Found out about this barber shop right here on Yelp and decided to give 'em a try. I'd been interested in finding a true barber shop after a great experience at one in Augusta, GA last year, and I'd definitely consider this an excellent one. It's very clean inside, all the barbers are very friendly and skilled, and the prices are VERY nice. They only do walk-ins by a take-a-number system. When I went, there was only one person waiting in front of me, so it didn't take long at all. While I was waiting, I watched the barbers working, and was already impressed by their work. Clean lines, very even fading, and all of them paid loads of attention to detail. They know their stuff! When it was my turn, I told my barber (whose name I unfortunately forgot to ask) what I was wanting, and he asked a few questions about details before going right to work. He also cleaned up my facial hair super nicely. The end result? Even better than I'd expected! He did a fantastic job and even my lady was impressed. And all this for only $25! I think I've found my barber shop. So chances are high that I'll be stopping back by for my next cut. I got a great cut at an unbeatable price and had a great experience. Exactly what I was looking for! read more

Steve Urkel comment.. vibe was off. I decided to not stop by and get a shape up. Maybe consider potential clients don't want to be judged while walking down the sidewalk . Do better read more

I couldn't be happier with my haircut, beard trim and shave. Within 10 minutes, my barber (Nazim) had my hot shave and haircut underway. He asked what I was looking for and got it on the first stry. Great steady hand, took care of all of the spots that tell a guys age - ears, brows, nostrills. The space is comfy and there's a great camaraderie among the barbers. Definitely will be back read more

Quiet and focused staff. Easy check out. Early afternoon on a weekday was a good time to get a available guy barber. Quality haircuts. Polite staff. Clean facility. Adjacent free parking. Tricky to find though. I did not see their main entrance when I turned in/off Lexington. Look for electronic 'open' sign hanging in window, read more

They do great work, BUT how is $60/Cut "budget friendly"...How about $35-$40, so $45-$50 with tip??

Unfortunately I went this barbershop around 5 times and they gave me a good haircut maybe 3 of the times but the last haircut I got at this barbershop was awful - I would expect decent quality most of the time but when the barbers here mess up they REALLY mess up read more

This location rocks don't get me wrong but inconsistent and wait times are sad. I dropped my son off @ 4:15 got a ticket. Came back 2 hours later, my son still isn't cut, people who weren't even here or came after my son was gone or getting cut when I got back. The number my son had was bypassed 10 times. Ridiculous! I spend to much money at this barbershop and tip often when I can but then has shown me that they don't care about customers.They'll talk through yo haircut constantly stopping. I've now been here 3hours. Just sad! They'll take their own people before taking care of other customers. I'll never return here, time to look for a new barber. But it's not like that care anyway. read more

Nice environment, friendly, great haircut, reasonably priced. Convenient location. Not a lot of silly gab, which I especially appreciated

Came down to visit family in Cincinnati and needed a quick haircut; so came across One Way Barbershop. Very clean and friendly atmosphere and staff. They have the "take a number" system and when it's your turn, they will call your number - very systematic and organized. Got called and cut by Robert, very well-spoken and professional barber. We spoke briefly about pretty much everything. Overall, I was very happy with the location (10-12 mins drive), the ambiance, the staff, the price and of course my barber - thank you so much Robert for taking care of my haircut! If anyone is looking for a reasonably priced barbershop with some skilled barbers, One Way Barbershop is the place to go! Will definitely come here for my cut, next time I'm in Cincinnati. read more

just went here last night and CHRIS does not know how to cut a trim. I asked for a quarter of an inch/half inch off the top and back and barley touch the sides bc they curl and when I got back it was so uneven and he almost cut all the hair off 1 side and didn't touch the other. this was the WORST haircut I've ever gotten. I had to go back to another barber to fix it and now I have a mullet not by choice. do NOT go to chris read more

Orhan (i am sure i am misspelling his name, sorry!) was so meticulous when he was cutting my hair and trimming/shaping my beard this morning. Everything felt crisp and clean. Seeing how much care and precision he put into his work put my mind at ease and made for a very comfortable experience overall. read more

I grew my hair out for 7 months so I came for a cut and I show the guy(Adam) a reference of a guy with a middle part down near his eyebrows and i said I wanted it below my eyebrows and it ended up being no where near my eyebrows. read more

