Hanif is an amazing barber and between the concierge, detailing and amazing haircut, could not recommend this place higher! Be aware of traffic issues (no issue on the part of the business) and plan accordingly. Get there a bit early to enjoy their full service. I have always gone to chain haircut establishments (Supercuts, SportsClips, even The Barbers here locally), but never had a cut where the barber attended to all my details as much as possible, and even accommodated my request for less talking. I didn't want to be rude, but haircuts give me anxiety, so less talking makes things better for me. Hanif is great, and I love that local establishments like this still exist. 100/100 would recommend. read more

Went in with just an idea of a hair cut, and many questions later, I left with that haircut. They are happy to do revisions the first few days, and I was able to walk in the next day to have it cut a little shorter. Cool space and comfortable chairs. Coffee and food surround so make a morning of it, they open early. read more

Crazy.... man... so I call them to make an appointment at 12. Boom confirmed.... arrived 10 minutes early... they go ahead and pull someone else off the couch after I had already had an appointment. That's not all... these guys were nice enough to tell me they were running behind... cool I can understand a haircut going a little long than 12? But a whole another person dang.... dang..... this gets better. I go home, go to sleep because I work nights. And I wake up to missed calls from him, missed text that were very rude. Then he had the audacity to do something illegal.... I wrote a review about the situation which is the reason for the missed calls and text. But he decided to get my personal buisness involved.... lol we work with police and do investigations which is possibly the dumbest thing someone can do. But here we are. After my own little investigation. The texts and calls came straight from the owner himself . He even named the fake review on my company page on Google his cell phones CALLER ID ‍‍.... knowing it was illegal what he did I'm happy he deleted it immediately because a court date would of been set swiftly.... As a business owner.. you make mistakes and learn and grow... you get a bad review oh well. The last thing you ever do is go off on your customers because they left 1 bad review. It's part of owning a business... not everyone is going to like your service. Crazy world we live in. Crazy how you can admit to the crime too. Smh.... YIKES not looking good for you. read more

Tonsor - Here's scissorwork posting his fake review on my COMPANY website! - Barbers Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Great atmosphere, great people would definitely recommend. I'll be back next time I'm in town and the cut was perfect

Review for Straight-blade shave & design work. I am new to the area and started calling for someone "skilled" enough to do a proper straight-blade shave and facial hair design work; think "Tony Stark" from Iron Man. Bineito answered the phone and said he was available. I loved the space--it was clean and well-lit. Bineito was cool and friendly, and we started talking about exactly what I wanted; I provided a photo for reference. That being said, I quickly determined that he'd never done facial hair design work, but I decided to take a chance since I was there. Bineito made me feel comfortable & got to work establishing the framework on my face. I could tell he was highly focused on doing this appointment right, which I appreciated. The owner (HaNeef / sorry for spelling if I'm wrong) rolled in and introduced himself. Again, the business's examples of friendliness and professionalism were on display. He even gave Bineito some guidance on technique, which I'm cool with. After two hot towels and lathering, he got to work and banged out what I wanted. He was about 95% accurate, which is excellent considering it was his first time doing this particular request. The whole appointment was about 75/80 minutes. All in all, I had a great experience & got what I wanted. I'll be back. read more

My husband met Haniff at the Farmer's Market and since then my husband looks great THANK YOU Haniff is incredibly skilled, professional, compassionate and authentic. Prior to Tonsor my husband would jump around near by places and never knew what he wanted. He tried Haniff after scheduling the following week, reshaped his beard to better angled and adjusted his hair. Now, we will not go anywhere else. So much so that Haniff did our entire wedding party before our big day. Haniff also gave our son his first straight razor shave which if we are being honest, is becoming a man moment. From a scrappy hippie kid to clean polished and ready for prom. The shop is clean and well decorated. I've personally sat in the waiting area as my husband was finishing and was able to ease drop on real conversations and witness his skill and how we supports his team. I highly recommend Haniff and his team. It's top notch what he is building. read more

Rude owner that gets defensive when you don't not approve of their haircuts. The fade was not even and was not blended in at all. They took off much more if the top than I had requested. Apart from that, this is not normal Barber talk he has here. When there are children and women in the waiting area, it certainly does not stop him or his staff from being vulgar and brass . read more

Hanif has a professional yet relaxing establishment. I'm a buyer. Has great products in stock as well, for after care. Definitely getting my business going forward . Thanks, Hanif! read more

Took way too long, way overpriced, average job. I could have gone to Supercuts and saved an hour.

