Simply the best! Sean has been working with me for almost 30 years. Perfect cut everytime and the other Barbers in the shop are exceptional as well! read more

Everything the reviews say is true. Classy, professional, and masters at what they do. I reached out to Dexter, owner of the salon before booking. I knew I wanted to cut my hair all off. He and I exchanged messages on Instagram and he assured me that Sean was my guy. I booked an appointment online (new customer $80) and the men welcomed me the day of. I felt totally comfortable and knew I was in good hands. Dexter checked in with me as Sean worked his magic, clipping off my pink hair. I asked him for a flower design and he delivered. I knew it would be drastic and I was speechless at the end result. I have gotten an overwhelming positive response, the first coming from a woman in line at Panera. She called me a "boss b!tch" and told me to "keep rocking it." Every day that goes by I'm more confident with my look. As a white woman, it's not a social norm (yet!) to get the "big chop". Knowing I was in good hands helped me take the leap. See my journey on their Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CfXiW8mg3ZE/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= read more

Great service, quality cuts, and a peaceful place that doesn't waste your time... read more

COREY has taken a simple haircut and made it look great on me that many other barbers has failed at.

I have had natural hair for over 20 years. I usually have a super close, yet soft cut. I had my last haircut in December of 2019. Then COVID-19 hit and I started growing my hair out. By August 2020, I was more than ready for a cut. Today I had an epic experience! Today's interlude with Dexter was phenomenal! We talked before he touched the scissors/clippers. I explained to him my desire. The final product was where my desire and Dexter's vision collided and formed a dynamic duo. My salon experience was amazing. Dexter's services exceeded my expectations! I have a new barber for life and I am beyond elated. read more

What just happened?? What did I just experience? Y'all sure do it different 'round here. The appointment confirmation was seamless! I booked my appointment and got both a text and email confirmation instantly. By the time I arrived, the concierge Kevin welcomed me with an offer of a drink, and my barber Aeryk was waiting for me at a clean station. I sat in the chair impressed at how clean and cozy this establishment was. Very nice setup. As if this was not enough, I got a shampoo and condition of my hair, followed by a hot towel for my face/beard. A spritz here and a spray there, I felt truly pampered. All said and done, I was in and out of there in under an hour. Millenium Barbers is staffed with very efficient professionals. I've been in the United States for over 20 years and this was, by far, the best barbershop experience I've had. I will always lookup Millenium Salon anytime I'm in the area. Highly recommended! read more

I have been going to Millennium Salon for years. Dexter's expertise and grace are unmatched. His eye for detail and the ability to actualize your vision by asking the right questions has been a godsend. If I could give 10 stars, I would. I love the environment. I have been to men's barbershops and felt out of place. I feel like I belong when I step in the door. There is a welcoming spirit while still being professional and efficient. Easy to get your hair cut on a lunch break. If you are a Black woman with natural hair, if you are ready for the big chop... check out this spot. The owner, Dexter, is the truth. He has a big heart. He gives back to the community, and he is a joy to talk with. read more

I've been going here since I moved to Silver Spring in 2019. The staff are great, and Aeryk does a wonderful job. I feel listened to and never leave feeling anything less than great. Thanks Millennium, and thank you Aeryk! read more

This was the best experience that I have encountered by far of true craftsmanship, hospitality, and service with PURE CLASS. From the greeting at the door to the ambience to conversation I was treated with care, CLASS, professionalism. My cut... I can't even call it a haircut this was art work by the master craftsman Aeryk. My beard is on pop and this is cleanest fade I've had ever (and I have had my hair cut by Hollywood barbers) excellent salon. Definitely coming back!!!!! read more

Millennium Salon - Pure art!!! - Barbers Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

I completed a big chop with Dexter this past Sunday. I cannot adequately express how grateful and thankful for finding this salon. I has sisterlocks for 18+ years and was ready for a change! I felt at ease from the moment I arrived, with no delay in service. I felt ,OK with my locs, but absolutely beautiful with my new cut. Now, I have officially enter my new/next phase of my life with a gorgeous look!! I have received Complements from the moment I stepped out their door from strangers, family, friends and especially my co-workers. Thanks Dexter, you have a client for life! read more

