I have, on more than one occasion, made an appointment to this place to see Chito only to have him turn up sometimes an hour late, having called him numerous times and texted him. When he showed up he didn't even bother to apologize. While he was cutting my hair on one occasion, he was using ethic slurs while minorities were sitting down waiting for their hair cut. This place is a disgrace, and the owner doesn't know the meaning of customer service. Avoid like the plague! read more

Made an appointment with Big Trey, whom I believe is also the owner. He did a really good job. Asked for a high skin fade and he gave me my cut to my liking. I had two concerns going in. Number 1, I was in town to see the Dodgers play and had on my Dodgers gear, he talked a little crap, I did so so about the Astros, all in good fun. And my more pressing concern was that he wouldn't be any good, I come from a town that takes its barbershop culture very seriously so I'm a little persnickety when it come to my fade. As I I said, he provided my cut to my liking and was able to jokingly talk crap representing his Astros to a diehard Dodgers fan, so I definitely recommend him for his skill and welcoming personality. I was on vacation and wasn't too bothered but he was a little late getting to me after I had set an appointment and I do see punctuality is not this shop's forte according to many reviews, so that maybe something to keep in mind. read more

Really disappointed. I used to get my haircut here when it was Bayou city Barbers. I booked an appointment on Saturday the 27th of January for 9:30. I got there at 9:20, and sat till 9:50. No one opened up the business. I tried to call, it said not taking calls at this time. I emailed to ask if anyone was turning up, but no reply. Tried everything. Such a waste of time and unfortunately no communication to tell me they wouldn't be there and to reschedule. I went elsewhere. Shame. It was good a while back. read more

Scheduled a Saturday morning cut for my son before school starts and no one showed - no one answered the phone.

Now known as Head Honchos. I'm an Out-of-Towner, set an appointment for Monday opening time. Got there a few minutes early and Rick was ready to go. A solid mens haircut (trimmer and scissors blend. Great convo, good food recommendations, felt like home 1800 Millie's away. Totally recommend. read more

Tramon (Big "Trey") really is the best in the city. He can do anything. He's got great technique and a huge heart for his work. Loved going there and being part of the community while away on work. Thanks, guys! read more

I've been coming to this barbershop for a couple of years, tried 4 or 5 barbers before settling with Tray. His cuts are great. However, I can't tell you how many times I've booked an appointment and been seated 30+ minutes after my reserved time slot. Today was the straw that broke the camels back. I booked an appointment right before a flight out of town, received the confirmation text and email, only to show up to 1 Barber who told me he was the only one working today and couldn't get me in for 4 hours. I'm sick of making appointments here only to be blown off. Taking my money elsewhere. read more

I went to Bayou city they gave me a horrible haircut the entire front and back is uneven after me asking the guy to fix it. He was rude and gave me a bad haircut which was completely over priced to begin with. I won't be going back. read more

Moved to Houston last summer. And luckily was having 'Dr tino' mostly and a few others and they were all great. Had come around 7-8 times. But today I went and had 'only Big - Tray' available. Worst experience ever. To the point where I was like I will pay and leave then get into an argument. Kept giving looks and was non responsive. Did not even ask whether I was happy with the haircut and just abruptly took off the sheet and was basically like "We're done.' When I spent a 15-20 seconds looking at the back of my head with the mirror he basically almost snatched the mirror from my hand. I'd had a long day myself and was in no mood to argue but definitely not coming back if no one reaches out to apologize. It's a shame because the other hair dressers I've had have been good but no point going to a place with disrespectful staff like this. As soon as i reached home the first response I got was 'did you even get a haircut?' read more

I've been coming here for a couple years and have always gotten great haircuts. However, my appointments almost always run behind schedule. I show up on time for my appointments and typically have to wait about 30 minutes to be seated. Today was especially bad: I scheduled an 11 AM appointment, then was informed at 10:52 that my appointment had been rescheduled to noon. I showed up at noon and waited a full hour to be seated. The barber who was originally supposed to cut my hair seated a walk-in customer before me. I would strongly recommend this place fix their reservation/scheduling system. read more

My barber was Chris and my experience was great There weren't reviews of Chris in yelp when I first went but someone had recommended him for me and he was spot on. All of the barbers are professional but chill. I definitely underestimated a good barber haircut, no more sport clips or great clips this is the place to go. Walk ins are harder to pull off so make an appointment online. This place is all about atmosphere, If you have time get there a little early, get a beer, listen to music and shoot the sh!t. It is a hangout type of place. If I was getting married or having special event I would totally rent this place to get all grooms men ready. Maybe some other special event. Oh yeah the beer is cold and smooth. Also they do have a lot of product and decent prices. I picked up some beard conditioner, good stuff! You will get a good haircut. Good job guys! read more

