This place was recommended by a friend. Drove 20 minutes with my child to try them. According to their page, they open at 9 am and close at 2 pm on Saturdays. We got there at 9:50 ish. There were about less than 10 people inside, that's including their staff. As soon as we entered , this lady said they are all booked up for the day. I thought no need to reserve, walk ins welcome?! You mean to say it'll take them 4 hours till closing at 2 pm to cut those peoples hair??! Do you think we will come back and try them again? Absolutely not. read more

Nic and her team are the best. They make you feel at home when you arrive and always go out of their way to make you feel appreciated. They do great work cutting hair and styling it to help you get the best version of yourself. This is a top notch business with positive vibes and one worth giving a try if you are unsure of your current barbershop. read more

So I made two more appointments for my other boys lol We will be going back and back I can say I found my kids haircut place and with tip $10 Next time I'll post pictures :) read more

Best barbershop around for men's, kid's, and women's hair!! Nic and the other workers are consistently friendly, fast, personable, and great at giving haircuts just like you want them! Although the shop is a bit out of our way, we go here for our entire family (even our out-of-state mother loves to go here) since the price and friendliness can't be beat! You can even buy drinks and small snacks to eat while you are waiting. It gets very busy on weekends, so call ahead to make a reservation. read more

Great friendly neighborhood barbershop without a trace if weird Seattle politics. However, the ridiculously low price has made it impossible to book a haircut and they seem to have problems keeping barbers on staff. $12 was the price of a haircut in the 90s, I suspect they've made themselves a target for cheapskates who don't believe in tipping. This is the first time I have ever left a review saying a place was too cheap, but this is a great barbershop and I would like them to stay in business and not have to book haircuts a month out. read more

Good luck finding another reasonably priced haircut Great staff flexible times available. Best value in the area. U love this place

Our new go to haircut place! I was shocked at the prices. Great quality cut for such an affordable price. Easy to make an appointment and friendly service. read more

This is a simple female owned business, doing a great job, in a great community. Nic is a supportive, loving, and talented barber. Knows and gives back to her community, and treats everyone EVERYONE with respect. There is one particular older employee who has had her fair share of medical challenges, and smells like a smoker, that unfortunately impact her acceptance as a barber to others. However, I simply ask for or wait for someone else as there are usually upto 4 chairs going on a weekend. Haircuts are done to order, and everything is $8. I can't recommend this place enough. You can't find a better mix of value and style these days! read more

Good haircut, reasonable prices, nice people. Overall it was a positive experience; however, I will likely be avoiding this barbershop in the future because it's not very gender inclusive which makes me uncomfortable as a non-binary, trans-masculine person. For starters, the sign on the window says that everything is 8$, but then the sign inside the shop has prices listed as Men's 8$ senior 12$ regular Women's 12$ senior 14$ regular It doesn't make sense to me why women are charged more just for being women. What if they have short hair? I exclusively go to barbershops, not salons, for short hair haircuts (and specifically so I can get short hair haircuts that aren't "pixies," but rather traditionally "male" hairstyles) and it doesn't make sense for me to be charged 14$ instead of 12$ when I have the same starting haircut a cis man might walk in having. I would really encourage Nic's Barbershop to start labeling prices in accordance with hair length, rather than gender (i.e. the "men's" haircut could be changed to haircuts for people who have hair shorter than their jaw or something like that). It's not just exclusionary but it's also a somewhat misleading marketing strategy when the appeal of coming here is the 8$ pricing. It's not the biggest deal, but I also got addressed as ma'am or otherwise misgendered multiple times by staff, and I think customer service would be improved if they made an effort to not make assumptions about people's gender identities. Again, overall the people working were very kind, and it was a good haircut, I just think this is an important thing to be thinking about. read more

Although I moved to Ballard I still drive up to Mukilteo to get the best $15 haircut for $8! You can choose which Barber you prefer but I've had my haircut by everyone of them and they've never let me down. Nic's Rocks! read more

"Nic's barbershop is close to my home and it is probably the unbelievably price barbershop in Seattle. 7 years ago The first time I went there, I knew it was the best when Nic cut my hair. I highly recommend it." read more

I did come to Nic's a couple of times before while visiting my parents and it was usually a good experience with the barbers and all. However, today , I had a rude experience with the barber, Connie, as me and my wife came to the barbershop for a haircut. The way she proceed to cutting my hair was that she was expecting me to know what I already wanted and that I have known how do things go at the barber. I can see that she was irritated and looked at me like I was a dumb person. The problem was that I was cutting my hair for my brother in laws wedding, and I wanted it to look nice. I am not a hair person and tried to be very sensitive to how things are run. I had told her that I was from out of town visiting and tried to make small conversation to break the ice. However, her replies were usually very short and curt as if she was ready to be done with me. By the time she has finished my hair, I had my wife check my hair out to get the ok. (Happy wife happy life) Connie looked irritated when we asked to make adjustments to the hair. From what I can see in other posts, she might be the same person who other customers left a bad review about. I would recommend the owner to train her in customer service skills. Customers would usually ask the owner to fire the employee, but I will give Connie the benefit of doubt to improve herself. But she would need to held accountable for her actions as she is a representative of the business. read more

Perfect small town barbershop. Great service even better prices. They listen and deliver. They work hard to make you feel like you matter.

