I have been a cosmetologist since 1994 working for Aveda, taught for Aveda and have been educated with many hair classes and shows. I decide on a whim to go to the Barber Shop my husband gets his beard trimmed (he's bald lol) I figured if they can do a great barber cut, why not a dry cut? So I made an appointment and was told they could do it. I have at least 40 friends that are hairstylist and Jamie at The Castle Hills location did a bad ass job. I styled my hair when I got home and it was absolutely perfect. I know how to check Highly recommend! read more

It doesn't matter which barber I see at this location, all of them are skilled and know exactly what they're doing. When coming here, give yourself at least an hour leeway because the place gets super busy! However, they usually have about 6-7 barbers catering to folks. It's a small place that does haircuts well. They also do the good ole' fashion warm cream shave with the old school razors. I really enjoy coming here. Most haircuts are between $25-40 depending on what you do. Let me tell you that they're worth every damn penny! I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants a damn good haircut and a clean cut razor shave. You will not be disappointed. Parking can be a pain in the butt, but it's well worth the hassle. read more

I've been coming to this barber shop for about 4 years now and every time has been an absolute joy. The wait times can be long at times, but that expected when a shop has such excellent staff and customer service. The wait is well worth it and you're guaranteed to get a skilled barber whom will assist you with getting your haircut just right. I always recommend this shop to my friends and people who are looking for that classic barbershop vibe. Definitely come here to get your hair cut, you won't be disappointed! read more

I was waiting for my wife to bring my son. I have been here many times and the service was always rather pretty good. Today, at 5:18, they were like, nah, we're closing early. And we are cash only since we aren't taking credit cards today. Over an hour early? We were always loyal and my family was around the corner but it was a no go. Silly. I always looked at other reviews and never understood why anybody would give this place a low rating but today their colors came through and it is clear. Nice job. read more

They were absolutely friendly! Great customer service. Also, my son loved his fresh cut!

Been here on multiple occasions, the standard here is getting a pompadour, or along the lines of a greaser haircut. Had my hair cut by Chris, did a phenomenal job, had my hair done by the other barbers and they also did a really awesome job. I would say that they all know what they are doing and you shouldn't be afraid to leave it up to them, they use great barber products to style your hair with and good equipment to match. You will not be getting a Rios type barber here with Conair clippers lol. Environment is very much to my liking: Rockabilly music, barbers with tattoos and fresh haircuts, friendly customer service, and everyone talks to each other here. The only gripe I can say I had was the last time I went, I tried to keep the length of my hair as it took me a while to grow, I asked for a blend to the top and the barber just pretty much forgot and did his own thing and cut the length to the top. Trusted him enough to not have to micromanage him to do my haircut, but then I saw him cut the top and was immediately disapproving. BUT, the good thing about this place is that the barbers are all masters of their craft and it came out pretty swell. It was my birthday haircut and it still came out good, some minor things I didn't like about it but I just won't ask for that barber anymore. I like for my barber to listen to what I want in a haircut and deliver, nonetheless it still looked awesome and I tipped my usual 50% of the bill shook his hand and went about my day. Haircuts I overheard were generally around $20.00 which is cheap for the job they do, worth every penny I will tell you that. You get what you pay for here, and that is quality work from good quality hard-working people here. read more

Been going to Clippers on and off for a few years, I definitely had a few favorite barbers in that time and sadly they've come and gone (Julia and Shannon in particular). When they both left I stopped coming (definitely not a knock on the other barbers, who are all excellent but those two were miracle workers on my weird hair). I live far enough away that i just went to other businesses that were closer to me. A few months ago i heard Julia moved back to San Antonio and was in her old chair at Clippers so I enthusiastically returned. I've had three cuts since she's been back and she hasn't lost a step! J-U-L-I-A...!!!! read more

Love the fact that this place is open 7 days a week. They have flexible hours. Luis usually cuts my hair and is very attentive to what I am wanting. Luis is pretty sharp with his skills and at the same time is a great storyteller. Paige is great as well and easy to talk to. Clippers is clean and there's plenty of seating to wait. Location is easy to find and parking availability is good. I enjoy the diverse and cultured music they play. read more

I have been going to this barber shop for some time now. All the barbers are above average! For me, my go to is Heron!!! Heron is more than just a barber, he takes is craft seriously and it shows in his art. There are not to many barbers that I allow to cut mine or my son's hair; Heron is on that short list! Do yourself a favor and check out this shop and if you get a chance, check out Heron too! read more

Always great service, cut, and conversation. I have had several different barbers give me a cut, and it's always a great experience. Side note...offer beer to those that are waiting. read more

Great cut great price super cool people. Dig the ol timey feel. Been coming here for years.

