I got my fade messed up really bad. This isn't acceptable and they wouldn't let me get a refund. It's like your hair got confused halfway through and decided to change direction. One side's trying to do a mid-fade, the other gave up entirely and went straight to skin. The back looks like they used a butter knife and some hope. It's patchy, uneven, and worst of all my mom can't even look at my haircut anymore. read more

terrible work barbers do what they want to do to you don't listen : poor advice felt like they don't care about the customer

Rockstar Barbershop - Barbers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This place is amazing. I got my cut by Ruel, a true pro and passionate barber. He's focused on making sure you get a rockstar haircut and his skills deliver, I have the cleanest cut I've had in years. I don't think you can go wrong here as all the other barbers in the shop were giving really good haircuts to others. This is the place to go if you want a great cut. read more

if there was a Grammy for haircuts, this place would win platinum. They fed me lunch, we had drinks, a little sumpin, wink wink nod nod, good times! read more

Best barbershop I've ever been to--from the staff to the interior, music, and even the clientele. Got an amazing haircut from Lorenzo which was top 3 (maybe even top 1) of my life! Will absolutely return and recommend him and Rockstar to anyone in need of a trim (or even a complete overhaul). 10/10! read more

As a person of color, switching to a new barber is always fraught with anxiety, so when my long time barber moved to Texas (dude, really?) I naturally asked him to recommend someone who could provide me the same level of quality and equally important consistency as he has for the past three years. He didn't hesitate to recommend Tee at Rockstar Barbershop. The Shop: The shop is about what you expect for a place called Rockstar Barbershop. A little flashy looking on the inside, some of the barbers like to dress up, but most importantly everyone is friendly and has a great sense of humor. You've got the chatter and jokes, but not to the point where it's distracting or annoying. The Barbers: I can only speak for Tee personally, but from what I can see everyone here does a great job. Tee is great, he runs mostly by appointment, and he's always on time, a rarity for most barbers. Great shop, great barbers, if you're looking for a spot on the Northside, you've found it! read more

Ruel did a great job. I should have taken a picture sooner. His graphics are good. Over priced but good. My boyfriend came and got his hair cut a few days later and said he didn't like it because of how unprofessional they are. But his hair cut look fantastic. read more

Rockstar Barbershop - Ruel did a great job. I should have posted a review sooner - Barbers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

These guys are awesome. Great environment, great people, well diverse, and love that they have options for ladies as well. My boy works here and I'm glad he is on a better street and better team now. You need a good cut from professionals that are chill then go here read more

Excellent service! 100% recommended, I got there at my appointment time and they were ready to take care of my hair.

I moved to the city a few months back and had tried out a hair salon in Logan Square but was put off by their long wait times even with an appointment and inattention to detail. I decided to find a barbershop for my short hair and gave this one a try. They were able to get me in on the same day. I can't remember the name of the girl who cut my hair but she was great. She noticed every small detail and kept me informed during the whole process. She was also very personable. I admit that I was nervous about trying a barbershop but everyone was friendly from the moment I walked in the door and didn't make me feel out of place. The ambiance was fun and energetic. I'll definitely be back. read more

Real nice guys here, great talent. I had Alex DaBarber who put a high bald fade with a hard part on balding head, and it looks great! I did however, feel a bit old. Yes I am old but I felt old in here. Shouldn't let that matter when getting a fade but when the guy next to you is getting some great stripes, cool designs, and great cuts that I would never consider, then yes, it does make you feel old haha. Go here and get a great cut, you won't regret it. I believe these guys know what they are doing. read more

I can honestly say it was the perfect haircut. The perfect level of courtesy and professionalism. I've never been happier with a cut. Thank you Ruel! I'll see you next week! Simply the best. THE best. And the reservations system online is simplicity defined. They also take walk-ins, but I'd use the reservation system for sure. read more

This is the place! The atmosphere is indeed rockin' and Alex and T are the most awesome barbers!! I enjoyed their attention and skill and look forward to my next visit!! read more

This is by far the best experience I've ever had at a barber shop. The professionalism is second to none! Terdariuse is an artist in the truest form. The treatments offered are of the highest standard. If I didn't live in Oklahoma City this would be my mainstay. read more

One of the best barbershops in chicago. Everybody is professional. Been coming to this barbershop since they opened. Jimmy always does a great job. read more

I just recently switched barbers. Let me tell you this place is amazing. I get cut every two weeks. You cannot go wrong in this place, they definitely do not rush, and every single person that works in rockstar is fantastic. I'm not kidding. You can walk in and anyone of them will give you an amazing cut. Definitely book an appt through style seat if you need to get cut in a crunch etc. Ruel keep up the good work brother. I'll See you soon. read more

New to Chicago, just moved from NYC so going through the entire process of finding a new barber that's quality is a pain. Came in because of the good yelp reviews and Alex (with the long) hair did more than take care of me. Had a few people in front of me and he let me know the timeline. Took his time on the cut and the beard. Great convo and even offered me something to drink. He's got a customer for life! Much recommended! read more

Went in here on a whim, and I'm glad I did! I recently moved here from California, and finding a new barber is usually a stressful experience. Well, I found my new barber, Guillermo, who is professional, funny, and most importantly, a world-class shear and clipper bearer. Thanks for the great cut, and I'll definitely be back! read more

Guillermo is perhaps the best barber I've ever worked with. As a New York City kid, my expectations for a good barber are pretty high. He's easily surpassed that expectation. From his skill to his demeanor, I strongly recommend him. The other staff are also super personable and incredibly talented. Do yourself the favor and treat yourself to phenomenal service, good conversation, and a great look. read more

