Add me to the list of satisfied customers. Flew in from California and needed a trim before the work week started. Checked for barbershops on Yelp and this place came up as being close enough to the airport, so I headed over. I will admit, it's tough to find. It's not in a strip mall, rather, it's in a house on the second floor. You'll know you've found it when the cutest dog in the world comes up and sniffs your hand. Victoria was great, took me in (without appointment) and gave me a great service. So great, it was light years better than what I was used to getting at home. She also let me know that they do free touch ups between cuts. I think they take appointments, and would encourage folks to make one (I kinda felt bad that I didn't have one, but she didn't make me feel bad at all). We are relocating to the area later this month, and there is no doubt i'll be back. Thank you again Victoria for taking me in without an appointment and saving me a ton of time. read more

Hands down the best haircut I have had in more than 5 years. First off, Victoria was absolutely phenomenal in adjusting to my schedule after needing to change my appointment time. The salon loft is comfortable, clean and a great space to get a haircut. Victoria did an incredible job with my hair and I am so relieved that I have finally found someone I can stick with for as long as I am living in Charlotte. Great price, better haircut, knowledgable stylist, and overall just an extremely enjoyable experience. I would recommend Victoria and Major Barbershop every single time. read more

I've been going to Victoria for over 3 years now and can't say enough good things. She is consistent, reliable, and always very friendly. The salon is clean, well stocked, and easy to get to. Parking is included and you don't have to fight for a spot unlike other uptown lots. As far as the haircut, I've done many different styles and have been happy every time. Cuts include beer / whiskey, neck shave, and shampoo and you're in and out in no time without a wait. On numerous occasions, Victoria was flexible with her time and made sure to accommodate my busy schedule to get a haircut in. Victoria is also is willing to do quick neck trims in between cuts at no cost (like if you have a wedding that weekend, etc...). She goes out of her way to take care of her clients and even organizes events like charity golf tournaments and Christmas parties to get folks together. Go to Major for your next cut, you won't regret it! read more

I've been a happy, loyal customer for 5 or so years. Victoria always does a great job with my hair, which is curly and a bit of a challenge. She and her mother are delightful and I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Their location is also quite nice and extremely convenient to uptown and South End. I have never seen another customer leave, dissatisfied. read more

If you are looking for the best men's haircut experience, look no further than Major's Barbershop. I moved to Charlotte a year ago, found Niki at another salon and have never gone to anyone else since my first visit with her. She does an exceptional job, treats her clients with respect, listens to what type of cut you are wanting and provides you with second to none customer service. Also while you are there let them take care of all your grooming needs. She can clean up your eyebrows, provide an exceptional shave and will keep your neckline and sides trimmed in between haircuts. Exceptional atmosphere, great private parking make this the perfect location in South End / Dilworth. Make an appointment in the afternoon and enjoy a cold beverage while you wait or while getting groomed. If you are looking for a great men's haircut experience, any of these three ladies at Major's can fix you up! read more

This is my #1 place when friends ask where they should go to get their haircut. I have been getting my hair cut by Niki for over 4 years and never once has she let me down. Always respectful of timelines, knows what "the normal" is when she asks what I would like as far as cuts are, and has tremendous work ethic. Since moving to the new office, it's been a breeze getting an appointment scheduled through the Salon Lofts app and she makes sure to not take on too many appointments in a day. read more

Nice people, good haircut. They took the time to get to know my expectations as a new client, and they did good work. The girl I worked with (Jennifer) was a pleasure. They are a little hard to find as they are upstairs in another business, but it was worth the effort to locate. read more

Inconsistent reliability of available time. Unlike common barbershops, there are no apparent. On my previous visit, somebody took me as a walk-in. That person has now left. Trying to arrange for another appointment is a mystery that I could not figure out. read more

Victoria is awesome! Great personality and great skills. I am new to the area and as others, was nervous to find a new place to cut my hair. She was the best! Taper on the sides, trim the top, hot towel and straight razor on the neck, a shampoo and good conversation. What more can you ask for!? Same building as MC3, just pull around back and use the back door, up the stairs and you can't miss them. read more

