Best men's haircut in town!!! Fair priced and dependable. Rob also offers great hair products! read more

Sloppy. Not the hair cut you ask for (1st & 2nd visit). No skill with a low fade or cutting sides. Side of my head was patchy as fuck. Around the ears cut is laughable. Laughable attempt at a fade And low fade. Go get some hair cut lessons (fades) Put better lighting so you can see. If you don't know to cut a certain way let us know. If you forgot what we asked for ask again. read more

This was my fourth trip to see Rob. The last three have been spaced 3 weeks apart. I'm not sure if I've ever had a hair cut that regularly. I love it though. Rob does a great job and in the last three visits he has hit the magic formula. If you want a dependable, professional,dedicated barber, I cannot recommend Rob's Chop Shop highly enough. Do yourself a solid and just... Go! read more

Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic conversation, and the best barber I've been to in all my 63 years. If you want a GREAT haircut from a real barber, not a "stylist", this is the place. Rob is actually a third generation Barber, following in his father's and grandfather's footsteps. And more than enough cool decor to make waiting a breeze. read more

Rob's Chop Shop - Barbers Near Me - Dallas, Texas

For a man, changing barber shops is like changing a car, its no easy task. Rob's is a warm, cozy and friendly barbershop. Its an experience one looks forward to. read more

I am new to the city and am incredibly glad that I found Rob's! He has been cutting hair for a long time and it shows! I received a great, traditional haircut, and had some great conversation to boot! The warm towel and straight razor shave on the back of the neck was a nice touch. A really unique shop that is hard to beat. Rob is very professional and takes pride in his work and his shop. I will definitely be returning in the future for another cut! read more

One Man Show!! Rob is the man to go to for a haircut in Dallas... After holding off on finding a barber in Dallas, I finally decided to let Yelp guide my decision. While there are multiple barbers/salons that are rated high, Rob's Chop Shop stood out because most (if not all) reviewers vouched that Rob was their go to guy. Plus, his shop was voted on the top in D Magazine/other voting articles. So, I second the statement that other reviewers have made, and while I am in Dallas, I will return to Rob for a haircut. His shop is located on Parry Ave. For people driving, you can park on 1st/2nd Ave or Exposition. I recommend calling in and making an appointment early as I mentioned he is one barber and caters to one client at a time. Also note that it is a Gentleman's establishment (no funky business in here, just a male sanctuary where you can have a beer, kick back, get a haircut, and have some guy chat) so please respect the protocol. As I mentioned, he offers you free beer/water while you wait/get a haircut and indulges in some great conversation. The shop is vintage/classy and Rob has his own line of hair/beard products. Now on to the cut, I told Rob what I wanted and he went to work. Almost 60 minutes for my cut, Rob was meticulous and precise and his experience was apparent. A warm shaving cream and straight razor trim ended the cut followed by a quick massage of the shoulders and neck (hand held massager which does its job well too). He used beard oil and an aftershave and I was done with a perfect cut that received a lot of compliments by my friends. Admission and price is worth it. Cash only (I paid $30 for my cut). Also, there is an in-house shoe shine booth, which wasn't staffed the day I went in... I will be back without a doubt when I am in Dallas. read more

My 17 year old boy finally got a haircut he liked from Rob. He had refused to get a hair cut after so many disappointments for a year. He now has his place. Thanks Rob! read more

I only let Rob cut my hair. Exceeds expectations every time. I've strayed from time to time only to get an inferior cut (I live an hour away!). It's worth the drive trust me. And the vibes are great - old school aesthetic (music and decor) that transports you back to a simpler time. Give Rob a shot - you won't go anywhere else after. read more

Had the pleasure of getting a haircut and beard trim from Rob today. Rob did a great job and has a cool environment. Extremely nice and professional, definitely recommend visiting him. read more

Had a great time and a GREAT haircut! I went with Rob for my first time here and he crushed it. Super slick, strong attention to detail, and asked for my feedback multiple times throughout the process. Would highly recommend! read more

Best barber shop in Dallas. Rob has excellent attention to detail and knows how to perfect your look. Great man and great haircut. Come check it out! read more

I moved to Dallas and was recommended Rob's by a shop I had gone to for years in OKC. Having to find a new barber terrified me. However, my expectations for Rob's were not only met but heavily exceeded. I've gone back religiously and have gotten a haircut in every chair at Rob's. Although every barber does fantastic work, the stores namesake, Rob is the man with the plan. Truly don't have enough great things to say from his attention to detail to his calm, nonchalant demeanour that makes one feel they're talking to a friend. This place is old-school barbering done right, and a refreshing escape from franchise salons/barbers that lack passion in their craft. If you need a haircut in the DFW area, this is the place to go. read more

They never disappoint. Always welcoming. Haven't had this many haircuts in such short periods of times. They keep me looking fresh.

