I arrived with a friend to see if they could do walk-in haircuts on Saturday like 11:30 AM. They offered to cut our hair even though they were closed or closing soon and did an excellent job. The place is awesome and the guy who cut my hair was awesome too. I wish I got his name A+++++ In the vibe was awesome. The guy decorated the shop with cool movie, posters spe made. read more

Great haircuts and great staff. Really top quality and a great vibe all around. If you need a shave or cut this is the place to go!

Worst haircut experience of my life! Damon, the male hair cutter, stared me down and scolded me for walking in despite a sign on the door welcoming walk-ins. I could tell he was drunk because he smelled of booze. He even threatened to stop the haircut halfway through because I asked where all the people waiting for their cuts after me were. There were only two other walk-ins, so I can't imagine how their haircuts went. To top it off, he had an open knife on his desk while overcharging me for the haircut. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! read more

Timing helped on this one as I was a walk in and they took me. Although my #3 crop couldn't be easier to do, my barber ( girl with black hair) went above and beyond the usual crop job. Straight razored my neck and cheeks with warm lather. Added the hot town treatment with light scalp massage! I want to visit Reno again for the service alone. Great place indeed!! read more

Hands down the best barber shop in Reno and Sparks for a beard trim. I can't review for a haircut because unfortunately I can't grow hair on my head to save my life but I got a mean beard lol. I got the pleasure of having Carleton trim my beard and line it up. There's a decent amount of parking, location is in a great area and they accept walk-ins as well. Carleton is also born and raised in Reno so if you have any questions he can answer it. The conversation we had was great and I'm only having him cut my beard from here on out. So if you have a beard be sure to visit Carleton and you won't be disappointed. read more

See all

Love this place prices are great staff is great miss the owner around but still a great vibe!

Love this Barber shop! Totally chill Jessica and Damon and the "new guy" are great people! Always feel good after leaving. Great conversation and they always watchin a movie to pass time! If you like a barber shop feel this place is legit! No Karens or Chads aloud unless you can take the banter! read more

I was driving by and saw this spot and was in dyer need of a cut. The door said open so I walked in and asked for a cut and a beard trim and was instantly met with an attitude from Damon. I proceeded to let him cut my hair and he was upset the whole time. When he was finished with my hair he started to clean my neck up and let me out of the chair, I asked him to tighten my beard and threw a fit because it's "Friday" mind you it's Saturday... He proceeded to cut my entire beard off and when I got home by drop fade is completely un even. Don't go here! read more

Had some time before my flight a while ago, walk-in's were welcome, nice price, then Jessica gave a proper babershop cut and treatment - thanks, will be back! read more

Took my son get a nice hair cut. Asked for a high faded with the top short. I actually showed a picture what I wanted on him. Didn't get anything like the picture probably the worst faded hair cut I've seen. Too the point where I had pull out my own clippers and fix's this patchy faded. And too top it off it was 40 dollars for a kids haircut. not even the best barbershops in Reno charge that much for a kids haircut, let alone a horrible faded. So yeah won't be coming back. read more

Looks like someone had the same exact experience I did not even a week later. Carlton if you still work here, you need to check your boy and save your business. read more

If I could give this place ZERO stars I would and it would be because of the way the Damon decided to conducted himself today. My boyfriend had walked in for Carleton (who had taken him as a walk in prior) and he could've easily just said "sorry it's appointment only please set one up" instead he was aggressive, rude and hostile. He still sat him in his chair even though he said he had an appointment in 10 minutes. ALL YOU HAD TO SAY WAS NO MY GUY. On top of his rude and unprofessional behavior he botched the hair cut. Assuming because he was rushing his 10 minutes. He asked for a slick back with medium fade and he gave him a high skin fade. I really don't know how you mess it up or mix that up. Now he's just practically bald with a lot scalp irritation. On top of all of this when he came in and asked if Carleton was in he told him no he's not he doesn't work here anymore. My bf asked why and he just got so agitated about it and said he wasn't going to get into it with him. Wouldn't it have been better to just tell him when Carlton was? You made this so hard and for what? $35 you didn't deserve because you botched it. UPDATE: WALK INS WELCOME SIGN IS POSTED INSIDE TAKE IT DOWN IF ITS NOT TRUE UPDATE PART 2: Carleton still works here read more