One of if not the best barber shops in Cincinnati area. Very few places you can go and no matter who cuts your hair it's always a stellar cut and reasonably priced. read more

Once and regular and now I will look for other places. Unless the nice black lady is there. Asked for a mid skin fade with the business owner Nazim. and got pushed all the way up to the top of my head. Barber knew it was bad and on top of everything charged me 32 dollars when I have been going for 25 dollars every single time I have been there. Same cut. Very dissatisfied and look forward to wearing a hat for the next month. Never had a worse haircut in my life and im sad that its from my once favorite shop. read more

My husband have a long black hair the guy who cut his hair is just excellent at it, the service is great, the place is really nice!! And the price is the best !! The ask about what you want and that great read more

I came here once and the haircut was solid, super clean looking. The barber was nice, made me uneasy when he didn't know how to find my part though. But my biggest concern was when I saw he didn't sanitize any of his stuff, just gross thinking of clippers going straight from one head to another. But overall a nice cut read more

I have been here several times now, and all of my cuts were good. Everyone here seems very nice and a little quiet. But fun music is usually playing plus a few TVs on ESPN. Shok cut my hair the last 2 times I've been in, and both were excellent. Last time, I asked him to reshape my beard, fix my lines, and shave my neck. I felt like a million bucks, but the prices are lower than any other barber I've been to in years. Which makes being a generous tipper so easy and fun. read more

Walk in and got in the chair pretty quickly. Wasn't please with the barber hospitality and began to make fun of the way my beard was growing. Shave off the whole thing and mess up my hair. Took about 10 mins to do it. Will not be returning anytime read more

Alright y'all heard it here first this is the barbershop to hit up in Cincy. Been thru many shops and many haircuts and can easily label this spot in the top tier. Walk-in friendly with the best operating hours I've seen, super chill vibe inside, easy location, and extremely professional and friendly service. And here's what's up - the haircuts.. are 100% solid. That clean blurry fade can be elusive, especially at places here in this city, right? Well trust me, this spot delivers. Even waited until I'd gone multiple times before posting a review and the consistency has been there. I can tell you from experience not many places out here doing it as right as this one - I bet you'll be as happy as I am that this spot opened up. Easy 5 stars, 10/10 would recommend if you're looking for that fresh cut. read more

Seems like most of them are not licensed barbers and are learning on the job. I've gotten a couple good haircuts there but several very bad haircuts. read more

Clean barbershop. Nice barbers, but was pretty quiet. I wanted a faded Mohawk and the barber I had didn't seem to understand what I was asking for, so I showed a picture to try to explain. Needless to say, as you can see from the pics, he must of really didn't understand what I wanted. My hair looks bad. I will say the other haircuts that I witnessed looked good, but my assumption is that he just didn't know how to do the cut I wanted. I wish he would of said that instead of going through with the cut because now I'm out more money to go somewhere to get it fixed. I will say that he also made the comment that he was tired to his coworker, so that too could of been why my hair looks like the way it does. Pictures don't really show how bad it is. In person, it looks terrible! read more

Naz cut my hair about over a week ago and it was probably the best cut I have ever had. It looks great after a good amount of time and I can tell he takes his work seriously. The other employees there also do a great job and treat everyone great. I would highly recommend this barber shop and I will definitely be going back. Hopefully I get put on the instagram again. read more

Never gotten a bad haircut here. Cheap, easy, my guy Nas will get you right. Don't sleep on one way!

My boyfriend loves this place! It's super chill, not expensive, and they do a really good job.

This is the best barbershop I've ever been to, hands-down, and I've been to several in NYC, LA and everywhere in between. I got my usual taper, finished off with a hot towel and razor blade finish. Not only was the haircut incredible, but he was the nicest barber I've ever had. This is an extremely reputable shop, owned by a hard-working family man who just moved to Cincy. It just opened up this week, so don't let the low number of reviews turn you off. Once you come here, you won't want to go anywhere else. I absolutely will be coming back. This shop will make a name for itself! read more

Got a great haircut and great service here. Definitely recommend and will stop by again.