My son has been going to Nic's for about 5 years and always walks out of the barbershop looking sharp and clean cut.

I love Nics! It was a little difficult to get in before they accepted appointments but now it's great. Friendly staff, great price and I get an awesome haircut every time. Happy to support this local business. read more

First time here and I love it they are very very friendly and the haircut are very good better than those $16 places me and my grandson got a haircut here and we look good will recommend this place and this is our hair cut place from now on thank you Nic,s read more

It had been a while since I was in Mukilteo looking for a haircut. Driving by the Arco I saw the sign and was like, hey that place was pretty cool last time I was there, think I'll swing on in. The business has got a bigger footprint and there are even adult beverages to be had! Cheri cut my hair and it turned out awesome. Great cut, sports on TV, beers in the fridge and the best cut for you buck anywhere! Looking forward to my next visit. Nic's, the hidden gem of Mukilteo. Cheers. read more

Sad face for sure. I've been coming here for years to get my hair and beard cut. Today I was told they do not do facial hair any longer. I am so disappointed by this. It is so hard to find someone good at what they do and now, I don't have any clear choices. I really love this place but since they no longer cater to all needs, it is what it is. Sad and now someone else will get my business. Someone who costs more and probably nowhere near as skilled as Erich, but no real option at Nic's now. read more

I was fortunate enough to walk in when it wasn't busy and get my haircut by Nic, what a wonderful woman. I told her about how my wife and I had just had a baby shower for our first child and that we were visiting from out of town. She congratulated me and immeaditely began giving me advice she said she was happy someone gave her once upon a time. The haircut only lasted 15 min but we chatted the whole time. When I went to pay she insisted that I save the money for my son and wouldn't take anything. This interaction has restored my faith in humanity, please support this barbershop. read more

terrible place they fucked my shit up and the price makes sense why the haircuts suck

I have lived in the Mukilteo area for several years and never saw a sign for 8$ haircuts until one day. I saw the sign for Nic's 8$ hair cuts so I decided to try it. Best decision I had made in a long time. Found the shop and upon entering there was Nic (the owner) and Tony ( only three chairs at the time). Nic told me it would be just a few minutes and to have a seat. As she finished up with her customer we began to chit chat and I found her to be warm, friendly and very knowledgeable. Tony was also interjecting comments and I found his humor to be very enjoyable and funny. A personality like mine. The haircut was great. Exactly what I asked for and I have been a customer every since. A lot of times Nic is busy. I have tried the other barbers and find that they have the same personality as Nic. Warm, friendly, humorous and confident in what they are doing. I always interact with Tony because we have the same course sense of humor. I think one review I read said one of them was disrespectful in an answer. I think it was just Tony being Tony with no offence meant. I love Nic's and I hope they reopen soon so I can see that they are all OK and made it through this pandemic safely. read more

Great barber shop with affordable pricing and amazing staff. Nic does a great job and is very professional with quick buzz cuts. Only issue before we're the long waits, but with covid they now set up appointments which makes getting in and out very quick and easy. read more

My husband has gone to Nic's for a while now, and normally, he has a great experience. Today, he went in and was notified by the owner that there was a hour to hour and a half wait. He asked if there was a better time to come in (meaning different day). One of the barbers commented "Yeah, look at your watch and figure our when an hour and a half is from now and come back." My husband thanked them and walked out. They will not be receiving our business anymore with employees who talk to their customers like that. It was extremely rude!! Seeing as their business depends on customer service, they need to start employing people who care about their customers and treat them with kindness and understanding! read more

Been going for close to year now. Fast and cheap if you don't need any styling. Definitely a volume place .

Avoid this place. They do not have actual "barbering" skills. I had been growing my hair out for months setting up the foundation for a bun. I need help for someone to line up both lines on the sides of my head, and this lady would not listen and kept talking over me. Very loud and belligerent. The WORST hairstylist/barber I have ever been to. I wish I could remember her name. She was an older woman, which concerned me cause was afraid she would not understand what I wanted, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt. The worst part I told her not to cut the back of my hair, which I had been growing for almost a year, she she literally took her clipper out and cut if off first thing. I was like "did you just cut the back of my hair?" She then says that she hadn't heard me say that, when that was the first thing I told her. I am SO BUMMED I went here and they messed up my hair that I have been working so long to grow out. NEVER again. What a horrible place. PS. this is not an actual barber shop. This is a place for retirees and old people to get haircuts. AVOID. read more

I wish I could give a Negative star review. Walked in with 45 minutes to spare and we were turned away at the door. They must've had a slower day and closed up shop early. Everyone was sitting down doing nothing, and they could've easily fixed up my two little boys hairs and I could've been on my way and they could've had a new customer. read more