I just moved to Charlotte and I have been looking for a place to get a cut. Saw this one, it was close and had good reviews so I figured I would give them a shot. Texted Niki and she got me in.... I can tell you I will not be going anywhere else for a cut as long as I am in Charlotte. Mother-daughter owned, super friendly, and she did an amazing job. Check them out! read more

The quality of haircut is phenomenal. I walked in and gave Victoria creative liberty over my hair and it turned out really great! You also get a hot towel, neck shave, shampoo, and even a complimentary beer all for just $25 plus tip. I'm a big fan of supporting small business owners and it's great to see what Nikki and Victoria are doing. It won't be long and it will probably be hard to get a spot in their chairs; they're that good. Get in now. read more

This is seriously the best place to get a haircut near the uptown area. Victoria was absolutely great to have a conversation with and she did a great job with the haircut. She also offered free neck trims in the afternoons! Definitely coming back! read more

Major Barbershop is convenient to the Southend/Dilworth area, right of East blvd. It has its own parking lot behind the building which makes it easy in and out. It is a great experience overall. Top notch service with a hot towel neck and face treatment, straight razor neck trim, scissor cut, shampoo and condition. Yvette, does a great job and is very personable. I would recommend Major Barbershop to any male who likes their haircuts to be an experience. read more

Great place to relax and just have a beer and a cut, shave and trim. I had conflicting scheduling so I had to wait 2 weeks to get a cut and it was worth it. Niki worked with me about getting me in on my hectic schedule and did a great job. She gives a military discount and that is always a Plus for this Veteran. Recommending Major to anyone and everyone looking for a barber. read more

Victoria was very nice and friendly and gave me an excellent haircut (so says the girlfriend). Place is really cool, beer is even offered. I will be returning and recommend everyone goes to get a haircut here. Also, prices are reasonable. Best part might have been the lotion on the back of the neck mixed with the hotel towel. read more

First off, let me say, my hair is curly. Really curly. And I am picky. I came in with a mop of it and photo on my phone. Almost never do I ever get a cut that I don't have to clip away at, to fix it, when I get home. Today was not one of those times. Niki knows what she's doing! Scissors cut throughout, razor neck shave, and a shampoo, hot towel and scalp massage that is awesome! Also, make sure to call for an appointment prior. read more

Fantastic spot, took great care of me on short notice. Will be back without a doubt. If you're looking for a men's cut/style in the uptown or south end area this is absolutely the spot. read more

A review of this business? How can I. I showed up at this referred address, even 15 minutes early. There was no vehicles in the back-private parking as advertised-. I rang the doorbell at the front entrance but there was no answer. I was like vacated. Ok, the business signs were there in the front and near the bldg(house). My son brought me here and was going to drop me off to head out. Instead, he waited patiently as I did. I thought maybe Niki had gone out to lunch, but 1:15 came around and still no one arrived. She even confirmed in her text reply. I assume she recorded somehow this appointment schedule for Saturday at 1:15pm for me. I never even received an update or voicemail to cancel this app't due to some emergency reason. This business would have been the ideal as I work right the down street. Now will have find another suitable business that maybe can do better. read more

Crooked haircut. Uneven fade. Seemed great while i was there until i got home and looked in the mirror. No refund either

Had haircuts and shaves by barbers and stylists around the world. London, Hong Kong, Sydney, NYC, LA, Tokyo etc. Found Major Barbershop in Dilworth as moved from SE Charlotte to Eastover. Without question Major Barbershop a treasure for those who truly desire a PROFESSIONAL Barber. The shop is not fancy but my experiences and the RESULTS have the best I have ever had. Victoria is incredibly professional and with a great personality, sense a humor along with a selection of beers what else can one ask. I know an incredible value for the high quality result. Highly recommend. read more

Just had my first haircut from Jennifer at Major Barbershop and I am very pleased with the whole experience. There was a slight scheduling problem, but they handled it like pros and everything worked out great. Personable stylist, great cut and relaxed atmosphere! I will be back! read more

