I've since moved, but when I lived in the neighborhood, this was my go-to shop. These guys are great at what they do, and I always left looking fantastic (a real feat when you're as naturally gorgeous as I. Kidding kidding, jk lol). While it's not a cheap or rapid service, the barbers here do excellent work. And you can't rush quality. Lastly, I'll say that the crew here is fun, friendly, and everyone has a great sense of humor. Check 'em out. read more

Had my first haircut here this week with Austin and it looks awesome. Highly recommend!

Dropped in for a cut but they were booked up. They had a student (Austin) and they gave me that option. I said let's give it a go! He was great and the guys were super helpful supporting him. The vibe was great, the shop is super cool. Walked out with a great summer cut. Highly recommend. read more

Solid place to get a haircut. Happy that it is in the neighborhood. I appreciate the easy online booking system.

I wanted to let everyone know that Jeremy is an absolute gem. Total pro, kind and talented. My wife and I are both happy customers. Major shout out! read more

While the haircut was okay, the barber used offensive language multiple times throughout the session. He referred to things as "gay" and "retarded". This might be okay to some, but for those that might be looking for a safe space or want to support establishments that create them, Dexter Ave is not the place for you. read more

Jeremy provides quite a premium experience. Best haircut I've had, walked in looking shaggy and walked out feelin like a million bucks! Will definitely be back read more

Ten stars. I gave myself a bad haircut (oops) and needed it fixed, so my wife booked me at Dexter Ave, which is right down the street from us. I like the mid century, 50's style haircuts and it's sometimes hard to get it done right. but Kevin at Dexter Ave was perfect. He instantly understood what was needed. He didn't talk my ear off and ask a ton of questions like some barbers do, he just gave me a great haircut with no BS. On our way out, he complimented me on my Smiths T-shirt! I love this guy. I will be back on the regular. Can'T say enough good things about this place. read more

Kevin, the owner of this shop, is a genius. He has cut my hair since 2011 and I wouldn't dream of going elsewhere. He is meticulous with his work, which tells me he loves what he does. He's always in great mood and very upbeat. He's always able to interpret my gibberish and turn it into exactly what I wanted. Best haircuts ever. I mean, how many barbers can say that people stop their clients to compliment them on their fade and ask who did it?! And he hand picks his staff so that he can ensure they will deliver the level of service and quality of cut that he expects. GO SEE THEM! you won't regret it. read more

See all

Highly recommend Hannah. New to the area and I needed a barber i was comfortable with, shes super fun and can fade you out perfectly. Nice shop, friendly barbers, parking isnt bad, boom with Hannah! yours truly, dude who is picky about his hair. read more

Keven is a great barber, however, they are not requiring patrons to wear masks. COVID cases are increasing and in no way should anyone have to sit in a small room with multiple people not wearing one. Take responsibility for the health of your patrons and yourselves more seriously. read more

This is a real barbershop!! None of that Salonica bullshit!! The barbers are all cool as hell and talk shit to each other just like a barbershop should be!! I read a review from a girl on here complaining about foul language haha!! It's a barbershop,not a hair salon!! The new owner Josh is a super cool dude and a great barber,they're all great barbers!! read more

I'm really happy. I've had two haircuts here so far. One from Kevin and one from Ross I believe. Both really cool guys that gave great haircuts. Atmosphere very chill and welcoming. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Josh is awesome! Best cut my son has gotten in Seattle. If you have a particular teen this is the spot to go. Thank you!

Got one haircut here previously by the same kid, was good enough first time around so I figured why not walk in again. Terrible mistake!!! I've been growing my hair out for a few months and this guy ruined it with one visit. I asked for a high fade with a 1 on the sides and got what looks like a taper with a 3. The cut is so uneven on both sides I look like I have Down syndrome. Long story short you get what you pay for I'll go back to rainier beach for a skin tight fade from Jamil at JStylez or my dawg Eric at Squire for the clipper work. I appreciate they take walk ins but this haircut is so trash I wouldn't even accept it if it was free. Do yourself and look elsewhere. These guys are decent for doing run of the mill avg looking Amazon white guy haircuts. Haven't seen any super impressive fades or clipper work yet. read more

Maureen is such a gem! I always ask barbers to use scissors rather than clippers because it makes my hair less frizzy, and Maureen keeps it real every time! Convenient location, comfy chairs, not too expensive for a solid haircut...I'm a fan and will be back. read more

Worst service ever!!! Staff is very unprofessional. I made a 5:15pm appointment online and arrived on time. The guy whom I made appointment with told me to wait as he was with another customer. I waited for half an hour and he was still busy. I left without haircut. They didn't even have the courtesy to apologize. I recommend never to go there. There are better places with better staff. read more

My barber has since moved and my review is no longer relevant. Still a convenient location for anyone in SLU.

