Jayme your barbers are cool, they're friendly and your shop has a cool vibe. Thank you for bringing my beard back to the right size and shape. It feels great! *also love the skateboarding videos, sometimes playing on the big screen... Highly recommend checking out this shop! read more

Talentless barbers. I showed them a picture of exactly what I wanted and the lady decided to do whatever she wanted. It looked nothing like the picture I showed her. My beard went from being 2 inches long down to a half inch. I wanted to grow it out so this turned out to be a horrible experience. read more

This is my hubbies regular barber shop. He goes here every few weeks for a trim. Went first at 10:30am, 6 people in front of him and only one barber. Back after 11:40 and waited for a half hour for a cut, there were only 3 peeps ahead then. They take their time and makes sure he's satisfied. Full cut $21 or so and trim is about $17, like today. He does walk in and so he has a different barber each time. Took about a half to 45 minutes. They don't wash, blow dry or put gunk in the hair, they just cut and minor style and you are out the door. read more

My boyfriend and I just moved to the area a few months ago and we have tried a few barbers around here but non of them could give him the exact cut the way he wanted it. He has thick hair and a thick beard but likes both to be trimmed short and tight. Goodfellows did just that! It took a little longer than I thought, but the finished product was amazing. Friendly people with amazing service. My boyfriend will definitely be back, he has found his new barber for sure!! If you're skeptical like I was at first, just give it a shot and you won't be disappointed! read more

My haircut is amazing. I seriously look so fresh. Be warned: it's cash only. I cannot express how much I appreciate the staff. They were so sweet. read more

Goodfellows Barber Shop - Nothing better than a great haircut! - Barbers Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

See all

I have always have enjoyed the classics and I am adding Goodfellows to that list. Denise has been cutting my hair for a few years now and I have never walked out of her very comfortable shop disappointed. She has earned my respect as a great barber because of her masterful skill in handling scissors, clippers and a straight razor. I've noticed she gives all her customers equal amounts of attention and we all look good, at least hair cut wise. Parking right in front of the shop and right on Woodward Ave, makes her location perfect for me. Direct and straight forward. Although I prefer to always have Denise cut my hair I would be comfortable with anyone on her staff. Her style and influence shows in all the work they do. I would highly recommend Goodfellows. read more

Goodfellows Barber Shop - Not much on top but skillfully groomed. - Barbers Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

I am new to the area and went in for a much needed haircut. I paid $21 excluding tip for an okay haircut and a bleeding back of my neck. The worst part is that the guy didn't even bother telling me he accidentally cut me while shaving the back of my neck. I found out on the drive home that I had blood oozing down my back. I was pretty disappointed with such unprofessionalism. I would have completely understood if he would have explained to me that it was a mistake. I guess Merry Christmas to you too. read more

Wow, Goodfellows Barbershop is tremendous. I've been a customer for years and I still get excited every time I go back. I have a lot of hair to deal with and where other barbers tried to get it under control by cutting it extra short or trying something that is difficult to maintain, I've walked away unhappy. Denise the owner of the shop has years of experience, and keeps her customers looking good. I like to refer to my hairstyle as a Classic Cut with trendy styling. I'm in advertising and it's all about trust and presentation. Denise makes sure I look my best. Who doesn't appreciate good grooming and she makes it easy. Goodfellows is a barbershop, it's Not one of those trendy salons or over priced "attitude" and "opinionated" chat zones. It's a place to get a great haircut and while you are there perhaps join in on light conversation and enjoy a laugh or two. Stop in and give Denise a try. She just brought in 4 completely restored vintage barber chairs and they are very comfortable and fun to experience! She even uses quality vintage clippers! No reproductions here! I truly love the shop and recommend her highly! read more

Goodfellows Barber Shop - As you can see I'm no model but I really like my haircut and so will you! - Barbers Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

I've used them a couple of times, and didn't get the same barber, but got the same result..an excellent and fast haircut. This is a great shop! One thing though: it's a cash or check only shop. read more

Came in for the first time today and got faded up by Denise. She is very attentive and cut my hair exactly how I asked. She even cleaned up my neck with the razor and put product in my hair. I would highly recommend this barber shop. The staff was very pleasant and I'm definitely going back! Heads up.... cash only. Don't forget to tip! read more

Had great experience. Very good hair cut. Wife approved so you know its good. :) Friendly staff. Sad to see the couple people left 1 star because they don't understand how a business works. read more

Continue to have a fabulous haircut for $20 ($15.00 with $5.00 tip)! Jason is great. Very laid back and easy. Tip: weeknights...not weekends. read more

I've been coming here for a very long time now and its a pretty comfortable place. I'm not really in need of a $50.00 haircut from one of the Royal Oak salons so I toggle between this place and Sands. I rarely have to wait more than 15 minutes when it is busy and the staff are very friendly, and as will all local places they tend to remember regulars and they way their hair cut. Its decorated in old memorabilia from the turn of the century through the 70s. I do wish they offered straight razor shaves but no complaints. A standard haircut is $15.00, so lets call it $20.00 with tip. read more

Great haircut and conversation! Have been coming here for over a year, haven't had a bad cut and they good at shaping and trimming beards! And you can't beat the price. read more

The haircut was okay. The barber seemed nice and gregarious. The cut was $18 dollars. I didn't have cash but the barber insisted that I could go to the bank after and pay. I went to BOA, came back, handed him $40, asked him to cut $22 and return $18. After a long deliberated math and using his cell phone, he hands me $17. I wanted to tip $4, but was forced to tip $5. The extra dollar didn't kill me. I would have been okay tipping $5, but not in the manner it happened. I didn't make a fuss. I apprecIate when businesses allow me to exercise my freedom rather than jimmy a dollar. read more

So pissed. $60 for a taxi and they're closed during normal business hours. I am from out of state for training, so I called them the day before to make sure they would be open. She said "yes, see you tomorrow". $60 later, I'm paying for a wasted round trip around Michigan. I cannot even begin to describe how furious I am. I was super excited to get a trim and beard trimming from what seemed to be an awesome vintage barbershop. Their unprofessional-ism is the worst I have seen. read more

Not over priced and has a great staff. I prefer Pat. He is an amazing barber! Walk ins only.