I came here a couple months back to get my haircut. I had been growing my hair out for 8 months; I wanted the top long and a clean sharp part on both sides leading to a fade down. I specifically said "I do not want to cut any length off the top, I want it to go from short abruptly to long so I can push it to once side or the other and have a clean part." She seemed to listen but ended up blending the entire thing, leaving me with a huge middle length section on both sides (uneven I might add, the left side was blended much better than the right side). It looked like something out a 90's fashion catalog or off a boy-band poster. Not modern at all. After visiting 3 other barbers, we finally decided that I have to start growing it all over again cause they can't easily undo what she did without it looking horrible in the interim. So now I'm back to square one, trying to grow my hair out all over again... The ONLY reason I'm not giving the 1-star is because she was very nice and the atmosphere was inviting. But I would not recommend going there unless you still have backstreet boys posters and think jean shorts are stylish. read more

Awesome shop!!! Simply got tired of getting lackluster haircuts from the large chains where they rush you in and out and its always a guessing game as to the service you will receive. During my search for a more local shop, I came across Major Barbershop. Honestly, I chose them because their prices were cheaper than all other professional barbershops in the area. I am glad I did! Niki cut my hair and she did a fantastic job! Way more attention to detail than I was used to getting at the chain places. Service was generally great and I even got a complimentary beer! I will definitely be a returning customer. Oh and also, they have an AWESOME dog that roams the shop! read more

Just moved to Charlotte and found Major Barbershop on Yelp. I used to go to a place called Finley's in Austin, TX and was looking for a similar experience. It seemed like Shear Excellence and Emerson Joseph had exactly what I was looking for but I didn't want to pay $39 per haircut. In reading through the reviews I discovered that the owners of Major Barbershop (mother and daughter team) used to work at Shear Excellence. So you're getting the same quality haircut here, but for $25 rather than $39. You sacrifice a little on the vibe, but if you just want to chit chat for 20-30 minutes and get a good haircut this place will do just fine. If you want shoulder massages and shoe shines and waiting areas equipped with leather chairs and TVs, you'll have to pay the extra $14 elsewhere. You still get a beer and all the basics here, including free edge outs between haircuts, and the basics are very upscale compared to a Sport Clips or something like that. I thought the building was fairly easy to find and there's plenty of parking in the back. Yelp even has a $5 off special when you check in for the first time. I wish their website had an online booking system though (you have to text one of the owners to make an appointment...not a big deal). Victoria cut my hair and did a good job. She was talkative and very nice. I also appreciated the time she took to style my hair after cutting it so I could get on with the rest of my day. In summary, it's not a "scene" like Shear Excellence or Emerson Joseph, but the price is extremely competitive and these ladies know how to cut hair, which is the most important thing after all. If you're new to town or just looking for a new barbershop, give this place a shot. read more

Scheduled an appointment via text with Niki for 6:15 pm and confirmed with her via text earlier the day of the appointment (yesterday). Show up to the place, it's an old house that has been converted into a business (Spa and Salon). The lobby is lit up and the rest of the house is dark. Wasn't sure If I was in the correct location so I text Niki, but then I see her card on the front desk so I figure I am. I could hear a man and woman upstairs and it sounded like he was the prior appointment finishing up. So he leaves and I figure she'll come down and get me. Nothing. House is silent. 10 minutes pass. I call Niki with no response. I text her again. I call again after roughly 30 minutes. Still nothing. House is still silent and then I hear a bit of movement/sneezing upstairs. Lost patience and left. Waste of time. Came to get a haircut here based on other reviews but won't try again. Couldn't at least respond to your client and cancel for whatever reason or follow up the next day to apologize. read more

One of my coworkers was bragging about how great this place was, so I sent my boyfriend to them and WOW, they did an amazing job - definitely worth the 5 stars - I fully recommend Major Barbershop to anyone looking for an exceptional men's haircut, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Niki! read more

Great haircut! Really listens to what you want. Get a lot for the price. Most places that do a neck shave, shampoo and clean are going to be $10 more expensive if not higher. Def going back! read more
