I have been coming here for awhile. Flerida does a great job. She listens to what you say and gets the details right. Their online booking system works well. read more

Khalid and his barbers are fantastic!! I've been getting haircuts here since June 2022, and they are especially good at fades and blending. I also really appreciate how they understand your "taste" in haircuts and can tailor your cut to be slightly different each season/occasion, if requested. I've had Sandy and Flerida as my primary barbers - and they are both amazing!! I highly recommend this barber shop. read more

Khalid gives one of the best haircuts around. He is professional and perfectionistic. I never leave his shop without looking my very best. Highly recommended. read more

Great spot with a fair price but uuuugh they "dry shaved" the back of my neck and it's now a red, inflamed mess. Most places at least toss a little foam on or something beforehand. Other than all that it was a pretty good haircut, Sandy knows her biz. But no more straight razors. read more

I was able to describe what I wanted and Khalid delivered. That may seem normal, but it is rare finding a barber who understands what you need and delivers. He didn't mess around and did a great job on the haircut and beard trim. I will definitely be back! read more

My teenage sons have been coming to Khalid for years. Before finding Khalid we tried other places but no where else comes close - his place is hands down the best. He nails it everytime. Go here! You won't regret it. read more

Today was my first visit at this barber shop, and I was so happy that they were open today on Sunday. Usually during the week I'm tied up with work events or soccer games. It had been a good two months since we I had a style, and it's been on my mind for a couple of weeks already. My hair is thick, and the back of the hair turns into a mop, instead of growing down like most people. I had been going to the same hair stylist for over fifteen years, but unfortunately for me she recently retired. I felt a really good vibe from the owner who was also working today, and he listened to me and understood exactly what I was looking for. I didn't wait long, and I was seated right in his chair for him to begin his work. He did my hair perfectly, not too short, and tapered around the back and sides! I am super pleased with how my hair looks now. read more

Khalid Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Sandy has cut my hair here for the past 3 years and always does a fantastic job. The vibe here is friendly and chill. I have never exited this place unsatisfied. The shop is conveniently located, adjacent to a metro station with ample on-street parking. read more

Walked in for my son to get a haircut and was seated within 5min. Clean professional and fair pricing for the quality of barbers.

Went on a Sunday morning for an appointment. The business was very clean and the owner and staff were friendly. My complaint is that there wasn't enough perks for the haircut and the price. For $34 plus a $7 tip that I spent, use of a straight razor with a shaving cream or balm around the neck and behind the ears would have greatly appreciated. Along with some type of hair product (gel, pomade, etc.) applied and styled by the barber and even some alcohol/after shave for the end of the haircut. The haircut felt very bare minimum and rushed. The "experience" was not there and I get it more customers more money but some extra perks added to the service and I would comeback and recommend to others. The haircut itself was good but it felt very expensive for what you pay. read more

Khalid is a great barber and super quick (a great haircut!!) when it comes to cutting hair. Him & Sandy make sure you get taken care of! Will be back! read more

I have been going to master barber Khalid for years now. Initially I lived down the street and even though I moved several years ago I still make the drive up 395 to get his help. He's consistently good yet fast and gets the job done despite vague requests sometimes! Anyway, just got married and tried out a new style for the wedding- he nailed it yet again! read more

Barber rushed. $32 haircut done in 15 minutes. Little attention to detail. Fine if you want a very basic cut.

i've been going to Khalid Barber Shop for 5 years now and its by far the best haircut anyone could ask for! Sandy and Khalid know how to leave you satisfied and you'll see why I have only been going to Khalid's for the past 5 years. Arlington is lucky to have Sandy and Khalid! I HIGHLY recommend you get your next hair cut at Khalid's! read more

I was a walk-in. I don't recall the name of my barber but it wasn't Khalid. And he was all business. No jibber-jabber, no hamming it up, or pretending to be my homie. He sat me down, asked me what I wanted it, and got to work. He was efficient and damn good at his craft. I walked out of there in less than 20 minutes with one of the best haircuts I've had in the last 3 years. As an introvert who was on a tight schedule, I appreciated the hell out of that cut. This is my spot now. read more

