Me!! Crazy good cut!! Thanks Jonathon!!
John D.

I followed Jonathon to Finley's from another men's salon in the galleria, I like the aesthetic at Finley's much better. Jonathon and I have been working toward an awesome cut, and we got one step closer with my last cut!! Awesome cut Jonathon...you know I'll be back!! Also, Paige,at the front is awesome too!! Always have a great time when we come in for cuts!!

I gave 2 stars because I liked the location, I've been twice to get a shave with straight razor and None of the 2 barbers could gave me a clean shave, the 2nd time the barber put me the hot towel after he shaved me and not before WTF? He did a terrible job, I had to tell him 3 times to make both sides of my beard look aligned, The pic shows the result of an unclean shave, the first time was the same and I got cuts all over my face, but I don't want to post that pic, it's just embarrassed

Apparently this is what a low bald fade with a hard disconnect looks like. Also what the hell happened with blending my beard?

I made a yelp account just to post about how shitty this haircut is. I've had a lot of bad haircuts in my day but this one takes the cake. Not only my own haircut but my brothers was completely fucked up. Not a lot pisses me off, but when I pay $35 for a haircut- I expect it to take more than 10 minutes and not look like dog shit. I am visiting from out of town and my brother recommended we go here. What a joke, I feel that the free beer is there to distract everyone from how butchered they are getting. I'm embarrassed to go back home looking like this. I didn't even have them touch the top of my hair and it was still horrendous. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. Absolute joke, I wish I could give zero stars.

Just had an awesome experience at Finley's Barbershop! Genesis is amazing :)

You have to give this place a try! They just opened up 2 weeks ago and it's their 15th location! Finley's is an old-fashioned barbershop with a modern take. The use hot lather and razor blades to finish off, wonderful :) For $35 you get a personalized experience with a cut, wash, razor, massage, and hot towel. Ask for Genesis, she is a rock star! You'll feel right at home as they have complimentary drinks, beer & wine!

"My forehead after a day"

Update: they called me and apologized and gave me a complimentary haircut. That means a lot that they actually care. Ima make this a 4 star instead of a 1 star just because of the customer service. Old review: I usually don't post reviews, especially negative ones; but this wasn't a normal occasion and I think it'll be helpful for people's future references. I am a young businessman and I have important business meetings almost everyday. This past Thursday, 01/16, I had a huge party hosted by myself and a meeting on Friday morand I decided to try this new place, Finley's, close to my crib in River Oaks area. It's a nice place and ppl are nice! So why 1 star?! Because... the sweet black lady who works there cut my forehead when she was cutting my hair. I know things happen, and I'm a genuinely positive person, but this ruined my whole night and had to wear make up to cover only a part of it, which I hated. Unfortunately, this happened in the worst time possible and I don't think I'm going back. Still, they are great people and y'all might be luckier than me and have a great experience! Wish y'all the best.

Ralston was very nice and my son likes how he cuts his hair. Easy to make an appointment. No long wait.

I've been coming to Cutthroat Barbershop on Washington for a couple years now, and it's become my…read morego-to spot without question. From the moment you walk in, you just know you're in a good barber's hands--and that you're going to walk out looking sharp. I've been seeing Danny for a while now, and what I appreciate most is the trust I've built with him. I'm not just coming in for the same old cut every time--I feel comfortable enough to let him do whatever he thinks will work best, whether it's a seasonal update or just something new. He's got a great eye, and I always leave looking clean and confident. The shop itself is in a super convenient location right off Washington Ave, with a solid-sized parking lot (rare in this area!). It's also right next to Catalina Coffee and Dark Horse Tavern, so whether you need a quick pick-me-up or a drink before or after your cut, it's all right there. Cutthroat even offers a complimentary drink before your service, which is a nice touch--even though I'm usually rolling in last-minute and don't take full advantage. All in all, it's a laid-back but professional spot with real barbers who know what they're doing. Highly recommend.

Been coming here for years and always use the same barber, who is fantastic at what he does and…read morevery personable but also understanding on the occasions that I'm not feeling as chatty. As others have mentioned, they are pretty rigid when it comes to tardiness so....don't be late. Just as an adult and as a general rule, don't be late. Leave early and allow for unexpected delays to arise, this is Houston after all. If you're 15 minutes early, you're on time. If you're on time, you're late. They offer free beverages to enjoy while you wait for your appointment to begin, these vary from local beer to whiskey. If you're interested, you may need to request it, not all of the receptionists proactively offer but it is included. Not a bad offering and is appreciated as these aren't the cheapest services you'll find, but they're in-line with other moderately upscale men's barbershops ($40 beard trim etc) and my experiences have always proven worth it.

I walked into this establishment 14 years ago a mere civilian. I have walked out a Greek god carved…read morefrom marble every single time since. The barbers at this shop don't cut hair. They sculpt destiny. Every snip of the scissors is a conversation between artist and canvas. I'm pretty sure I heard angels harmonizing the first time I got hit with a fade here. My wife looked at me when I got home and said "who are you?" Not because I looked different. Because I looked like the man she always hoped I'd become. Carlos built this place, and whatever dark sorcery he's teaching back there, it's working. This man has assembled an entire roster of assassins. I've sat in multiple chairs at this shop over the years, and every single one of these barbers is cut from the same legendary cloth. You could walk in blindfolded, sit in any chair, and walk out looking like you were put on this earth to be photographed. I made the catastrophic error of going somewhere else last month due to a scheduling conflict. I have never known such betrayal -- and I did it to myself. That barber cut my hair like he was mad at me. Like my head had personally wronged his family. I spent three weeks looking like a wish.com version of myself. Never again. I would drive through a hurricane to walk into this shop. I would wade through floodwaters. I would cancel a meeting with the Pope. If they relocated to the middle of the Sahara Desert, I would simply begin walking. If you are reading this and you are not already in one of their chairs, you are wasting your life. Five stars. Would give six but Yelp is a coward.

Making a reservation is straight forward but the menu can be a bit confusing especially if you are rocking the bald. (Half Shave and Straight razor with basic trim). Each station has their own unique vibe even though they are rocking the same color smocks but it reminds me a collection of distinguished gentleman and it works!

Fantastic vibe and service!…read more I've been considering a new barber for a few weeks. I read all the great reviews as well as the not-so-great ones, and I am always impressed with leaders who take accountability for the customer experience. Ryan's comments made me feel secure in trying out the shop. Making the appointment was seamless. They use a common scheduling app called SQUIRE, and I was able to get an appointment with Ryan. The shop is aesthetically fantastic. Very old-school in design and decor, which I like. It fits perfectly in the neighborhood, which adds to the charm. The energy in the room, however, is something that I rarely see. The team and the customers are on an entirely different level of coolness than I'm used to, and the experience was terrific. Ryan and I hit it off right away in terms of him understanding what I was looking for, and he exceeded my expectations. He listens well and asks strategically good questions. The service was timely and a good value for the price paid. I was watching one of the other barbers do a masterful job on another customer, and I feel confident that whoever I see in there will make me look (reasonably) impressive!
