I've been getting my hair cut from Lisa for 20+ years. Fewer hairs, but always looks good.

5 stars+ Heading out on vacation soon and needed a last minute haircut, nearly everyone was closed early for the upcoming 4th of July weekend. I was able to call up and arrange a haircut within 30 minutes, really unprecedented. I wasn't sure what I'd receive under such short notice. The owner accommodated me into her schedule and may I say, she did a wonderful job! easily one of the best haircuts I've ever gotten. And for only $30!? I'm shocked. She made me feel welcomed and comfortable. Most times the barber just see hair and they go willy nilly -- not her, she cut just the right amount. I'm very happy with the results! read more

The hairdresser (owner?) is thorough and complete with her work. I received an excellent cut I have received from other stylists in years. My only regret is that is didn't start coming to her sooner. read more

I've been looking for a barber since my favorite place closed over in Tysons Corner during COVID. I tried this place out yesterday, and had a great experience. So there isn't a website from what I could find, but the number that's listed can be called or texted for an appointment. I texted it and got a message back after hours on the same day. I made an appointment the next day and everything went great. Lisa was the only person in the barber shop when I arrived, and she asked exactly what I wanted. I followed up by letting her know what I wanted and she went to work. I will honestly say it's the best side fade I've ever received and at a pretty great price! ($26 for a cut, neck shave, and style). I'll definitely be back! read more

I have been coming here for quite some time now, and Lisa always does a great job. Lisa runs the barbershop by herself and is super friendly. This place is cash only and has an ATM conveniently located inside. Suggest making appointments in advance. The hot towel neck massage is worth trying. read more

Lisa is the best! I have been having my hair cut by her for the last 7 years. I couldn't have any other people to cut my hair anymore. read more

I just took my daughter to get her hair cut here. It was fantastic. The stylist (who had great hair herself) gave my daughter the best haircut of her life. We have gotten her pixie cuts a few times and they havent been fantastic but this one was great. Even though it was an inexpensive cut ($20) for a five-year-old, the stylist gave my daughter tons of attention and used all the tools, products, hair dryer to make it look like a stylish and adult-worthy pixie cut. All covid precautions were taken as well. We will definitely be back with prices so good. Thanks so much! read more

Lisa is great and a wonderful haircutter! I have been going to her for several months now and have had a fantastic experience every time. Very affordable men's haircut that comes out looking amazing. While I always call ahead to schedule an appointment, she welcomes walk-ins as well. I certainly plan to continue going to her and recommend you do as well! read more

I have been coming to Lisa at Metro Barber for many years. Well before she opened her salon she was cutting hair at other places in Fairfax. Each time she moved, I moved with her. I now live in Houston TX but when I want a quality haircut at a fair price and am in VA I come to her. read more

First I will have to point out that parking may be hard to find when you locate this place via GPS. It's on the same building but completely on the otherside next to the dental clinic. (It's a metro parking spot of some sort) But I recommend making an appointment. She is super friendly and has an ATM in the shop incase you need it. Hair cuts: She knows how to blend and how to style. She will ask your recommendation and provide some suggestion. THe 2nd time you go your haircut will be better than the first. Cost or haircut is about 18 dollars or so. There are good food places to eat close by and easy to get to. read more

Definitely my go-to place since moving to the area. Lisa is very kind and cares about you as a client. I feel at home here (comfortable, non-pretentious, quiet environment) and get what I am looking for at a reasonable rate ($35 for haircut and detail-oriented beard trim). Make an appointment over the phone and being cash for optimal experience. read more

I've been getting my hair cut at Metro Barber & Salon for a little over two years. Lisa has consistently given me a great cut and is always on schedule when I call ahead to make an appointment. She provides great recommendations on how to keep my style up to date and refine my look to best accentuate my natural features. Priced at around $18 for a cut, it's not only affordable but a great value. If you are new to the area, I highly recommend Lisa for you style needs. read more

Hidden gem by the metro...appointment only for now but hair stylists knows what shes doing. She made me feel comfortable and price are fair. Would definitely go again read more

Needed a haircut at urgent notice. She responds by text and is very good at layering the fade and giving you a scissor cut on top. I was satisfied with my haircut. read more

I was in town for 3 weeks, and desperately needed a haircut. I definitely recommend metro barber! She was really nice and gave me a pretty good haircut, especially for my pretty thick asian hair! She was very detailed and was taking her time, which I immensely appreciated! read more

Got a quality hair cut. Scheduled an appointment the same day. Got in and out with much of a wait. She did a good job with my fade.

