I recently had a great experience with Shelley's Barbershop and wanted to share a well-deserved four-star review. The shop is always clean and well-maintained, which makes a big difference in feeling comfortable right away. The professionalism of the staff really stands out--they're friendly, skilled, and take their time to make sure every cut is done right. Another big plus is the location. It's conveniently situated, making it easy to stop in without going out of your way. Most importantly, my son and my husband both love going there. They consistently leave happy with their haircuts, which says a lot. Overall, Shelley's Barbershop is a reliable, welcoming place with great service. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Fast, friendly service. Shelley was very courteous and did a great job on my haircut. I have a pretty simple cut and she knew exactly what to do. Great conversation and service. I will definitely be coming back to Shelley's. read more

DO NOT GO HERE! A lady with long blonde hair wasn't doing anything when we walked by and my son needed a haircut. He's 4 and has had haircuts multiple times. She gave zero cares about him and did nothing to make sure he was ok. Instead she ended up cutting his ear because she didn't care at all. She's awful!!!! The cut was as awful as the service!! This review was well earned. read more

I went here for a haircut because it was near my job and convenient. Never again will I go somewhere without checking the reviews first. I asked her if she could do my beard and haircut and she did the whole thing in probably less than 5 minutes and couldn't have been less friendly. You would think she was blindfolded by the way I look. Everything is uneven, too long here too short there, and all i wanted something simple. She then shaved my neck w a dull razor I think she just soaks in alcohol instead of changing it. She cut my neck all up and didn't offer any alcohol to disinfect me. Do not risk your health or waste ur money at this place. She should not be cutting hair something is shady about the whole thing. read more

Shelly the barber is a smoker and smells like smoke when sitting in the barber's chair. I always go to the other barber in the shop.

Worst haircut I've had in a long time. Lady seemed bothered by me walking by in. Super rough shaving the neck, no touch at all. Rushed me out the door. Look elsewhere for a quality cut. read more

I should have read Yelp reviews first. I also got by far the worst haircut of my adult life. She did it with a few big gulp passes of the clipper. I imagine a prison haircut would be like that. Then an equally quick neck shave with what felt like a dull razor, leaving scratches / scabs so probably unsafe. Did not offer to let me look at the result, so I only saw the chop job when I got home. read more

My first rating ever. Very nice cut No appointment Unbelievable price Highly recommended!! Jeff read more

I rarely rate any place and honestly hate doing this but I literally just got my hair cut here and in good faith cannot recommend this place. We had a quick conversation which was pleasant, however, I have had an undercut for almost as long as I've been growing my hair out, about 2 years... and today is the day I am forced to shave it all off. It is completely uneven and with almost reckless abandon, the haircut lasted 5 minutes tops. I was literally pulling clumps of hair out after getting it cut here. Luckily it's just hair and it will grow back, but the last thing I expected to do was cut all my hair off today. read more

Shelly's shears are fast and accurate, and the price is reasonable ($14) for a basic cut. Public servants (cops/fire and military) are $10. It had been a couple of years since Shelly cut my hair, but she remembered me and asked about my kids. That's a nice touch. read more

I've been getting my hair cut at Shelley's for almost 13 years, ever since my old barber retired. She always does a fantastic job on my hair. She's always polite and courteous. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. read more

Shelley provides the best haircuts I have ever received. She is friendly and the atmosphere in her shop is very welcoming. No appointment is required - just walk in and she puts her skills to work. I HIGHLY recommend her. My only regret is that I can only give 5 stars instead of 10. read more

Shelley's Barber Shop - Shelley gave me exactly what I asked for! - Barbers Near Me - Manchester, New Hampshire

Literally the worst haircut ever. Took 3 minutes and I had grown my hair out for 15 months. She was done in 3 minutes and butchered it. Never again. No pride In her work whatsoever. read more

It is 2021. I just asked Shelly if she could cut my hair. She said she does not do women's barbershop haircuts. And then she told me to 'go away' Gladly Shelly. I will continue to goto Checker's I guess if you don't want local business. Also, it is 2021. Mind blowing I guess to consider a haircut just a haircut. Maybe they have Fox on at the shop lol! read more

When most people think of a barber shop these days, old dinosaurs who are perhaps no longer steady-handed enough to handle sharp objects come to mind. After all, for most younger people going to beauty school the swirling barber symbol lacks the cache of a hair salon. This fact alone probably makes Shelly an odd duck. She's certainly hip and glam enough to be going the Sassoon route, but the heart of a traditionalist seems to beat within her, she treats her clients to the value and artistry of the barbershop and all the creature comforts that go with it. Shelly is personable and very skilled, she remembers her clients -- even going so far as to remind them what they wanted the last time or the time before that. She can pull off a sweet fade in record time, unlike some places that labor over it like it's an ice sculpture. Though she's quick, she makes your 10-20 minutes in the chair fun with some easy conversation. Shelly's popularity in town used to mean long waits, but after a long and arduous search, she has two chairs open with a very competent associate. If you want a reasonably-priced haircut with no attitude in a casual setting, go see the next great hope for a dying breed. And yep, she uses straight razors with warm shaving cream. Classic. read more

Due to construction, the location of this place has changed. The phone number listed here is incorrect but will direct to the new number. Immediately walking in, we were greeted by an empty front room. When we walked to the back I was told to wait up front. The willingness to greet new customers was poorly lacking. What ultimately convinced me to leave this establishment was a displayed corkboard. On this board were patches of various police organizations. First, I am not often fond of open displays of politics and secondly, I am very disappointed when the politics displayed support aggression and force. All around, a glaring lack of respect for customers and service. read more

Got my hair cut here today. It is by far the worst cut I've ever gotten. I told her I wanted a high fade, skin on the sides and trim the top. She is definitely not a stickler for details. Its all uneven and there is a spot on top that clearly shows she hit it harder with the clippers than the rest because it's shorter! She also never once appeared to be looking to see how it looked overall. I am now actively trying to find a place to fix this disaster asap. read more

Shelley was not only great to talk to, very personable and funny, but she also did a great job on my haircut. I don't give a lot of direction when I get my haircut, I always tell them the same thing "Do whatever you think will look good." Shelley was spot on, I have not been this happy with a haircut in years. read more

I've been getting my hair cut at Shelley's for about 8 years. She offers fast and friendly service. One of the reasons I visit her shop is the shave at the end of the hair cut. Not many places shave the back of the neck any longer. read more

This place does not accept credit/debit cards. My husband received a terrible cut, completely uneven in the back. We had to go elsewhere to have it corrected. read more

My son loves going to this barber shop and will not let anyone else cut his hair. He is only twelve, Shelley is the only one that can cut his very thick hair and make it look nice. Great job! Price is great as well. read more

Shelley is a really down to earth and nice person. She gives a great haircut and does all the little things that all the discount barbershops miss. If you have one haircut with her, you'll keep coming back because she is enjoyable to be around. read more

Super quick, very friendly, straight razor on the neck. Nice and easy, can get in and out and still have time for coffee before going back to the office. read more

My go-to place for a buzz! Love that her new location is wicked close-by. Look sharp, feel sharp!

great job as always, only once did i go elsewhere in the last two years and that will never happen again. Shelly is fast, and pays attention to detail. read more

I have been to Shelley's many times before and she gives very inconsistent cuts. The last time I went she gave me the worst cut I have ever received. One sideburn was an inch longer than the other one. She was on the phone while she was cutting my hair and did not check after. Never going back. read more
