Guys looking for a great place to get your haircut with style, care and consideration vs going into a shop that is focused on getting you out as quickly as possible? Then Gentlemen's Top Option Salon is your place! Colloquially known as GTO, you will be able to easily park (for free) and the owner, Penny, will make sure to line you up with one of her many great stylists so that you come out looking better than when you went in - every time. I've been a customer here for around 15 years + and would not swap for another salon in Chittenden. Why? All others I have tried suck (excuse the very technical term) in comparison to GTO! Hope you enjoy the cut, service, clean facility and ease-of-access as much as I do! read more

Quality and Care - You really get the vibe that you have a salon that caters only to men, and they are just really good at what they do. The venue is nice and well kept, the products they use leave your hair feeling great, and all the stylists are very nice to talk to without seeming overbearing or pushing conversation to the point of annoyance. read more

I've been getting my hair cut here for 13 years or so. I've outlasted a few stylists along the way, but each time, I've gotten a new person who has taken good care of me. I've gone from short, to very long, back to short, and now to bald, and they've been helpful every step of the way. Recently, due to an illness, I needed to have my head buzzed. Otherwise, I was going to shed until I was bald. I called and my normal stylist was busy. I explained what was up with the hair falling out of my head. They found a short window to fit me in, on very short notice, knowing that a triple-zero buzz cut wouldn't take long. At the end, they didn't even charge me for the cut, although I did leave my normal tip. I even got a hug and a "see you in April" on the way out the door. The people here get to know you, they are good at what they do, and they simply make the act of getting a haircut pleasant. I can't wait until my hair grows back and I am due for another haircut. read more

Overall, I couldn't complain about GTO. Doing my hair isn't brain surgery, but still Jenna did a great job. Friendly service all around. Better yet, this place takes a ton of care to get feedback, ensure customer satisfaction, etc. Seemed a little slow on a Saturday morning. Favorite (included) extras that make this place great: the hot towel finish with neck shave, student discount, and head massage with shampooing. $28 - standard price Cash tip -- felt awful not having cash on hand for this. read more

Been a client of GTO for over 20 years, always getting great service. All the stylists are professional, well-trained and friendly. The scalp massage and hot towel after the shampoo and cut are really relaxing after a long day. Off-street parking is a convenient plus. read more

Just got my first haircut here. Top-notch service. Love the hot towel + straight razor neck shave to complete the haircut. Definitely the best experience in Burlington, by a long shot, and I have probably gone everywhere. I got the best haircut I have had in years. Good stuff. read more

This is a fantastic place to get a haircut. The stylists are very professional and very good conversationalists. Each haircut comes with shampoo and a hot towel head massage then finishing with warm shaving cream and a straight razor. The facility is very clean as well. The haircut is a bit pricey (around $28) but given what you get with your haircut, it is worth every penny. There are some room for improvement unrelated to the haircut. They could increase efficiency by using a computer to make haircut reservations and keeping customer information. When paying by credit or debit card, they could allow customers to add in a tip for the stylist. Not everyone carries cash all the time. read more

Full service hair salon for men. They even give massages. Prices are on the expensive side but the haircuts are great.

I have been going here for years. Marla and Jenny are amazing! The service is top notch. I haven't been able to find anywhere that is better. I literally plan my haircuts around trips to Burlington. read more

I've been here before and I've enjoyed the end product, but from the moment I entered this last time, it was a negative experience. The hairdresser didn't introduce herself, didn't ask many questions about what I was looking for and seemingly ignored what I requested. After she made the first cut, she had cut it too short, so asking her to change it was pointless because it would look ridiculous, plus put her in an even worse mood than she seemed to already be in. I'm growing my hair out for Locks of Love and she took off four or five months of growth after I had asked her to just clean it up. Conversation was awful, she didn't really even listen to the words I was saying, evident from the haircut. At the end she asked if I would still like the hot towel in a way that made me think I was inconveniencing her by being there so I just left after paying too much for a haircut and experience I didn't enjoy. This one experience ruined the previous experiences I've had here. Tip: if they have a monotone voice, don't let them touch your hair. -don't take american express -don't accept tips on card, so you leave feeling like a prick if you don't have a checkbook or cash with you. read more

You would only go here for the view... *wink wink* Very good looking girls is the only thing going for this salon. DO NOT GO THERE IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW STYLE. I had a foot of awesome red hair that I have not had cut since I left military school, I told the hair dresser what I wanted; a presentable look that kept the length. I walk out with the WORST HAIRCUT OF MY LIFE. I ONLY HAVE 4 INCHES OF HAIR LEFT! read more

Kelli is great! She's been doing my hair for a while now and never disappoints. The salon and treatment are a definite pleasure with only one downside... it's parking. read more

The best. None better in burlington for a mens haircut. I have been going there for many years and their hair stylists are the best in burlington for the money! read more

GTO is a great place to get a haircut. It's welcoming overall and the service is awesome. Kelli is amazing, friendly, professional and thorough. The shampoo and hot towel head/neck massage is a good finishing touch. I definitely recommend this place. read more

The staff at GTO were extremely rude to a handicapped man. They DO NOT have a ramp or anyway to access their business for those who cannot use stairs and when this gentleman in a wheelchair arrived for his haircut they told him they had a strict cancellation policy and that he needed to let them know in advance next time if he needed to cancel. This type of behavior and attitude towards the handicap is completely unacceptable and should not be tolerated. Myself and several others will never go back to GTO and you should consider spending your money at businesses that do not treat the handicap like trash. read more

Great service and good haircuts. They straight razor the nape of your neck. It lasts for weeks.