Lisa really knows her way around a good haircut! I had been struggling to find a good barber in the Merrifield/Arlington area of Nova for some time. But after moving close by, I found Metro Barber & Salon and have been returning ever since. Lisa is quick but meticulous with her cuts and is really great with fades, especially 'subtle' ones. If you're new or just have a broad idea with what you want, she will have a suggestion or two but won't at all pressure you into something you don't want. (I'd make the personal suggestion of getting a wash to go with the cut - sometimes the extra bit in self pampering is incredibly refreshing!) The price for a mens cut is about $20-22. And for the quality of cut you receive, the price point is pretty good IMO. The shop is cash only, however there is an ATM housed inside if you're in need of it. From what I've been able to tell, it really is a one person shop. So while Lisa does take walk-ins, you're better off (and it's a bit more considerate) if you call ahead - especially if you make the mistake of walking in during 'peak' hours after work. If you have the patience, she'll definitely do her best to fit you in if there are others ahead of you and if they've called ahead. Otherwise, she will be polite enough not to waste your time and ask if you could return at a later date and time. Parking here can be a little tricky if you're not familiar with the immediate area. Street parking in front of the shop is always the hardest as residents from the surrounding condos do happen to 'camp' in those spaces from what I've been able to tell. Fortunately, there is customer parking in the Halstead II condo parking garage off of Hallstead Lane (kind of across from the District Taco). If you're a bit hesitant to park here, don't fret! There are several actual dedicated spaces specifically for the barber/salon inside the garage, so don't worry too much about finding a space there. If you're looking for a nice, clean and family-friendly place that offers quality haircuts at competitive prices, then look no further than Metro Barber & Salon! read more

Metro Barber & Salon - Clean low taper fade by Lisa! - Barbers Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Ok haircut and not that great of a beard trim (though, I'm pretty picky when it comes to them). I would rate the place as 'decent' perhaps the star ratings are artificially high because she gives a $5 discount for those who write reviews and you have to write it right in front of her. read more

Good price for (a "meh") Women's trim. Only one stylist was preset. She was limited English proficient, which normally wouldn't bother me except when I said, "3/4 inches, she thought 3-4 inches--scares the heck outta a long haired mama! Not that it was a dealbreaker, but she was also on the phone cutting my hair. Ya get what ya pay for I guess, as haircuts are $75 at my normal salon!designated "metro salon" Parking is also a bit odd just so ya know---completely opposite the salon. You have to walk outside, entirely around the building. Only residents can walk thru the building. At least there's parking tho! Ok haircut I guess. read more

The price was very reasonable: $18 for a men's cut, $14 for a boy. Thing is, I asked Lisa to leave it really long on top, and I showed her with my fingers how long I wanted it to be. She cut it to about half that length. Now I look like Mr. Potatohead. I guess I could have, and should have, been more explicit. Word to the wise, I suppose. I'll try one more time and update my review accordingly. Also, make sure to call ahead. When I walked in, it was just Lisa, and she was already pretty booked. read more

This was my first time stepping into this barber shop and Lisa is one of the best barbers that I have had. She puts the effort in making sure that you end up looking how you want to look. Not a lot can do this type of customer service but Lisa can. Would recommend going back and will go back for my future cuts. Thanks Lisa! read more

I recently stopped by because my normal place and person was booked and I needed a last minute cut. Tucked in a very weird location there is dedicated parking but around the building. Very slow shop one lady (I think the owner) runs the show. Cash only business Didn't take direction really well even in her native language of Korean Only reason I would go back is because I need a last minute rush hair cut, and it's close to my apt but other than that I would rather drive to centreville from this location to hit my regular lady. read more

For men's cuts, the price is a bargain. Her attention to detail is really great. For $22, you get more than you paid for. Out of the barbers in the area, definitely my favorite one so far. read more

Best barber in the area. I've been coming here for a while because the haircuts are so great. You get what you want, consistently, and Lisa takes he time to remember you. She will even take a picture of your great haircut and store it to remember for next time. The shop is super clean, tons of parking across the street, and fair prices. I truly love this place and cannot recommend it highly enough. We are men and deserve a good haircut every 4-6 weeks, come here and make it part of your routine as I have. The compliments I've gotten since coming here are off the charts. read more