Khalid is the best! I've been coming to him for several years, he is always my go-to! Great cuts and always on time. Highly recommend to anyone in the area. read more

It was my first time getting a haircut here. I highly recommend Sandy. She was super friendly and talkative. I felt comfortable and got a great haircut. My hair is really difficult to cut since it's so straight but she was able to understand the shape of my head and cut my hair properly. I'll definitely be back! read more

Khalid is the best barber in Arlington!! The storefront is Salon by JC. You can't miss his office as he overlooks Wilson Blvd; right across the street from Golds Gym. He fine-tuned his craft at Willie's Barber Shop, a block down the street. He gives me the best fades, buzz cut. Reasonably priced; fair market value. He has another barber for walk-ins. I highly recommend book an appointment on the Salon by JC app. If you see him as a walk-in, the wait can be lengthy. Support this small business!! He has a strict cancellation policy. Don't be late. I'm highly satisfied with his work. The barber shop is also a new construction as JC just opened up a few years ago. CASH ONLY! read more

Been going to here for years. Khalid is very skilled and efficient. He has great attention to detail. You can tell he cares about getting it right and making you look good. I had tried multiple shops before here, but none were nearly as good. I highly recommend! read more

I've been coming here for the past 2-3yrs. Always reliable and consistent cuts by Khalid. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for the haircut very clean The Best Barber shop in Arlington See you again thank you read more

One and done. First time here and he nailed it with purposely very little info about my likes and dislikes. worth the 50% cost than my usual barbers. read more

Having avoided a haircut for many, many months, wearing a head band or rubber band to deal with it, and wanting to avoid COVID exposure as much as possible, my hair had finally grown out of control. I live in Virginia Square and wanted to find a barber near by. Fortunately, I spotted a relatively new barber shop right near the entrance to the VS metro. I walked in and only had to wait a few minutes before Sandy called me to her chair. She asked a few pertinent questions and began to trim my hair. I had a few trepidations as my long locks fell to the floor. But, when she was finished, I looked like a new and younger man. My initial concerns about my thin hair looking thinner with a haircut were completely unfounded. With Sandy's skill my hair actually looked fuller despite being shorter. Needless to say, compliments have continued from my wife, family and friends. It is one of those things that you wonder why you didn't do it sooner. With Sandy's vision and skill, I feel really good about my hair. read more

Been coming here for years, always an excellent men's haircut. Would definitely recommend it, especially if you live nearby or close to a metro station (it's right by Virginia Square metro). It can get pretty busy for walk-ins, so would recommend making an appointment if you can. And remember to bring cash. read more

Faisal cut my hair and did a great job. He is also friendly and a good listener. Would see Faisal to cut my hair again 4.8/5 stars

This is the best barber I've been to in years, and that includes more expensive salons I've tried. Khalid is a master of his craft and you can tell almost immediately that you're in great hands and he's going to make sure you leave satisfied. I sent a request for an appointment at 9, he responds in 5 minutes saying he could squeeze me in at 945 and then I got a cut and beard trim in 15 minutes that looks perfect. And for just $30! Khalid is a nice guy, but doesn't engage in small talk, which I really like. We aren't here to be friends, just a fella and his barber doing some work. I've also gotten my haircut by Sandy, the other barber that works here and she is also excellent. The only downside is that it's cash only, but I'm happy to oblige for such great cuts and prices. It would be cool, however, if I could pay cash via Venmo or PayPal. That would be the only thing I'd recommend Khalid look into. Regardless, 5 stars all the way! read more

Khalid Barber Shop - Perfect cut for my unruly hair and a beard trim with surgical precision. Khalid knows what he's doing! - Barbers Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Khalid is the only person I trust with my beard. My biggest fear when I started growing my beard was finding someone to touch it up and not completely mess it up. He does amazing haircuts as well. The price isn't bad, not as expensive as some of the other places I've been. Definitely a lot better than other places I've been. Reserve you spot using the Salons by JC app. He also has walk ins, but I'm assuming you'll be waiting quite a while if you don't reserve a spot. read more

I drive from Bethesda to Arlington just to see Khalid. I've done this for the last 15 years. I've watched him grow and become more successful all while maintaining the highest standards with a personal touch. It's so easy to schedule an appointment and he now has other stylists working with him. Best haircut in the DMV. read more

Amine is the man! Just be specific about what you want and he delivers. Been coming for over a year.

