Great cuts always by Eric S! Shoutout to barber Sandy Taylor from the great west side!

This barber shop is a happening spot. I felt more hip and cooler just walking in. Please keep un mind that they are cash only. They have a decent sized private parking lot and they are playing some hip music in the shop. You will find Chad working the first chair as you come in the door and there is not a shortage of barbers. They had 19 working while I was there.\ And they were all helpful and very friendly. Chad has a back massager that he uses on his clients after he finishes their cuts, FYI. They do appointments, but it cost extra. I like the drop in concept better anyway. You just sign in on the iPad when you get there and wait to be called by one of the barbers. I waited less than 5 minutes. The shop is huge and is nice and clean. They sell snacks, lemonade and t-shirts there. Another good thing bout this place is that they cut all types of hair and does not focus on just one. It is a very diverse shop and even though I was new, I felt welcomed there. My barber did a very good job. I was happy with the cut. The only negative was that it took him a little extra time to do it. All-in-all I had a great experience at the shop and highly recommend checking this place out. One more thing, they do offer discounted cuts for seniors, police, fire, and EMS. read more

Always great service and awesome haircuts friendly atmosphere great prices most definitely recommend

Needed an haircut after so long. Very happy that I got to do a walk in but it seems like they recommend setting up an appointment just in case they get super busy. Everyone there was super friendly and made sure you felt comfortable and happy with the service. read more

Chad's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I always get my haircut here but when I went a couple days ago they pushed my hairline back during my lineup but they gave me a good fade

Been here 3 times with 3 different barbers. Every single one of them nicked multiple times and gave me an uneven line up. I didn't see one barber wash their hands. Constantly on their phones and hitting their vapes during my cut. Not worth the hype or the price. Save your money and skin read more

A great haircut but... I had a great haircut. Pope is an excellent barber I can say I had a problem with the app refunding the advance fee charged for a reserved time. I waited 11 days for the transaction. I went into the shop and let the staff know of the problem. Pope took care of the problem, and Chad followed up. Water under the bridge. I miss the days of a simple haircut like my years in the Army. I do recommend Chad's a great haircut Just not for me. read more

Took a walk in appointment here for the first time, was sat down with Pope. I was running off 0 sleep and didn't feel like talking. He was cool with that. Didn't force conversation, just stuck with the task at hand. Came out to $22 but I tipped an extra $5 for a $27 total. I feel like I should've paid more for this haircut, probably one of the best ones I've had. What looks like a $50 haircut at least for half the cost. Next time I'm back in town I'm for sure going back to chads. P.S. the music was good too. read more

Hard to tell if this is right because when I entered I was politely greeted by Chad as he was cutting hair the same as all his employees... I love that. I put my name in and sat kind of excited for the experience. So then the dude that's been taking the trash out says follow me. He sat me down to cut my hair as I observed how he didn't wash his hands. When I noticed him pick up the clippers I was like dang that's unfortunate. Anyway he goes on to hack at my neck as I felt the burn and then he unevenly cut the top of my hair... on the other hand it actually doesn't look as bad as I expected. But in the middle of it he cut his finger and didn't say anything as he slowly put a bandage on his finger and didn't say a word to me. Again he doesn't wash his hands as he puts his fingers back in my hair. It hurts to be polite because for the first time in my life I wanted to sand up out of my chair(not even at great clips have I felt this way). Also he lined my forehead up(for the first time in my life)... gave me a little forehead shave that added 7 years of life to my hairline. Paying cash hurt as well because I felt more obligated to tip the dude. Also I remember setting an appointment one time a while ago and got cancelled(guy said sorry bro I'm still moving out) I was confused because I didn't know him so how would I have known he was moving out. I was 20 min into that drive when I got that text. Anyway I'm sure some people have good experiences but you could also be me. read more

Great shop super affordable they have tons of barbers as well so never a super long wait

Not worth the hype, do not reccomend. Was told it was one of the best places to get a fade, absolutely not. Did i get a fade yes, was it what i asked for no. I literally drew a line round my head and went over with him a few times. I let him know other barbers do it to high so i want it low and longer n messy on top. He was cutting me off before i had even finished saying what i wanted. I got a very high fade, lesbian haircut. Long on one side short on other. Very short at back, Neat not messy, had to stop him squaring it off so i don't look like a Lego man. Turn n burn place, not warm or welcoming, no consideration for what you want. Why ask if you're going to give me the same haircut you give everyone. I have a huge birthmark on the back of my head so the low fade was to cover it. It's completely exposed. Will be wearing hats to work for next month. Over priced for sure, should be $10 for dealers choice haircut. read more