As a person who recently finished my military service with the Marine Corps, I was taught to treat every person with respect no matter who they are. When I was looking for barbers this morning I was looking for one with decent reviews and one that opened up early. I also called 2 times at 10:00am and no one answered. I headed to downtown barbershop (which online says open at 10am) so I show up exactly at 10:02am and I see on the door it says closed. The sign says will return at 10:00am so I thought maybe he hasn't opened or forgot to turn the sign but as I was walking away I see that he is giving someone a haircut and assumed he forgot to turn the sign. I open the door and immediately get YELLED at to leave and that they're closed. I politely said ok and walked away. This is not how you teat anyone, specially someone you do not know. Terrible customer service and don't even care about how the haircuts come out. I headed to The Town Barbers, they opened the door for me and I was greeted with a warm welcome. Plus I got an appointment in 5 minutes. read more

If I could give them zero stars, I would. The barber ignored my instructions, insisted on using tools I told them not to, and ended up massacring my hair. I wasn't asking for anything fancy, just not to change much about the style, and not to cut much off. A bit after starting, the barber surreptitiously cut off virtually all the hair from the back of my head. Definitely do not go here unless you want something like a uniform buzz or a clean head shave--they won't be able to hear you describe anything else. And you'll be out more than $30; you'll also have to suffer the indignity of wearing the haircut. read more

Husband needed a hair cut and this was the only shop willing to take a walking on a Saturday! he had a great experience with Adam.

I called to book a hair cut for my 11 month old. I understand not all locations will do so. I was immediately cut off the second I said months old and then he ended the call. I called back to verify what he had said and when he realized I knew he ended the call he tried to make a joke of it. Customer service was an absolute joke. read more

Hands down best barber shop in town. If you like an old school barber and not looking for the fancy stuff this is the place. Good quality cuts affordable and quick it's all you can ask in a barber. If you have a chance to get in Damon is a great barber and can give you a cut that will keep you looking good. Good company as well with great tunes and sports playing read more

This place has been good to me but lately their service has seem to gone down. I go in for a walk in because they have a sign that says walk ins are welcome. So I walk in and don't even get greeted by the two barbers and I sit and wait 15 minuets for the next guy to be available then he decides to ask if I had an appointment and I told him no and he said he can't take me because he has an appointment coming in ten min. Would be nice to be greeted from the start and not waste my time waiting to be turned down read more

This place will leave out a large sign on the street saying "Walk-Ins" welcome in addition to the hanging sign on the door saying "Open." Then when you, a familiar customer that has tipped very well enters, you get shouted at that they're done for the day. Poor customer service. Take your signs down and lock up; the customer isn't to be made to feel disrespected because you won't follow business etiquette. read more

Wow, what a terrible experience! I read the reviews and made my way downtown. I was treated rudely immediately upon walking in, basically "we don't have time for you." Then I looked up at the price list: $20-35 for a men's haircut? That doesn't include hot foam, razor, or any extras? Are they out of their minds? They then decided there was maybe a barber in the back who could take me before he went home. We agreed on $20 as I wasn't paying a penny more. My hair is so butchered that I'm going to have to go get another haircut to fix it. I will never return and would suggest you take my advice on this one. read more

I am a frequent client at the downtown barbershop the atmosphere is awesome Carlton the owner is amazing. I highly recommend this shop for all your haircut and beard needs. read more

Have been going here for a while now. Top notch quality with affordable pricing. Bob the barber always throwing it down with Morgan on a consistent basis. Bob always make sure I am taken care of and if he cannot Morgan is there to take care of me. The shop owner is Carlton and is a friendly guy. The entire shop is well kept and the hours and TRULY attractive. read more

This place is the spot Fusho they won't let you leave looking L7 the owners a good Family man great place to take the kids too.

