Even if I have been away from Asbury Park for a time, it's always like coming home when seeing these guys...always welcoming, always positive, always service with a smile. This atmosphere means a lot customer service wise. This shop here is still bright, open, clean, and classic cool as it is modern. Sean always does a great job with my head shave and beard trim, and I always book an appointment when in town, it's a must! Still giving all the stars to John, Sean, Andrew, and all the staff/artists here at Talking Heads Barbershop...great job!

Every barber here is as good as they come. When you first walk in, you can tell that John is a…read moregreat owner and that all of the guys are happy to be working there. This place has all of the charm of an old school barbershop. All that's missing is an actual quartet. I had long hair that I decided to finally cut in February of 2020 and I haven't gone anywhere else ever since. I have a crazy thick head of hair that is not easy to cut whatsoever, but both John and Sean do an excellent job every single time.

I had Enzo who was rushing through the cut like he had somewhere to be. He clearly wasn't paying attention to anything because he asked me the same questions multiple times. A kid out of barber school could have done a better job than him. I left totally dissatisfied and am now looking for another barber shop to see if I have any recourse other than buzzing my head. He went too short and too uneven. I'm shocked with the good reviews because I've never receive a worse haircut in my life. You know a haircut is bad when the barber says "don't worry, it will grow back".

I've gone through hundreds of these city barbers and they either don't listen or don't change their ways. In fact, if my partner and I get into a heated argument?

I was told by the owner (Shain) that I'd have to wait for a bit, and then she got me in her chair about 25 minutes later. I walked out about 25 minutes after that with one of the best haircuts I've ever had. I will definitely be back. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she explained why my hair wasn't right for that cut - then she used her expertise, a hair straightener, and some product to give me EXACTLY what I wanted! I will definitely be back to see Shain. I told her how happy I was and that's when she told me that she doesn't usually cut women's hair. Ha! If she had said that in the beginning, I might have had doubts but she did an awesome job. Thanks, Shain - see you the next time I need a cut!
