    Haircut

    If you've been on the lookout for a barber who can deliver top-notch cuts, and also handle any type of hair with expertise, get in touch with Nick, right here in Hawaii! Nick is, without a doubt, one of the BEST barbers from the OC (Irvine) to the Islands (Honolulu). From fades to classic cuts, curly to straight hair, there's no style he can't master. Before he moved to Hawaii, he was my sons' and husband's barber in California. We just happened to be vacationing in Hawaii this week and had to get in touch with him for haircuts. He's incredibly detail-oriented, making sure every strand is perfectly in place, and he takes the time to understand exactly what you want. His knowledge of different hair textures and styles is impressive - whether you have thick, coarse hair or finer, straight hair, Nick's got you covered. But it's not just about the cut. Nick is professional, punctual, and creates a comfortable, relaxed environment that makes every appointment a pleasure. I've taken my sons and husband to barbers all over, but Nick truly stands out for his consistency, skill, and passion for what he does. If you're in Hawaii and looking for a barber who can give you a great cut, look no further than Nick. I couldn't recommend him more-- you won't be disappointed.

    Brother has been going to Brendan P. for a fresh cut for a while now and he always speaks on his consistency & creativity that comes through in his work. Appreciate you and your willingness to express your craft while also honoring what the client wants to go for. Style: Slick-back mullet with a skin taper.

    Owner haircut. Master craftsman

    Wow Johnny is definitely a master of his craft. This was hands down the best haircut my fiance has ever had. Wanted him to look sharp for our wedding and so glad we found this place. Clean and hip space, excellent cut, appreciated the complimentary water bottles. We will come back on our next trip for sure

    Johnny the owner

    Penthouse HNL was a breath of fresh air after trying multiple places on the island. Been coming out to these guys constantly for the past two years and they do phenomenal work. Due to my busy schedule I usually book with who ever is available and all their barbers are super skilled. Johnny the owner makes it it a cool atmosphere to be in and it's great to have these guys on island.

    Senior barber Steven did an amazing job on my sons hair & design. His birthday haircut is NICE !

    Great service, High quality work worth the price, super cool vibe. Highly recommend Steven- Senior barber. My son doesn't want to go anywhere else

    Sweet fade and line up on da side!!!

    First time Penthouse HNL visit. Will definitely be coming back again for Braddah Kevin (IG: @kevdabarb). I had a complicated request: burst fade, side-comb line, de-fluff my upper back of my head while keeping the Chuck Norris mullet alive and well! (Pics courtesy and credit to @kevdabarb on IG) . Also witnessed Johnny and the crew celebrate a birthday with one of their own (name escapes me but it was an awesome scene of Aloha) topped with a cupcake and birthday song! I parked across the street but it looks like they have those sweet parking cages that house your cars via an elevator and storage algorithm! By appointment only so I went to their website and was able to book Kevin within 3 hours. The website allows visitors to see who and what time availability for each barber is and will be...loved that option as I was in a pinch to find a stylist/barber/artist to satisfy my complicated requests. 10 out of 10

I showed him what I wanted and he started with the first red flag I ignored. He flat out said that cut wasn't for me he's not sure if he could do it. I said do your best? When he was done the gel and combing style looked great. I noticed immediately it wasn't anything like the picture and my hair was cut short not shaved as requested and asked him to please take more hair off. The other stylist or manager was busy in the back then left to the" bank " Red Flag 2. He showed me the top. I love the length and say it clear and loud. He then grabs the hair length and cuts. When I reacted with why?!?!? I just said it's perfect, he replied My bad I didn't hear you. We are the only people there. I digress. His next client showed up and he started to get anxious about my asking him for more work. At this point I'm calm and decided I'll be back since he was being difficult. I called the next day came in and in epic fashion he acted surprised and lectured me on telling blended if I'm not happy in the day of the appointment. I tried to no avail so his remark already was red flag 3. He corrected some of it but pretty much made it clear after all this time- he didn't think the cut I chose was "right for me " and he didn't not "feel comfortable "because my head isn't the same shape as the model. lol. Is he for real?!?! Telling people no because it's not what you like is unacceptable. And for 65 bucks inappropriate Here is the picture. I rarely give bad reviews please know I had no choice on this one. I'll come back but not with Micah.

His haircuts had gone up to around $60, and since I usually get a simple cut, he suggested I look for something more affordable. A friend recommended this place, and I've been coming here since.

The cuts aren't high-end or super detailed, but they do a good, clean job that gets the job done. For the value and consistency, it's hard to complain. Definitely a strong 4.5 stars.

And after two very successful trips to A's barbershop, we thought we'd give it a third try again and it just keeps getting better. Today my beard was trimmed by Kat, who is just incredible with a fantastic attitude, master skills, And an attention to detail that's getting rarer to find these days. Parking was a breeze in the back and I waited no longer than 10 minutes to get into a chair and have my beard serviced without an appointment. I'll be back for sure. And just glad to have found a permanent barbershop that does fantastic work for an incredible price. Look forward to moving back home soon and sitting in that chair more often. Mahalo again Kat and the A's barbershop team!