Before I hung up my shears in retirement, I cut the hair of my husband and my 4 year old. Upon being too busy to cut anyones hair, my husband found Julia and she has consistently done an amazing job! After about a year and a half of my husband going to her (and taking my son to the local Great Clips down the street) we finally took our 4 year old to her. He sat better for her than he ever had for his own mother back when I was behind the chair! My husband and my son constantly get compliments and friends and family alway comment on how sharp they look. And we always recommend her to the men in our lives. My boys have never looked better and we will alway return! read more

I've been going to this barber shop since I've been in high school, I loved coming here for the atmosphere and good haircuts and generally good customer service, well it's been a few years since I've come back from the military and man let me tell you the service has gone down tremendously, the price has gone up a bit and they're customer service has Faultered as well. Last two times I came here I wasn't really pleased with my haircut, now granted partially that's my fault for coming back but I didn't want to think negatively I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and I figured maybe it was just a barber who was inexperienced, well after today of possibly having the worst haircut I think I've ever gotten this will be the last time I ever spend money here, which is sad because I used to like this place a lot. read more

My first visit to this barber shop and was very pleased. Friend of mine goes here and recommended it to me. Barbers are very nice and do a great job. The price is very reasonable especially for the fantastic work they do. I Really like hearing music I'm familiar with in the background. If looking for a new place and in area, this is a spot to hit up. read more

They said set an appointment online so I did. Showed up for my appointment and they said guy doesn't work here anymore and I had 3 people ahead of me. Thanks! read more

Finding a great place to get my hair cut after moving to a new city is like trying to find a unicorn. I don't want to go to a spa or salon with cucumber water, I don't want a "stylist" who won't cut my hair the way I like, and I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a woman's cut when I have really short hair; if I'm getting a "men's cut," I want to pay that price. (I won't get into how problematic all of that is in the first place, at least not now.) But HEY, I found that unicorn. Clippers is outstanding. This was my first experience in a barbershop, and I absolutely love it. You walk in, add your name to the list, and wait for the next available barber. I usually just get a cut from the next barber on deck, but if you want someone in particular, you can write their name next to yours and wait until they're available. I made the rookie mistake of going on Saturday morning on my first visit, and the line was pretty long. But now I usually go during my lunch hour or right after work during the week, so my wait time is minimal if existent at all. And let's address the fact that I'm not a man but get my hair cut at a barbershop. I'll admit I was nervous to go and didn't know what kind of reception to expect, but everyone there has been very polite and friendly. I don't need special treatment, but it's nice not to have anyone make a big deal out of it at all. Clippers takes cash or credit cards, and you can tip on the card. The prices can't be beat. Finding this place has made my adjustment to SA much easier. read more

For me, it's my go to place, same barber, same shop. I get in early, and Heron for the past few years has got me taken care of with my great cuts. I've always had a good experience and shown courtesy. There's a variety of skilled barbers, and various types of customers. For me, there is no other place I'd go. read more

It took me forever to find a place I can trust my hair with. I've tried all the places you could think of, and I'd always end up with a so so product. Clippers is another story. I've been here about 5 or 6 times already and every cut is on point. My barber is Chris, master of the rockabilly style. Great dude, real professional. Shop is always clean, and pomade selection is awesome! Always a good vibe when I'm hair. Definitely what a barbershop should be. read more

Great barber shop for men who appreciate a REAL barber shop. My favorite barber, Chris, is one cool dude. He does a great cut, has a great personality and does a fantastic straight razor shave. The prices are fair too. It's also not so bad that they are located next to one of my favorite restaurants. Dough. I usually grab lunch, then head to the chair for a cut and shave. read more

This place is the best barber shop in town! The environment is awesome and they do such an amazing job! After taking my brother to numerous of barber shops, we could never find someone to cut his hair just right. After coming here, we're never going anywhere else. We got there 10 minutes until 6 and they still took us with no hesitation. I was beyond amazed with the product and their customer service is great as well! Just love it here! read more

Clippers Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Julio did amazing work on this killer faded haircut. Going to come back again with amazing energy in the shop. Thank you again

My husband has been going here for years so we decided to take our son. Heron is always so patient with him and even goes as far as turning on a kid show for him during his haircut. We've always been very satisfied with the cut he's done on our son. My husband has had multiple barbers cut his hair and hasn't had a complaint about any of them! read more

