Ms. Katherine is THE BEST for a quick men's haircut! Quick does not mean low quality here. I have taken my son to her for a skin fade just about every month for the past couple of years. She helped to rectify a botched job from a previous barber at a franchise down the street. She even gave me a complimentary trim when she noticed I needed one. I'm happy that she'll be retiring after doing this for 40+ years. She deserves some R&R, but I'm so bummed to be back on the hunt for a good barber who doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I want to stay local (within a 15 minute drive) and really need the convenience of walking in. Ms. Katherine satisfied both of these wants/needs. If you need a good cut with clippers before that holiday party, get it from her before she closes up shop for good this month. read more

I got my hair relayered from Jin. I was definitely happy! It's hard for me to find someone to touch my hair. I will return to get my hair done again. Hair color is next. And of course it's always nice seeing Catherine. Such a lovely woman and always makes us feel welcome. read more

Jin is fantastic. Followed him here after the Miss Yu Salon was sold. Always gets me in and out. Knows exactly how to cut my hair which can be unruly at times. Highly recommend Jin or Ms Katherine. read more

So I went in and it was empty +1 star. The worker cut my ear so -2. She cut it too short -1. There is my review. read more

They cut off half my hair I wanted just a trim worst place ever don't go to this it's a waste of time

I would take the small flurry of 1-star reviews with a grain of salt - frankly they look kind of fake to me (notice how some are people who don't even live in VA - how often when you're out of state do you get a haircut?). The lady who cut my hair (I think the owner) did a fine job. I don't gather her English is very strong, but who cares? She's nice, I can walk in and not wait forever, and the prices are very reasonable. Contrast that to the place just around the corner from them that wants $55 for a basic haircut! I literally laughed out loud and left that place. This might not be the place for some fancy or trendy freak show style, but if you want a good simple haircut at an affordable price, IMO it's a good place to go. read more

Bad haircut- the lady rushed through the job and the end result was sloppy and noticeably uneven. I even showed a photo of what I wanted but the end result was not what I asked for. read more

Gave a bowl cut when I asked for a pixie cut. The haircut looked nothing like the picture I showed as a reference.

I used to go to Cutz for guys but decided to give this place a try because it was very close and not as crowded. Very glad I gave it a try!! The Korean woman who cut my hair is the owner and has 30 years experience. She did a fantastic job and for less money! This is my new goto place:) read more

Do NOT go here if you are expecting good customer service or if you have long hair. When I asked for a specific haircut here, they blatantly did not follow my request and purposefully made my hair super short and even if i did want long hair, it was an awful cut. They were not sorry and did not stop when I told them to, they kept laughing it off. After the haircut, I asked them why they cut it that way and they said it was "Too long", even though my hair was already long enough. I had been working on that hair for a couple years only for them to put it to waste. I would put 0 stars if I could and I do not recommend anyone to come here. read more

If you're a person with Curly Hair or who gets fades do not come here. This place should be called a Saloon. Worst Haircut I've ever had.

My cousin and I made an appointment with Jin to get our hair dyed. I was so surprised that the process was so fast. My cousin for highlights and I got a full color. My cousin loved the new color so much that she wished she dyed her whole head. I showed Jin the color that I wanted and he matched it perfectly. It came out a lot lighter, but then it turned into a natural chestnut brown. I would come back to get my roots dyed. read more

Solid haircuts at a decent price. Straight forward and doesn't try to push extra hair products and services on you like some places. read more

Katherine did a fantastic job cutting my hair! Didn't even have to give her too much direction. Told her how much I wanted off and knew just how to frame the cut to fit my head/face shape. Also, if you have Asian hair, highly recommend coming here as she knows how to work with it! (If you know the ordeal of the hair growing out on the sides as an Asian male, then you understand the frustration). Highly recommend and will be coming back. read more

Stylist ignored my teen's requests and was dismissive when I asked why. He was very upset when she started cutting several inches of hair off that he wanted to keep. He wanted the sides shaved & the length trimmed shaped. WE SHOWED HER A PICTURE! He started crying and saying No. When I asked her why she said what he wanted was "too crazy" so she cut it shorter because that's how she liked it. She was very defensive and rude when I told her that he should get what he wants not what she prefers. I was dumbfounded that she disagreed with that statement. He felt very violated by the whole situation. She didn't even seem apologetic or sympathetic to his distress. I really couldn't believe her response. I'm super sad she'd treat a customer this way...especially a 13yo. read more

I do not recommend Ks Barber Shop; the barber allowed a white customer to head me; I was in the barbershop 10 minutes before the other customer. Also, there was another barber that was available but did approach me for haircut. I usually do not report incidents of lousy customer service, and I wouldn't say I like assumptions. But this one was so blatant it must be brought to the attention of customers. read more

My son just got a haircut by Katherine and it was the WORSE haircut any of my kids ever got. EVER! Didn't listen to what he wanted and he even pointed to the picture on the poster. It was a simple haircut to do. She was not even close. She just wanted to move him out of that chair ASAP to get to another customer. I asked her to fix it and it was a burden for her. Very disappointing and I will never set foot in there again. Katherine was dismissive throughout it all. Very unprofessional. Do not take your kids to this place. Bummer. read more

Not much happy with the cut , felt I was cut too short by the owner. Needed a better hair cut .

Over-rated and mediocre at best. After getting one very good cut the first time I visited, I went back a second time to find that my barber was no longer working at Ks. I went to the barber to the left of the door, next to the window. Not only did the cut fall short of expectations, but the barber scraped my neck with the straight razor to a point she had to stop during check-out to get some kind of ointment to stop the slight bleeding. Granted this was only a scrape, but any decent barber should be skilled when using a straight razor. I'll be looking for another barber. read more

First time going to KS Barber Shop was awesome. She listened to what I ask for and had me in and out quickly!

Great barber shop very friendly and Reasonable priced! I've been going to this shop for some time now don't have any complaints a must try. The new generational barbershop has appointments which doesn't work for me I'm sticking with this one. read more

Love Katherine! I have been going here for several years now and always get treated well. Katherine, the owner, is great!

This place is STELLAR!!!! I bring my son here every few weeks. Catherine is an honest and skilled barber with a lot of experience!!! You will not regret coming here! I always dread going to other places like hair cuttery or sports clips because of the line. This place is more reasonably priced and the quality of cut my son gets is so much better. No nonsense. Solid haircut. She is a master with clippers!! read more

I came here because my hairdresser of 10+ years moved to KS barber. If you want the best hair cut and style in your life then make an appointment with Jin! I have curly slightly frizzy hair and like to wear my hair straight. Jin does his magic and I always come out with a glossy beautiful and manageable style. Lucky for us New York has not stolen him!! read more

Wholly shit! I just got the best haircut EVER. My man John is the dude. Thanks John! See you soon. read more

Pleasantly surprised. Just moved here a couple months ago and hadn't had time to find a barber shop. Saw the grand opening sign and stopped in. Asked for a faux hawk with a 1 fade. I wasn't expecting much but she did an awesome job. I will definitely be back. read more

This barber shop opened several months ago and is really good. Because it's so new, they didn't have a yelp page for the business, so I made one for them, as a customer. They're really good, unlike other barber shops because they treat your hair like fine art, and not like they're stuffing it down a paper shredder. This barber shop isn't crowded, like other more well known ones, so this is the ideal place to go for a haircut. read more

As my husband's stylist;) I can definitely recommend this place - perfect stylish haircut for men.

Best haircut for your money in Richmond. Katherine and her team do a great job with adults and kids. My son and I will definitely be back. Please make sure you stop by...we need more places like this. read more
