesn't go to bald at the bottom. - Barbers Near Me - Houston, Texas

I wouldn't suggest trying to book appointments with either location. Customer service is terrible. It's so bad that I didn't even get a haircut because well.....they had to cancel my apt less than a day before because Brent made a mistake with the apts. I had high hopes that I would see an awesome barber with several years of experience since I had to book my original apt over 3 weeks ago. Instead I was asked to either reschedule (3weeks later), get a cut with someone I didn't want or inconvenience myself/work to get in with another barber whom I still didn't want. Completely unprofessional and disrespectful (canceling my apt via text). Oh and Brent did nothing to render the situation, I had to email and make phone calls myself just to find all this out. I do not recommend this place. read more

Michael is great!! He does a great job with my fiancé's hair. The ambiance of the shop is great too. Everyone is having so much fun.

Had good experience the first time I went there, but this time Waited for 20 minutes past my appointment time... Finally just got frustrated and left ... Totally understand that sometimes things happen and people run behind - but a little acknowledgment that they are behind would be amazing when you move 10 things in your schedule to get a hair cut... not to mention I get charged full price for the haircut if I had been running that late. hmm. read more

I had a 9AM appointment, but was running late due to traffic. They were able to reschedule me to 10am without any hassle. Brandin gave me one of the best haircuts/ beard trims I've had. He was meticulous and friendly. Would absolutely come back, and recommend to anyone looking for an excellent barber. Coffee next door at Boomtown is also excellent. Thank you, Brandin! read more

Highly recommend going to Cutthroat. The shop is legit! Dreyvon is the man. He Took the time to listen to what I wanted in a haircut and was an overall great experience at the shop. Definitely will be back. read more

Was charged 25$ for a late arrival because I got confused about the time. They sent me a reminder 24h before and mistakenly mentioned that sent another one today. I believe it's fair to charge a late fee, but not the full price of the service. Do not recommend because of that. read more

What I liked: 1) Nice buzz cut for a fair price 2) Not cluttered like most barbershops 3) offered a beer while I waited 4) friendly and engaging barber What I did not like 1) Did not get seated until 15 min after my appointment 2) Did not do "flat razor" shave around neck and ears like most barbers do...look at their logo??? They used an electric razor 3) Did not offer to trim eyebrows (really only applies to people over 40 like me) 4) barber did not clean hair off of chair from previous customer. 5) waiting area was cramped and had really small seats to sit in. Houston seriously lacks quality barbershops...this is one of the better ones....they get 3 stars for Houston...other cities, would be less. read more

If you're looking for a fresh cut, you've come to the right place. No matter your style of hair they'll be able to hook you up. This location is in a cool part of town too. I'd recommend John or Carlos if you come to this location. John is my barber and I've seen Carlos' work, both are sick . The only bad thing is that it's usually gets books pretty fast, so schedule your appointment at least 3-4 days in advance. read more

Cutthroat - The head office - Barbers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Went there for the first time a few weeks ago and had my first straight razor/blade shave before my buddy's wedding. Meticulous attention to detail and by far the closest shave I've ever had. @$40 it probably won't be a frequent thing, but definitely a nice treat. Tried them this time for a haircut and couldn't be happier. I tried two different barbers at the new Bird's Barbershop and it was not up to par with the Austin locations. I'm confident in saying I'll be a regular customer at Cutthroat. (Crosspost from google) read more

Yep - been going here a while... First at the pop-up shop at Manready Mercantile on 19th with Carlos; then to Washington; and now back in the Heights. What can I say, other than just about everything is right in this joint. Fair cuts; fair coin; cool people and just that long-enough-time to shut out the crazies and relax at the shop. Went in today for a cut and a shave to close out Mo'Vember, and Billy Stump took good care of me. The guy rocks. ROCKS. Don't do yourself short - Cutthroat, as often as needed. read more