Chad's Barber Shop - I asked for low fade, longer n messy on top. - Barbers Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Chad's Barber shop is located in a tiny strip mall next to Big Lots on Madison Ave. I walked in on a Saturday to a 1 hour 20 minute wait. I had heard many good things about Chad's but this was my first visit. David Martinez did the hair cut for my 7 year old son. He was really great with him. A heck of a lot better than the women who have cut his hair in the past at great clips. My son wanted puppies on his head...I didn't. David offered a suggestion on a smaller design and took it from there. There staff is awesome at Chad's and even though the place was crazy busy it just seemed like a bunch of friends had gotten together on a Saturday and we're hanging out. Very professional, very friendly, very knowledgeable. Will definitely come back here. read more

Chad's Barber Shop - My little guy getting faded up with David Martinez. Great barber! - Barbers Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Last time I went to Chad's Barbershop One of the employees while cutting my hair stopped multiple times to show me YouTube videos all while dancing around like he was under the influence of meth.. I could smell vodka on his breath, he definitely was tweaking... Made the mistake of returning, when he tried to cut my hair again I said no thanks.. he then took my name off the list and left me sitting ... this has definitely turned into a quantity over quality Business... I will not be returning. "See you never" read more

I've been coming here since moving to the area several years ago. Will never go to a stylist again! I don't ask for a specific barber, I just go with first available. Most of the time, I don't have to wait very long, but I do make it a point to never drop in on Fridays or right before a holiday. I also try to avoid early evenings. If I have to go at a peak time, I know I'm going to have to wait. Still worth it! All of the barbers are great and know their stuff. If I've had a bad cut (twice) it happened because I didn't explain what I wanted well enough -- I have learned how to ask for what I want! Learn the lingo! They are easy to talk to, down to earth, real people and I've never had a bad experience here. Bring cash! read more

scheduled an appt with "Gio" 2 days prior for my son get there 15 minutes early just to be made to wait and additional hour plus asked about what's going on with as told to sign the walk in list and wait even more time , I eventually just left without my sons haircut .... this place has gone down hill BIG TIME read more

This barber shop is that best place where u can get a cut and especially from cj he gose crazy with those cuts and shit he will get u right and hes a w barber man i love this place when i get out that bitch I feel like a fresh man when i get my cuts from cj but chad's Barber shop give them a raise. read more

Love everything about the shop!! Personally I recommend downloading the app in order to book appointments ahead of time. Overall the shop is very clean and also has a nice barber culture to it! CJ is the barber I go to and he is very experienced and efficient with his cuts, also has great customer service when asking you how you want your hair cut! Definitely worth the $$ read more

This is one of my best barbershop experiences ever! From the time I saw the full parking lot on a Sunday morning, I knew I was in the right place. Although, the shop was PACKED, I got to the chair in no time, 'cause they have about 9 barbers. While I waited, I realized that every one of these guys can cut, so I sat down with Erick (first available) and got a great cut myself!!! I LOVED the energy, the conversations and the comraderie of the customers and the barbers. The music was great and we were all havin' a good time. A BIG added touch was the shoulder/back massage machine they use to finish off the cut :-) I highly recommend his place!!! read more

Great barbershop! I've been getting my haircut here for almost 2 years now. Everything is organized and branded nicely. All of the barbers in the shop can cut ANY style or hair grade. I would suggest coming in, locating a barber, then booking an appointment. This is a very popular and busy shop, but if prepared, your experience will be great. Cash only as well! That may be a downfall to some, but i don't mind. read more

Long wait times at this barber! They have you sign in but the barbers skip over and the list! It's happened to me several times. If you go here plan on waiting a couple of hours even if they aren't that busy because they will skip over you read more

Barber shop vibe anything goes. Awesome cuts make you leaving fresh. Great attitudes and staff. Come when your ready they always are. Can't wait to get back! read more