Rob's Chop Shop is the Real Deal. This is what the "prefab barbershops" try to be and cant... you'll know the difference immediately ...When I walked in the door.... greatness all around. Rob greets you right then, you settle in and admire what a great vibe the shop has.... This is what you want. Excellent all the way around and I've had haircuts from here to the opposite side of the world and today my entire experience was OUTSTANDING. Outstanding quality, price, conversation, vibe... terrific! First thing my wife said when I got home was this is the best my hair has ever looked... and she's seen me with a variety of different looks.... she gives Rob and big thumbs up as well!! I'll be back in 3 weeks to keep it looking great. read more

Updated review: Reached out to the business manager and she indicated that a refund had already been started for the trim. That refund posted to my account today. I appreciate the awareness of the snafu and the actions taken to make things right. Thank you! read more

Rob's Chop Shop - great cut! - Barbers Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I was spending the day with my husband for his birthday and one of the things we were doing was getting his hair cut. I walked in with him and was planing on staying until the owner who only spoke to my husband but not me said " This is a gentleman's establishment. Only for gentleman." My husband asked if that meant I'm not allowed to stay here and then the owner said yes and suggested that I go wait at a coffee shop. I've never been kicked out of an establishment for being a women so that was a first! Not sure what's gentlemanly about that and why it would even matter if a women was there. I know they are going for a certain theme but I think some things like sexism should be kept in the past. After having to apologize to me on his behalf my husband won't be coming back. read more

Best barbershop in Dallas. Rob is an artist with hair and his shop is like a time machine to the old days. Classic old school barbershop with a lot of history. Not much more I could ask. New to the city but I'm so glad I found Rob to be my barber. read more

I started going to Rob when I moved back to Dallas in 2015. Until then, I never had a barber I was a regular customer to, quite frankly, bc I didn't care much until going to Rob's. He keeps the shop cleaner than Ive ever seen. They are Very professional and rob is a master of the craft. I hear the same for the second barber there as well (I believe his name is Elliott). Also, if you're a fan of classic rock and roll or appreciation of vintage/collectibles, you'll love this place. I believe his wife was the mastermind of it all...if I remember that correctly, she did a hell of a job in there. Couldn't recommend this spot any more! I especially appreciate their hard work through these difficult times during the pandemic. read more

Got my boys in for some amazing cuts that saved the day in short notice. Best cuts they've ever had.... Literally! They looked amazing and the barber shop is really cool! Highly recommend! read more

Rob is the absolute best Barber on the planet! He is like a Jedi master dealing with men's hair and beards. I have been looking for such my entire life and have now found it. read more

Rob is the best. I can't think of any other business in Dallas I would recommend more.

Decided I needed to find a new barber and started looking around. I found a one seat barber in Fair Park and did some research. What can I say except AMAZING! Rob is someone that is dedicated to his craft and knows what he's doing. He owns a one seat barber stop across from Fair Park. He's been in that location and next door for over 20 years. Easy to get to right off the Dart or you can grab a parking pass from him if you decide to drive. Just return it when you are done. Cool shop, music and atmosphere. Lots of rock and roll memorabilia on the walls and even got to enjoy a cold Deep Ellum IPA while I got a cut. The classic gentlemen s cut was of the best fades I've had and the top was trimmed up so that it can grow out a little bit longer. Came out looking amazing and wanting to go back in a few weeks or so! TIP: He'll tell you this most probably when you book as he answers the phones but its cash only. Keep up the great work Rob!

Let me tell you. I hit Dallas 12 years ago, and spent many of those 12 years looking for someone who knew how to cut men's hair. I went to every shop and every barber that a friend would recommend. I personally thought they were lousy. If a barber has to cut my hair with clippers and a #6 guard, or whatever, I'm not interested. Scissors or nothing is my motto. Well, toward Christmas, I learned that a fellow from my home town of Galveston, had won one accolade after another -- D Magazine, Texas Monthly, etc. -- as Dallas' best barber, so I decided to give Rob a try. Guess what! I finally found a barber!!! A real barber! Shaves your neck! You will, too. His shop is over by Fair Park, and it's interesting in its own right. He plays great blues music, there are cases of barber memorabilia, and pictures on the wall of everything imaginable. It's a classy barber shop....reminds me of the old Jack's of Dallas that was on Preston at NW Highway 45 years ago. Go see Rob. He works only by appointment, so you'll need to call him. But you're in for a treat AND a great hair cut. read more