My brother Tod P. goes here for his shape up/ lines, & beard grooming. I've heard wonderful things about Dex & his team Arykh and the quality services they provide, products used and facial care. It's definitely a black business of distinction worth supporting; open to both men and women for lock care as well, barbering and mens grooming. If I every decide to shorn these long locks- I'm coming here. What a wonderful experience worthy of sharing! Happy to spread the good word! Cheers. read more

My wife, my son and I are regular visitors to Millennium. We love the atmosphere and the quality of services provided there. I always leave the shop looking good. Dexter and the staff at Millennium are top notch. Highly, HIGHLY recommended. read more

I enjoyed my experience here, very professional, friendly, timely, and I got a great skin fade by Brian. The place is relaxing, clean, and has a nice aroma therapy vibe going on as you settle in. You are greeted warmly by everyone when you enter the door which I liked too. Honestly though, $45 for a fade on the sides is too expensive (for college students like myself, maybe not older adults) and there are a lot of barber shops in D.C that give good fades for half that price. However, a lot of the DMV barbers are unprofessional, untimely, intimidating, and are not about getting their customers comfortable and relaxed. I chose this place knowing the price and had a great experience that made me content about what I paid and tipped. These ratings are based on overall performance and delivery and these gentlemen upheld a 5 star performance. read more

Dexter was great. He took his time to see what I was looking for my new look. As he was cutting I could tell the confidence he had in his work, which made me feel even more comfortable. It's been a few day's since I got my hair done and from the products to the quality of his work my cut still looks good. Thank you Dexter read more

This is by far the best Beard and Mustache Trim experience I have ever had...Dexter is a true Artist; so knowledgeable, caring, and skilled...WOW is all I can say. I come out of that place looking fresh, clean and Sexy. I'm so glad my friend told me about this place :) read more

I've been trying out different barbers/salons in the DMV and this is by far one of the best around. Super friendly, very organized, laid back atmosphere, and haircuts/beard care on point!!! My visit with Dexter was great and I highly recommended him when making an appointment!! read more

I have been coming to Millennium Salon for almost 3 years, Sean has been my barber from the start. Sean is one of the best barbers I have ever had, professional, nice, and skilled! Highly recommend checking him out! read more

I'm deeply loyal when it comes to my barber -- when I find a good one, I stick with 'em for a very long time -- which is why I hesitated when a relative recommended I schedule an appointment with Dexter. But after just one visit, I quickly changed salons and have been a client at Millennium for more than a year. Making the switch was an easy because this salon offers something I had never experienced anywhere else: professionalism, superior customer service, and a first-class establishment. At Millennium they don't just cut hair; they offer a wide variety of grooming services and believe in educating clients on industry best practices. They also believe going the extra mile to exceed client expectations and make them feel like VIPs. That's a business model that cannot be easily replicated, and for those who value this type of service, you will not be disappointed if you come here. read more

I've been going to this salon for years. The salon is located in a house that's nicely decked out like a spa. Don't let the fact that it's in a house throw you off. It has a natural vibe to the place. The music is cool. I get my hair cut by Sean. He has been cutting my hair for over 10 years! He's as good as it gets. I always come out looking clean! My lady always compliments me when I leave from this barbershop. read more

My family and I have been coming here for years even before they moved to this location. They provide great services with added entertainment. We love you, family, and we will continue to come here, even when we have to drive over 30 miles to make it to our appointment. Continuous success. read more

Expensive but worth it. Great vibes. Very respectful. These guys are wizards with the clippers

This was my first time and I'm definitely satisfied! My barber was excellent job and was knowledgeable! The host offers refreshments and snacks and everyone maintains a professional demeanor. A bit on the expensive side however I get a head and beard wash, conditioner and hot towels galore. Definitely a return visit but only on a pay day. read more