Was told over the phone they don't do appointments & to come in because they were free and no wait. I get there shortly after with 6 people in front of me. I waited for 3 hours. Multiple people came in, didn't sign in, and sat right down in a barber's chair. If they don't do appointments I don't know how those people are able to do that. If you want a haircut from here, make sure you carve out a ridiculous amount of time to sit and do nothing & get skipped over by each barber's friends. Oh also, they only accept cash in a world where no person carries cash. HAVE FUN :) read more

Smoothest FIRST hair cut ever! I scheduled my 10 month old with David M. at Chad's Barbershop for his first cut! Our experience was beyond great! We expected nothing less as Chad's came highly recommended from friends and family. Highly recommend scheduling an appointment (extra $6) because it's totally worth it, unless you have time to wait. David made our entire first hair cutting experience great! He took time and entertained my son while cutting his hair. Everyone in the shop was welcoming! Chad's even saved his first locket of hair and gave me a certificate of his first hair cut graduating for "babyhood" ( #sadmomma). Chad's has a check in system which is I think is wonderful that way there is no confusion on who walked in first and the barbers who are cutting don't have to be distracted while with their current customer. Overall, I'd recommend anyone for a cut at Chad's. P.S. Bring cash because they are cash only! read more

O'Neal has given me the worst haircut I've ever received. I showed him a picture of what I wanted. He replied "Oh that fade in that picture is terrible" (???). Okay? Let's see u back up this talk. He proceeds to shave my head with the most concerning clipper strokes ever. He starts talking to people and gets distracted away from the hair he's cutting. I've gone to this place numerous amounts of times and have gotten a good haircut, but today was one of the worst fades I have ever gotten. It makes me laugh looking at it. read more

Want look your best, then you need to get an appointment at Chad's Barber Shop!!

This is an old school barber shop run by new school guys. Those 90 year old barbers we had growing up weren't going to last but now there is a new generation. No self-respecting man should have to get a hair cut at a salon and Chad's team is here to save you from that. There may not be many reviews on Yelp but this place is no secret. It started out in the same strip mall but they just keep growing. Prepare to wait in line on a Saturday. Once you're finally in the chair, they'll line you up in record time and send you on your way with a massage. P.S. It's a machine, not some dude massaging you. read more

First time coming here for a trim. Really liked the whole vibe of the spot. Paul did a great job and everyone there seemed really down to earth and personable. Will definitely be recommended to the boys! read more

Best place to get a haircut. You can't go wrong with JB or Martinez. I don't even need to look in the mirror during the haircut or after the haircut. You tell them what you want and you get that every time. read more

Best barbershop in Indiana!!!! Every barber is capable of giving you the best cut you've ever had.

Called and asked what time they closed. Guy on the phone says "we lock the doors at 6pm. If your here by then your good". Get there about 5:30 and as I'm walking up I can hear him lock the door. If you don't want that business after 5:30 say that on the phone. Don't let the guest/customer drive all the way to your establishment only for you to, literally, lock the door in their face. Dirt ball move. Won't be back. read more

My boyfriend is always RAVING about how he loves his haircuts from Chad's, and he looks so good!! They have quick service for a barber shop, and they consistently do a great job on Tyler's hair! There's never been a time where he hasn't loved his experience there. Thank you Chad's!! read more

They don't commit to appointments made. Went in and told to sign in. Waited over an hour and they weren't apologetic at all.

Best barbershop on the south side.All of the barbers are very good at what they do, period.It's very diverse, & ALWAYS busy.Chad is a very friendly business owner, & you can tell his employees genuinely enjoy working for him.This is a cash only business, & an appointment is highly recommended unless you have alot of time on your hands.It is an additional $6 for an appointment, but it's well worth it if you're pressed for time.I love the personalities of the barbers, they're always fun & pleasant.Chad, Clay, & Mick are the best! read more

A lot of friends recommended Chad's because they give a killer haircut. I came for my first time and was not disappointed. While it was busy and the wait can take awhile, the cut was fresh and the barber took his time, asked questions, and made sure I left satisfied with my cut. read more

I recently got a haircut there and I asked for a bald fade but by far got the farthest thing from a bald fade. It was the worst haircut I have received in the past couple years. Never coming back there again. read more

Mic did an awesome job on my son's fade. It didn't take forever and very affordable.

I want to let everyone know that Chad's barbershop is the best barber shop I am madly obsessed in love love living still thanks to John neargarnder purpose michael n John angelic love u juju ! read more
