The Barbershop

They try to make this place looks nice with amenities, but it’s all about the haircut experience. Feeling rushed, I didn’t even get a massage. Most places when they shampoo you also get conditioning not this place. The quality of the hair cut was of poor quality. Too short not my style. He said he had 10 years of experience, but he looked like he was only in his early twenties. I would not come back.

One word: OKAY.
BLUF: Make an appointment ahead of time!
So…I have tried this place twice with two different expereiences. First time everything was great! The guy cut my hair and followed my wishes to the T. Second time the girl I had was great, very friendly, talked story with me… and then she took off a layer of skin when she waxed my eye brows. I get my eyebrows done at least every month for the past 3 years and this was the first time that I have had someone take skin. Although she seemed concerned I did not feel like she or the manager tried to make things right for me especially since I started to scar right away.
Other than that though, they are worth the price since you do get your hair washed, hot towel service, and a mini massage using a machine. I just wished they did a better job removing the hair off my face after the cut since it is uncomfortable and they tried to do something to make up for the bad wax service.

First time here, friendly staff but Son had scratches on neck AND 3 «rat bites» in the back after cut wish stylist would’ve mentioned it to me.
An update on my son’s haircut: I called speak to the manager & the lead said she owner wasn’t in. Manager never called back!

We take our son here to get his hair cut and his preferred stylist was off today. She’s usually there on Sunday’s, but wasn’t there for whatever reason. So, he had to go with someone else. He didn’t get the hot towel or a massage today and was really disappointed, because his usual stylist doesn’t skimp out on the (heavily) advertised treatment just because he’s a 10 year old kid. His hair cut is also, meh, not on point like it usually is. Where people ask, where do you take him to get it cut. She didn’t even style it with gel. Very disappointing because we drive a good bit to get there because he liked coming there so much.

Went in earlier in the week for the first time without an appointment and was seen immediately by Eileen. She was very friendly. There is a small flat screen tv in each workstation. I didn’t really care for that because it was on a tv program that I never really cared for. LOL. I told Eileen a pretty broad description of how I wanted my hair cut. She cut away and my cut came out great. The wash, shampoo, hot towel, and massage with every cut is an added bonus which convinced my son to try the place out himself.
I brought my son in a couple days after without an appointment and was seen after 30min. Not a big deal. My son said the guy that helped him was friendly and liked the way he cut his hair. However, the reason why I only gave 3 stars was because my son said he didn’t get a wash, shampoo, hot towel, or massage. He did not receive the same customer service that I received and was a bit bummed that he didn’t get the extra service that swayed him to go there in the first place.
He does want to go back once more just for that. I will change my review when he does.

This is my spotttttt!!! Clean haircuts, and the barbers always take care of you. You get a haircut, shampoo, massage and straight razor lineup for a nominal cost. I’ve been looking for a good barbershop and luckily it’s conveniently located right down the hill from (and not in town!). Julie is my homegirl, and she hooks it up. Great lounge couches in the waiting area. Super cool staff, I’m always cracking up in there. Great atmosphere, just what you would want in any legit barbershop.

Wish I could give a 0 star. Twice I have went there and wasted time waiting on a haircut. Got there at 8:05am today and at 8:30 they come and tell me they are going to take two more appointments and then see me. I left. A good piece of business advice, don’t advertise walk-​ins! I should bill for my time. Honestly, it looks like they do not have enough barbers and are unorganized. I should just stick with my usual place, even if they don’t open until 9am.

I tried this place twice because I give second chances. Both times I wasn’t impressed as at all The customer service is terrible. Aileen is the only friendly one. She helped us the first time, but not the second. The second time we were a walk in and she was not working. I brought my son (btw kids pay the same as adults) a male gentleman asked a coworker to take my son and they had a argument that she clocked out already and too bad. We all could hear it. The peanuts were very STALE! Then he takes my son (6), I show him what I want and ½ hour later he comes out completely high lined up and a haircut that is suited for a 16 year old. I was in shock, plus my son was over it. This is not a kid friendly place, nor is customer service its priority. I’ll stick to Great Clips.