Very pleased with how they treat each customer. Very profesional, both the barbers and the shop. Everyone in there was treated great and loved there cuts. Now as for me I really wasn't satisfied with my cut. I asked for a Medium skin fade with a 1 on top. Don't think that was to much to ask for, I mean even if you google the images of this cut it's simple. It's a military style cut given that I'm in the army. I didn't end up with a medium skin fade it was more of a "taper" around my ears and the lower part of the back of my head. And I don't think I got a 1 on the top. It looks more of a 2. I know every region of the US has different names for haircuts. I'm not much of a complainer so I didn't say anything. Got home and realized that I really didn't like my cut. read more

LADIES!!!!!! Don't sleep on this place! So, I got my natural hair cut into a short style back in Oct 2015 at a natural hair beauty salon in Bmore and paid $80+. I wasn't really thrilled about the results or the experience. My boyfriend has been getting his hair cut by Sean at the Millennium Salon for a long time, and suggested I go to his barber (on Jan 18, 2016) to clean/shape up my short natural hair. Sean hooked me up!!!!!! My hair looked so beautiful & neat. I explained to Sean what my future hairstyle goal was and he listened. Most importantly, he walked me thru the shaping process, how to achieve/train the look, and explained how it will grow into the style I desired down the line. Honestly, after my visit with Sean, I realized I should have gone to him for my initial haircut. He was much more thorough than the beautician in bmore that initially cut my hair. Ladies, if you're natural and thinking about that big chop or a just want a different tapered (but FEMININE) look, check out Sean at the Millennium Salon. read more

I normally pay $20 for haircuts in the DC/MD area. I have two sons in college and they require a haircut once a month. My younger son has been growing his hair out for more than a year and is very proud of his crown. He always complains he's unable to get a "sharp" cut except when he's in school in the ATL. I heard about the Millennium experience and went on their Website, read reviews and saw pics of nice cuts. I decided to treat my son to Millennium before he went back to college in two days. This was a $42 cut - ouch but it was my son and a onetime treat. I scheduled and prepaid for the cut last Friday. As we arrived at the salon, my son said, "dad, I have a bad feeling about this." I assured him it should be OK. The barber Aeryk greeted my son and asked him how he wanted his hair cut. My son being skeptical said, just fade the sides and slightly trim his hair. The barber used scissors and quickly chopped my son's hair. He ended up with one of the worse haircuts I have ever seen. Afterwards my son was speechless, saying dad, "look at this, it's horrid" I had been seated in the wait area and when I looked up, I too was in disbelieve. I asked the barber what happened? Not only was it a "messed up" cut but it looked half done. Aeryk said, "I am sorry," looked strange and said, "maybe he," suggesting to the barber next to him, "could fix it." I am like, WHAT? Aeryk shrugged and left the room. The other barber said, "I can try and fix it but it would take a while because I have other appointments back to back." I asked for a refund, voiced my displeasure as my son stood there stunned. I wish I could rate Millennium a minus star for this entire experience and for employing a barber as an experienced (high-fee) professional who screwed up my son's hair (and with no remorse - so it seemed). I would have appreciated if Aeryk said I can't do the style your wants. We would have said thanks for being honest and gone to his regular barber at Afrikutz. I learned a good lesson, just because you pay more doesn't mean you'll get better quality. After this ordeal, my son was extremely upset and wanted to get the rest of his hair cut off because he felt it was ruined and couldn't be fixed. The barber next to Aeryk pleaded to let him fix it. Since my son wanted it all cut off at this point, I convinced him to let the other barber try it. We scheduled to meet Sean at his home the following day. Sean did what he could to fix which was 100 times better than when we left Millennium. My son was still very disappointed but decided to head back to school with a cap on his head on a 6 a.m. Sunday morning flight. Please be aware that you don't always get what you pay for. Please be cautious if you decide to visit this barbershop/salon. There are so many other places that can perform far better that what we experienced and observed. I wish I knew how to include pictures on this review for a better picture of our experience. read more

