besides great cuts she is very positive & up person. i come all the way from downtown portland. look forward to needing haircut. read more

Great haircut. She listened to what I wanted and it came out great. Will be going back for sure.

Joe does excellent work. She recently moved her shop next door to 12 NE 2nd from 10 NE 2nd. Nicer space. I was happy with the price as well.

Super Awesome Jeremiah trimmed my beard and trimmed my hair... Its perfect.. he enjoys what he does and yes the place opens at 5 am for all you prior military buddies.. super awesome barber shop Aloha read more

See all

This was my third time getting my hair cut with Jo. After she cut off half of my left eyebrow while trimming it but my hair cut looked NOTHING like the picture I showed her. I don't know why she would do this then ask me if I liked it. I can only assume that I am not welcome and now I have to get a fix cut because I don't want her anywhere near my head again. BUYER BEWARE! read more

This is the worst place I have ever experienced to get your haircut. The names does everything vanishing... It would be best for all of Gresham in the state of Oregon if this place disappeared and vanished altogether. The positive reviews likely came from the person and no longer works there... A younger guy who understood what it means to do a fade. I got a dumb ass looking undercut that I am likely going to have to go get another haircut to try and get it fixed. This is the worst place ever... Have I said that already? Avoid at all costs unless you don't value your hair or you just want someone to shave your head read more

Jeremiah did my husband's hair. Have him the full TLC and ol fashion experience. My husband is usually very nervous about how his hair is done, but it's too reserved to describe how he likes it. Jeremiah NAILED it! Gorgeous undercut, beautiful part, clean edges (not too sharp) and a nice clean neck with fade. Put him at ease! My husband looks so good, I'm going to have to marry him again. Can't stop lookin at him! read more

I don't have much hair left, so going to a salon to get a haircut is like taking an old VW to a Bugatti shop - what's the point. Walking into the Vanishing American Barber Shop is like taking a trip to Mayberry, and dropping by Floyd's barber shop - a little glass store front with an old fashioned barber pole on the wall. It's a one chair affair, and on Saturday the locals show up for a trim - little league in tow. I wait my turn and listen to long-time customers, old friends and neighbors, joke, tease and gossip. Like I said, there isn't much anyone can do for my hair, but a trim doesn't cost much, and my neighbors are entertaining. I also like knowing the money stays in my community. read more

They are so nice there!! And on top of that! They know how to cut hair! Got my cut from jo! And she is the nicest. Knows what shes doing! Ask about their organic hair products! I bought one read more

I got a good haircut from Jimmy, the owner. He took his time and did a quality job; I asked him about his shop, and he's owned it for quite a few years. His shop has a friendly vibe. I'd recommend stopping by. read more

Been going here for years. I am very picky and ended up here. If you want a picture of a celebrity on the back of your head and done in purple this might not be your shop. For me, Jo does a terrific job. read more

Great value haircut. Neal makes his politics clear, wasn't looking for a political conversation. Very nice man, good Barber. Left him a large tip! read more

Best Barber shop in town! I had an interview a couple weeks back and needed a haircut. Originally went to a big chain haircut shop and they totally messed up my haircut. It was so bad I didn't think any barber would have been able to fix it. Lucky I ended up stopping by here and Joe was able to completely fix my hair. Her prices are more than fair and the customer service is amazing and last but not least her haircuts are amazing! Defiantly recommend! read more

Joe did an amazing job on both of my boys' back to school cuts! I told her exactly what I wanted and saw my words come full circle with the cut being exactly as I had requested! Even with my oldest having giggling fits everytime she touched his neck, she still got the job done. Love the shop & all the cute things in it. Joe was professional and fun. Great place for family cuts! read more

Loved this place. Joe is great, her attention to detail is impressive. She'll listen to what you ask for, and you can expect you'll get it. Today was my first time, and will continue to go and support this place from now on. read more

Went for my first time and wasn't sure what to expect. I couldn't have been happier when I was finished! A very charming shop and Jo was a delight to visit with. I love the traditional service and I will definitely be back! read more

Great home town barber shop for classic haircuts. $15 for what would cost $25+ at Bishops or downtown. She does shaves, beard trimming, and will clean you up with a straight razor and hot towel if you tip well. read more

Nicole Leatherman formally from The Troutdale Barber Shop is the newest addition to this great barber shop!!!!!!!! Look for the red door around the corner of Main St on 2nd Ave. read more

Joe did a great job on giving my husband a haircut and trim he wanted on his beard. She is super friendly and professional. Great attention to detail. The husband was extremely nervous going in (has had bad trims before) but left with a smile on his face! Definitely recommended! read more

My dad recommended this place to us, we were looking for a place to take our 4yr old son. Joe did such a great job! Our son is a bit unsure about getting his haircut and she was so good with him! This is by far the best cut he's had, and such a good deal! We will definitely be back read more

My son's long blonde curly hair was butchered by the lady at this location. My husband says he told her to trim his hair and shave the sides a bit and she says he told her something different. Either way she made a crown ponytail, trimmed his hair from the ponytail (which is uneven), and shave all his hair off (which is also uneven) with the lowest setting. She stated that she just did what she was told, but my husband states he didn't say to shave that high up. My biggest problem is she is the professional and if she thought that wasn't a good idea (which she stated on the phone) then start small and see if that is what they meant cause maybe (like she said on the phone) he didn't explain right before you do something you take back. Instead he now he has very little curls and not enough hair to cover his bald head 2 weeks before school pictures. Words can't even express how disappointed I am. read more

Vanishing American Barber Shop - Uneven shave of my poor son's head - Barbers Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

The cut was great, the conversation and friendliness was great, the price was low. You can't beat it!

This guy is rad and makes my stupid hair look good.

Absolutely the best hands down, the service and quality, I'm speechless, I've been to alot of the barber shops in Portland and Gresham and this was by far the best place, good old fashioned style, hot toweled and straight razored to perfection. I will not go any where else from now on. read more

No Stars!!! This place is 'vanishing' all right. I don't know who the moron was who cut my hair today but he sure did mess it up!!! And on top of that...they only take cash. I shouldn't have gone back after going to the bank, but I did. This place is a total joke. Anyone who goes here deserves what they get. read more