I needed a haircut on the fly. It was a Sunday, so most of the barbershops were closed. Thankfully, I happened upon One Way Barbershop. I called them up to get some info. They were incredibly nice, and said there's only a couple of people waiting currently, come on down! The barbershop itself is very nice, and clean. The music isn't too loud, and there is plenty of seating. I had no problem finding a parking space. As I waited, I happened to notice that every haircut looked great! I started feeling very optimistic. The person who cut my hair is Fairdin. He asked me what I wanted, and I said I wanted a fade, and whatever you think is best. I also asked about the skin fade, which they advertise. He explained the skin fade, made a recommendation, and said, "I will take care of you." Fairdin's confidence, attention to detail, and overall pleasant demeanor made me feel I was getting my hair cut by a professional. When he finished cutting my hair, he put on an aftershave that smelled so good! The quintessential barber shop scent. When all was said and done, he turned my chair around, and held up the mirror. This was the best haircut I have ever gotten, hands down! On top of all that, I was offered a free drink before leaving. I walked out of there smelling great, a smile on my face, and feeling like a million bucks! I highly recommend One Way Barbershop. I will definitely go back. Thanks One Way Barbershop for a wonderful experience, and an amazing cut! read more

Finally!!! A great barber in the area. I've gone to several barbers in Norwood , Oakley, and surrounding areas trying to find a barber close to our new home, that my son actually likes going to, and that can cut my mixed sons hair. Its been horrible , I ended up driving almost 40 min away to his old barber! Nazim has done an amazing job. His shop is clean, WELCOMING, and they take cards which is huge plus for me. read more

I walked in for a haircut and was lucky enough to have Nazim cut my hair. He did a great job on my hair, was funny, and personable. I'm looking forward to getting my hair cut here again. read more

I've been trying to find a new barber in town for months and walked in the One Way this morning. Could not be happier that I did! I got the cleanest fade and beard line up from Faredin. Perfect edges, beard blended into the fade beautifully. He's a master and the nicest guy. Highly recommend these guys, they're the real deal. Thank you Faredin!!! read more

I gotta say, this has gotta be the dopest spot in town to get your fresh on--top notch fads & cuts, very clean establishment, & top rated customer service!! If I could give these folks 6 stars I would! read more

Where do I start!? The owner is an awesome guy and he will hook you up with an awesome cut! He gave me the best haircut of my life. It's a super laid back atmosphere with TV's, great music and free soda! It's super convenient for Xavier students and you will get a fantastic cut for $20. I couldn't recommend this place more! read more

Best barbershop in the Cincinnati area! Quick easy walk in appointments, nice and close to Xavier University. Great barber and great haircut. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice barber and a nice haircut. Xavier students, you need to go here. 5 min walk from campus and it's easily the best barber in this area! read more

I've looked all over the city for a barbershop that can do a proper/classic skin fade and honestly haven't found one... until I tried One Way. I have been three times now and am more than happy with my haircuts. The staff is friendly and the wizardry they perform with those clippers is insane! Honestly the best haircuts I have ever had. I have definitely found my new go-to barbershop and I would highly recommend checking it out, especially if you like slick and classic barbershop cuts. read more

I had an excellent experience at one way. The hair cuts are fast, cheap, and great. I would highly recommend one way to any Norwood resident or Xavier student. read more

Yesterday was first time going to One Way Barbershop... and it most definitely WON'T be my last! I walked in and was instantly greeted at the door by the owner. He then introduced me to my stylist Erin, which let me just say did a great job. She asked my what I wanted and I simply showed her a picture from google and said "something like this??". She replied no problem and got to work. Keep in mind I showed up at this shop at 6:15pm when the shop closes at 7:00pm. Time flew as Erin worked on my hair and beard I talked with owner and got to know him a little. Before I knew it Erin was done with my new lookI couldn't be happier. I paid and walked outside only to find out it was 7:20pm. THE FACT THAT I wasn't rushed once, the stylist took her time, and the owner stayed and talked to me all after the store was supposed to close blew my mind!! Great customer service, great place, great people. They have a new life long customer here! But hey don't take my word it, GO CHECK THEM OUT! You won't be disappointed. read more

Great spot for Xavier students to a get quality haircut. I got the exact cut I was looking for and the barber is super friendly!

Erin got me in before a night out and I would say it's the best hair and beard cutting I have had in this city. I just found my new barbershop. read more
