I've been going to Single Barrel a few years. The service is consistently a good quality cut and the guys have listened to my requests. They make sure I'm ok with the cut before I leave. read more

Harley is a great barber, cool place, it is refreshing to find a true barber shop with some great music.

Had an appointment set up for the 1st and even received confirmation. Upon arrival, was told that person was not even scheduled that day. Very nonchalant, never an apology or any communication. Set up a second appointment, showed up a FEW minutes late and was told that Joey had "already bounced." It was the first time being late due to having to air up a tire and being completely stood up the appointment prior. You can get a good haircut depending on who you choose here, but the customer service is lacking. Also be careful using the ATM machine here, I was charged more than one fee when I used it! read more

Single Barrel Barbershop - Barbers Near Me - Homewood, Alabama

This was a pleasant surprise to find out about. I had recently been looking for a new barber / beard stylist. The generic hair cut shops were just not cutting it, and wouldn't listen to my requests, often leading to some haircuts I was definitely not pleased with. Enter... Single Barrel Barbershop! The staff here were all very friendly. There was some controlled chaos going on, as there isn't a big waiting area and if there is a line, the children in the area can be quite loud. My barber did a great job and we chatted throughout, helping pass the time. You do have to pay in cash, but there is an ATM located inside. Definitely make a reservation, but it has to be done via phone call. They don't have them available online yet. Hopefully they'll get that figured out soon. read more

Single Barrel Barbershop - Barbers Near Me - Homewood, Alabama

I had an appointment with Mark Shadix it is the worse haircut I have ever had in my life. I've been getting the same haircut for about 6 years and it's never been this bad. I literally showed a photo of what I wanted and he said it was no problem. He went completely off script. Didn't even bother to do the line up around my head. The corners of my head look nothing like the photo. Very little effort was put into my haircut. Wasn't even able to give me a proper skin fade. Maybe I'm just used to a higher standard. I can't speak for the other barbers but DO NOT use Mark. read more

Single Barrel Barbershop - The haircut I wanted vs the haircut I got. - Barbers Near Me - Homewood, Alabama

Great barber. Friendly, pretty quick and professional. Rob did a great job and was personable. **A few things to note: it's a cash-only (or check) shop. This isn't easily identifiable on the website nor does the information appear on the emailed appointment confirmation (which you should do as they get busy). Other shops I've been to haven't done this. This really should be more prominent in 2020 and esp. during COVID where so many places are card-only. They do offer an ATM, but there's a $2.50 fee and my branch charged me another $6 because apparently it did an inquiry and then the withdraw. Turned out to be noticeably more costly than expected. I know now, but newbies, here's your heads up! Also, during COVID at least, you must wait outside until called. Not a big deal, just make sure you have appropriate attire for the weather!** Will return for sure, just costly annoyances on the first go. read more

Sometimes booked 3 weeks out. Great service. Makes sense why. Has that not too fancy feel.

I recently move to Birmingham and I was not able to find a good place to get a haircut until I came across single barrel barbershop. I had an appointment with Whitney knight and she did a great Job. This place has a great environment and folks working in here seem very nice. read more

Great haircut, friendly staff. Luis was quick but thorough and I'm quite happy after awhile of looking for around. Clean shop in a nice area. It was cash or check only. They have an ATM there or I was invited to leave and come back if I preferred to go to my bank. Appreciate the simple gesture of trust that demonstrates. read more

A good, traditional shop. They do use a straightedge, which I think is an essential feature. Wish they were open a little later.

This place is something else, my wife was 5 minutes late for an apt for our 9-year-old son and Whitney made a fuss about it and complained to the owner. It wasn't even a great haircut for over $30 dollars. I would look elsewhere in the Birmingham area. read more

Been going here for around two years, they cut mine and my sons hair. Always been very pleased. Brandon does great work. Would highly recommend. read more

Came here because my normal barber was out of commission for the weekend. If you come here, make sure you make it completely clear what kind of haircut you want. Ended up with a cut that I'm going to have to get fixed somewhere else because one of their barbers went completely off script and gave me something I didn't ask for. Pricy haircut too. read more

Just went for my first haircut at this establishment today, everyone was super friendly!! I got my hair cut by Whitney Knight. She's a new addition to this shop but has a lot of previous experience and gave me exactly the kind of haircut I asked for! I'll be going back read more

I have been using Matt Folker, the owner of Single Barrel Barber Shop for almost nine years. His new shop is amazing, comfortable and has great prices. Their customer service is amazing but most importantly, they have the best barbers in the Magic City. read more

Went in there on a Saturday morning and waited for some time. After a about twenty minutes I approached a barber and was told that he couldn't attend to me as they were too overfilled with appointments, even though there was a shop full of barbers, no one was after me,and walk-ins are supposedly welcomed. Overall, a very cold approach for a barbershop and wouldn't want to recommend or see any one go through this. There are plenty of more welcoming and attentive barbershops in the area. read more