Head Honchos - Before and After I have gotten compliments on new hair - Barbers Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is my third trip to Bayou City Barbers, and the most challenging. I was going from a long beard to a medium length, with a different shape, as well as a restyle on my haircut. "Ace" Dustin did a fantastic job, and took the time to take care of some details above and beyond my expectations. I have always had a great experience coming here. I honestly don't understand the low ratings from some people. I have pretty high expectations about the people I do business with, and this place is definitely a winner in my book. read more

I've been here before with better results than today. I understand everyone is trying to get back on their feet due to the covid19 pandemic but the treatment I got today from I'm guessing the manager was unacceptable. Let's start with the hair cut. I showed two pictures of how I wanted my hair faded. The barber said okay and went to work. Mind you, we've been in quarantine so my hair was full. I get up after and look at the cut. It's cut way too short and In. Nothing like the pictures in reference to. I paid and went out to my car and decided this is unsatisfactory. The more I look at the back of my hair. The more I was upset with the hair cut. I then went back in and asked what could be done. Heavier set white Caucasian man as I wasn't able to get his name said what I can he do for me? I told him the hair cut was not what I asked for and what can he do. He looked at the pictures and said they are the same. In what universe is what your barber did and these pictures the same. He proceeded to act like tough it's my own fault. I asked some of the barbers there and they don't want to speak out against the cut because of likely friction with a co-worker or management. He finally says I can't put hair back on your head so what do you want. This infuriated me as the least he could have done was refund me my money. He goes to refund me and tells me don't come back. With that type of service and mediocre barber work. Trust me, you won't get a cent out of me. Also, the entire staff seems to have turned as all the old barbers are gone. I'm not saying everyone there is a terrible barber but this was my experience. You'll see below what I requested and what I received. Good luck and never again!! read more

We're in Houston from Massachusetts and my two sons scheduled appointments a couple days ago, one for a haircut, one for a cut and beard service. Appointments were at 9 and 9:15am on 8/27... at 9:40 they had to leave because no one showed up to open the shop. They had to Uber there and back, for nothing. I reached out by phone and text, no response. There was another gentleman there for an appointment as well, what a way to run a business. Try setting an alarm next time so you get out of bed for your previously scheduled appointments, not a good look. read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS BARBER SHOP!!!!!!!! One of the worst haircuts I ever had in my life I was a walk-in from New York here for my cousins wedding once I gave my number for an appointment they gave me the worst barber in the shop uneven tape up worst beard shape up in my life I will never go back or recommend anyone going to this shop just terrible work all around had to tell him to even up my beard several times I'm disgusted by the work went to the hotel and did a better job. If you want an over paid shitty hair cut this is a place to go but if you need a fresh perfect cut DO NOT GO TO THIS SHOP read more

If it could be negative stars it would be. Sat there for 45 minutes waiting my turn. Never greeted by staff...never even acknowledged. Then a person walks in and the barber who was in the back waved him over to his chair and started cutting his hair. New to Texas so I guess the sign saying something about Texas hospitality is complete BS. Wont return going to Gus's barber further away from my house read more

Found this place on yelp! I'm from LA, needed a haircut. Always hard to trust other barbers but Mike did a great job. Had an appointment. Was in and out fast. And the barbershop is very clean and they bump great music read more

Showed up for my appointment on time but my barber was apparently running behind possibly due to a late arrival or a walk-in not sure. Tell him I'm his 1100 appointment sorry he's my 1030 it was 1100 at this time. I left work for this appointment. Could not wait the for him to do another cut. That's why we make appointments. This shop does online appointments and texts notifications would have been nice to have got a notification of the barber being behind I could have avoided leaving work just to turnaround and go back. This is a clean shop everyone inside wore a mask and they always do good work. Just disappointed in the lack of communication. read more

If you ever wondered how my illustrious beard stays so majestic and beautiful it's because of Mike Fresh! Mike is my barber and this dude has talent beyond the likes I've ever witnessed. I made an appointment online and showed up 10 minutes earlier. I was immediately greeted at the door and offered a beer while a waited. Sat in Mike's chair and then witnessed modern-day wizardry that would make Harry Potter turn in his wand. The shop is upscale but far from pretentious. After a perfect cut, I received a straight razor line up that made me feel like I'm far more important than I am. Mike took his time and didn't stop until my cut was perfect. The price was commiserate with the service and the quality of my cut. I made a follow up appointment while sitting in my car admiring my beautiful beard! read more

I come here to get my beard trimmed 1-2 monthly. The guys know what they are doing. I always make an appointment but they do take walk ins. Close to Minute Maid Park on the Eado side and they have parking. They also have good music. read more

Dustin was great! This is my first time at this barber shop. My experience was awesome. I made an online appointment. Dustin was ready when I got there. Very clean place and friendly staff. They have beer! I highly recommend it . read more

This place is hot and cold. Barbers are talented but the waits can be ridiculous. Never show up without an appointment. It's about 50/50 if the appointment even means anything either. 50% of the time you will sit for 30 even with an appointment. read more