Finding a new barber is always difficult. But luckily, if you live in the NOVA region, Lisa is a dependable, consistent, and talented barber to get your haircuts from! (She's also probably one of the nicest people I've ever met!) I used to live 5 minutes down the street but recently moved to the Arlington area, and I still make it over here for my haircuts. If you're remotely in the area and looking for a place to get a shape up, I highly recommend this place! read more

Went for a haircut prior to engagement pictures this weekend. I let Lisa know this, and she went above and beyond to give me a very sharp looking cut and styling. She included a free shampoo as well. My fiancé really liked the haircut/styling and I appreciate that Lisa took the extra effort to have me looking great for the engagement pictures. Will definitely be back again. read more

I have been a regular to metro barber for about a year. Lisa is very detail oriented and I'm always extremely satisfied after a haircut. Location is awesome - right next to metro, and appointments are easily booked. I highly recommend metro barber!! read more

Great service. Appointments recommended and, even then, have a little patience because this is a one-barber shop so appointment times are approximate. Very good quality. read more

Having haircut from Lissa feel that she knows what's she doing because turn your hair in normal shape , take oil or hair gel out from your hair is base of professional hair cutter. And Lissa does that , I see there are nog lot of customers because it's hidden places and most of people don't know that this business is there. Price is very reasonable and also forgot to tell about after hair cut when you got hot towel massage for few seconds make more comfort and relax. Highly recommended this please and come back with my friends. It's better to call her before you go there if you don't want to wait for your term because sometimes she have few people in line. read more

Decided to check this place out on my lunch break, based on the Yelp reviews. I have to say that I am glad that I got my haircut here. Lisa was attentive and knew exactly what I wanted. She was very friendly and welcoming when it was my turn to get my haircut. She may be my go to person to cut my hair. $18 for a cut is definitely worth. But please keep in mind, this place is cash only. I definitely plan on coming back when it's time for another cut. read more

Friendly service and great haircut at the right price. Lisa does a gives a good haircut. She takes her time and works to produce a clean cut. I typically just get a short fade with a trim on top which some buzz quickly through. The haircut comes with a straight razor on the back of the neck and a hot towel. It's almost impossible to get a haircut under $20 but to receive the little extras this place is a bargain. I recommend if you're looking for a quick, clean cut. Other places in the area are more style than substance and typically struggle to get an even fade without looking too boxy. read more

I didn't want to even write a review because it's gonna get harder for me to get a walk in time. The people here are super nice, effective, efficient, and I got a great haircut for a great price! I would recommend to family and friends. Update: I love going to get my haircut now. I go once a month and ask for Lisa. Walk ins are pretty easy and the hot towel at the end always makes my day. read more

Lisa always does a great job cutting my hair. She spends extra time to always get my haircut right. She does the latest styles and works well with both clippers and scissors. Her prices are very reasonable as well. I recommend calling ahead to make an appointment, but she usually can find a timeslot the same day that you call. There is convenient parking across the street over by Avinir Place (Dunn Loring Metro Shops). The place is a bit hidden, so give yourself a little extra time if you are going for the first time. Metro Barber & Salon is my "goto" place. read more

I've been coming to Lisa since we moved here and have never received anything less than a wonderful haircut each time! She is friendly, accommodating and will not let you leave unless she is happy with the way you look. Her prices are competitive with anyone around. Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed! read more

Walked in to get my undercut buzzed down, and Lisa was able to see me right away. She asked all the right questions and the finished product is perfect! A few folks walked in without appointments after I arrived, and Lisa asked them to make appointments for later that day, so it appears appointments are preferred. I'll be sure to make an appointment next time I come down. Overall very happy with my experience! read more

Found this gem on through Yelp and I couldn't be more happier with the results! friendly staff and they cut your hair exactly how you want it! This is my second time coming here and my new favorite spot for a great and affordable cut! Definitely will be coming back in the future read more

My husband and I moved here a month ago. He needed a haircut. This place is right next to our building and we didn't have time to drive somewhere else. So we gave a shot. Lisa is nice since she even accepted us although we were 30 minutes late to our appointment. The haircut is great especially for $18. read more

I started going here out of convenience, but I would come here regardless. She does an excellent job with my hair and it's a pleasant overall experience. The price is right, too. $16 is very reasonable. The barber shop is a little tough to find though. It's on Merillee, tucked into an apartment building. But it's well worth finding and going! read more