Great place for an awesome and cheap haircut! I would give it 5 stars except that last time we went my bf had an appointment for 4:30, we called to say we might be a few minutes late, ended up getting there at 4:27, and didn’t get serviced until about 4:45. Not a big deal because we weren’t in a rush, but hopefully it doesn’t happen when we are!

The Barbershop is located in the same complex as Starbucks and Thai Lao. It’s right in the corner next to TIFFANY’S NAILS. As soon as you walk in you feel the positive vibes. You’re greeted as soon as you walk in. They’re waiting area is big with leather couches, a coffee table with magazines, coffee, water, and PEANUTS… FREE PEANUTS while you wait! Lol there’s also a flat screen tv for those of you that don’t read magazines. They have redbull for purchase at counter as well.
For all you gentlemen the service includes: Hair cut, shampoo & condition, hot towel, facial hair trim, shoulder massage, & neck trim between cuts. Awesome deal!
I would suggest making an appointment because they’ve been busy every time I come here with my other half!

MENS CUT: Card– $ 16.50
Cash– $ 16.00

I was excited to take my son and bf to get a good cut, plus it was r first time. I loved denise? She did a great job on my son. Treated him very well.
My bf had another person (don’t know her name, but she has a Bob haircut with a one-​sided A-​line cut, she is on the heavy side). He initially wanted a «skin fade, front and back lined up. beard and mustache line up». Just him alone took about 1 hr and 20minutes. I expected him to come out super super clean. I got the total opposite. He also had hair all over him. I’m never coming here again. Maybe my expectations were too high. But for 70 $ spent on a child and 1 adult, I expected way more. I ended up lining him up myself, and having to go to supercuts to refade his hair. This was for a wedding.

Didn’t have a good experience today. Got a 1530 appt. I arrived on time but didn’t get called till 1550. Haircut was rushed, I was out by 1610. No massage offered.
I’ll give them another chance and definitely use a different stylist.

This is the full meal deal
Package. Massage, shampoo, cuts for ONLY $ 16!!! Every booth has its own TV to keep you busy while your getting your cut. WAY better than super cuts or any other place I’ve been around Kapolei or anywhere else, including those expensive salon types. Highly recommend!

What a great shop. Denise is one of the best barbers I have ever had. The way she washes your hair is hypnotizing.
Please get salted peanuts. Don’t be cheap.
At first thing it the morning it’s a little warm in there. Try turning on your Ac earlier.
Denise rules!!!

Where do I begin? So I’ve been looking for a barber since I have made it back, and for awhile I was going to Jenny’s in Aiea, which is not bad at all, but found this place off of a friend’s recommendation.
I am a creature of habit, often applying the «if it ain’t broke don’t fix it“mentality to a lot of things. I was going to Jenny’s for two reasons, comfort and reliability. They cut hair good, and it was close to work.
I made the jump after getting my hair cut by Jonny, and it was very pleasant. He asked me what I wanted, gave me a few recommendations, and told me why he recommended it (I have a round face, which I already accepted by that point) and his attention to detail made me feel really good after leaving.
Did I come back, of course! It’s actually the first time I made an appointment for a haircut in my life. Great experience!

**PEANUTS ON PREMISES, those with allergies beware**
Came here for a walk in and boy, they do not disappoint!
Off to your right you’ll see a table with complimentary peanuts, coffee, and water. On top of a barrel there’s a little mini fridge with other drinks that you could purchase for like $ 3.25 or something.
There is comfortable seating everywhere and T.V. for those that are in the waiting area.
You’ll come across a Please Sign In board, which is self explanatory. Someone is usually in front if you have any questions.
The set us is almost like cubicles; everyone has their own little space. I like that it gives you a more personal experience. It can be more relaxing in comparison to sitting next to someone that could stare at you the entire time.
You get an entire pampering kind of deal (for guys) for $ 16! (Plus tax) They also do free neck trims. Not gonna lie, idk what that is but I’m sure many people request it.
I honestly like how Jeff’s hair came out. Thanks, Jake!
I’m pretty sure we have found our go-​to place for men’s cut.
They take cash or card.
The parking is hard, honestly. It’s usually busy in that area. Good luck with finding parking!

