We came to V's for my 10 year old son because he wanted a cut that the childrens salon couldn't get right. I had booked an appointment with Mike. My son explained that he wanted a low taper fade, Mike seemed to understand. We left with a happy boy. Mike took his time and was very precise. At check out they even offered my son a hot wheels car. That was very sweet. His haircut was $29. We will definitely be back for his next haircut. Thanks! read more

this is the worst barbershop to go to in Scottsdale. I went. They don't know how to cut curly hair after saying all their barbers can cut curly hair they lied to my face so I tried this place out I just moved from Florida and there's good barbers there and but this guy didn't even line me up. He's horrible and when I got there he's like oh I have another client in 15 minutes. I don't know if I'm gonna be able to finish your cut what is that supposed to mean and like everyone is just like weird and they're overpriced as hell they charge me $20 to align my goat tee which was barely even there and it's just such a waste of money definitely go to downtown to the real barbers not this fake ass barbershop. this place isn't lucky that I stood up and walked out of the barbershop after he cut my hair because straight garbage. read more

My 7-yo is normally a disaster when he gets his hair cut, but Andy did such a great job! The cut looks great and he even got a massage and hot towel. The hubs got a shave and cut with Regina and he was so relaxed he just about dozed off. Great location and cool new owners! read more

Decided to give this place a second chance after our first bad experience, but NEVER AGAIN. I think they try to compete against each other for the fastest haircut and we were sadly one of the guinea pigs. My haircut is pretty standard, taper cut on the sides and back. My hair is semi-curly so the top needs a good trim to keep it from being unruly. I don't think the barber spent even one minute on the top, then added some gel for "definition". My hair should ideally be about 1-1/2" on top with a fresh cut. Instead it is 1" in some spots, 3" in others. My family says it doesn't even look like a haircut was done, PERIOD! Then to make it worse, I made a reservation and the cost was clearly $35, but he charged me $40 when I was there. I asked him about that and his only response was "SOORRRRYY!" read more

We went into V's today to give our son his first hair cut and Regina S gave our son the CUTEST first hair cut. We asked her to shorten the sides after we had checked out. She was so accommodating and knowledgeable on cutting his hair. Our son loved her. She even gave him a certificate of first hair cut and a comb. We will definitely be going back! Thanks Regina! read more

I would not recommend going here, EVER. All of these negative reviews are the evidence you need to make your decision here. My dad & I used to come here regularly when we lived here. We moved away for some years and are back now. I have a big wedding coming up and trusted that Eduard could do a great job like I remembered so many years ago. Wow, was I just disappointed. I just barely left, and upon getting into my car I waved my hand through my hair to find a Hand Full of Loose Hair from the back of my head, along with uneven lengths on each side. Shocked, I went back inside for a blow dry or some kind of remedy. He came out from the back and scoffed at me, surprised that I was unhappy. Well, guess what Ed, this is why my family and our community stopped coming here. Because of your lack of patience and skill. Not to mention the completely unprofessional attitude. I will be informing my 400+ community residents nearby to spread the word to their friends to avoid this place too. read more

Having been a long time customer of V's (Kierland), I was pretty surprised/stunned at the butcher job of a haircut that I received at this location. I am constantly warned by my regular barber (on vacation), that most barbers DO NOT know how to cut long hair. Boy, were his words prophetic. I was crystal clear with Regina before I sat down, that 1), I don't like short hair, and 2) to leave it long enough to cover the tops of my ear. She did neither, and I told her so in very blunt terms. She did a terrible job of drying my hair as well, and then combing it out. She actually asked me if she wanted my hair blown dry?? Huh?? I wasn't going to walk out wet?!? Please beware before getting a cut here, that you are crystal clear about what you want, and do not sit in Regina's chair. I guess what really surprised me, was that she kept defending her poor work. She just could not see, more likely refused to see how poorly she performed. read more

This location is under new ownership and it shows! Great customer service and attention to detail. We will definitely become regulars now, as requested by my 12 year old son. He's hard to please so I'm very happy to have found 'our spot' and will happily recommend! read more

The new ownership is great the place feels brighter. I come here to see Regina but have had a cut with other barbers and they are all great. Highly recommend. read more

The service and cut are too notch. My husband loves the small touches that make him feel like a king. We will be back

Just look at this fresh cut smile. My son has Down Syndrome and has some sensory needs but he loves sitting in that chair.