Tl;dr: adequate to quality cuts, depending on barber - lackluster customer care. Flashback to 2014: I had recently moved to SA and needed to find a place to get a decent cut. I tried this place based on its yelp reviews. The cut was acceptable if not remarkable. I settled on another shop for some time, but the disappearance of Adrian from the Olmos Park Barber Shop led me to try this place again in Jan. '18. I walked in to a crowded shop, and reserved my spot on the list after one of the shop employees estimated an approximate 45 minute to an hour wait. More than two hours later, my name was called. Apparently, one of the barbers who was scheduled to show never did. I finally received a cut from a friendly young lady with buzzed hair. Her skills were superlative, and I've never had a better cut. I left happy and couldn't really fault the shop for a longer, even much longer, than anticipated wait. Fast forward to today: Feb. 24. I walked into another large crowd (hey, competency draws a crowd, right?). I printed my name on the only list visible on the table upon which the sign-in sheet customarily sits (past the first row of chairs, to the right). All of the printed lines were already filled-in, so I printed my name in bold letters at the bottom of the sheet, following suit with at least five other waiting-patrons who likewise improvised. I asked a friendly employee how long he estimated the wait to run. He responded "about an hour". I asked if it was ok to grab a bite in the meantime. He said that such would be fine. Another employee advised me to check the sign-in sheet upon my return to make sure I wasn't skipped. I planned to return in less than the estimated wait time, though. I ate too much over the next 40 minutes at the incomparable Dough Pizzeria next door, which about makes up for my disappointment that would follow. When I returned. There was a new sign-in sheet populated with over a dozen names, none of which were mine. I was told by a friendly employee that a new sheet was created wherein the customers who signed-in on the overflowing sign-in sheet on which I penned my name were transferred. Evidently, it was not possible to simply call names from the original sign-in sheet from top to bottom. I was told to sign-in again, at the end of the list, necessitating waiting all over again. I kindly voiced my chagrin at her suggestion, and she responded that she couldn't bump me up in the queue because she didn't know when I signed in originally. I replied "12:45"; it was 1:17. She retorted that she couldn't ascertain when the other potential transferees signed-in, so I was out of luck: "But I don't know when the others signed-in." I smiled and left without signing-in again, accepting my defeat. I'm sure that to Clippers, the loss of one customer's revenue on one busy afternoon is inconsequential, but to me, the experience has incentivized me to search for another shop that would appreciate me more as a valued patron rather than as livestock. I toil mightily to earn my pay, and I choose to vote with my dollars. read more

I've been going to this place for 11 years now. I've worked in customer service for 10 years now, and after today I will never go back again. The person who cut my hair had the most attitude and treated me like I was stupid. Literally did not listen to a word I said and gave me the worst haircut I honestly have ever had. I just went home and shaved my head. If you like long waits, people being put infront of you because they are homies, full of them selves barbers, and over priced everything, this is definitely the place for you! read more

Clippers is where Men go for real haircuts. Chris the barber is the tits. Never a bad cut and shave. I refer all my friends, family, and clients here. The prices are outstanding as well for the amount of detail and precision you get. Reminiscent of when i used to get haircuts with my gramps...but way better music. Never seen a bad cut from anyone who works there. Do yourself a favor and drop in for a cut, you will not be dissatisfied. read more

Great shop with a lot of skilled, friendly barbers who are truly passionate and pay attention to details. Even though there is always a wait, I feel like they need to time manage better and realize that when there is 1-1 1/2 hour wait then they should limit the amount of talking they do with clients and shouldn't be texting on there phones with clients in the chair, so that they can get ppl in and out. Understandably, if you're short handed, it's going to take a bit longer, but realistically if you focus on working you don't have to keep clients waiting too long. I've worked in the industry myself and know how frustrating it is for people to wait even as a walk-in. You can find the balance between giving people good service without coming off as short while minimizing wait times. I do recommend it, but not if you don't have all day to waste waiting to get a cut. read more

Reviewing on behalf of my boyfriend who goes here every single time he needs a hair cut. Seriously he won't go anywhere else. He's had different people cut his hair each time there and is always satisfied. Last time we went he got a shave and a haircut and loved it. The barber shop isn't just a get you in a chair, give you a crappy hair cut, take your money and get you out the door, kind of place. They barbers take their time! Which yes it kinda sucks for a wait time but you get a great haircut. He usually calls ahead of time to put his name on the list if there is one. It's definitely a man place to go and get your hair cut and hang out. read more

I've searched near and far for a home barber shop since my move to New Braunfels back in July. Although, this is nowhere near home for me, I'm willing to make a drive out here once a week for a fresh cut (that's got to say something, right?). I've been here about three time so far and have had a different barber each time and the one thing they all have in common is that they can all cut hair. They can do anything from undercuts to fresh fades. The only thing I dislike is the fact that you can't make appointments, which ends up being a good thing sometimes. I typically go in on a Monday or Tuesday to avoid the long waits. A little side note: They sell Layette and Sauvecito and some other pomades for your styling needs. read more