This is my favorite barbershop of all time the lady there are really really nice I really like the owner there's never a long wait and it's like people that actually care how your hair turns out do not skip this pace read more

Even though Denise the owner is a bit curmudgeonly, she gives a great consistent haircut. I always have her do my cut but my sons use the other barbers and are very satisfied as well. The shoppes atmosphere is very laid back and comfortable like a neighborhood barbershop should be. I highly recommend Goodfellas! read more

Stopped in for a haircut based on reviews I saw online. I have to say, I was impressed. She had mentioned she has been cutting hair for over 30 years and promised she would do a good job. I think it was the best cut I have gotten in the Royal Oak area. I would definitely go back and get another cut. Definitely recommend! read more

Denise is an old fashion barber that takes her time and makes sure your haircut is perfect before you step out of her chair.

I have been going to Goodfellows for over ten years. I am always highly satisfied with my haircuts. The atmosphere is relaxing and customers are treated well by the owner and staff. There is always conversation between the clients and the barbers which is most enjoyable and often informative. I've learned of some great eateries as I waited for my turn in the chair. I also find the price of the haircut to be quite reasonable and it includes a hot lather neck shave. Denise and her staff tailor each cut to the individual customer. No detail is overlooked. It is my go to barber shop. read more

Honestly never got cut here ... waited outside with three other cars and ended up leaving 20 after they were scheduled to open ...

This place is the best. No BS, straight-up old school barbershop. Fair prices and real barbers. They are open minded to all clientele, I see old men, weird hip dudes and cool queer chicks in there all the time. Shave and a haircut, Denise (owner) is the bomb! read more

After moving back to the Detroit area a little over a year ago, I struggled to find a really solid barber that didn't leave me making my own adjustments when I got home. I bounced around some of the newer places and while they were nice, I just didn't get a haircut I loved. Until I discovered Goodfellows. Denise and her team are fantastic at what they do, and I love the vibe (think vintage historical political bumper sticker and eclectic hat collection with classic pop culture nods and amazing music on the stereo type of place). If you want a great cut and a great experience, look no further!! read more

Great family friendly barber shop. I've been taking my kids here since they were 5. They love the laid back and friendly atmosphere. As a member of the St Mary's school board committee I know other parents share the same opinion. I highly recommend Goodfellas! Thanks Denise for welcoming my family to get their hair cuts and look great for years to come! read more

Great barber and reasonably priced. I got two compliments on my hair today so they must be doing something right. I really like the vibe of the place - old school and nice people. read more

Overall place gives off great vibes. I went from a $10/haircut guy to a $25/haircut guy very quickly. Andrew Carpenter really hooked me up with one of my best haircuts. Did a great job of understanding the look I was going for. Much appreciated! read more

Great cut. Great convo. Go early beat the rush. The retro feel of the shop is real from the decorations, the old style chairs and straight razor edge up. Amazing... read more

I moved from Georgia 7 months ago and was on a voyage to find the right barber until I came across Goodfellows and Patrick. I didn't have to explain much but Patrick got me exactly what I wanted on day one. They are very professional at their work but also friendly AF. I would recommend anyone to go get a haircut from them and I'm sure you won't go anywhere else. read more

Jason is great. Good barbers are getting rarer these days it seems. I recommend him in a heart beat.

From Detroit originally, live out of state and have tough hair to cut. Stopped in Goodfellows and had a seemingly flawless cut. Didn't catch the barbers name but he was a younger guy with red hair. I'll be back every time I'm in town. read more

I got my hair cut here for the first time this weekend. Coming from a salon that I had gone to for years I was bit nervous making the switch, but I'm happy I did. I didn't catch the young ladies name who cut my hair, however, she consulted with me on exactly what I wanted, and her attention to detail was something I'm not used to. She fixed any sort of mishaps that might have been done by my previous stylist, and even went as far as giving me tips on how to style it moving forward and where we would take my hair as I continue to come in. Super happy with the end result and look forward becoming a regular. read more

This is my go-to barbershop. Always fun, friendly, and not to mention the talented barbers. I've never walked out of this place unhappy and they offer a good experience from the time you walk in the door until you walk out. 10/10 do recommend. This place is the best shop in town! read more

Really cool old school barber shop, I've been going there for years and never disappointed

Its a nice quiet place to get a haircut. They do a good job. They are inexpensive. No reservations required. Their hours are sometimes not completely predictable. read more

I'm not sure they should be able to call themselves a Barber Shop. I should have known I was in trouble when the guy that had just left came back in while I was in the chair and he left me sitting there while he attempted to Fix the guys haircut. I probably should have got up and left with half a haircut. I ended up going home and guiding my son through evening up the back and sides with my clippers ( I cut my sons hair, just not my own.) The guy said he could do a flat top, He Was Wrong !!! read more

Great barbershop. Denise does outstanding job. Go here for a great haircut without the high price.

Denise has been a barber a long time! She knows what's she doing! A real barber!! And the shop is super cool inside!!
