This shop is amazing. So kind and positIve energy. My new go to barber! Thanks Johnny!

I went in for a beard trim based upon a friend's recommendation, which was spot on. Comfortable setting and excellent service. Moe was friendly and professional and after checking in with me regarding what I was hoping for, did a great trim. I'm happy to recommend this place and plan on returning. read more

Go see Johnny at Squire. He listens before he picks up the scissors. He's got taste, attention to detail, and the kind of easy, good-humored nature that makes the whole appointment feel like you're catching up with a friend (a friend who has the ability to make you look hotter). I walked in a tragic mess and walked out feeling like a functioning adult again. Great cut, great vibe, great human. Johnny is the real deal. read more

Squire Barbershop has a really nice aesthetic and a comfortable setup for people waiting for their cuts. I loved the magazines they had--they covered the history of hairstyles from around the world, which was super interesting. My barber was friendly and easy to talk to. Overall, great service and a really welcoming experience. read more

Scheduled a haircut on July 1st using their online booking directly on their website. I got multiple texts and email reminders about the appointment. I showed up for the appointment 10 minutes early and the shop was closed. I waited until 10 minutes after my appointment time and nobody ever showed up. I texted their number and nobody responded. They just completed dropped the ball, no explanation. read more

Best haircut I've had in ages from a supremely awesome barber, Francisco. He was ready to leave for the day, but when he heard that another barber canceled my appointment at the last minute he dropped everything and cut my hair. And took time. Not rushed. He was great to talk with -- we discussed travel and food. And when I got home my wife was impressed with my cut. I'd recommend this barbershop and, in particular, Francisco to anyone. Plus, there was a rad little shop dog hanging out and excellent music playing. Don't overlook this gem. read more

This barber shop has a cool vibe to it with friendly staff. I requested a mid-high fade with a trim on top. Moe was excellent and gave a high quality cut with good conversation. Think this will be my new barber shop and will be back for the next cut. read more

One of the best barber experiences I've had in a while. I was out in Seattle for a wedding last weekend and needed a cleanup for my hair. I booked an appointment with David a couple of days in advance before I arrived in town. Squire Barbershop itself is very nice and put together. The decorations are vintage, which I appreciate, and there are a lot of books dedicated to the craft of barbering as well as barbershops of the US. My appointment was scheduled for 11:45 AM. When I arrived , David was wrapping up with a customer so I waited for a few minutes and looked at some of the books that they had around. My haircut / beard trim experience was fantastic. David is a meticulous artist when it comes to barbering - he trimmed my beard freehand which I thought was very impressive and he did a very good job cleaning up the sides and back of my hair. While giving the haircut, he and I had a lot of good conversation about all sorts of stuff (life, mythology, you name it). I found it very entertaining and really appreciated the at he talked during the cut. If I ever move to Seattle, I know where and who I'll be going to for sure. Can't reccomend this place enough 5/5 read more

Loved this cool vibe barber shop. They got us in without an appointment in a pretty reasonable time. The guys were friendly, the place is really comfortable and the skill was fantastic. Recommend it. They did a great job with my husband's curly and not easy to cut hair and it's one of the best cuts he has had. Check them out! read more

I made an appointment online to see Francisco. Paid for the haircut and a tip. Showed up on the arranged day and time and waited for 20 minutes. No Francisco. Finally one of the other barbers asked me who I was waiting for. When I told them, the other barber contacted F (by phone, I think). F told that barber that he had contacted me to reschedule. I received no such message by any of email, text, or voice mail. I would not recommend to anyone that they use this shop. read more

For two long years since I've moved here, I've tried about 7 different barbers. Some came close but it was Calvin who absolutely nailed what I was looking for. He listened to what I said and the examples I brought and took his time to create an amazing cut. Not to mention talking to him is an absolute delight. 10/10. Go here! read more

Moe is the best. Always takes good care of me and my cut. Cheers brother. Casual and relaxing place to get your hair did. Mad skills with fades and any kind of cut read more