Hannah is without a doubt one of the best, if not the best barber I have ever come across. When I lived in Seattle, I tried all over the place (Squire, Head Shop, Acme, and a few others). All of those places had above average to excellent barbers, but Hannah is in a class of her own. Her attention to detail is out of this world. Thanks for always providing 100% attention to detail and making me look good, literally. Best regards, Colin read more

Great new barbershop with great barbers and comfortable chairs! I've been seeing Nick, and he's a true haircut artist. The heated moist towel and steamed shaves are very relaxing, and I love that you get a rinse after your haircut. So that you're not left with your face and head covered with hair trimmings. I would definitely recommend Nick and this barbershop to anyone who wants a great hair cut experience! read more

Had my first cut from Jeremy, whom is fairly new to Dexter Barber, as I usually go with Kevin. I was extremely impressed with Jeremy's skills and cut. He was patient and curious at the same time, wanting to learn how Kevin cuts my hair and wanted to replicate it. Wouldn't mind going back to him again in the future to give Kevin a break. ;) read more

Dexter Ave Barber - Cut by Jeremy - Barbers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I really enjoy this place because I can come here and get a haircut without an appointment. However if your schedule permits you, I suggest you schedule an appointment. read more

If you're in the market for a topnotch men's cut/knowledge staff who understand men's hair - highly recommend this shop. With little instruction, my stylist (Maureen) knew exactly what I envisioned for my cut (excellent end result!). Both Maureen and the shop owner were extremely friendly/welcoming, which was especially nice as I'm new to Seattle. I left the shop with many recommendations for the city/outdoors.. and the owner was kind enough to show me his art, which was very impressed by. All-in-all a great experience, and cut. read more

I've tried most of the highest rated barbers in the seattle area in the under $50 haircut range and I can easily say Kevin is the absolute finest. His attention to detail is impeccable. He includes a razor lineup with his cuts which most "barbers" don't anymore. And to top it off he is super friendly and a good person. I hate to encourage more people to go to him because I'd love to keep him to myself but I promise you won't regret changing barbers to Kevin or someone from his team. read more

I've been looking in Seattle for the right barber for the last 3 years and I finally got the fit for me! I'm getting the right balance between price, distance, and quality. Kevin, the owner, is super friendly and committed to getting you the haircut you wanted (or even better!) The early bird special at $30 is an amazing deal given the area, so take full advantage of it! read more

I went in to get my haircut and was greeted by the owner, Kevin. He's super nice and has a really clean salon. I love the white barber chairs! Maureen was the one to cut my hair and she did an excellent job! She's super friendly and funny. It was all together a great experience. I went back in a few days later to have Maureen give me a hot shave. It was another wonderful experience, very relaxing and therapeutic; I felt pampered :) I think these guys are a new shop so you should definitely go down and give them a visit and welcome them to the neighborhood. read more

Just like all of the other reviews say -- Nick is amazing. The first time he cut my hair I had come in to have him fix a bad haircut I gave myself. He was very kind to me and was able to make me look presentable again! I keep coming back with high expectations and he always delivers. I hear the other barbers here do a great job as well. Pay them a visit and you won't be disappointed! read more

Fantastic barbershop! Very clean and professional. Nick has been cutting my hair for over a year now and always goes above and beyond. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a top notch shop at reasonable prices. read more

I was able to walk in last minute and they were super accommodating! Service was thoughtful; did an excellent job. A great overall haircut at a reasonable price! read more

Kevin is a great barber! He's meticulous, and clearly a perfectionist. Definitely will be a repeat customer!

Kevin has been my barber for about 3 years now. He delivers a consistent and careful haircut and also happens to be a super nice guy. I recommend him highly! read more