My nephew and sister who live in Surprise drove all the way to Desert Ridge for my nephew's haircut. My nephew did his research and found that the reviews at this location were great and made an appointment with Regina. When my family arrived both Regina and the male barber were rude, disrespectful, and dismissive. Regina did not even see my nephew and told the male barber to work with him. My nephew was trying to explain the haircut he wanted and my nephew is 13 and the male barber was rude and said you clearly don't know what you want. It is unbelievable that individuals would treat people a certain way when they should be all about customer service. My family ended up leaving and made the hour drive back. I would never recommend this place. I can't even put 1 star it's that bad but I have to to post it. read more

This is my barber shop. it's super convenient if you lover in desert ridge. It used to be $25 and now it's more like $35. Still a great deal. Regina is my barber and she does a great job. I would recommend this for anyone who wants a great, inexpensive and quick haircut. read more

REGINA NEEDS TO BE FIRED! It makes me sad to have to leave this review because, typically, at other locations, I've had a great experience, but as I see here, others have had similar experiences with Regina. First of all, she was EXTREMELY rude and disrespectful. The backhanded and snarky comments were unbelievable and insulting. She made not just a few but countless ignorant and insulting comments to me and then proceeded to give me one of the worst haircuts I've ever had in MY LIFE. Do something about Regina immediately, its time for her to find a new job read more

My boyfriend went in today for a low taper fade and had an older lady cut his hair. She was extremely rude, made multiple ignorant comments and insulted the haircut he wanted. After my boyfriend showed her pictures that Andy, another barber there did last time, she made it clear she wasn't capable of finishing his hair cut even though "she had been cutting hair for 48 years". She made him pay for his haircut before Andy was able to actually complete it knowing she had messed up. She exclaimed to the whole barber shop that Andy needed to fix it because "he wants his hairline halfway up his head". Andy, then had to fix the mistakes she made and finish the haircut. (She's an older woman, has black hair and wears glasses) I'd highly recommend staying away from her if you want an enjoyable experience. read more

Do NOT go here. Unbelievable. My son got his haircut at the Desert Ridge location on Friday by Eduard and it's sooo uneven. He's 9, he sits perfectly still, there is no excuse for this. When he left the barbershop on Friday, the barber completely plastered it with hair gel so we didn't realize how uneven it was. So I left work early Tuesday to take him to get it fixed as the hours Online say open til 6pm. The door has a paper sign that says open until 5pm, well we arrived at 4:30 to a locked door. She (maybe Regina) came out and told us they close at 5 but lock their doors at 4:30. I said fine but can you please just quickly straighten out the front of his hair as it is clearly SO uneven. She said no but that I could come back tomorrow. How she could turn us away and not fix this problem! And it was still within their posted open hours. There's also so much hair on the back of his neck that should have been clean shaven. See pics. We will never go back here and I'd advise you don't go either. Terrible customer service, and terrible hair cut. read more

I have gone to V's Barbershop for over 10 years now...Eduard is one of the best around! He gives a great cut...and does it quite quickly! Would recommend!! read more

Just dont make the mistake I've made giving them a second chance, First time I ever cut here the guy was on his computer talking bout "ya bro I do swing trading you see that? That's money" literally as he was cutting my hair going back and fourth. Another Vs location (again my fault here entirely for coming back) the woman cutting me literally said through the mirror "it's expensive huh?" "I don't vote for baby killers do you?" Lmao dude I never write reviews but here I am warning you... don't. Just don't. Anyone who writes a good review about this place I have to assume was paid to do so. You may think this is mean but it would be even worse to not warn the next person. By the way I shaved my whole head when I got home. Yup you read that right. read more

I was in town for a conference, and was looking pretty scruffy. I needed to find a place to quickly take care of me and in a hurry. I went with the Standard cut shave and massage. The cut was good and the entire experience was what I expected, and the value wasn't too bad. The guy was a nice gentleman from New York that came for some nicer weather. You can't blame him! I was able to squeeze in before they were actually open, and them accommodating me was appreciated. If I am in town for the same conference, I will come back! read more

This place got new ownership and they are amazing! Andy is my barber and he always cuts my hair to exactly how I like it.

I love this barbershop. They will give an amazing haircut and the barbers are so nice. Definitely give this place a try. I read that it used to have a previous owners, but these new owners will take care of you for sure. This is for sure my regular spot now. read more

I had a horrible haircut and was down in the dumps about it but i went here and they fixed me up so well. I recommend everyone and love this barbershop. Everyone in this area should go here it's amazing. and for a cheap price too. amazing. read more

New ownership with great barbers! The atmosphere of the place is great so is the customer service.

The haircut was good but stylist pulled a fast one at payment and lied about how much tip would be added and doubled it. Then just smiled and said oh well. Left feeling taken advantage of and deceived. Will NEVER go here again. And given there were no other customers I'm assuming others have figured it out as well. read more

This Barbershop has came back to life. The new ownership knows what their doing. The new barbers are pros and give you attention you deserve and then some. Definitely a repeat customer. Super clean and kept up. Great convo and customer service. Best shop Ive been to. read more

Terrible haircuts and terrible service. I can't understand how they are still in business. Who's gives a fade haircut with scissors???

