Daniel C.

I have been going here my whole life. It is a very nice barber shop. Price is not bad: $16.00 for a hair cut.

$16 for a straightforward men's cut ain't bad. This is a laid back classic barber shop. 2 guys ahead of me when I got in. But only waited a few minutes. I had Steve. He was friendly and quick enough. Most importantly, he did a good job. I'd go back if I were back in this area.

Cut my hair way to short and cut the sideburn too high up & crooked.

### 1-Star Disaster at Barber Effects (more like Defects) - Avoid at All Costs!…read more I walked into this barbershop today hoping for a fresh look, showing the barber a clear reference photo of a curly mullet - you know, that trendy, layered style with volume on top and length in the back. What did I get? A buzzed-to-the-bone disaster that looks like it was done with a weed whacker. My curls? Gone. My mullet dreams? Obliterated into a generic, ultra-short crop that makes me look like I lost a bet. Shocked, I flagged down the owner/barber to complain. He took one look, agreed it was "very short" (understatement of the year), and offered to comp the service as an apology. Fair enough, right? But here's where it gets messy: the original barber (JC, as I later learned) didn't even bother lining up my hairline. It's crooked as hell around my temples and neck - like a toddler drew it with crayons. Total amateur hour. I politely asked for JC's name to reference in my feedback, and the owner/barber straight-up grilled me: "Why do you need his name?" I explained I was leaving a review to warn others. His response? "Please don't do that." When I stood my ground and said I absolutely would, he flipped the script - threatened to charge me (and did) for the haircut anyway, and topped it off by calling me "spoiled" as I walked out the door. Spoiled? For expecting a basic competence from a professional service? This place is a joke. Rude staff, zero accountability, and haircuts that ruin your day (and your self-esteem). Save your money and your sanity - go literally anywhere else. JC and the owner/barber should be ashamed. Never again.

My friend and I wanted to do a makeover for fun. After a lot of searching, we ended up at Barber…read moreEffect. While it was out of our way (it's not accessible by metro), we chose it due to the easy to use website, straightforward pricing, great reviews on google and customer images that were exactly the style we were looking for. And WOW... the commute was 100% worth the cost of an Uber ride. We booked with Frank and couldn't believe the magic hands this man has! hahaha. Frank is funny, kind and was super helpful bringing both his expertise and listening skills to the table. We showed up with a few samples of what we wanted and Frank worked his magic on my friend's hair and beard. I also was super annoying recording everything for TikTok (haha!) because, well, we wanted to make a funny video of the experience for our friends - and Frank was so fun to work with. He even jumped in some pictures with us at the end. Most important, my friend got so many compliments on his new look afterwards. I highly recommend Barber Effect and Frank!

When I first moved to the Fairfax area, I went around to a lot of the "best" shops looking for a…read morebarber I could trust. I saw varying levels of skill elsewhere--not necessarily bad work, just inconsistent--but Trieu is easily at the top of my list and has become my go-to. I barber as a hobby--not professionally, just for friends--so I look at haircuts a bit differently than the average client. I'm a pretty normal, low-maintenance guy regarding my own hair, but because I know the trade, it honestly kills me when I see professionals taking shortcuts or ignoring the fundamentals just to turn over the chair. I wanted someone who simply respects the craft, and that is Trieu. His technical approach is unique and demonstrates high-level skill: For medium length on top, he moves away from rote sectioning (holding hair between fingers). Instead, he combs along and against the grain to gauge the natural fall, cuts using a freehand sculpting technique, and thoroughly cross-checks. The Result: This method optimizes the cut for your specific head shape rather than just following a cookie-cutter pattern. It creates natural texture within the cut itself, saving time on point-cutting or texturizing later. Other details you will notice: * Sanitation: Hygiene is on point; he changes out his straight razor blades for every single client. * Detailing: He is efficient, but he doesn't rush the finish. He does multiple rounds of detailing with the trimmers to catch any strays and clean up the perimeter. * The Transition: His scissor work connects the top and sides smoothly for a solid blend. I wouldn't say the fades are 100% perfect, but they are a solid 98%. Given the volume he handles and his efficiency, the execution is exceptional. Like I said, I'm not vain about my hair, I just appreciate good work and quality care. I trust Trieu's skills completely.

Conflicted bc I want to gate keep and not spread the word that you can get a quality cut for a…read moredecent price. But I'm saying you can get a quality cut for a the most reasonable price EVER ($23 + tip). Personally I go to Tina and she has given me quality fades and understands how to cut your hair for style you want. All for $23 + tip?!?!?! (Was $20 but they raised prices in 2024...in an age where current barbers are charging 3x). Save your time and reserve online. I've recommended

Alex is the one who turned me on to Jenny's Barbershop and after my last experience, I needed to get a full haircut and beard trim. My first experience was a fix up, because my wife didn't like my Jarhead haircut. She is going to have to deal with it the next time I get my haircut because I am not going back to the Simon Phoenix or Blade haircuts. As for now, I had my head shaved, but I can't say my head is smooth like a babies butt...on second thought, YES I CAN!:) I like the look of the goatee Jenny did as well. Jenny's tools are the latest in the business as I was informed. This cut the hair to the skin so the razor wasn't needed, but since I am use to a straight edged razor, I asked for it. I saw Jenny brought her dog to work with her. I don't know if the dog is male of female, but it is well behaved. The Olympics was on the television and women's and men's diving was on. It was second time today I have seen the Olympics playing. The first was at the My Eye Doctor's office. Anyhow, Jenny left a good impression and I am bound to come back at least two more times.