They seemed like nice guys, and maybe they just weren't used to doing what I needed. I went in for a head shave and a beard trim. Well, the barber I had literally scalped me. In three different spots, he cut chunks out of my scalp with the razor. These weren't shaving nicks. Two days later I have big scars on my head that aren't going to heal anytime soon. I think he intentionally had me facing away from the mirror, but when I looked in the mirror, I told him it looked crazy, and that I was bleeding like crazy. He claimed I had a pimple. I didn't--what I had was a smooth scalp before I went here. On top of that, he didn't even shave all the hair on my head. When I pointed out very clear hair on my head, he claimed he didn't see it. Dude needs to check his glasses prescription. Then he rushed through the beard trim, which I had to finish myself later. What he did was sloppy and uneven. Then he had the nerve to charge me for my scalping. I should have protested, but I was more concerned with stopping the bleeding. Don't let these dudes near you with a razor! read more

I've been following Jarrod from different barber shops for a couple years now. He takes his time to listen to what you want and gives the cleanest fades I've ever had. Super chill dude. His new place is super clean. The location is literally across the street from Woodrow's and warehouse live. It has its own parking spots, so don't fret about paying for parking or getting your ride towed. The place takes appointments, so of course there's no wait. Follow them on Facebook to create the appts online. While I was there, he even offered me a beer. read more

I needed a haircut ASAP and I looked online and found this great place. I was able to walk-in and was seen quickly. I am a former Marine and it's hard to find a place that does Marine Corps fades but Trey did a great job! He was also very nice and professional. It's also easily to find in downtown. Highly recommend! Semper Fi! read more

Set up my appointment with Chico for a buzz cut. Arrived at 6:15pm for my 6:30pm appointment and was in the chair by 6:40pm. As soon as I sat in the chair I was greeted and offered a cold fresh lonestar. Need I say more? Go check these guys out they will not let you down. read more

Took my son in for a back to school cut. Jarred is a pro! He suggested styles and was really proactive about making sure the cut fit the hair. The Barbershop has a great atmosphere and the vibe and music playing are wonderful. And one of the best things is that they take appointments on the weekends. So get your appointments soon, these guys fill up quick! read more

Highly recommend Bayou City. Great place, calm and inviting environment. I had my hair cut for the first time by Jarrod. He talked me through some options (I wanted to try something new) that would best suite my preferences, and did a fantastic job. And don't forget about the complimentary beer. 10 out of 10 will absolutely be back! read more

Sloppy, SLOPPY work by "Dr." Tino. Seemed farely careless in what he does, and doesn't seem to appreciate good craftsmanship. Haircut didn't come out how I wanted at all (wrong style, uneven cuts, etc.). No offense to the guy himself tho, he seems pretty nice - but the work is what speaks the loudest. read more

If I could give this place ZERO stars I would. My husband scheduled an appointment to get his haircut at 2 with DUSTY. After driving for about 45 MINUTES we parked right outside the barber at 1:45 and walked inside. First of all, We were not greeted. Second of all, Dusty asked if my husband had an appointment he said yeah at 2 with Dusty! However, Dusty proceeded to rudely tell my husband that has was completely booked until five!! He continued to be extremely rude and told my husband to "go run some errands in the meantime". Hmmmm...then what was the point of making an appointment? Would have been great if Dusty called my husband ahead of time to inform him that he was running behind but clearly Dusty lacks professionalism. Definitely DO NOT recommend this place! Go somewhere else!!! read more

This place is pretty cool, service is good, make sure to book an appointment to not be left waiting for too long. Chris is my preferred stylist here. They take cash and cars, not sure about Apple Pay or PayPal. The inside decor makes you feel super Texan. read more

Today marks the day that I'm officially done with this place. They do great hair cuts but the constant staff turn over and the fact that they don't honor their appointments has turned me off for good. They've been consistently 15-20 min late which isn't that big of a deal however today they told me they were 30-45 min behind. The joke of this is that they texted me 30 min before that to confirm the appointment time. Why would you not call your customer who you just texted and tell them you're behind? I made a special trip over then was given the time frame and because I left town for a trip I was unable to wait or make other arraignments. In my opinion this scenario is particularly bad customer service. Now I'm leaving to be in a wedding tomorrow and have to get a hair cut in a place I don't know. If you go here you will get a good hair cut but making an appointment is useless read more

I have been in Houston for over year and my search for a place to get my haircut has finally ended after walking out of Bayou City the happiest I've ever been after a trim. Chico was very friendly and made an active effort to get to know me throughout the half an hour. He continued to ask clarifying questions about what I wanted, ensuring that I walked out satisfied. The attention he paid to detail really made a difference in my final look, which ended up better than the picture I had shown him. The atmosphere here is very relaxed and homey, with quality music playing in the background and even a mini basketball hoop in the middle of the room. I am very glad I stumbled upon this place and ended up with someone as talented and personable as Chico. I have never been this excited at the thought of going back to get a haircut, which is definitely a testament for everything they're doing right. read more

I love this place! The shop was decorated in the coolest way! Their haircuts are on point! So glad I chose this shop!
