Brandon is my barber but having watched thr others work over the years, I wouldn't hesitate to go to or recommend any of them. Always hospitable and good value for what you choose for your cut. I recommend the hot towel treatment, but you can get by with only a haircut if you don't have a need for a shave. Great atmosphere with TVs on the wall and a great selection of music always playing on the overhead speaker. Do be sure to go online and book in advance as they are appointment only and the process is simple and easy. Book early as most of the barbers can be booked several weeks out.

First off, I had a great (partial) haircut. I wanted to be clear on that. My review is more about…read morethe experience and the value for the price. I have never been to a barber before, but have been struggling to find someone to cut a feminine short haircut. This place seemed to fit my needs. I called to make an appointment as I was not familiar with barber terms and didn't know which scenario or which person fitted my needs and availability. The person I spoke with scheduled me with Cassie (after they inquired what kind of cut I was looking for). The place is off court and I knew parking might take some time consideration, which I factored in. I also saw a review on Google when a client complained about being late to an appointment and a response from the owner to that, which I agreed with. The space is small! For me, uncomfortably small. Everyone was in everyone's space and not much room for movement. No one acknowledged me when I came in, so I just took a seat and waited on the couch. My person was running behind and apologized for that. Something that bothered me was that they did not sweep up between clients. It came my turn and I had to awkwardly climb into the chair. I am used to a salon chair where it's at a lower level and they pump the seat up to the necessary height. I showed Cassie photos of what I was looking for in a cut and she made some suggestions and off we went. I don't know exaxtly how long it took as the other person was running late, but I would guestimate 20 minutes. This being my first barber experience ever (possibly my last), I found the experience lacking. I wasn't offered a drink, I didn't get a shampoo, she was very rough with my ears when shaving around them and the back of my neck felt a bit raw from all the shaving with the electric razor. Maybe this is common? I have nothing to compare it to. She did not cut the top hair at all (in hind site, it needed weight taken out). I go to pay and she tells me she is cash only. Ummmmm......ok.......that's fine and all, but I don't carry cash on me. She offered that I use one of those janky ATMs sitting in the corner of the restaurant across the hall. I was not happy and being in such close proximity to everyone else in the room, I didn't feel comfortable saying something. So? $50 + for the haircut and $6 in ATM fees was definitely not worth the experience. I noticed that other barbers had an electronic device to take payments, so apparently they each have their own payment system? The person I spoke to on the phone should have told me it is cash only and I would have planned accordingly and saved myself $6 on fees. Again, great (partial) haircut, however this barber shop is not for me. I have received a way better experience at many salons for the same price and even less. This partial cut was way overpriced. I do not know if I will give another barber shop a try.

Not only does it have an ultra cool vibe & decor, but the ladies that work their are truly hair magicians!!! The first time I had the honor of getting a cut from Robin (not sure in the spelling or if she's still there, but still got a great cut, so that's the important part). This time I was blessed to get the owner of this gem; Riva; and BOY WAS I LUCKY!!! I'm being 100% honest when I say that it's one of the best haircuts I've received in my entire life!!! I live in NYC & if I had the finances to do so, I'd ONLY get my haircut by Riva...she's just that good!!! If u are in the Des Moines area, and in need of a cut, DO YOURSELF A HUGE FAVOR, visit Riva & the gals at DAPPER DSM...u can thank me later.

Recommended to me, I decided to give this place a try due to its price and proximity to my home. It did not disappoint. Truc is my barber and she has always done a fantastic job. I get a simple taper cut but I'm positive she's great at other styles as well. To top it off, she ends each cut with a neck shave and hot towel. She has even gone above and beyond for me when I had a scheduling conflict. You'll need to schedule an appointment ahead of time for availability. And they do offer other services as well. Just check out the website for those details. Highly recommended!

She took our chat and immediately translated it into a great cut. She is highly professional, incredibly talented, and kind. Since it was my first visit, she asked a lot of questions and executed them exceptionally well. The whole place worked well, as Ciara greeted me kindly and answered all of my questions that came with a first visit. It's cool decor, and their hours are very flexible. Their pricing is highly competitive and decidedly lower than major markets' costs. I don't drink alcohol, or else I'd like it even more due to their liquor offerings. You can join their membership and get some breaks, or remain on your own and still get great service.
