He asked me questions to ensure i was satisfied and that I was getting the haircut that I wanted. This was a great find for me in Downtown Raleigh. This shop just opened 3 months ago. Walk ins Welcome! Just a stones throw from Glenwood Avenue on West Johnson Street. Look for the sign in front and the barber shop Inside the building to the right. Very bright and vibrant shop and Wahhab was very welcoming and great for conversation. If you're a Raleigh local, then you found your new barber shop and if you're a visitor and staying at the Hampton Inn, you'll enjoy the haircut and the warm Welcome from Wahhab just across Glenwood Ave. Love supporting a new business especially one that ensures the comfort and satisfaction of his customers.

He charges a more than reasonable price. The shop is only open mornings and not every day, so you would want to call ahead. He loves fishing and his little place reflects that. You have to walk down several stairs to get to the shop.

With the growing trend of Sportclips's disguised as old-fashioned barber shops, it's important to…read morerecognize the original barbers of Raleigh. Jimmy, at Five Points Barber Shop, is one of them. He's been cutting hair for over 30 years, and he has been cutting my hair for about four. If you don't live in Five Points or in downtown Raleigh, you probably want to try to find a barber closer to you due to limited hours. Jimmy works half the day from 7:30-11:30am Monday-Saturday. Walk-ins only. If you get to the shop within those hours, he'll get to you. You should call ahead to make sure he isn't on vacation or to check the current wait. In general, I would avoid 10:30am on a Saturday morning. 7:30-8am in the middle of the week is usually pretty safe. Make sure to bring some cash. Normal haircuts are $12 and Jimmy appreciates tips so he can afford new fishing or skydiving gear. You can get cash at many places in Five Points, including the gas stations and Wells Fargo. Remember to learn how to talk to your barber. Don't just say "a little bit off the top". Memorize your clipper guards or how many inches you want off the top and sides. If you aren't sure what you want, make sure to tell Jimmy that and he'll work with you by cutting a little bit off at a time.

NOT for BALD guys!…read more I was excited when I saw an old-fashioned barber pole and the place was busy. But that excitement quickly went away. This was the worst head shave I've ever had. No softening up of the hair on your head with hot towels or anything, just buzz your head with clippers, then slather on the cream and go to town with a straight razor. After my head was shaved there was a hot rag on my head for about 20 seconds, but that was it, it was the end of the shave. They didn't have any post-shave balm or even aftershave for my freshly-shorn head. I had to rush back home after the barber visit to my own bathroom in order to apply some moisture to my parched scalp. There was a bit of razor burn on my sideburn area too. I will not be coming back. I haven't yet found a perfect head shave, but Park's Barber Shop in North Raleigh gives a head shave that is much much better than this place. As a side note, I found it kind of odd that they don't even offer face shaves.

I was in town and came here to get a haircut and was rather disappointed…read more First off, I thought it was crazy that they charged $40 for a haircut in apex, North Carolina of all places. I was expecting it to be around $25. It was my mistake to not ask ahead of time but haircuts aren't even this expensive in Manhattan. My barber was a really nice guy, but I asked for a medium skin fade and he cut it way too high and not close enough to the skin. I know it's always a risk when getting a haircut at a new shop but he tried his best. Staff is really friendly but I just can't justify the price being that high for this area