I get my hair cut and colored by Dexter. You would be hard pressed to find a place that provides more impeccable service. My experiences have been nothing but top notch from the cucumber water to having my feet propped up with pillows while having my hair conditioned. I have lost count of how many strangers have stopped me on the street to compliment me on my hair. All of this great service at a reasonable price. read more

When I did a search on Yelp! for Silver Spring barbers, I wanted to find an upscale barber that could do more than just give a quick cut. Millennium came up in the search and I noticed all their reviews were filtered by Yelp. All of the reviews were 5 stars, which made me very skeptical. So, I looked at the Millennium website, which seemed to support the five star reviews on Yelp. So I figured I would give it a try for myself. I called, made an appointment and made my way down to the shop. The shop/salon is in a house, which made me even more skeptical. Like "Is this being run out of someone's home?" When I knocked and the door opened, I was surprised to see the inside was very well designed, more like a salon/spa, very different from the normal black barber shop environment. Todd was the barber I made my appointment with and the first thing he did was wash my hair. That's the first time I had a barber wash my hair as a part of a regular haircut. I thought this was a nice touch. Then as Todd cut my hair, I was able to take in more of the details in the salon which made it a unique experience. I like to think of myself as simple and not wanting a lot of fuss made over me - most black guys don't. We just need a simple cut and fade and we're on our way. But in this case, it felt good to have attention paid to details and to feel like I was not just "the next head". My haircut was really good, got a few compliments during the week after. And I liked that my barber talked a little about hair care and just making sure I drank enough water each day to keep my hair and skin hydrated. I think Millennium deserves all of the five stars given and think the ratings represent the level of service this barber salon delivers. I only gave them a four because I wanted to mix up the ratings a bit, so at some point maybe Yelp will unfilter the other other reviews. If you want an upscale barber experience and you are a black male, I recommend you check out Millennium. This is the best barber salon in the DC-metro area - in my opinion. read more

My former barber of 11 years moved away and for 6 months I STRUGGLED to get the high-quality haircut that i had been used to getting. Millennium was the 3rd new barbershop that I tried and the struggle is OVER. The entire staff is absolutely fantastic and barber Aeryk exceeded my expectations. I can't describe how happy I am to have found my new amazing barbershop and I wholeheartedly recommend them. read more

Great experience. Due to my current work hours I was unable to make it to the salon before they closed. I called towards the end of the day on ( 4-19-16) to schedule an appointment for another time and Dexter the owner answered. I explained my situation and he asked " Can you come today?" I was happily surprised and said I'll be there after I get off at 7pm. Upon arrival one of his staff members greeted me and followed shortly thereafter by Dexter and the positive experience was on from there. Too much to type in reference to the experience but wanted to say thank you Dexter for staying late, for being experienced and knowledgeable about overall hair grooming and of course the cut. Thank you read more

For the first time EVER, I chopped ALL of my natural hair off. Dexter took his time and did a cut that was specific to my wants, hair type and shape of my head! I would totally trust him to "groom" my hair anyway he pleases! read more

I've been a customer of Millennium Barber Salon since 2002. Dexter Fields runs a first class operation. I'm always satisfied with my haircut and the professional service I receive. I have a son with special needs that also gets his haircut by Dexter. My son is totally at ease in the hands of this master barber. This is no small feat. The staff at Millennium is prompt, professional and courteous. read more

This is a very well put together classy establishment that offers the welcoming atmosphere, service, and cut expected of an upscale barber at a very competitive price. I wish more businesses had as much passion for their craft as these guys do. Thanks for the great cut and conversation gents. read more

