Needed a trim and walked into the joint . There was no wait. Got a hair cut and produced my debit card. I was promptly advised that they only accept cashed. It's 2024. Cashew only? Really? I suddenly waited for a vaudeville character to start dancing across the floor. read more

I was just at the barber shop yesterday. unfortunately there was only one barber(barber on the left-haha) He has no character, very mono tone. I was waiting on a guy that was there before I did and he didn't seem happy as well. I wanted to walk out but it was too late since the guy having his haircut just got done when I decided to leave. This barber seems to hate his job....all he said to me for the next 3 minutes was "next" and "did you leave any gel in the tube?" I said my hair was flairing due to my hair getting too long. That was my last conversation with this barber other than when he was ready to collect his money. Don't go to this place and go someplace else. read more

Simmons Barber Shop - Finally a real barber. - Barbers Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

Found simmons barber shop back in the mid 70's & continued there until 2021. Romie & his brother j.l were just good down to earth people & their barber shop reminded me of floyd's barber shop on the andy griffith show, they loved to talk green wave, carolina & clemson football with a little bit of politics mixed in. Linda was a sweetheart while she was there & angel turned quite a few heads also. then there was brad & he was, well, just brad. not much on conversation & slept in his chair a lot!. J.L.. passed away about 5 years ago & saw on the news tonight, 1-29-23, that Romie passed away at 85. Wonder what will happen to the A"floyds" barber shop of summerville?. A lot of good memories in there. Their families were a corner stone of Summerville, sc. read more

I've been coming here for a year. Its a standard ol man barbershop. Pretty good spot to get cut up, but it can get busy on saturday... Don't get the guy on the left... read more

Simmons Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

This Barbershop came highly recommended for an infants first haircut, so we decided to take our son for his first. We arrived at 8:30 Saturday morning to an empty barbershop with the only barber there sitting in one of the chairs and we turned around and walked right back out at 8:31. I have never been to an establishment that treated a customer so rudely that I felt like we were inconveniencing him by being there, and I wasn't going to have someone like that scare my son for future hair cutting experiences. I strongly suggest NOT going on Saturday morning, I would hate for the barber to actually have to do his job. read more

Going here for years, never had one complaint about any haircut I received all are professional and skilled

Ive had some bad haircuts, but now I have had the worst 0/10 I didn't think was possible. I never write reviews, but I'm making an exception. Few years ago at another fancy shop, I was clearly the stylists first after graduating from Beauty School-she was shaking and cut her finger. I did research and figured I'd give Simmons Barber a try. I felt an attitude from the beginning when the older barber who called me to the chair on the left. When asked what I wanted, I told him to just make me look good and he was the professional so whatever he wanted-clippers, etc. This was the ABSOLUTE WORST haircuts I've ever had. It took him less than 3-4 minutes and he didn't say one thing during his 'uninterested and unprofessional process". I should have walked out and not paid, but I tipped him and figured I'd do something they're probably not accustomed too-behaving with class/dignity. In hindsight, it just felt like my presence interrupted them from their conversation that was either about Mexicans or the "good people" at the Charlottsville March-it just seemed like a weird vibe. I was dressed in jeans and T-shirt; completely generic attire but maybe didn't tip my hand by not wearing a bass fishing shirt, belt knife and no Trump sticker on my car-an unknown variable. If you like uninspired professionals, bowl cuts and ignorant babble by tea-party members with Ninth grade educations, then this is your place. Truth is you can stay home with clippers and a mirror and get a better haircut for free. Unfortunately, I just noticed other scathing reviews of this guy on the left chair. He must be the owner? If not, then why would management keep him around. read more

If you want a really good haircut you'll have to wait awhile for Angel. If you want a quick, crap haircut, you can always go to the guy on the left. He hates his job and hates cutting hair. The shop is very old and not very clean. The guy on the left is rude and sits around while hair is piled on the floor. His haircuts last about 2 minutes. It's amazing he has a job. He must own the place read more

I struggled to find anyone in this town that would cut hair. I don't have a lot of hair and its not complicated, but wow... I was getting really bad hair cuts and with the last one, I was charged $180 for a color and cut at one place for a completely ^#(%#* job. I was in tears and pissed. Mr. Muscle says.. "Go to Linda at Simmons". Then over the next two weeks as I struggled with this $180 POS haircut which fried my hair, I kept hearing people mentioned Miss Linda. I hotfoot it down there, completely not concerned that is an OG barber shop. LOVE HER. She cut my hair - finally - as I requested. Super short, super cute, super cheap. I highly recommend Linda.They do not take appointments. You go in and pull a number and wait for the operator that you want. Could be minutes, could be longer. I am a HUGE FAN. read more

