Place is unreal was In the other week on Monday go on Monday the mans Ken gives a mean cut!

Great staff, very open and friendly environment. I go to Angela for the best and consistent hair cuts but I am confidant that the rest of crew will provide great hair cuts as well from what I saw. If you haven't had an opportunity to get an actual premium haircut I would give this place a shot. read more

Angela did a great job. Thank you for taking care of me today. I'm so excited to have found a new barber.

Steve was amazing as my barber. The atmosphere was great everyone was chill. I've been to a few barber shops but never as nice as this. I'm not used to some of the treatments but I'll gladly go back to it again soon read more

Eric was amazing I highly recommend him and entire shop, you cannot go wrong. The place is super neat and the music is Slamming!

When I heard that Eric and Jon were opening their shop in Ballston I was ecstatic. One visit later and that was justified. The shop is immaculate, service is top notch and everything you could want in a new, local business. They also have nitro cold brew on tap, which was delicious. I was happy to see that they had their own line of beard products and I picked up some great beard oil after my trim and shave. The prices are great and I already booked my next appointment. read more

Been coming to see Riz at Bearded Goat for the past few months after struggling for over a year to find a barber in Arlington that I felt comfortable with. Riz always gives me an excellent cut and really works with me to understand how to maintain the style at home. Haircut service is pricy ($45 before tip), but includes a bottle of water, shampooing, and styling. Always get a good amount of banter with everyone in the shop. You have to book an appointment (no walk-ins really), so make sure you plan in advance. read more

Eric, one of the owners has been my barber for almost a decade. I was so excited when he told me he was opening his own place with Jon. They are both amazingly talented barbers and overall great people. Their desire to provide the very best shows in their cuts, their shop and their overall attitude. Everyone in the shop is always nice and welcoming, its always clean and there is free cold brew and water. If you are looking for an upscale barber shop, with a great vibe and extremely talented staff, look no further. Call them, go online, book and appointment and you wont be disappointed. read more

I've held off on reviewing this place to see if my first experience held true to what I could expect months later -- it did. If I could give six stars, I would. Bottom line up front: You get what you pay for. Also, just use the website to book an appointment. Don't fight the system or try to walk in. Just book online. This shop is not super cuts. They are not a place that accepts cash only or that has a bunch of folks waiting for walk-ins. They are professional barbers. If you want to save $20, find a cheaper place with shops that have rotating chairs with different people every week in their shop, avoid this place. If you want to spend the extra $20 for the best haircut so you look your best, book an appointment online. Long review: I was looking for a new barber after the one I had been going to for years stopped listening to me and just started doing his own thing. I guess he got too comfortable with our relationship. I found Bearded Goat Barber via Yelp and decided to give them a try. My first appointment was with Eric, so I've stuck with him since my first appointment many months ago. I'll be blunt, he's a artist, a maestro, the best. On my third appointment it dawned on me that Eric was a barber I used to see at the Barbershop Company in the Ballston Mall before they moved. He ALWAYS had a line of people waiting for him. But the biggest compliment I can pay him is it was like a United Nations waiting room. Black, white, asian, old, young... it didn't matter. He could cut it all. Which... says a lot at because different ethnicities have very different hair and challenges. Eric's barber skills are on point. I tend to prefer early morning appointments so I've seen him opening the shop multiple times and pow-wowing with the other barbers. He also doesn't stop learning or stop imparting knowledge on the others. I have a semi-challenging haircut and so he asked if he could use me to demonstrate some techniques to the others. I happily obliged. He cares about his other barbers. He's always giving them advanced tips like, "use the mirror to look at your work from a different perspective". Brilliant! I've also over heard him talking about the shears/scissors he used and telling others what is best to use for wet hair, dry, durability, etc. He knows his stuff. I've also heard him talking to the other barbers and telling them to remember they aren't a headcount place. Clarifying, he said, take your time and use all the time of the appointment by focusing on quality and not quantity. This is why they charge a little more. You won't be rushed and you'll get a high quality cut. Again, this is why you should book online. For me, keeping my beard on point is also important. I screw it up when I try to shape it myself. They specialize in facial hair as much as they specialize in head hair. They also offer their own products which are made by one of the co-owner's farm. The products are good. Not great. But not bad. Worth their price. Solid. The shop is minimalist and I love that. It is decorated in simple black and white with a industrial urban feel. The square lights are also pretty cool. There is a mural on the wall. They offer water or nitro coffee from a tap. You can stream the playlist they've made on Spotify. It's the little touches like that which I find modern and awesome. The shop has 3 or 4 large TVs on the wall. Great if you are waiting. Admittedly, they are a little hard to see when you are getting your cut. Everyone of the employees I've met have been great, funny, and nice. While I've not used anyone but Eric, I'd feel confident going to any of the other barbers. read more

Highly recommend. Visited for the last three haircuts, once with Riz and twice with Angela. All staff do a great job of making you feel at home and while it's a higher price point, you do get your money's worth with the attention to detail! All of my cuts have been great, will definitely keep coming back. Book in advance as they are busy-- for good reasons. read more

Rizwan gave me a great haircut, and just as importantly we had a great discussion before starting about style and goals. I was looking to make a drastic change and he was happy asking some questions and discussing style before we started. He was very attentive and meticulous with the actual haircut and beard trim as well. read more

Went in to see Angela for a hair cut and she was great! Very professional, personal, and skilled! Best hair cut I've ever gotten!

Felt that the barber rushed me through my service as he was running late. Never received the promised hot facial towel finish. The whole process lasted 30 minutes while they indicated the personal service haircut was 40 minutes in duration. read more

Great atmosphere and even better haircuts! I have been looking for a place like this for a while.

Just got my beard trimmed at the Bearded Goat with Jon. Best beard trim I've ever received - hands down. I have been going to another location to have my beard trimmed and hair cut for over a year, but took a chance on the Bearded Goat as it's conveniently located in the Ballston neighborhood. The location is awesome, ambiance is stellar, and the staff was great. I was greeted with a cold brewed coffee and Jon made my beard look the best I think it truly ever has. I've already set my follow-up appointment and will continue to sing their praises. Cheers and welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Best hair cuts, wet shaves and line ups in the DMV. Right next to the garage so parking is easy. Jon and Eric are great would highly recommend giving them a shot and you won't go anywhere else. Open on weekends so great if scheduling during the week is a pain. read more

Went the other day for haircut and walked into kind greetings and top notch hospitality. Had an appointment with Eric and I have been looking for a good barber to go to in the area for a while (it's hard to find quality barbers nowadays). From the moment I sat in the chair Eric was so professional and making sure I got the look I wanted. He gave me one of the best haircuts I've gotten and had great chair side manners. He's now the only barber I'll be seeing. Definitely just found my go to spot for my haircut and shave! read more