I've been going to to Downtown Barbershop for ten years, Hands down one of the best Master Barbers in Reno Nevada. From the time you get in the chair there is nothing but great conversation and an amazing cut and shave. This place is top tier read more

This place is amazing.. I moved here from SC and needed to find a good barber.. That was 5 years ago... to this day I only come to him... He's unbeatable in skill read more

This is the best best barbershop in Nevada if you don't get your haircut here you do not know what your doing, I came in on a Saturday I've driven past this place a couple times on Saturday and I always see Carlton in here. Even though it was kinda busy he still tried to get me in as fast as possible but still did great haircuts on the other people. He was a great guy to talk to and my haircut was exceptional and the prices were great. will be returning every time I can read more

Great cuts, Joe was awesome and even went out of his way to help my sick Grandpa in the hospital a few days later. Great service, great human beings. read more

I called the other day and the guy I talked to said he could get me in the next day at 4:30. I showed up about 10 minutes early only to be turned away because there was only one person working and the guy that I called had already left and the one guy said he couldn't do anything to help me. 10/10 wouldn't recommend. read more

Carlton has been my barber for about 9 years. He is a master barber and can style your cut any way you like. Attention to detail is what counts. You get that from him. I am very particular about my hair and travel to his shop from my home in Carson City because I know the kind of job he does. Going to his shop is money well spent. read more

I've been here years ago, and always could walk in and get a cut within an hour even if they had 3-4 people waiting. Apparently they take appointments now, and turned me away at 3pm on a Friday. It's unfortunate that they don't keep a chair open for walk ins; and or one cut per hour open for walk ins or something like that! They were nice and just basically told me they were too booked for the rest of the day. I'll try again some other day. read more

Stopped by for a haircut this afternoon for the first time and left with the best haircut I have ever had! Younger staff but the feel of the place is that of a traditional Men's barber shop through and through. I rarely post comments, but the service and attention to detail of the barber was of the quality I rarely see these days. Not like so many local chop shops that have you out the door in five minutes. For the price, which is the usual or less than that most shops charge, I was amazed at the time and care the barber took to make sure my cut was right. It felt great for once to actually relax and feel like you were truly a welcomed customer! I not only will be a returning customer, I also will be highly recommending this shop to my friends!! read more

Love this barbershop have bin going with the owner Carlton for 2 years great guy he treats you like family and knows what to do with your hair to me prices don't matter because you get what you pay for if you want a cheap haircut go to a beauty salon or something because he takes his time and absolutely will always go with him straight razor shave with hot towels and hot foam absolutely love it definitely recommend coming here I've bin to 2 different barbers and none of them are as good as this place read more

Drove one hour for an haircut just to be turned away after they said they would take me in.

Friendly but really really bad cut. Maybe I just got a new guy? He worked a lot on sides and back but the top is hacked. On par with supercuts as worst ever haircut for me. Im taking recommendations Reno... read more

So tired of Team Cuts/Supercuts/what ever Cuts. As a Marine Veteran, I was so stoked to sit in Joe's chair...great guy and he wielded some clippers and a set of scissors like the old school pros. Really happy I made the drive from south Reno. I'm guessing there are a lot of pro barbers in Reno...but glad I didn't have to go through them all to find Joe. Definitely be returning! read more

Best thing about old school barbershops is instead of Time and People, you get to read Playboy while waiting your turn.

Great relaxed place to get your hair cut. Just got my kids cuts and they look great. Classic style barber shop with friendly staff. Wait was a little long, but this place was hopping busy so we totally understand. Would totally recommend. read more

Always reliable. Great cut, attention to detail, no fuss. My family has been going here for years and won't go anywhere else.

Great atmosphere! Bob did my sons cut. Our fave was on her honeymoon and we had to get a cut for our Birthday mini vaca. We arrived in Reno NV with a nice afro and Bob gave Roberto the soccer player cut , perfect! Thanks a lot. We will be back when in Reno. The owner was also really cool with a great attitude/ personality. read more

Do yourself a favor: Get a few pulls at The Hub, then go see the gentlemen at A Downtown Barbershop. They know their scissors.