I understand limitations, but also appreciate grace with situations that are outside the norm. Extenuating circumstances if you will. Considering that, Tonsor has poor customer service in my book. My boyfriend had to miss his appointment to take me to the ER. He called before to see if he could change it to an open slot later that day (same day, was still very excited to go), and was told he'd have to take the no-show fee and book another appointment. Seeing as we were in the middle of something more pressing, he decided to call back later. After everything settled he called again to see if he'd be able to take the later slot - that was still open - to get his haircut in lieu of his earlier appointment. He explained that I'd had a medical emergency and he'd taken me to the ER, but there was no consideration of any kind given for the situation. I'm a little disheartened for him considering he'd been looking for a nice place to get his haircuts since we moved. I really thought he'd found the place and was excited considering we like to support local businesses. read more

Came in earlier at 3pm and told me no walk-In is available but gave me an appointment for 5pm I arrive 10 mins early and have a seat only to find out the appointment isn't an appointment rather a suggestion. Makes no sense and they tell me wait an hour for another opening which someone else might make an "appointment" for. Terrible customer service. read more

In town for a conference and happened to walk by; Hanif and Shai welcomed me as a walk-in and even offered me something to drink while I waited. Shai did an outstanding job with my head shave while Hanif played some great music on vinyl and saw to several of his regular customers. Both Shai and Hanif take pride in their work and it shows. If I lived locally I'd definitely be a regular! read more

As promised Hanif, He gave a great hair cut I will not and cannot say anything about that. however his cancellation policy and business ethics are a little extreme. 100 dollars for a missed appointment in my mind was a little rough, and after explaining what had happened to cause that missed appointment... I didn't cancel the charge. The policy is the policy. So read up on that. However.. reaching out to me on my personal number which he grabbed from his booking app to confront me on a one star review that wasn't left by me.. that's the poor business ethics. I have attached the screen shot. I do not appreciate this type of "business" what so ever. read more

Tonsor - Conversation between owner and I. - Barbers Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

I scheduled an appointment, to have a master at clippers, as Barber's are, to fix my undercut. I want to grow most of my old undercut out while starting a new undercut design. I tried to have a beauty shop handle the undercut, however, the Beauty shop was more concerned with vanity and making a girl pretty than giving me, the customer, what I asked for. I showed Hanif what I wanted and the response was perfect, "that's it? I got you!" That's all I needed to hear and I won't allow anyone else to touch my head with clippers! read more

Hanif has skills. I haven't needed a new barber for several years but when I needed to find a new one, I tried here first. I am really glad I did. I didn't really know what I wanted, but he hooked me up with a great cut and beard trim. He knows how to trim a beard, mine has never looked better. I also love the style of this place, great atmosphere, and good books if you're waiting for your turn. It's cash only as well and I made the mistake of not bringing any but I was saved by the ATM they have in the back. My next appointment is already booked and will not be looking for a new barber anymore. Thank you for the great work, Hanif! You're the best. read more

Tonsor - I have never had such a good cut or beard trim. - Barbers Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

I just moved to Vancouver a few weeks back and was really stressing about finding a solid barber in the area. I'm very happy i stopped in and got a cut from Benito at Tonsor. He was incredibly skilled and took his time with every aspect of the cut. I know some places that would charge double for a haircut of this quality. They also have a great atmosphere in their shop, especially for first timers. I will definitely be going back! read more

First time trying out their shop and I can say I was not disappointed! My barber was Shai and for an apprentice she was very professional and knew what she was doing. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a refreshing and satisfying experience. read more

I recently tried Tonsor Labs' Beard Balm and Oil, and they are fantastic! The balm provides a great hold without being greasy, and the oil keeps my beard soft and shiny. read more

Awe Great cut, great atmosphere. I got a shave and a cut and it was super cool and relaxing. They brought me back to life after covid and now I don't think I can go any where else. Thank you Imhotep. read more