I found my new barber! 5 stars for Erick!! Just moved to Seattle from LA and I gotta tell you I was stressed tf out trying to find a new barber. Fortunately I found Erick on IG and man he lives up to his reputation. I couldn't be happier with my fade! Will definitely be returning! read more

Let me say I am a female from 3 states away and know nothing about beards and shaving. My Father was hospitalized and mentioned his beard was so long. (I have never in my 55 years seen stubble on his face) I worked with a staff member of the hospital to locate someone who could get him a shave. Calvin is the most amazing person who not only volunteered but headed to the hospital that very day and was able to get my father to feeling absolutely dapper from a fresh shave. What an amazing individual to do extra work to assist in my father's care. Thank you, thank you thank you. My father says he feels so much better and I could hear in his voice he was in high spirits. read more

As someone with Asian hair that grows straight out and bad cowlicks, I was apprehensive about having to look for a new barber. But Erick did a great job, helping me change my hairstyle from a side part to a textured crop. He did a really great job on the shape and worked with the direction of my hair to help the cowlicks lay down. I also have really straight hair that tends to be really flat, but he was able to achieve great texture on the top. Gave a great fade, too. Would highly recommend Erick, and he definitely knows how to cut Asian hair. read more

Aly Mac has given me the best haircut I've had in Seattle. And she's done it twice now. I have found my spot. Pleasant atmosphere, good music, fun conversation, and a haircut that makes my wife swoon. What more can you ask for? read more

Amazing barbers and conversationalists, I'd recommend this place to anyone who asks. Going to be my new regular.

Made an appointment before coming up. Squire was not far from where I was staying. I was looking pretty ratty and well, since I'm on vacation, might as well take advantage of it and my trip. SBS was highly rated on Yelp so might as well go with the best. I arrived just before my my time and Andrew was just getting settled. Asked what I wanted and just told him short and something hip and cool. She: If you're looking for something new, hip and cool....you've come to the right guy. Great endorsement from who I believe was his girlfriend. Andrew took his time and we had a great conversation at the same time. The thing I liked the most was that he didn't face me toward the mirror at all, so when he was done, voila...a new person was looking back at me. I felt like a new man! So much so, on my way home, I got the flirty hello from the girl at DeLaurenti, and a flirty wink from the guy at the cash register....LOL! I feel any one of the barbers at SBS are great! The vibe is very chill and inviting. I felt sorry for the poor shmucks who were trying to get in before leaving town for Thanksgiving...should've made an appointment. Thanks Andrew! Until my travels bring me back up here! read more

(Changing the review to 3-star after talking with David offline.) I don't like sound a whining bitch, but this is something I must share as this is the first time I've been treated this way by a business. I recently moved to Seattle and was looking for a good barbershop near my place. Thought this would be good choice because of all the good reviews, but based on my experience today, they apparently do not welcome me as a guest. I didn't make an appointment since on Yelp it says they "accept walk-ins whenever (they) can". When I walked in, there were two guys eating snacks over the counter, and two other barbers cutting hairs for other customers. There were no other customers in line, but two kids playing in the waiting area. The place is spacious, so I didn't approach anyone but chose to sit on the sofa instead, hoping someone would talk to me when they were free. The two guys did have eye contact with me when I entered, but somehow decided to ignore me, and went out to get lunch instead. When they were back, we had eye contact again, they still didn't talk to me, or even ask why was I here. I have never been to a barbershop more badass than this that people don't even bother talk to you. If you cannot do my haircut, fine, just let me know. If you do not accept walk-ins, fine, I'll walk away. I did walk away after waiting for five minutes, but felt humiliated for being completed ignored, so I went back and confronted them. I first asked do they accept only appointments, they said "generally yes". Then I asked why didn't they tell me that, they gave excuses like "we do ask our customers to check in first" (which I didn't see any sign about it on the door I walked in), "we don't have a reception", and "you can always talk to us". Then I said, "if you don't want to cut my hair, just let me know", their response was: "well, we certainly aren't for everyone". There you go! Sorry for being a beardless Asian that doesn't fit your aesthetic pursuant of nice hair to cut, but it would be appreciated if you could spare your precious time to at least tell me: "Sorry, sir. We only take customers with appointments". At least that was nice to hear. -- @David, thanks for the reply. But had you admitted you had some misleading information on your yelp page (see attached screenshot, I got it from cached Google search, but it was actually pretty easy to find on the mobile app), and not edited the page instead, I will actually feel bad about myself and delete this review and move on. I may be wrong to assume I were discriminated, be it race or any other factors, but the fact that your barbers didn't even bother talking to a customer walks in at least proves they do not care enough to accommodate potential new customers. I get that everyone needs a lunch break and I'm OK with waiting for more minutes or come back later----and make an appointment if needed. But is it really too hard to ask "do you have an appointment" when people walk in? It is simply false that your barbers didn't see me. We had eye contact for two times! And no, I don't think it was verbally abuse to express my frustration of being ignored by asking "why don't you talk to me?". However, after reading your reply, I had some reflection and do feel sorry for losing my temper and judging your staff too fast. Apologies for making a scene and I agree I shouldn't be so confrontational when communicate my frustration. Discrimination should not be the first thing jumps into my head as I believe Seattle is better than this, but please try to understand how it feels when you believe (be it legitimate or not) that someone intentionally ignores you multiple times. read more