Excellent haircut by Amin, efficient and friendly. He managed to cut out a lot of the gray somehow, made me look 10 years younger! I got a straight razor shave too, super close and clean. My wife loves the way I look! I'll be back for sure. Highly recommended! read more

Usually, I think Yelp is pretty accurate when there are more than 100 reviews, but not in this case. Khalid is a totally fine place to get a haircut, but it doesn't deserve five stars. I think that giving three stars is more accurate. It's difficult to get an appointment - Khalid books up pretty far in advance, and you need to take your chances on whether Sandy has a line (it's walk-in only). The place is tiny (it's a mini-studio inside of a collection of studios). So it's an uncomfortable place to wait. There are (sort of) two places to sit. Also presumably because they are so busy, there is plenty of hair on the floor; it's not like there is somebody going around with a broom as there is at a normal place. This place is also cash only. In 2020. When food trucks and Girl Scouts selling cookies take cards. So make sure that you bring like $31 in cash ($26 plus tip). The haircuts are . . . ok. I thought that Sandy did a great job. She listened to what I wanted and delivered exactly, paying close attention to detail. I did not have that experience with Khalid at all. He seemed more interested in staying on time (appointments are 15 minutes). Since we started a couple minutes behind, I was probably in the chair for like 11 or 12 minutes. I wasn't super happy with the resulting haircut either. Nothing about that experience gets five stars. Plenty of people seem to love this place, so they can fight over getting in there. read more

My husband has been going to Khalid for 3 years and actually recruited my brothers and his friends. Khalid does an amazing job with haircuts and straight razor blade beard trims. My husband doesn't trust anybody else but Khalid and is always willing to wait however long at his barber shop. If you want a sick fade and a professional beard trim, go see Khalid. He's the best in the DMV... which explains his long wait time. To catch a short line, go Saturday or Sunday mornings as soon as he opens at 9AM. read more

I am a woman who wears a man's haircut -- a buzz. I made an appointment online for Khalid to cut my hair. When I appeared for my appointment, Khalid declined to cut my hair. He said that for religious reasons he does not cut women's hair. He offered that I could re-book my appointment with his female colleague, but she was not present and I would have had to return. I declined. I suggested Khalid specify on his website that he (himself) will not cut women's hair but he demurred. For reasons of principle I will not return to this shop. read more

Great location and great barbers. Highly recommend coming to Khalid's Barber Shop and going to Aminé. Been going to Aminé for the past 3 years! read more

I've been going to Khalid for over 5yrs now and he's one of the best Barbers in Arlington, VA. They are very safe with Covid-19 protocols and makes you feel safe with masks etc... Not only can he cut a very good skin fade (never had a line or mistake), I've seen Khalid do some awesome beard trims but my wife won't let me grow one but he does awesome work. You can't go wrong with Khalid he'll always take care of you. 5 stars highly recommend his services. read more

Khalid was on vacation, but I got a haircut that was average at best. No neck shave or hot towel. Was cash only which isn't a big deal but I didn't see that posted. I wanted a trim and got a pretty hefty cut. Ugh. read more

I got a great cut here, late on a Sunday afternoon before a thing at the Kennedy Center and I needed to look good. Friendly, no nonsense, even for a walk-in. The location is inside a commercial building, rather hidden among a bunch of "spa" providers, but it's a straight-ahead barber shop. These guys know their craft and I got a one of my best cuts... and I went in with unusually long hair, but Khalid brought it back down short and crisp just the way I like it. THESE GUYS KNOW THEIR CRAFT. Will consider another trip to DC just to get a trim. read more
