I saw Darren and explained exactly what I wanted. He nailed it perfectly! It's always great to find someone who listens to what you're looking for and delivers exactly what you had in mind. I'll definitely be making another appointment. If you're looking for a great haircut at a decent price, Slades is worth checking out!

I've been coming to this barbershop since I moved in next door over a year ago. I booked with Greg…read moreand he treated me with disdain and disrespect. I was trying to save money and I was looking at the haircut services. I don't know hair clipper sizes but I only wanted a little off the top because I like my curls. He was chastising me for trying to cut them out of paying the full rate and complained about people who get angry for having to pay the full price. I've been going here a while so not like I was going to fight. I think they do a great job! I've usually booked with Elmer. But the assumptions and then the unsolicited opinions shared. I was so uncomfortable and then I realized when I got home that it was much shorter than I wanted but I felt uncomfortable speaking up during the cut. It really ruined what otherwise was a great barbershop and it's next to my house. And I tipped him anyways on top of the correct rate. Man so f'ing pissed

Upon his discharge, he was looking quite shaggy and certainly required a bit of tender loving care to regain his groomed good looks. I arranged an appointment for him with Jason, and my eighty-five-year-old husband remarked that it was one of the finest haircuts he has ever received. He also experienced his first professional straight razor shave, which he thoroughly enjoyed. It was, in every respect, a job well done.

In the city for the weekend and needed a beard trim and head cleanup. Andre's got me in same day…read moreand I was treated like a longtime loyal customer. Meticulous, patient, and professional, my barber rocked. The whole vibe is something that I can't find back home in Miami: old school chairs, decor, magazines, and the all-important hang. Great chatter with some real characters. This will be the ONLY shop I visit when I'm in Chicago. Same-day call ins and appointments only, and CASH ONLY. Trust these guys.

And didn't even clean them after using them on me again. Cut back my hairline on one side and didn't even do a complete haircut. Also got charged $60 for just a haircut when the website said $45. Terrible service, terrible cleanliness, and a terrible haircut.

Couldn't figure out how to reply to the owners comment, but wow--not a professional response. I…read moredon't understand why his response to me being unhappy has to be so aggressive. I went there because of the great reviews and I left unhappy, so convey that, that's what Yelp is for. That was my experience clearly it's not everybody's experience. It seems like you're advocating to not post honest reviews because it may hurt your business. You have excellent reviews I think mine stating that maybe for longer hair and for the haircut, this wasn't the best place is fair. I don't think it's a great place for people that have somewhat longer hair. It was frustrating that he refused to even out the longer portion of my beard if it couldn't be done with a trimmer. I asked three times. And the hair was not even doubt which I didn't realize until I went home and looked in the mirror. I paid full price and I tipped because I received the service that I paid for and the barber worked on me. I'm not a jerk. I'm not gonna not tip. It's interesting that that's what you are recommending for people that work hard is to not tip them. Either way after this aggressive response saying I'm trying to discredit you, I definitely won't be back- if the response to a customer stating his honest opinion is to be aggressively defensive and rant about how my behavior was wrong, that is more offensive than a bad haircut. Didn't want to go there, but man, the aggression is unnecessary. Maybe this is for certain people, but not for me. I look forward to trying other barbershops.

Today I called ahead, asked if Apple Pay would be okay, I was told it's fine "we'll make it work" I expressed to them I am going to leave work early and asked for assurance if Apple Pay would suffice. I was assured it would be. I get into the chair, mention to my barber the guy on the phone said Apple Pay was okay, my barber said no, and told me he would have to cancel the appointment. Such a waste of time. Not to mention the last three cuts were mediocre, I'm not a style freak and didn't mind the previous less than satisfactory work because of convenience, but if you don't have Zelle don't bother coming to this place. You can literally go anywhere else.

Not only are her…read moreprices incredibly reasonable (my last full head highlight was unbelievably reasonable, even with a hefty tip), she's incredibly talented. I used to go to an upscale fancy pants salon in Burr Ridge and the highlights were good, but even partials were pocketbook breakers. This is not a fancy salon, but offers an array of services (I can only speak of highlights with Toula). She is sweet, knowledgeable, and very gifted with color. The salon is in the east Lakeview neighborhood. Parking might be tricky (I walk), but it's worth an Uber! When you make your appointment, tell her Joy said hi!
