    Brought my 9 year old boy to have a hair cut. Their service was really fast! (After reading other's reviews , I believe thats Tom cut my son's hair). He took his time to cut his hair, listened to what and how I like, very friendly gentleman. This place is a gem. $20+tips, very reasonable. Thank you

    Formerly Thom's Barber Shop in Ala Moana their new location, simply called The Barbers, is across from the mall on Kona st. It's in the same building as Taste Tea, Sweet Creams, and Manichi Ramen. The new place is quite a bit smaller and has a few less chairs (I think I counted 8) but many of the same barbers are still there and with a few new ones as well. I'm glad Joanne is still there, she's in the first chair on the right as you walk in. They've been open from February 1st, 2020 and like with any new place, they're still doing some organizing but the place seems pretty well laid out already. I'm not sure yet if their hours will be different but they did open at 8am this morning (Monday) which is great for me since I can stop by there to get a haircut after I get out of work in the mornings. One thing they did mention was the a/c for the building needed to be worked on so it doesn't get as cool as it should be. Until it does, I'd recommend going for a haircut in the morning hours before it gets too warm in the later afternoons. The shop is in the two story yellow building and the parking lot entrance is on Kona st between Ke'eaumoku and Kona Iki. There's a good amount of parking so that shouldn't be a problem.

    Tom and Tam are excellent! Tom specializes in men's haircuts and Tam does men's and women's.

    Don't go to the "barber" in this chair!

    Avoid the "barber" in the back of the room at all costs! I told her #2 on the sides and back but leave at least 2" on the top and front. She nodded like she understood. She ended up cutting EVERYTHING 1/4"! The thing is I didn't walk in with that style haircut!! Most guys want the same style they walk in with except shorter!!! What she did wasn't even close!!!! Even though English is obviously not her first language, I don't think that was the problem. I don't think she knows how to cut hair any other way. I would bet that the other one star review was for the same barber. I got a haircut at this location before from another barber and it was fine. I will be going back but it won't be a problem for me if asked to say, "Any barber except HER" (pointing to the only chair against the back wall). Needless to say, I am VERY upset.

    Quick and easy place to get a man's haircut at a reasonable price. Quan Tran is the barber I prefer and has cut my hair for years. He does a great job and is very personable. This is a new location opened by the owner of Thom's Barbershop that used to be in Ala Moana Center. Although no longer in the mall, they are on a side street connected to the mall and very easy to get to. Even if you plan on just shopping in the mall, all you need to do is cross Kona street and bam, you are there. Not much has changed, just the location. Waits are not long if there is a line, but you can always make an appointment if you have a preferred barber. The location is a brighter shop with windows that allow lots of natural light unlike the old location that was next to the parking garage. Forget those chain barbers, you will get a better cut here at a good price. Those new trendy barbershops are way to expensive. Unless you are going for some sort of a fashion model look, keep it real and get cut here.

    Shop hours.

I don't know what he'd do if he found out I touch Jerry's hair! - Cosmo Kramer, Gino Seinfeld da Scene: left the Bay Area without a cut for the holidays and needed one badly by New Year's... the Usual Suspects were booked till next week, so I Yelp!-d up this spot and checked IG's to see who I could trust. Didn't find Gino, but... da Cut: Jaden sat me down 10 min. early asked a few questions and got to work. I could tell just by the way he was lining things up with a wet comb that I was gonna be good. He took his time, paused at certain points to have me check his work. Meticulous and precise he started up top w/ scissor work, combing, measuring snipping; really taking his time. Moving to the clippers, he was just as careful and line things up nice, taking 10 years off my old head! da Service: building has very little street parking, but does have a robot parking structure, supported by Valet; w/ validation, only $4!! No way you get that in Oakland. Penthouse HNL is on the 3rd floor, smooth check-in, already paid when booked online, super easy. I was a little scared, it was all young "kids" working; I'm not quite looking to be K-pop star. But Jaden had the sensibility to gauge what I was looking for and still bring me up to date a bit. Will look for this spot on the next visit... and much mahalos to Jaden for helping me "keep the old man out"

    Great Service! Convenient and accommodating…read more Excellent artistry very talented Jaden is so talented thank you for being so awesome to me and my kids! We adore you!

    1/2 I was introduced…read moreto A's Barber Shop by my longtime hairstylist. His haircuts had gone up to around $60, and since I usually get a simple cut, he suggested I look for something more affordable. A friend recommended this place, and I've been coming here since. When I first started, haircuts were $20 -- now they're $22, which is still a great price. If you're looking for a straightforward, no-frills neighborhood barber shop, this is a solid option. The cuts aren't high-end or super detailed, but they do a good, clean job that gets the job done. For the value and consistency, it's hard to complain. Definitely a strong 4.5 stars.

    Well, as luck would have it, I find myself back in Honolulu again, needing a beard trim as I have…read moresome business appointments and an event coming up this weekend. And after two very successful trips to A's barbershop, we thought we'd give it a third try again and it just keeps getting better. Today my beard was trimmed by Kat, who is just incredible with a fantastic attitude, master skills, And an attention to detail that's getting rarer to find these days. Parking was a breeze in the back and I waited no longer than 10 minutes to get into a chair and have my beard serviced without an appointment. I'll be back for sure. And just glad to have found a permanent barbershop that does fantastic work for an incredible price. Look forward to moving back home soon and sitting in that chair more often. Mahalo again Kat and the A's barbershop team!

    Jon was my son's barber. My teen is kinda picky but he loved his cut and learned about a hard line…read moreand other descriptive aspects of his preferred style. I watched how Jon didn't rush through the process and did multiple steps to obtain a really perfect style!! I have to admit until he was on the last few steps I was cringing at the bowl cut, but nope he took it up in segments to create a perfect line and fade while having the balanced length on top. The vibe here is chill and cool. My son said he's coming back to Jon for all his future cuts!! I totally agree and recommend!!

    I really needed a haircut before going back to work on the mainland. I like trying new barbershops…read morewhen I'm on the island and I had never been to Premier. I looked through the pictures and took note of the names of the barbers who came up the most. John was available early on Monday, so I booked the appointment. I told him I needed all the length on top cut short since it was bugging me...LOL! Buzzed the sides and blended it all and it was short on top! I felt like a new man! A younger man...I also read he was good with kids, so I pretty much fit right in! LOL! We had a great conversation about where we lived and work and it was a great experience. Mahalo!