The haircut itself was okay. But the guy (didn't get his name, skinny tatted up) who cut my hair was too harsh on my hair and left a terribly big bruise on my neck. He seemed to be rushing to leave for his lunch or something but definitely not worth the $30 I paid. Could have gone someplace cheaper and gotten the same exact service. I thought I was paying for quality, unfortunately I didn't receive for what I thought I was investing in. read more

I had some great cuts , but unfortunately my barber who I really liked apparently doesn't give a shit about his customers. Hands out business cards but never answers his phone. I tried to get a appointment but kinda hard when he doesn't answer. When I finally gets to the shop after I've waited over an hour tells me doesn't have time. Now this isn't the first time , heron a great barber but your douche bag when it comes to customer service. No this isn't a reflection on the staff just Heron. read more

First time going there and my experience was just great! Chris gave me a awesome cut and the atmosphere at Clippers was just awesome everyone was so friendly. Clippers is the only place I will ever go to get my hair cut anymore. read more

Clippers Barber Shop - I will return - Barbers Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I used to bring my son here. The guys here really know what they are doing. As for friendliness, some express it and some don't. Recently, I took my grandson. The guy who greeted wasn't to friendly and left us hangin there for a bit. But the guy who came out from the back room, cut my grandsons hair, was friendly and gave a great cut. He received a "Wow!" From his tiny customer. TIP: Masks are required during cut. We used a hospital grade blue mask tied a knot to the ear elastics to fit my grandson better, tucking the mask under the elastic to close the holes on the sides. read more

The barbers here are all really good and they really do care/proud of giving you a great haircut that looks good too. Not too many places left like this. They definitely will go the extra step to make sure you'll have a sharp haircut. One thing though if you don't have an appointment be prepared to wait. Some of the barbers are faster than others for what looks like very similar haircuts. They could be better about this but the trade off is you leave and won't regret it bc of the kick ass haircut you'll receive. read more

Second time they decide to close early on a whim. "Oh the other barber decided to leave so I'm not planning on taking anyone else." This was a full hour before closing time and with no one waiting in line. If you can't keep your business hours then change them, don't waste people's time. read more

Let me just say first hand that I love this barber shop!!! Even if you don't need a haircut this is a great place to hangout and shoot the breeze. But... Why not get a haircut or shave while you're there! This place is a nostalgic barber shop like they used to have back in the early 1900's. They are a dying breed and I'm glad that clippers is still carrying on the tradition! Chris (the barber) is ready to whip out the old straight razor anytime you need a shave! Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the old music that is constantly piping out of the antique stereo. Whether it be Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, or even the cramps, you will find your foot tappin to the rockabilly beat while they lather on the heated shaving cream. They have a big barrel full of peanuts and an endless collection of magazines (I'm not gonna mention that they even have playboy) to read. The walls are chocked full of old nostalgic photos and antique barber shop trinkets. So whether you need a shave, an old fashion haircut (be sure to have them taper it in the back), or just wanna hangout with some of the coolest cats in San Antonio and talk about fast cars and women, then head over to clippers and kick back, unwind, and take a break from life! Don't forget to tip the barber or you'll hear (circa 1955) "WHY I OUGHTTA"!!!! read more

See all

First and only time I will get my haircut here. Nice looking barbershop and friendly staff. My barber who barely understood English did exactly what I told her not too. I asked for something too. I wanted a 1 on the sides faded not too high instead I got 1 not faded shaved all the way up with no blend to the top that i asked not to be cut. Real simple. read more

Amazing barber shop been going for the past 3 years and still going I love clippers Barber Shop

This place was good for an average cut while Sweet was there or if the owner cut your har.. But then it got worse and worse. Chris had cut my hair once before and butchered my beard. I decided to give him another chance on just the hair. My cut is pretty simple. After he was done I thought he had given me a little razor burn which is annoying enough. When I got home my wife gasped because there was actually a good bit of blood on my neck. So not only is he so bad with a razor that I end up bloody, he and the owner let me walk out of there without saying a word. Would not recomend to anyone. read more

I got a great haircut there, and I will return. However, there is one thing about the place that really bugs me. They will not let you make an appointment, but they let people sign up, tell the person about how long the wait will be, let them leave, and then come back expecting to be ahead of anyone who came in later. What is the difference in this and allowing me to make an appointment? When I find a barber who can cut hair just as well somewhere that makes appointments, I will go there instead. read more
