I went here for a beard trim a few weeks ago on a Sunday. I didn't have an appointment, but there…read morewas no wait. I was assigned to Jesus's chair and he proceeded to do a great job. I'm not very good at communicating what I'm looking for, but he both understood and did some additional things that were a big improvement. He asked if I wanted my beard lined up in a way that was easier for me to manage between trims and used a paper template to ensure he got both sides evenly. He wasn't super talkative, and I'm not either, so that was a good match! Or maybe he's chatty with clients who are chatty and just follows their lead, but either way, it was comfortable for me. The lighting is bright enough that I kept my eyes closed for a portion of the experience, and the music was a little loud for me, but it was a solid playlist. The chair was comfortable and things were impressively clean. I was there kind of early on that Sunday and so I didn't see a ton of other customers, but the few I saw seemed happy with their experience. It is good to find a shop that does a good job with beards that isn't also trying to be a whisky bar, a gentlemen's lounge, a sports bar, or a spa. Should have taken a few before and after photos to share--maybe next time! I waited a few weeks to write this to see how my beard would grow in and now, about 15 days later, it looks great and not in need of immediate maintenance. I'll definitely be back

Overall, I am happy with this barber shop and will continue to patronize them. I've been twice and…read morehad 2 different barbers. I would say that their beard shape ups are top-notch. I am incredibly picky about my haircut and both times I couldn't stay longer, but if I could have, I would have had them get it perfect. I don't doubt the skills, I just need to explain exactly what I want better. I am about 90% satisfied with both haircuts (Again, I am a bit crazy about how perfect the cut is). The price is a tad high, I can't get out of here for under $100.

I wanted to like this place so much. Barber was certainly pleasant. But I expressly said what kind…read moreof cut I wanted and I even made sure to spend time pointing out an issue that from a prior haircut that I wanted addressed. Barber said sure, no problem, I got this. $120 later and it turns out - he didn't. Six weeks later, not only is the problem still there, it's even MORE pronounced. It is a source of frustration, annoyance, and regret every day. A lot of people like this place and I probably would have gone back - bad cuts happen, I guess, but for $120? Nah - you have to do better than that.

This most recent time, I went after work and got a haircut, eyebrows trimmed and my beard trimmed. I was in and out in about 15 minutes. There was no nonsense with getting my hair taken care of, no upscale on products, just a great cut and trim.

I would ask for Tamara when there isn't a big wait time but otherwise go with whoever is available first and still never disappointed with the service. The staff is pretty nice, does a no nonsense, super quick service and listen to your requests. Some staff members like Steve take appointments too to manage the wait times better. So make sure to call them if you want a particular person and don't have time to wait. The price is pretty reasonable for Silver Spring rates. Difficult to get parking right in front of the building but you can find metered parking very easily if you go to Spring street.

First time was random then I picked a different one and the final time random again. Unreal After the third time I just gave up and went to my usual barber in my hometown. They tell you to reschedule but obviously everyone else is booked a few days out when you check the schedule. Finding out that my cut is cancelled a few hours ahead of time isn't convenient for anyone. Very unprofessional.

He and I exchanged messages on Instagram and he assured me that Sean was my guy. I booked an appointment online (new customer $80) and the men welcomed me the day of. I felt totally comfortable and knew I was in good hands. Dexter checked in with me as Sean worked his magic, clipping off my pink hair. I asked him for a flower design and he delivered. I knew it would be drastic and I was speechless at the end result. I have gotten an overwhelming positive response, the first coming from a woman in line at Panera. She called me a "boss b!tch" and told me to "keep rocking it." Every day that goes by I'm more confident with my look. As a white woman, it's not a social norm (yet!) to get the "big chop". Knowing I was in good hands helped me take the leap. See my journey on their Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CfXiW8mg3ZE/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