Girls - don't be afraid to come here - they do great women's' cuts for $8 as well! I came in on the raving recommendation of a friend and was not disappointed. Parking/location - A couple blocks off 525/Mukilteo Speedway, it's tucked into a quaint town center feel with ample parking along the streets. Ambiance - Tons of sport paraphernalia and flat screen showing something sports related. In the front of the shop they've got a cafe type thing going and in the back half is the barbershop, the back wall being a garage door that rolls up. They've got about 4 or 5 chairs. Service - Very friendly, casual - FAST - about 15-20 minutes for trim and tidying up layers. It's as good as some $40 haircuts I've gotten elsewhere. I'm pretty sure they don't take reservations - just walk-in, but they are super fast, so I don't think you'd be waiting more than a few minutes. Recommendation - This is my new regular spot. I'm hooked. read more

Best haircut I've ever had (really). Nic is, moreover, one of the kindest, coolest, most genuine and caring persons I have ever met. She cares about and works on behalf of our community, especially children. We are so lucky to have her and her talented and wonderful staff in Harbour Pointe/Mukilteo. Nic's Barbershop rocks. read more

Thank you Nic's Barbershop in Mukilteo returning me to civilized after months closed for Covid19. They are taking reservations 425-512-8870 which is new, and walk ins may have a wait depending on families ahead. Lollipops for the little ones. Home of the $8 haircut use to be always packed with dad and boys. Little easier now school is out. Nic, Eric & Connie give great cuts. Garage door may be open depending on weather. If no one up front, go sign in. Waiting area in front use to be coffee shop, so comfortable to hang out or watch tvs. read more

What a great chance to meet the ​community in one spot. Nic's barbershop is a place where you'll have a chance to see your kid's teachers to city officials, the conversation there is always pleasant and diverse. Now as far as the haircuts, my boys get "cat calls" by the girls. all the barbers have a flair for style yesteryears and to date. Just a great hangout! read more

Nic's Barbershop ( short for the owner's last name and how she introduced herself) is a family friendly business. I saw adults and children, men and women waiting for service. Nic seemed to know a lot of her clientele as they walked in. It feels like the "neighborhood barbershop" minus the egos. The barbershop is located in a mixed residential /business neighborhood area of Mukilteo. David cut my 5 y o's hair and he was very patient and detailed. I was impressed w/the quality of the cut and the customer service my son and I received. read more

I worked with Cheri AKA Nic. Had a great experience. Have been back to this barbershop at least 20 times. I will continue coming here. Friendly, clean and they give excellent hair cuts. The price is good too. read more

Great haircut, supper friendly barbers, and affordable price. This's going to be my only stop for haircut from now on. read more

Guy greeting me was very friendly, and I heard good things...but i went there and sat with the guy in the back left corner and he acted like it was a freakin race to cut my hair cause it was close to closing time...i don't even remember his name because im trying to forget the haircut...he walked up to the front of the store angrily to change the sign to closed before my cut...then proceeded to give a haircut as if he was racing the other barbers in the room cause he just wanted to leave..he butchered my head...8 bucks for a reason...Dirt. read more

When you're a working class American who pulls up at 17:59 from a long day to be greeted by, can I help you, we're closed sorry. I'm gonna have to give you the hard pass. Why do you close so early when the normal person does not get off work until 17:00? Also, is this place legitimately ran out of a condo garage...? Thanks but no thanks. read more

A month ago I received a great-quality haircut here, with minimal wait time and plenty of beverages for purchase for me while I wait.

Awful. I asked for a number three on the side, straight up, and a similar amount off the top. I stated specifically I didn't want the top rounded over. Nic, the barber, states 'three high' and then proceeded to give me exactly the haircut I didn't want. I have had my haircut many times, and have told other barbers the exact same thing and gotten what I wanted. I don't understand barber lingo, nor should I need to. Nic seemed more focused on a quick haircut rather than taking them time to understand what her client actually wanted. When I asked how next time to ask for the haircut I want, Nic's response felt like she thought it was my fault. Won't be back. read more

Been going to Nic's since inception. I've seen her place grow from a small 2 chair shop to triple the size with 5 chairs. Nic is great and always very friendly and cheerful. Her crew of barbers are always friendly and great as well! I always get a warm welcome and happy to go there! $8 a haircut for men, women or kids. I highly recommend for anyone who needs a good haircut at a great price in friendly environment! read more

DO NOT TAKE SMALL KIDS HERE!!! I came in with my 2.5 year old son and specifically asked if they do toddler cuts and was told yes- however the lady who tried to cut my sons hair was absolutely horrendous with him. She ordered us to a chair (no greeting) and told me to remove his coat and put him in the chair. My son is shy so he was reaching out for me when she looked at me and told me he was going to need to stop. Maybe if this woman treated my son like a PERSON and introduced herself to him he might not have been so scared. She was barking orders at both of us. I looked at her and asked if she was not okay cutting kids hair because this is a pretty NORMAL response for a child when a stranger touches them without any sort of introduction. I grabbed my son out of the chair and left. I did contact the owner and she said normally she does kids haircuts, however, the staff must not be aware of this as we were told to goto this lady. I chose this place bc it is close to us and I grew up in Mukilteo and know a lot of people who have come here (and some even took their kids)- however, we won't be back nor will I recommend to anyone. read more

This shop is very welcoming, the haircuts are great and the prices even better, not to mention that there are amenities like beer and popcorn what a good business concept. read more