Gone to see Johnny at Squire several times, and he always delivers and excellent haircut. He's meticulous and thorough, trimming and grooming everything above the neck. Thanks, Johnny! read more

Made an appointment over two weeks out but cancelled on me one hour prior to our appointment. Emergency or something? No worries, who can cover? No one. Very unprofessional. However, because of this, I did find a new barber on 5th Ave. read more

Moe was great! Professional, punctual, detail oriented, took his time to listen to what I wanted, and personable!

Great cut! Johnny listened to what I wanted, and delivered with a quality cut. Plus we had a good conversation. Good spot.

I just want to give a major thanks again to David. I had an appointment with another barber but something came up and David was about to stay after hours to still cut my hair. He not only took his time despite staying late but did a great job! read more

Followed Johnny here from his previous barber shop- worth the venture off the hill. Maybe it's the fun banter or seriously awesome hair cut I'm never unhappy sitting down for a session with him. I've recommended Johnny many times. All the feedback has been the same, stellar! Scheduling and going to get your haircut can feel like a chore at times but the feeling after a great cut from Johnny makes it totally worth it. read more

Been going here since I moved in 2010 - always a stellar haircut from Bryan. The owner Dave is a great guy and his team all does excellent work. If you want a particular barber, make an appt, because they are always busy. The new location, across the street from NiteLite, is right around the corner from the old one. It's spacious, good music and comfortable couches while you wait. HIGHLY RECOMMEND you try this place out! Also, check out reviews from their old place since Yelp didn't want to move them with their listing! Only the location changed not the staff! read more

Squire Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Erik is the best. After reading several reviews, I decided to book an appointment with him. It was one of birthday presents for my boyfriend. My boyfriend hates to spend any more than 20 on his haircut and is a big believer of any hair cut over 20 is a waste. But, he absolutely loved it and now he is sure this is where he wants to go for his routine haircut. Erik is not only talented but also very professional and considerate. He made sure my boyfriend is satisfied with the cut and made suggestions along the way that fit perfectly with his hair conditions. read more

Apparently They are not able to reserve a spot through the phone. I called them, I and the person on the phone agreed to reserve me a spot for the following week. When I arrived, they never set it on the system and I wasted my time going there. read more

Squire Barbershop continues to be a top notch joint. David and his crew are solid people with good skills. The shop is always full of good personality while maintaining a true barbershop feel (ie: you'll hear some adult words and grown up conversations, although politics are generally avoided) Without fail I'll get complements on my hair after a visit to Squire read more

Great location. Prices are very fair for the area especially for the quality of shop and cut. My only issue is with the booking process. This would be a 5 star shop to me if the booking website had more information on which Haircut meant what and what price each is. I see 3+ haircut options and didn't really know what to choose, the price I paid was $3 higher than the website (website only says all regular cuts are $32). Wish each option had a flat time instead of a range of length as to make it easier for me know which to pick once I know how long my barber takes to cut my style. read more

I had David for my haircut. Showed him a picture of how I want my hair and he delivered. Nice job on the fade ! Great service , clean shop located in the heart of Seattle downtown. If you are used to getting haircuts from cali /Vegas areas, then this is your spot. read more

Exceptional barber shop! I've been coming here for years and Erick is my go to guy. Super solid skin fade and his attention to detail is meticulous! Relaxed feel and no propaganda displayed. Keep up the wonderful job guys! You've certainly got a loyal customer in me! read more

Love the haircut at this place. Very meticulous & elegant. Only wish it were easier to find an appointment.