Hanif is the man and always aims to create a great experience. Hard to find a real barber who can give the cut I'm looking for. He listens to what you want and makes sure you're happy with the cut. The only barber I'll go to now and he always does an outstanding job. I leave there feeling like a new man! read more

First time at the place loved it nice interior , the people were social just the nicest! I got what I was looking for struggled to find a place like this just moved here and just loved it. If you are looking for quality this is the place and if you are like me I will pay anything to look good and have what Is liked highly recomend this place definately will be back. read more

I've been seeing my man Hanif for years now and just let me say that I don't plan on ever going anywhere different. No matter what you ask for, I've had a few different types of cuts, he does it perfect and you can tell he loves what he does. He's a cool, knowledgeable guy who you can talk to for hours so it's always enjoyable going. The decor is 10/10 as well, just an awesome looking place. Highly recommend tonsor if you're looking for a fresh cut. read more

I am always impressed by this high end barbershop experience! Fantastic service, great ambiance, and ideal results. Tonsor has five stars for a reason - check them out. read more

Best barber in town! Hanif is a master at his craft! This combined with an impeccably clean and upbeat environment adds to the whole experience. read more

I needed a last minute haircut and Tonsor was as able to get me in the same day. All I can say is I had the best barbershop experience from the moment I walked through the door and I can't wait to be back! I'm definitely sending my friends and family here. read more

We recently moved to Vancouver and my husband had gone to several barbers/salons with subpar results. We finally found Hanif at Tonsor and my husband loves it! His cuts have never been better. I know my husband looks forward to his time there since he talks highly of Hanif. Very clean and well thought out/stylish salon. read more

Tonsor - Barbers Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

First time cut was good. 2nd time fade was trash. I was looking forward to my cut before my Miami trip and what a disappointment from the dude form Maryland. He cut my hair to short , uneven and fade was not blended properly and not even. The owner tried to fix it but damage was done. Was looking for a dope spot that would be consistent but last cut was a great let down. read more

Hanif and Geoff are amazing. They worked on my kids, both are autistic. And my boys look great. My oldest was super impressed. The atmosphere Is fantastic, dope books for sale, and the folks working the shop are legit. I'm more than happy with my boys' cuts and they're already planning their next visits. Thanks Hanif, and Geoff read more

Poor quality haircut for the price. Owner did not wear a mask during appointment. Wildly inappropriate conversation with clientele ie conspiracy theories. And recent news report of anti-humanistic behavior (see The Columbian's news story below). Overall, poor experience. Do not recommend. https://www.columbian.com/news/2020/sep/23/owner-of-vancouver-barbershop-accused-of-threats/ read more

I had shoulder length curly locks for 4 years, when the day came to part ways I went to Hanif in April 2019. Hanif got straight to it and gave me a perfect fade, didn't even tell him what I wanted. Since that day no one has touched my hair besides Hanif! He will make your hair look good no matter what you tell him. Worth it every time. read more

Best barbershop in PDX area. Quality conversation, people, tunes -- an absolutely ill book collection. Hanif adds life, talent, and a true old school, speaking philosophy, working on the next enlightenment, salon to where it's desperately needed in downtown Vancouver. Will always be back. read more

This place is a great place to get a trim or a cut. I've been getting Hanif to trim my beard since he worked at Vancouver Barber company. His new spot has came a long way, and will continue to have my business and anyone else I can talk into getting trimmed up here. This place is how a barber shop should. Good people, good conversation. read more

Wonderful skills and great service! Loved the professionalism and kind spirit. Definitely recommended!

Our family loves visiting Hanif to get the guys' hair cut. After trying out several other barbers Hanif is the only one our son will let cut his hair. He's extremely patient with our little man when he moves/wiggles and doesn't talk down to him or ignore him. I also personally love his beard trimming skills for my husbands ridiculously thick and fast growing beard. His razor skills are phenomenal! read more

Hanif is a true Professional. Barbering at its finest. He combines rare skill and intelligence to create an atmosphere at Tonsor that is unmatched. If you want to experience the luxury art of barbering, visit Tonsor. read more

Great atmosphere and solid conversation. Hanif took his time and made sure to get an idea of what I wanted, even if I didn't have a specific idea coming in. I will be returning when it's time for my next cut! read more