I just moved to the DMV area last year and have not trust anyone (not ONE soul) here to cut my hair. Only my stylist from my home state. A few colleagues of mine I saw in DMV had stellar hair cuts and I learned that Dexter cut their hair. I nervously made an appointment the first time and backed out. Made another appointment and went for it. From the time I arrived the customer services and the environment I was already impressed with. Bottled water, on time to call me in. A lady was walking out as I entered and her hair too was popping. I sat for my appointment nervous thinking "Will this man jack my hair"?? ...Needless to continue..I am on this site making my next "Queen Cut" appointment as a birthday to myself. Dexter is the guy to go to! That man CAN cut, has amazing customer services and I left there and my friends were asking me Did you get your hair cut? Its look amazing...I replied "Yep I finally found my barber here!".. You will not be disappointed. You are worth the service I promise you will get! read more

Last week I walked into this place looking to have a great experience, and I was not disappointed at all! I was greeted warmly and made to feel like family and this was my first time there. I was offered beverages and snacks, and even offered a second time to make sure I hadn't changed my mind. My appointment was with Aeryk who exceeded my expectations. He handled me like the professional he is. I loved the finished results of my shape up/ shave/ eyebrow clean up/ hot steam towel facial... I can't wait to sit back in his chair! a 6th star for the AMAZING standard of customer service that everyone here has. This is where you should spend your money! read more

Best experience I've ever had in a barbers chair. They're right about the experience lasting long after the cut!

Wow! Is the word that sums this professional salon up. Great positive experience, professional concierge (Kevin) as well as the barbers, healthy refreshments, tasteful music and get this . . . . Time is important! Many of us are on a tight schedule and I have to say, Dexter has always taken me on TIME! I've never waited. It's now been 8 months since I've transitioned from locs to a short style . . I love the Millennium Salon and the positivity. Check it out! read more

The staff at Milliennium Barber Salon are always very professional and they all do exceptional work. The environment is warm and inviting, and makes you feel quite relaxed--especially after a long day. From the fresh fruit-infused water and light refreshments, to the hip and contemporary decor, this is the place to go for superior salon services. A special shout-out to Todd, "The Browmaster" who always does a fabulous job on my eyebrows! Kudos to the entire team at the Millennium Barber Salon! read more

What a pleasant experience. I've known Dexter for a number of years as an outstanding floral designer and business man and expected nothing less when I visited his salon. From Kevin the concierge, the complimentary refreshments, and pleasant ambiance to my experience with Dexter was more than I could have wished for. After more than 35 years of wearing my hair permed I decided to return to my natural roots. Once I decided the style I wanted I knew that Dexter was the man/barber/stylist for me. I will return. read more

My experience at Millennium Salon has been one of a kind. The service, cleanliness, and ambiance speak for itself as you are treated as a valued customer. My barber, Aeryk Shields listens and caters to my style which is not an easy cut. Aeryk is the most professional barber I have ever met through my four decades of getting a hair-cut. He is very detailed and strives to mastery through questioning to ensure his delivery is on point. Aeryk comes highly recommended and will give you the cut of your dreams. My overall experience at Millennium from the mints available to the cologne, shoe shine, and great conversations from all barbers make my experience a 5 star plus! A must visit! and reserve with Aeryk....You will not be disappointed!!! read more

Ladies, Ladies and Ladies!! If you are looking for someone to take your natural hair to the next level, this is the place you need to be! I have been a long time natural so I have had my fair share of bad experiences with barbers/stylists not executing the look, style and feel I want for my ever changing hairstyles but not here at Millennium Salon and definitely not with Dexter. The place is the whole package! Everything from ambiance To cleanliness To modern eccentric decor To complimentary snacks and beverages To online booking and a great welcome video on their website To the friendly energy as soon as you walk in the door To the neo soul playlist that will have you jammin the whole time you are there and finally To seeing brothers dressed to impress all to service your hair needs!! I LOVE IT! I found my place because there is no need to look elsewhere. I wish I was getting paid to say all these wonderful things but I am not. I just give credit where credit it due!! My satisfaction is worth the drive from Alexandria and the cost of their services to walk out their establishment and know I'm hitting the street looking flawless! read more