Back to Brad. I was in there last week at about 8:30. There were two old guys waiting and Brad actually had someone in his chair. When Brad finished, he silently pointed at me, skipping the other two guys who were apparently waiting for 'Angel'. Again, great haircut but I have never patronized any business who continues to employ someone with such a fuck-you attitude. I tried to start things off with a friendly greeting, but the attitude was primed and ready. I tried to get into the 'barbershop chatter' saying I had been here for 4 years and the traffic only seemed to be getting worse. Brad spoke, saying "anyone who wants to leave can leave". If that was directed at me, this is turning surreal. read more

It is rare to find an establishment like this anymore. Takes me back...way back, to the days when my father would take me to town to get our haircut on Saturday mornings. One small piece of advice, steer clear of the chair on the extreme left. Something pretty strange going on there. read more

Brad is great. I go to him every time as he cuts my hair exactly as I ask. And I am in and out in 5-6 minutes, which you certainly can't beat. Everybody that works there seems excellent and very friendly. I'm the type that doesn't want to spend time getting my haircut either. So while everyone else is super friendly and chats with customers, I prefer Brad because it's to the point and gets things done quickly. read more

I've gotten my hair cut by Brad twice now and both times I've been happy with the cut and the price. He's very good at faded haircuts which is definitely a skill that not everyone has. Don't expect much conversation from him though. All business, but that's just fine with me. read more

The best hair cut in town. Must have Mr. Simmons cut your hair. They are very friendly and will talk to you as a friend. He asks about your family and has real concern for you. read more

This barber shop is one of the oldest of its kind in the Summerville area. Brad (the barber on the far left) has been my barber for the last 17 years. I would never go elsewhere as many other places have a high price for a nice, simple hair cut. This is the perfect location for a classic, southern-style haircut in the heart of Downtown Summerville. read more

We always have a great experience here. I take my son , 3, for haircuts every other month and switch up people based on who's available first. The two we've had thus far have been superb. They make him feel comfortable and explain what's going on so he's not scared. I highly recommend! read more

This is the quintessential barber shop right on Main. 4 or 5 chairs in a line and each is "owned" by a barber. I had my best cut ever from the lady to the far right. These are great people and a great place. I only wish I had a son I could take there for his cut. Going back tomorrow another $12 gone. ;-) read more

Horrible service, they couldn't cut hair evenly and missed around the ears. When I went back to have my hair fixed they told me that they couldn't see the problem even when I described, in detail, what I wanted fixed. I ended up going to another barber to fix my hair. In the end, waste of time and money. read more

Yep rating is just for the guy on the left like the previous review. Not good at all!!! And creepie to... Did not listen to anything I said as directions on how to cut my hair=I have to wear a ballcap for the next few weeks. Avoid him at all costs!!!!! Please don't use him!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The worst haircut I've ever had. The fat guy that cut my hair has the personality of a turtle. I asked for him to clean me up and he scalped me! read more

I went in and asked to shave the sides to the temple, fade in to the top, and cut a little bit off the top... instead I got half the top cut off and a little bit trimmed on the sides. That's the only haircut that you'll receive there. Don't ask for your personal preferences.... read more

I would love to give 5 stars but the lady to the far right is very negative on her coworkers. This is an old fashioned barber shop with a great deal of knowledge of hair and Summerville but I am not a fan of someone whispering in my ear other than my wife. read more

I have been looking for a barber since relocating in July. Older barber had no line which worried me but I didn't want to wait. Thankfully, this guy knows how to cut hair and knew exactly what I was looking for. His knowledge of football and my home state of WV was a plus. Very happy with this experience and felt very welcome as a recent transplant. Thanks, Romy. read more

It is a great place to get a hair cut. They are quick and extremely well priced. $12 + tip.

Most unfriendly service I have ever had. They will not see one more of my hard earned dollars. In the end the hair cut was average at best. To many options to ever go back. read more

I just took my 7 month old for his first haircut. The staff was so friendly. Angela was so patient and kind. They even wrote out a certificate for his first cut and saved the hair for me. read more