Tonsor is the best Barber shop in town! From the profound owner, to the sales of eye opening books, the hair cut is nothing but top notch. I call this barber shop "our shop" because Hanif the owner is so hospitable and accommodating. The owner started from a humble beginnings and he's done well for himself while being kind to his customers as well. They have never missed any of my appointments and I have never had any complaints about my haircuts. An apprentice of this shop cut my hair one time and I was scared he'd mess my hair up but guess what, it came out amazing. If you're in Vancouver WA, you must visit this shop to get an experience of the best barber shop in town. read more

Hanif, THANK YOU for an epic barbershop experience. You know from our first meeting that I'm a barbering and razor and male grooming products geek. Coming into the house of a professional who has pride and passion in a work I so highly respect is one of the greatest pleasures I have had. Green Bay has Hansel Canady, who is young and hip, and almost a younger version of you. He has all the talent, the passion, the eye for detail and commitment to his clients. But he has a lot to learn yet before he will be at your level of sheer barbering expertise. He will be there, no doubt. The entire Packers team has him keeping them looking sharp. I thought I was going to miss him but I was lucky enough to go from the apprentice to the teacher. Vancouver, you have some good barbers and you are so lucky to have Hanif settle here to practice his pro-level scissor and blade witchcraft. Worth every minute. I'm bringing samples next time. Barbers pretty much need to use creams so these soaps will be for personal use. The latest from The Club/Ariana & Evans will blow your mind. If you love that high level of performance you get from Art Of Shaving creams you'll be amazed at the lather coming off a $15 puck of Peter's latest soap base. It's soft enough that you can actually lather it in a bowl while your client is under the towel. Amazing stuff that softens skin as it softens hairs and is the absolute shit when it comes to scent. You could be the exclusive Port/Van retailer of some of the world's greatest shaving products for home use. I don't sell the stuff but I know Peter makes the very best lather I've ever used--and I personally have many indeed. I'll also bring you some TOBS cream so you can compare it to similar AOS stuff. Personally I think they are close to equal scent wise and performance wise. But TOBS gets the nod because hey, it's got that Royal Warrant and it costs a third of the price. I'll also bring a couple razors that are perfect companions for your clients' home shave routines. My own personal stash. I'm not a salesman. I'm an evangelist. My job is done when my friend refuses to ever again shave with a can of aerosol goo from the grocery store or pay $2.50-$4 for a non-recyclable razor blade cartridge. When they throw $50 into a good DE razor and some good blades, get a nice tub of cream or soap, matching aftershave, a bottle of witch hazel and maybe a good balm, I call it a success because they will soon be getting up 20 minutes earlier every day for the enjoyment of a shave that used to be an unpleasant chore. We can't get a real barber shave very often, but the amazing array of upgrades for the personal shaving experience is almost limitless, and can fill the gap between visits to the Tonsorial Parlor with amazing, healthy, fragrant and relaxing moments at home. Every good barber has an opportunity to open this world for his clients. It may be an exclusive selection of software with traditional shaving creams, soaps, splashes and balms and a couple of high quality inexpensive razors and blades to help carry home the high end feel you get at the shop. I don't know if you want to carry inventory beyond the usual barbering staple pomades and beard products but very few shops have any of this stuff and generally the people who dig it cluster around good barbers. You've got a ready customer base. See you in a month. read more

I hadn't had a hair cut in months because of covid I kind of let my appearance be less of a concern. Last week I decided it's time I take care of myself. I've been to many barber shops in the past and the experience always felt rushed like I was just a number rather than an individual. I was referred by a close friend about Tonsor and the moment I walked in the door I was greeted with a smile. Hanif asked me my name and referred to me by that throughout the entire experience. Not only did he do an amazing job with my hair but I was enlightened by intelligent and informative conversation. I have to say, I have found my barber and don't plan on switching. read more

Super cool, fresh barber shop in downtown. Light and bright, with a tasty blend of vintage and modern. Hanif, the owner, is a very charismatic guy, who is passionate about what he's building, and about giving a great haircut. I brought my super reluctant teenage son in for a haircut. Hanif did a great job engaging him and helping him feel comfortable, and (I think) a little more engaged in the process of caring for his appearance. The haircut looks amazing, and pretty much styles itself. I'm so glad we tried this new place. We'll definitely be back. read more
