I can't say enough good things about the dudes who run this hole-in-the-wall barber shop. My 3 year old is a handful when it comes to haircuts and we had been taking him to a kiddie place that charges way too much for basically crew cuts. Every time we asked them to do something else, he walked out with the same high and tight military cut as the last time. And he would scream and fuss and be miserable. Every. Single. Time. We decided to try taking him with his daddy to Classic Gentleman. I came with in case he needed wrangling while dad was getting his cut, but it wasn't necessary at all. The shop owner, Vern, immediately put him at ease by plying him with candies. Now every time we go, my son sees the booster seat getting put on the chair and RUNS over saying, "it's my turn!" I worried that I would feel weird hanging or in and old school barbershop (aka dude country) but both Vern and Patrick are totally chill. They also always remember you. We love this place! read more

Congratulations! This is the best and greatest barbershop in all the Universe, You are very lucky! I've been coming here for haircuts since 1973. All these barbers are over the top the best of the best.

Most of my friends who have moved away drop in here for the same wonderful haircuts they knew before. Always a great and relaxing experience. Emily is the supreme best barber. Enjoy!

In town for work, and needed a haircut and a shave. This place turns out to be the best barber shop I've ever been to in my life the staff was friendly, the atmosphere is awesome. The service was impeccable. This will be my barber shop whenever I am in town. read more

Love this place. The space is genuine and you can bet Vern has a good playlist going anytime you're there. Really enjoy the atmosphere and hanging out and chatting with the barbers. Do yourself a favor and get a cut and clean shave just to make yourself feel pretty. You won't regret it. read more

It had been way too long since my last haircut. David to the rescue! This place has it all. I always have anxiety about finding a new Barber / Stylist, but this place delivered on everything: fast, friendly, affordable, knew what I wanted and was able to follow through with a better haircut than I even expected. When I got home my wife said it was the best haircut I have ever got! And that says a lot, because I've spent ridiculous amounts on haircuts before that were nowhere near is nice. I'll be back regularly. Highly recommended for everyone! read more

This is a legitimate old school barber shop, even down to the vintage barber chairs that they have. I grew up going to a nearby barber shop in the 80s/90s and the chairs from that shop have made their way here. It's no frills shop and they do a great job! I've gone here a few times for a straight razor head shave and they do an amazing job. Even though I live in California, and only come in when I'm into town they always remember my name and welcome me like a regular. read more

The Classic Gentleman - Dirty hippies may have to wait to get services here.. - Barbers Near Me - Kearns, Utah

So my husband went here on Thursday. He needed a haircut and a beard trim. Vern got him in right away and gave him the best haircut he's had in a really long time. Vern understood both what I wanted and what my husband wanted and did exactly that! The conversation was great and the music was on point. This shop reminds me of when my dad would go to the barber when I was a kid. I strongly recommend going here! read more

This place is great! Emily cuts all 3 of my kids' hair and it always looks great! She's nice and friendly and the kids like playing w Jack (the dog) while they wait their turn. My dad recommended this place to me because he (and his dad) both get their hair cut here as well. 3 generations found a true gem! read more

It was a beautiful day and I admire the great conversation. I recommend this place 100%. If you have time in your day, stop by and receive a phenomenal adventure with The Classic Gentlemen. read more

The hair cutter was a super nice, laidback guy. I received a lot of good advice about hair, which is great. The haircut overall was decent! Ask for Rayn! read more

These guys are awesome! If you are looking for a great old school barber you found the place. They take their time making sure your hair looks just right and even if there's a wait you can just grab a soda from the fridge and enjoy the conversation. Plus it's affordable only 13 bucks for a cut. This is definitely my go to barbershop now. read more

Great place. Great community vibe. Feels a lot like family. Easy to make an appointment on their website.

Cute lil place. Been there once and a young man did a killer job shaving my beard with a nice fade too. Next time in, the owner of the shop made fun of my man bun, then grandma did an extremely half fast job with my beard. Won't be coming back! Still tipped grandma good tho hope she's doing well read more

I was in town for the weekend and needed a haircut. Vern is now one of my favorite barbers ever! This place is awesome.

After coming here many times, I realized that I have never reviewed it online. So, here it goes.... this shop is not your ordinary barbershop but, that's the good part. They are sometimes irreverent, but always tremendously entertaining. It can't be too bad because my dad brings 2 of my nephews in frequently. The banter back-and-forth between the barbers and customers is awesome. It provides an awesome atmosphere. Kinda like the Barbershop version of the "Cheers bar". Most customers are greeted by name. Mine seems to usually be MISSSter Osborn! But that's the social aspect of the shop. The functional aspect is just as good.... there are several barbers there now, because they are so good, they expanded a few doors down from the same location it had been in for 50 or so years. As a result, you can get served by several different barbers and find one that works best for you. Really, if you can speak and tell them what you want, you can't go wrong with any barber you'd get. Vern has done well with his vision of what a Barber shop should be. My advice would be.... GO THERE. read more

This place was a good little dive to go into. They offer a military discount and had me in and out. They have me a brief history of the joint and it was nice to know I was supporting a long standing family business. Got a beard trim and would happily stop in here again. read more

So neat, so patient and detail! Even the finish up was perfect! Love this place so much. The owner was very friendly, hilarious, and absolutely knows what he's doing! I definitely recommend this place! read more

The haircuts are okay but what irked me today was a comment made by Patrick (one of the barbers). After asking me if I was a veteran and asking where I went, he asked if I have PTSD. I brushed it off however he laughed and I was like WTF? That is completely unprofessional and I have decided to take my business elsewhere. Despite the fact they take their time, it doesn't amount to quality. I miss Blackie, Dan and Gay. read more

Have been here a few times now. Place has a great vibe with good music. Doesn't matter who cuts my hair, they all do a great job and make you feel welcome when you are there. I will keep going back. read more

This place is legit! Finding a good barber that can shape a beard is hard to come by. I would highly recommend this place!
