Great location and the shop is comfortable. Unfortunately, I think the older Barber that trimmed my hair needs glasses. My wife said, "I was hot, now I'm not." read more

Great service, walked right in on a Saturday and got a reasonably priced haircut ($18 cash only) for my 7 year old and I. The haircuts were exactly how we wanted them. Kids get a complimentary hot wheel car! My son also hit them up for a lollipop and gum. This will be my new go-to barber. Most of the barbers came over from Sal's near Shannon's Pub. Here is a Baltimore Sun article about them. https://www.baltimoresun.com/maryland/howard/cng-ho-andys-barber-shop-20201209-jmzcsbg77bdcji2ggevvceetoy-story.html Here is their Facebook page. https://m.facebook.com/pages/Andys-Barber-Shop/100290443363786 read more

Been going to Sals for years and they have now moved into Andy's across the Street. Never had a problem unti the other day. I pulled up to Andy's and there were 2 barbers outside talking and one barber inside giving a haircut. One of the barbers was the new owner of Andy's. I went in and expected a barber to follow me in. That did not happen. I sat down because I was getting tired of standing. After 10 minutes I walked out and made the statement "I guess you dont want my business". The owners just smiled at me like what's your problem. I then went in search for a new barber after 30 years. read more

This review is on behalf of a 9 year old boy who had hair cut disasters before. He greatly appreciated our now 2nd visit to Andy's Barber Shop! The place is a walking Military tribute with various pieces of memorabilia covering the walls, and airplanes hanging from the ceiling tiles. Every square inch of this place is covered in Navy Seal stuff. It makes for a little boy's delight! Andy seems continously busy with quite the regular clientele. We have been to Tina twice who listened! Wow....a barber who respects the client (even though he is 9) and doesn't automatically break out clippers! This is a really cool shop...finally a good barber shop has been discovered in Ellicott City. Try it...I think your kids and well ...any man will love it! read more

Worst haircut I've had in a few years. For the first time in a long time I decided to go to a barber shop like I used to go when I was a kid. Andy's definitely fit the bill. I walked in and get like I was in a legit old barber. The barber in the back room talked nonstop about what was wrong with 'Merica. Andy was very polite and didn't recognize me. As it was my first visit. I told him how I wanted my haircut, it's what I tell every person who has cut my hair for a long time, "Zero blade, up the sides, tapered,take off the top enough so it lays over when I part it". He cut it with a 2, when I asked him to cut it shorter he said he'd cut enough off and anymore wouldn't look right. After the haircut if it weren't for the hair I saw on the floor. I wouldn't know I got a haircut. It was a good price though $10, half what I normally pay. read more

I have been coming to Andy's Barber shop for over 20 years and keep going back because of the great service, fair price as well as the nostalgia. There aren't very many barber shops that have that classic feel with all of the military nick nacks and the awesome barbers. Since I have been coming here the price has gone up $2. I remember when haircuts were $8 and now they have gone up to a more then fair price of only $10! The place is cash only and everyone here is like family after a few visits. Come in for a great haircut and an enjoyable ambiance. read more

Poor service by barbers at Andy's they are limited with their knowledge or FAKE barbers, their names are Bob, Vin and Vein. They seems more interested in only cutting whites head! They pick and choose what demographic they want to cut. If you are black don't go there. The interest here is the TIPS! Rating for this salon is 1, 10 being the highest. I had a horrible hair cut, never going back period. Worst barber shop I have ever visited. read more

Andy has been cutting hair, since I don't know how long. His shop is like a step back in time, all the military memorabilia alone is worth the visit. And where else do you get a $10 haircut, and feel like you are in a barber chair on the set of "The Andy Griffith Show"? read more

An icon of Ellicott City, Andy's Barber Shop has been serving the community for multiple generations. Great cut for a great price. The shop owner is a Vietnam veteran who pays tribute to all branches of service with several mementos covering the walls of the shop. Super friendly environment. read more

Id have to say that going to Andy's barbershop because I was in a hurry was a huge mistake. Andy's barbershop is a very humble and welcoming place. However as welcoming as it was the service was just bad. Andy is a military vet and I have the upmost respect for him but He may need to use glasses or take a refresher for cutting hair. I go in at 5:10pm and see Andy is currently with a customer which is fair, first come first serve. Then next to his chair was an older female barber who I guess was waiting for a customer? Not sure. To begin with I wasn't sure if she was a barber or not because she didn't ask me if I wanted a haircut or anything. She just sat down at her station and talked to the customer Andy was currently attending. After about 20mins Andy is available to see me, I then realized that the lady who was there with Andy is a barber. It blew my mind she didn't bother to ask if I needed a haircut or if I needed anything period. I would have been in and out that 20mins I waited. So I sit down and chat with Andy, he then picks up the scissors and is about to cut my hair. Right before he does I say "I didn't tell you what to do with my hair yet" he says oh yeah what would you like done. I said "number 1 on the side, trim on the top" he says okay. ONE WHOLE HOUR LATER he shows me the end result. Any other barber I've been to only takes 15mins for this haircut. It's simple and not that complicated. Andy seemed to have trouble holding the clippers and seeing what he was doing. He had to make a few corrections after I told him how awkward the haircut looked. He said it was what I asked for I said nope that's not what it looks like everywhere else I get this haircut. Andy tried to correct his mistakes but I still have to get my hair fixed. I paid him $10 which is a good price but no tip. I will not be going back ever, nor do I recommend anyone going to get a haircut there. I'll give him the one star for being a nice guy and for his hospitality. Andy may have been an awesome barber a while ago but at the moment he's very rusty. read more

Don't do it. This is not a good place to get a haircut. I asked for a wash and cut. Apparently asking for a wash is taboo. The shop was dusty as well. read more

They claim to be child friendly barbershop, but just have refused to do haircut for my 3.5 years old sun. Disgusting people!

I had visited Andy's Barber Shop recently to get a haircut since the old barbershop that I went to had some changes. The place inside looked wonderful and the lady and gentleman were welcoming. When the haircut began, however, I was immediately nervous that this could be a big disaster. I was right. The lady who worked there was nice, but she did not seem like she had much experience being a barber and was having a hard time even gripping the trimmer correctly. Followed by the occasional whispers under her breath asking herself what to do next, I was on edge the entire time. She had turned my hair cut into one of the worst I have ever had in my life. I had to return to the shop and because she left a lot of patches on my hair uncut. Overall, I will never go back here. read more

Love the atmosphere at the shop. Andy cut my hair and didn't do that great of a job. Missed cutting s lot of hair which is hard due to my head being shaved. read more

Wow ! I remember Andy from 30 years ago. I remember one day my mom took me there and I was acting up so mom told him to cut off all my hair. He then trimmed up hair and made a pile of hair on back of chair. He took clippers and turned it over and threw hair over my head. I have always remembered this story. I moved away from area 16 years ago. Andy was a great guy. read more