Took my son here for the first time Chris did a great job fixing my sons haircut from previous cut at a different location , their very friendly highly recommend You do have to make appointment in advance read more

One of the owners/barber Joey always does an excellent job! He is very meticulous & asks questions to make sure my haircut is exactly what I want & makes recommendations on maintaining the haircut. I HIGHLY recommend Single Barrel Barbershop! read more

Why would you ever get your hair cut anywhere else? Immaculately kept shop in a great area offering cuts, beard trims, and shaves. Staff is friendly, attentive, and talented. Walk-in service is available. I had Joey "fix" an awful cut I received back home, and he was able to square me away in no time. Brandon expertly tamed my son's unruly hair ahead of dropping him at UAB. Whole-heartedly recommend this shop; go elsewhere at your own peril! read more

Guys this is a fun and talented group. I've been twice, and had a great experience both times. I highly recommend this place. The prices are reasonable for the level of service you'll receive. read more

I switched to Single Barrel two months ago. Great service and great people. It's really easy to make a reservation. Highly recommended!

Matt has been cutting my hair for quite some time now and always does a fantastic job. He takes his time and doesn't rush through, always pays attention to detail. I haven't been to any of the other guys in the shop, but always enjoy chatting it up with everyone there. It is cash only so either bring some bills, a check, or use the ATM in the shop if you're in a pinch. Highly recommend! read more

I have been going to Matt for years and had recommended him to many of my friends. There isn't another barber in town allowed to touch my beard. I'm so excited that Matt has his own shop now and he's gathering some great barbers to provide top quality service to the city in a modern and clean and well equipped shop. read more

First place in Birmingham to cut my husband's hair to his liking.. after living here for 8 years he has finally found someone! Brandon is wonderful! Great atmosphere - great service. read more

This place was great I went on a weekday and I walked right in and sat down. Joey did a great job trimming my beard and and my hair. I will definitely go back. I believe this place will do great in homewood for years to come. read more

I was in the process of shopping around for a new barber, before I was recommended to Single Barrel. I prefer to keep to one person who does my hair, so I was to thrill about trying different people out until I find one that fits me. That's when I met Brandon Madison at Single Barrel. After being recommended to him, I made an appointment and gave it a shot. Right after my haircut, I knew that Brandon was gonna be my guy from now on. Single Barrel is conveniently located within the Soho shopping district. The shop is open and spacious. They also offer beard trims, shaping, ect. as well. The price point and appropriate for the service, and the service, let me just say is fantastic. I've been with Brandon for a couple of months now and he always does an amazing job. I've also recommend a couple of clients to him as well and they've all been more than satisfied. If you're in search of a new spot to get that hair trimmed, I can't recommend Brandon and Single Barrel enough! read more

Wow this place is the best I find the entire crew to be friendly and professional. It's the best haircut I've ever had.

Great barbershop. Chris Elías was very professional. The barbershop is well maintained & clean. I got an amazing cut and shave. Most definitely going back read more

I lucked out. I called and got right in. Excellent service. A modern facility but reminded me of an old fashioned shop. Very neat and clean. Chris did a great job l'll be back. read more

Best barbershop around. The guys are really cool and take their time to do a great job. You can even get a shave. I have been to many barbershops in town and this is the only place to go. read more

Chris did a great job and really took his time. I am very pleased with my cut and will continue to go back in the future. Remember it is cash only. read more

Single barrel is exactly what I want in a barber shop. I went to see Brandon for about two months before moving to Atlanta. Just got my first haircut in Atlanta, and damn, I miss Single Barrel. Paid nearly twice as much for a lower quality cut at a cheesy "Americana" type of shop in ATL. Single Barrel is the real deal. They're down to earth, regular guys that make you feel welcomed and give great cuts. Highly recommend them to any one looking for quality hair cut or beard trim. read more

The atmosphere of this place is pretty good and everyone that works there is nice. It's also a clean place. They even have an area for kids to play. But, the guy I got a haircut from did not do a good job at all. The hair on the top of my head was around 6 inches long with a fade on the side. I had gotten a haircut from this establishment a few months prior and it wasn't a great haircut but it wasn't terrible. It was time for a haircut again so I asked for a fade a light trim on top and for the hair on the back of the top of my head to get cut shorter. I ended up with the back of my head getting buzzed and a lazy messy fade. The haircut I received is the worst I have ever witnessed. I actually had to go home and shave my head because the back of my head to almost the top was buzzed to a 2 and the rest was 6 inches long and there was still hair around my ears below the fade line that was missed that was about an inch long. The only reason this is a two star review is because the place was clean. I really wanted to like this place but overpriced haircuts for cool chairs is not worth it. read more