I really have mixed reviews on this place. Very affordable and cheap however in my opinion you get what you pay for.
Upon entering I was very impressed by the décor. The Barbershop looked like a modern day hipster barber you could find in Seattle. I liked how they had Coffee and Water available. They chairs were very comfortable with many magazines to keep yourself occupied. However wait was long about 35 minutes, during that span one person walked out. Apparently some of the staff showed up late. It was evident when the owner/​manager scolded them.
I was finally seated in a «Chair». Each barber had their own cubicle and television so that the hair cut is private and you are also kept entertained. I explained what I wanted to get done and my hairstylist had an idea what type of style to get. Which is the common «fade sides» long on the top which most guys get nowadays. Stylist was very meticulous making sure every cut was straight and even. However once it came to trimming my hair, I felt worried because it seemed as if she was a beginner or really slow.
After the cut, I had my hair washed and conditioned. Which wasn’t extremely thorough as I still had «hair shards» in my hair. After they have machine that gives you a shoulder massage which felt relaxing.
All in all for $ 16 you get a lot. From the Hair cut to shampoo and conditioning and a shoulder massage. Although at first I was shocked how cheap it was. I left like with the feeling like «that was about right». I am a little concerned about the barbers, although they do a good job. They do look a little uneducated in regards to hair cutting. Not sure if these barbers even graduated from beauty school because they are very young. But they do the work, so I guess that’s what matters.

If the guy is about to cut your hair, RUN!
I’m not joking here guys because I got the worst haircut ever from this guy. Never have I had someone cut my hair so crooked before in my life. I even tried to show/​tell him where it was off and he messed it up even more. I’ll probably have to wear a hat for the next week or just buzz my head. I’m a nice guy so I called it quits and I’ve learned my lesson to never let this hairstylist touch my hair ever again.
Highly recommend going to the ladies at the shop cause they definitely know what they are doing and won’t mess up your hair. Please save yourself or your kid the trouble and avoid getting your hair messed up from this guy.

Waited 45 minutes for a haircut when my appointment was supposed to be 7pm.
Despite the price and good job they do for styling my hair, I won’t come here again unless they take people in based on their sign in time. And I was on time for the «appointment» yet 4 people went ahead of me. This is not acceptable.
I originally was gonna make it 0 stars but that’s not possible yet I’ll accept their apology. So back to 2 stars. Either way unless you live out here and willing to wait, don’t bother.

This shop is clean and modern, with a touch from the past. They cater to Men, offering an array of services for men’s grooming, and currently have a grand opening special of $ 12.50 for men’s/boy’s haircuts. All you can eat peanuts are free for customers, along with free coffee and water. Waiting seats are comfortable, and so are the barber chairs. Each barber chair is closed off by divider-​walls, so you don’t have to uncomfortably look at your neighbor who is also getting their haircut. Each «cubicle» has it’s own LCD TV that you can choose your own channel… but I had an awesome conversation with my barber the whole time.
My barber, Britt, was awesome… she may be young, but she’s been cutting hair for YEARS. Professional, friendly, and conversational (not fake). My haircut was perfect! It also comes with hair wash (shampoo and conditioner), and a shoulder/​neck massage after the cut using one of those old school vibrating massagers the barber puts on their hand/​wrist. Britt also did my eyebrows… she did a real good job!
Overall, I would recommend this place to GUYS for their next haircut… ask for Britt.