Great barbers, good vibes. The best part about it is the fact that you can set appointments. Long are the days where you walk into a shop and wait for hourssss. Set your appointment, show up, set a great cut by some decorated, award winning barbers. Worth time price. read more

I just walked over and gave them a try. So glad I did! T hooked me up right. Glad to have a neighborhood spot that I can rely on now. Really nice guys, too. Solid. read more

BIG SHOUT OUT TO Alex Clase. This guy is one of, if not the best barber in Chicago. He has class, professionalism, Integrity and my God can he cut. It's people like Alex that give a great Rep to a business. Will definitely return to Rock Star BarberShop. read more

I was in Chicago on a trip, partially to plan my move there, and I needed my hair shaped up before I left for more traveling. Found these guys on Yelp, decided to walk in and see if they could fit me in. They did, and I think I've found my new barbershop for when I move. I typically do designs/graphics in my undercut, but chose not to this time. (Looking forward to that next time I'm back!) The guy who did my cut was amazing. Super detailed, really thorough, and he did exactly what I wanted. My cut was beyond reasonably priced, and the whole experience was great. I'm VERY serious about my hair. Taking a risk on this walk-in was the best hair decision I've made in a long time. *quick note: I often encounter barbershops who aren't fans of doing cuts on women, so I want to especially say that I felt totally comfortable and welcome. Even got a compliment on the cut/designs I had when I walked in. read more

Came to this barbershop as a walk-in and was able to get a seat after 10 minutes. Got an awesome beard trim, fade, and line-up by Frankie for $15. Excellent job. Would come again! read more

Went to check this place out and I was very impressed. Terdarius(they call him T) hooked me up. He lined and cleaned up my beard and my choice of cut was a slicked-back on top and fade on the bottom. I normally don't care about my beard, but now I can definitely see myself returning for my beard and a cut. Definitely recommend T. read more

Turned up for a 1145 appointment 20 minutes early. Chose it based on yelp score. Waited 45 minutes and the barber never showed up for the appointment despite comfirming via email. Ruined my day as i travelled out of my way based on your rep. Unprofessional. read more

First time here after moving back from NOLA. Jimmy hooked it up. Best haircut and shave I've ever had. He really took his time with the details. A true professional. I'd recommend him to everyone. I'll be back for sure. read more

I walked in today after a knee surgery and a couple weeks without a clean up. First, the place is chill and relaxed with a beer tap for their guests. T went out of his way to make sure I had a good chair for my brace-locked knee, moving other chairs around, and went to work. T is cool and crazy good; Hands down the best haircut/ buzz I've ever had, and his clean up of my beard was great. I was super surprised it was only $25. I'm looking forward to going back to T, and am so glad this place is in the neighborhood. read more

I've heard so many good things about Rockstar Barbershop, so I decided I'd give it a go. I got Ruel the barber and let me say this man is very talented and so professional. I highly recommend read more

My husband and I were on our way to dinner when we passed this place. He's been needing a haircut and from the outside, the Barber shop looked inviting so we walked in. We were greeted right away and they took my husband as a walk in. The wait was short and my husbands barber was very nice. While I was waiting, the music was great and upbeat. One of the barbers kids came in and it was nice to see them play around, gave it a very homey welcoming feeling. Usually my husbands haircuts are 15min, but it was about an hour? I wasn't upset, this was a legit Barber Shop and I expected great service which is what he received. The barber took his time and his haircut looked great! Very clean, edged, and the best fade on him I've seen in awhile. They offer other services for your beard and what not but we had to eat dinner and he doesn't really have a beard but I think the other services offered are great, men need some pampering too lol. Overall I loved the whole atmosphere and that my husband got the chance to go to a real barber shop. read more

I got a nice haircut even though my barber seemed like he was really high at the time. 30 bucks for just a simple haircut is too much to be called a barbershop, they are more like a salon. My haircut also took way longer than it needed to, again, maybe it was because he was stoned. read more

I was recommended Rockstar from a friend who absolutely loves them. Back story--I used to go to the Rockstar on 35th street on the south side and had a favorite barber there but that was years ago. I have always been a fan of the brand. Lying in bed at 10pm I decided to book a 1030 appointment for the following day, I did not have an option online to book the Barber my friend recommended. I instead got a barber by the name or Tredarius. I showed up promptly at 10:30am Tredarius otherwise known as Tee however was running behind. I appreciated the constant communication via text from him and was very understanding considering I made the appointment so late the night before. I hung out in the barbershop, and completely fell in love with the vibe the two barbers doing hair while I was waiting kept a friendly and welcoming environment and the music was a mix of Spanish and Hip Hop. It felt like home. When my barber finally made it he got straight to work, not only did he do an amazing job but he also discounted me and offered to pay for my parking due to his lateness. Definitely took the situation and made the best of it. I enjoyed the barbershop talk and closeness of the clients and stylists. I will definitely be coming back and look forward to getting to know my new barber better. read more

Clean barber shop, great barbers all around. Alex Clase is my barber , real professional , clean and one of the best barbers in Chicago hands down. Make sure to make an appointment you won't regret it!. read more

Took both sons in and both haircuts were wrong after showing photos. One child wanted graphics and it seems only 1 barber can do it well. Of course not the barber I had, who told me half way through haircut that he cannot do the graphics. I should've been told that before haircut was started. My other son had a stylist that was on her phone constantly and she cut his hair way too short. I gave 2 stars because if you get the right barber you are fine. We have been here before and there was no problem. read more

The location is good and the other barbers except the one I went to seemed to know what they were doing. Only reason getting a 2 star. Can tell the barber I used Alex was not experienced or good with clippers and the blade. Got a nice slice on my cheek to prove it. Still $35 and that was a discount off beard since he cut me really?! If I go back highly doubtful won't be to sit in his chair. read more