Great haircut. Awful, unpleasant customer service. Had the appointment at 3:30pm yesterday. He finishes last haircut at 3:55 and takes 5 mins to clean the floor. He began with me at 4:00. I am a busy man, I had to cancel a meeting. 15 mins in, the next appointment arrives. He waits. 4:35 and next appointment arrives. He now has 2 guys waiting. He rushes to finish my haircut. I remind him that I also wanted a bear trim and edges. He rushes to edge it up with the shaving machine. I felt like I was just a mere sack of 25 dollars. BTW, and FYI .. I am walking the red carpet at the Oscar's this Sunday. I really wanted to look great for it and now I'll have to find someone else to finish what Rob didn't finish. read more

I have been to Rob's a few times in the past and he was very friendly to My family & I. Last Thursday I called Rob and scheduled an appointment with him for the next day @ 7:30 PM. That Friday we drove from N Dallas and when I arrived at Rob's with my son & wife tagging along, we walked in and Rob greeted us as we walked in. He was cutting one man's hair and there were a few more men waiting in front of me. When I walked up to his "desk" he was looking confused at his appointment book when I told him I had a 7:30 appointment. He then looked up at me and said that my wife would have to leave because he runs a "Gentlemen s Establishment'. I asked if he was joking, and he replied with "No, MEN ONLY". Needless to say, I walked out very angry. Now, I understand that he owns his own business and reserves the rights to refuse service to anyone, but I feel that is a very unprofessional manner to conduct business. In hindsight, I feel he may have forgot to schedule me and tried to play it off in that way. Which is also VERY unprofessional. If his business is "MEN ONLY", that should be the case all the time & he should specify that on his website and/or storefront. read more

I called last week and made the first available appointment as a new client, which was one week later. Unexpectedly, I had to go out of town on business. In the rush to make my trip, I completely forgot to call and cancel my appointment. 100% my fault and my mistake. 10 minutes into the scheduled appointment, I got a call from Rob asking me if I was going to be able to make it in. I apologized for the oversight. I get it, it was my totally my fault, and I said as much on the phone. After apologizing to Rob for missing the appointment, he told me in no uncertain terms to that I would be better off going somewhere else for a haircut as I didn't respect his trying to run a business. If you've never been late or missed an appointment, or if you place the same emphasis on getting a haircut as you would finding a cure for cancer or scheduling surgery, then this is the place for you. However, don't screw up because you might not be lucky enough to be asked to come back again. I'm sorry, but there is no way Rob's skills are so good that I'd feel the need to put up with that attitude. read more

Walked out with one of the worst haircuts in my life. Enjoyed the free beer and the conversations but highly dissatisfied with the very expensive haircut. I had to find creative ways to comb my hair and find time to go to another barber to fix. Would not go back even if offered a free cut. Not worth it. read more

I like a man with a good pomp and Rob does a fantastic job on 1950's style hair. He mainly cuts men's hair but styles a few ladies as well. He also travels the globe, mainly Germany to show his stuff. He also makes his own pomade concoction that smells incredible. Appointments only. read more

For most of my life I paid $50-plus for a good haircut. But since genetics has determined that will no longer be necessary, I now have less hair and more money in my pocket thanks to (genetics and) Rob's Chop Shop. This Fair Park institution is a great place for a "man's" haircut and Rob is just the man for the job. He is an expert in classic cuts including mine which is now the Jason Statham (a.k.a The Trainsporter). Instead of $60 per cut from an Uptown salon, I now pay $20 plus tip and for a superior technician. Rob is not only a coiffurier of the first order, but also a highly-respected rockabilly deejay who tours with The Stray Cats and a classic car enthusiast. He always has a great story to tell and he even makes his own hair tonic (Rob's Hip Hair Tonic) and pomade. How cool is that? One step into RCS and you step into another era from the autographed photos of rockabilly greats hanging on the wall to the nudie magazines in the racks (not an In Touch, In Style, Us or a Teen People to be found). It's not just the cut, it's also the experience. read more

My father was dissatisfied with a service, but Management has reached out to rectify the issue which was much appreciated. read more

Great, classic barber shop. Has cold beer in the fridge and great music as well. Rob's been in the game for 20+ years so he knows what he's doing. It was my first time there (I just moved to Dallas) so right as I sat in the chair, he took a moment to study how my hair fell. Top notch hair cut from a top notch barber. Keep the girlfriends and wives at home though as it is a men's shop. Will definitely be going back for my cuts in the future. There's even a house shoe shiner. His name is Randy, if I remember correctly. He's got jokes and stories for days so you have some entertainment while you're getting your cut. Check this place out. You'll be glad you did. read more