Please have some common sense next time and don't shave me bald for everywhere but the top. Barber didn't check to see if I liked what he was doing or anything. I faced away from the mirror the entire time until he was done and by then the damage was already done. read more

Love this place! Ali gave me the freshest Mohawk burst fade. She got me looking a fly af with the dope do! I will definitely be back. Two years of looking for a barber and I finally her. Thanks lady! I'll be back in a couple months. read more

I cannnnnot type enough 2 relay what a paradise this place is 4 any man who takes his hair as seriously as women do. SQUIRE is located just outside the official perimeter of Pike's + there R myriad parking lots and garages = parking should not B a deterrent. My husband of nearly 25 years has a normal, non-trendy, low-maintenance, business-like hairstyle. David, the owner of SQUIRE, has been 1 of our precious finds since moving 2 Snoqualmie from SanDiego. Yes, we make that horrible drive = ha ha. I have always booked him w/ my current hairstylist but now I understand the gravity of what going 2 barber school means. It means that your hair grows out evenly + effortlessly. It means a 45-60 minute appointment w/ someone solely dedicated 2 executing perfect cuts, every single time. If U R a man + frequenting a salon solely focused on women's hair, please read the reviews, visit the website + book an appointment. No need 2 pre-pay online. And pleeeeeze do not feel slighted if U R not greeted @ the door as there is no receptionist and every singer barber is 100% focused on their client(s). As an added attraction, SQUIRE is basically a hi-end antique store w/ not-4-sale memorabilia from the decades... Better hair is only keystrokes away fellas... XoXo read more

Great haircut, cool spot, very happy with the outcome. Will be back for sure . Not much else to say, just perfect.

Erick Huesca is by-far the best barber I've ever been too. He's professional, perfectionist, courteous, efficient. The appointment process has been flawless. His expertise exceeds and surpasses all the others. Very impressed. He's a keeper. read more

Awesome spot to get a cut! I've been going here for around 8 months now and walk away loving the look every time. Andrew does a great job and is extremely easy to work with. The shop recently launched online booking, which makes scheduling an appointment super easy. Only recommendation is to book a few weeks in advance, as the place is always packed. read more

Two things you don't do, drink bad wine and go to a bad barbershop. I looked far and wide before settling down on a barbershop, and for the last 15 months, I've had no regrets. These guys are good! They seem to have good rapport among them, play a wide variety of music, so it's likely that you'll hear something you like, and unlike women's parlors/spas, they don't seem interested in your sex life. I'm not big on small talk so I appreciate the lack of chatter while being worked on. Andrew is my go to guy, but he seems to be one of the most popular too. I've had sessions with Eric, and once with Rachel, the only female barber working there, and they both did good. I've a beard (for a man living in Seattle, it'd be weird not to have facial hair), and like how Andrew takes his time until he is happy with the work he has done. I show high level of commitment and ethics for my job, so I definitely appreciate seeing someone else do the same. They have an online appointment system that works, but isn't the most sophisticated in the world. If you're canceling an appointment, I recommend picking up the phone. I also recommend that you book your appointment well in advance; I can't count how many times I saw someone walk in and leave disappointed hearing that there was no spot for the rest of the day. Service at the Squire doesn't come cheap like the run-of-the-mill at some franchise, but you get what you pay for. As of this writing, a haircut, beard trim with tips would set you about $50 light. The only downside that's not their problem at all but I'd be damned if I didn't say, is parking. There are couple of lots around, but on a weekend, an hour or more could cost you around $20. Ouch! Take the bus if you can. read more
