The other two reviews don't do this place justice. Sure, the owners son is brash and opinionated…read more But don't go just once. He will win you over along with the rest of the staff. I've been going here now for about 5 years and it's by far the best cut in the NRV I have had. Lamont, Darius, and Josh all three are top notch barbers who have vast experience with all kinds of different hair styles. Josh is generally my go-to, but if he's not there I have no hesitation to sit back with Lamont or Darius. Now here's the best thing about this place. This is an old school barbershop. There's teasing, trash talk, but there's love. These guys and gals make coming to the shop not a chore, but something I look forward to every 2 weeks even if there's a wait. And that's what having a barbershop to call yours is all about. These guys are all locals and grew up in the area, it's a family business as well. This is definitely more than a place to get a hair cut.

This is not a review for the skill of the barbers. I have been going to this establishment and have…read morealways received a great haircut. This review is simply a reflection of the owner (or I am guessing the owner's son based on other comments). At my last visit to the establishment this gentleman engaged in a discussion on immigration, where he no uncertain terms made it clear that immigrants have made no contributions to this country, should not be allowed enter United States, and that immigrant deaths in US custody are either fake news or do not matter because US should not spend his tax dollars on immigrants. I have toned down the tenor of his comments for the purpose of this review. Unfortunately, the actual conversation was hostile and full of dogwhistles. Personally I will no longer bring my business to this place.

Highly recommend and would return in a heartbeat for next cut!! Thank you so very much.read more

It's hard to find someone that can do a good fade, even more so when you're on travel…read more I needed a cut and stumbled upon this little spot when I was in Roanoke. I made an appointment with Melanie the day prior and when I showed up the next day, was pleasantly greeted when I walked in to her shop. The shop is small with two chairs and one other barber, and is very comfortable. I think some barbershops can be intimidating, overwhelming or obnoxious - well, this isn't that place. The ladies here make you feel welcome. There's great natural light and cool knick knacks. I wanted a fade and a trim, and she did just that. We had awesome conversation the whole time. I think a cut is $20, and they offer a military discount - but call for prices just in case I'm inaccurate. Stop reading this, and go get your hair cut.

I've been looking for a good barber for my son for about three years since I moved to SML. It's…read morebeen pretty difficult honestly. So when I looked on yelp & found this business I was excited & hopeful that it would work out. I made an apointment with Steve via their website for a Saturday apointment at 12:00. I drove all the way to Roanoke from the lake & at 12:00 Steve texted & said he didn't feel well and that he wasn't going to come into the shop at all that day. Now, I understand not feeling well...life happens. But to wait until the exact time of my apointment was piss poor. Now, I'll get to why I still gave this business a 5 star review. When we got the text that Steve left us high & dry CHASE stepped up & offered to cut my son's hair. He was crazy busy all by himself in the shop on a Saturday & he still squeezed us in. He took his time on my son's hair--he could have rushed him through & finished quickly, but Chase took his time & it really showed. I absolutely love my son's hair cut & I'll definitely bring my kid back to get his hair cut with Chase.

I waited for like 10 minutes before he finally came in the shop. Didn't introduce himself just told…read moreme to sit down in the chair. I should have got up and left the moment he had this dazed look like he was under the influence of something. Moved to Roanoke from San Diego so this was my first experience with a barber. Chase was the only one I could find with availability (should have been a warning sign) I've been getting the same cut for the past 10 years. Medium low skin fade, trim up the top. NOOO HIGH AND TIGHT. He never repeated back to me what I said, he just grabbed his clippers on a zero and ran a line up my head. He just kept cutting up and up and finally I was like dude I literally said no high and tight. At this point I already knew my hair was butchered, I didn't even want to see it, then on top of that he charges like $35 for subpar work, definitely will not be going back.

After searching Yelp and reading reviews I chose Mama D's, I'm so glad I did! I can't remember which Deanna or DeAnna, my hair was cut the way I requested without having to tell Deanna or DeAnna again and again how I like my hair cut. This was something I had to do back in Chesapeake until the 4th or 5th time of getting my haircut by the same stylist. Oh Deanna or DeAnna told they make notes on how I like my hair cut so that when I come back to get my haircut Deanna or DeAnna won't need to ask me how I like my haircut! This is a great place with 2 fantastic stylists!