Been going to Rob for a couple years now. A true gentleman's establishment. He has a selection of t shirts, vintage wear, and fine selection of pomades (be it his own line or hard to find.) I find myself proud to be one of his regulars. Come and you'll be greeted with a hand shake and a beer. Rob created a place to get a haircut and a place to have good conversation and an escape from the hustle and bustle of the big city. read more

Attention to detail is my headline. Yep, five star rating - as good as it gets. I am 45 years old and have had my share of haircuts. I have tried the 150 dollar cut when I was in NYC on advice from an X - down to the 15 dollar Supercuts which WAS my go to previously. No frills quick in and out. I am a changed man. Rob has been in the biz for long long time. Some 20 plus years if I remember right. I am a professional but like a little edge. "How do you want your haircut I am asked".....oh half inch off maybe, trim, and I will leave it up to you man, you're the professional. Best haircut ever - and I am not the one that said that. My friends asked, complimented, and said where, etc etc? Really..... Clipped, straight razor, ears, styled, courteous, good convo, tunes, and a little machine to massage your shoulders thereafter (no homo) - dude knows what he is doing. Bottom line: worth it. Customer for life here. Make an appointment though - Rob fills up a couple days in front and now I know why. PS: Get the styling cream - Great sent. (Good sense of humor too - check the ingreds) Out. read more

When you're looking for an authentic, classic, men's barbershop experience, Rob's Chop Shop is the real thing. Best of all, when you call to make an appointment, Rob answers the phone. When you show up to get cleaned up, Rob offers you a beer while you wait. You may enter the door in a hurry, but you'll leave wishing you could stay a little longer. You won't book an appointment online because Rob wants to take your order himself. Bottom line: there's a reason Rob's Chop Shop receives so many accolades--Rob is passionate about what he does. read more

Rob is the man! This is THE best traditional barber and the best barbershop you'll find in Dallas. I've gone to a few guys since moving to the DFW area but nothing felt right. From the first cut, Rob hit it out of the park. The place is a proper barbershop with the right ambience, music and a solid barber. This place is my go-to place and I will be recommending this to all my friends. If you're looking for an authentic, classic, men's barbershop experience call Rob and make an appointment today. Plus, you get a beer while you wait :) Bottom line: Do yourself a favor, look fresh and get cut by Rob. P.S. Great taste in music. read more

Once you go to Rob's you will feel underserved at any other barber shop! He seriously makes you feel at home as soon as you walk in. His shop has the best style, ultimate mans getaway. While waiting for your appointment, you can check out his book/magazine collection, his barber shop antiques, posters, and more. He will fix you up and will not rush you out for more money, he will do whatever you need! I got a fade and it was perfect. Service and experience all was perfect. Rob is a 3rd generation barber and makes his own hair products too, so this guy knows what he is doing. If you are a guy needing a gentleman's cut or just want a top notch cut, go to Rob's! (Without ladies of course, don't be a turd and being girls knowing that's it's meant for guys only!) read more

Best haircut in years. I screwed up and arrived a week early for my appointment and Rob accommodated me. The place is a great place to relax without all the frills of another place. Rob knows how to cut hair and that is the most important thing in my book. read more

Rob's Chop Shop - Barbers Near Me - Dallas, Texas

There's not much I can add to the information in the other reviews, but I have to cancel out the one-star dropped by the reviewer below who thought Rob's is a place to bring women or kids: this is where men go to be men, if you want to hang out with the ladies, go to a salon in the mall and get your nails painted. Men only, and we like it that way. Rob is a crucial component to Dallas rockabilly subculture. He tours Europe, spinning 45s and cutting heads. He's world famous for a reason! Ask him about his '49 Ford, classic truck and other badass vehicles. Pick up some t-shirts, stickers, hair grease and other swag. Listen to some tunes and shoot the shit. Read a playboy (for the articles of course), and walk out lighter and kooler than you went in. By appointment only! read more

Located in Fair Park, Rob's Chop Shop is the place to go in Dallas for a great men's haircut and it is a great value too. Forget trusting your hair to a chain like Super Cuts or Sports Clips and do you really think you have to go to a place like Toni & Guy to get a great cut or do you just feel like paying a lot of money. Don't even get me started on places like Floyd's Barbershop... with the manufactured atmosphere that is about authentic as the kid who thinks he is punk rock because he bought a Black Flag t-shirt at Hot Topics in the mall. While Rob can give you that duck-tail or pompadour that you always wanted, he can also cut just about any style. Plus Rob also makes his own line of grease and hair tonic and carries hard to find pomades. Great atmosphere in a great neighborhood (stop by the Meridian Room next door and grab a drink or some good food). Rob only takes cash and while he will try to fit in walk-ins it is best to call for an appointment. When I need to get my hair did... I only trust Rob. read more