What a joke. Walked in and saw one customer in the chair and one on deck. Decided to wait. Another guy comes in and she tells him there are two in front of him.... then, a few minutes later she tells me that guy has an appointment so I will need to wait for him... so, waited over twenty minutes before being informed of even a longer wait... she knew she had an appointment so why wouldn't she tell me up front? Won't be going back. Not worth the poor service for a mediocre haircut. read more

Setup a Weds 8am appointment and walked in at 7:58. 1 guy in the chair and barber tells me to "sit down". There were zero appointments when I scheduled my 8am, a week previously. None before, none after. What is the point of making an appointment if I'm supposed to "sit down". Left and asked when i could come in and was told "you were late". I think we both knew this was a lie. read more

Went in for a cut today, previous experiences here have been great. Had a barber I hadn't had before and just asked for an inch off, she nearly took all my hair, looks awful. I'm literally going to have to wear a hat for pictures until I can grow it back to a decent length again. read more

Great old school barbershop Ambiance. And if you like old school Sports pics on the wall (I do), then it's there too. If Eduard cuts my hair, its a great cut, as he has a lot of experience. If it's someone else, then hit or miss. Do recommend trying though. read more

Regina gas cut my hair twice now. She is always so polite and courteous, has a great attention to detail and is a pleasure to talk to! A great display of customer service and genuine kindness. Thank you Regina! read more

Renee' from V's corporate office called and apologized for the experience I had at one of their stores. She also refunded the $28 cost of the haircut. Nice to see this kind of response. Thanks read more

I now live in San Diego but had a terrible experience at this shop many years ago. My son was 14 years old, in 8th grade at middle school, very athletic, tall - 6 ft. , muscular, and had developed acne. Upon paying for him, the owner refused to accept that he was under the age of 15 which at the time was just 6$ under the adult cut. The owner made a scene at the front counter commenting there was no way my son was 14 saying my was so tall and had "spots" (acne"). My son was so embarrassed. I payed the bill for the adult cut just to get out of there. I returned the next day with a copy of my son's middle school ID and the owner just scoffed. I also advised all of my friends in the local PTO to not take their children there as the owner was so outlandishly full of himself. All of this for 6 dollars? However, the pizza is great next door. read more

I've been going to the shop for about eight years. I give them two stars instead of one because I do like Oksana. However her husband/owner is rude and offputting as reviews here suggest. After my most recent conversation with him trying to establish a time to come in I have decided I don't want to speak with him anymore and I'm going to pursue another shop. He has a very good way of making customers feel as if they are bothering him when they call. Oksana I would suggest talking to your husband because you will continue to lose customers. JS read more

Went in for a beard from. Had an appointment but the person I scheduled with wasn't there. Instead I was rushed to a chair. I showed the barber a photo of what I'm trying to do with me beard. She looked at it quickly and proceeded to disregard it as she shortened and changed the shape of my beard. When I got home i noticed that she missed places on the sides that I could not see when she quickly held up a mirror. The entire process took maybe 5 minutes. I could have done a much better job myself. I won't be back to V's. It used to be a good shop. Just a factory now. Get 'em in and rush 'em out. Too bad. Re: social distancing - when I first arrived the barber who met me at the door wasn't wearing a mask. When I left there was a bottle of "Purell " hand sanitizer.l on the counter. I dispensed a small amount to sanitize my hands only to find it wasn't Purell at all. Instead it was some sweet smelling concoction that had been transferred to a Purell bottle. I washed it off as soon as I got home. read more

My Favorite Fella always gets his hair and goatee cut here by Nissan. We live in North Peoria so it's a journey of dedication to go to this location. We since have been having my sons hair done there too. Loyalty is very important to us and quality deserves nothing less. Nissan always provides a world class experience. My boyfriends hair is cut to perfection and very easy to manage. Today Nissan was not available and we are going on Vacation. A Very important trip for us as my boyfriend would make sure this barber was aware of. My boyfriend missed his name but knows he was from Russia. My boyfriends hair is passable, not nearly Nissan Quality... but his Goatee was a large thumb size gap of hair removed from it. See picture. This isn't a small mistake that any quality Barber would not be aware has occurred. This barber said nothing and still charge my guy FULL Price! Shady shoddy workmanship and we are beyond displeased. My vacation pics will forever be marked by a bald spot that we paid for. UPDATE: I am impressed at the prompt response we received from Vs. For those who posted they got no response I am not sure why. Not only was the response prompt they offered an immediate remedy. We are pleased and intend to remain loyal to Nissan for sure. Thanks V. read more
