But let me tell you, the first guy took 45 min, second guy was 75 min in and still going by the time I left. The first barber (light-skinned latino) took 45 min, worked hard and did an excellent job on an older man. Honestly, while I waited and saw him work, I wanted my cut with him. Unfortunately he left to go inside their building and was replaced by this young black haired latino. He was working on this guy who walked in with a Phil Foden cut and 75 min in, largely unchanged but with a clean trim on the sides. (There was hardly any hair on the ground ) One reason his cut was taking so long was this barber was too busy live-streaming on his phone, occasionally looking at peoples' comments. It also didn't help he was cutting at a snail's pace. It's one thing to be attentive to detail (something the first barber was good at). It's another to just go hair by hair. Bad for business, wasting peoples' time, so much that I don't feel like stopping by the actual shop. Hope the business sees this and if they do, please let me know the name of that guy. If I ever do stop by, I'd like to avoid him at all cost.

Look at all the hair cut in 75 min! Hope his live stream goes viral though.

Overall, I am happy with this barber shop and will continue to patronize them. I've been twice and…read morehad 2 different barbers. I would say that their beard shape ups are top-notch. I am incredibly picky about my haircut and both times I couldn't stay longer, but if I could have, I would have had them get it perfect. I don't doubt the skills, I just need to explain exactly what I want better. I am about 90% satisfied with both haircuts (Again, I am a bit crazy about how perfect the cut is). The price is a tad high, I can't get out of here for under $100.

But I expressly said what kind…read moreof cut I wanted and I even made sure to spend time pointing out an issue that from a prior haircut that I wanted addressed. Barber said sure, no problem, I got this. $120 later and it turns out - he didn't. Six weeks later, not only is the problem still there, it's even MORE pronounced. It is a source of frustration, annoyance, and regret every day. A lot of people like this place and I probably would have gone back - bad cuts happen, I guess, but for $120? Nah - you have to do better than that.

I would ask for Tamara when there isn't a big wait time but otherwise go with whoever is available first and still never disappointed with the service. The staff is pretty nice, does a no nonsense, super quick service and listen to your requests. Some staff members like Steve take appointments too to manage the wait times better. So make sure to call them if you want a particular person and don't have time to wait. The price is pretty reasonable for Silver Spring rates. Difficult to get parking right in front of the building but you can find metered parking very easily if you go to Spring street.

The place is clean, the staff friendly, and the haircuts are good. I try to stop in whenever I need a haircut. However, one small word of warning: the place is cash only. They have an ATM on site, but it's one of the more expensive ATMs I've ever used -- the fee is $3.75 (and my bank then charges another $2.50 on top), so I have to add an extra $6.25 to my haircut price. :( They don't have any signage up saying, "Welcome to 1964, we're cash only," and finding out -after- you've gotten a haircut leaves you only the option of using their expensive machine. Also, NGL.... it is 2025. I've seen buskers with signs that accept card. Nobody carries cash anymore, and there's no legit reason to not accept cards. Pass that extra 3% or whatever on to me, it'd still be cheaper than the ATM fee.

For more than two decades, Derrick & Darren's has consistently provided excellence, not only in the quality of his work, but in the entire customer experience. From the moment you walk into the shop, you're treated with professionalism, respect, and genuine care. I've never felt like I was simply another client sitting in the chair. I've always been made to feel more like family. One thing I especially appreciate is how much this barbershop values the customer's time. When I make an appointment, I'm usually in the chair within just a couple of minutes. There's no sitting around wondering when it will be my turn. That level of consistency and respect for your schedule is rare, and it speaks volumes about how he runs his business. The shop itself reflects that same standard of excellence. The atmosphere is always clean and welcoming, the service is professional, and the attention to detail is always there. And, of course, the haircut speaks for itself, my sons and I have received more compliments over the years than I can count. Twenty-one years is a long time to trust someone with your appearance, but when the service, quality, professionalism, and relationship remain this strong, there's simply no reason to go anywhere else. I've trusted Derrick and Darren's with my haircut for over 21 years, and I've never had a reason to go anywhere else. After 21 years, that says everything.

I've been going to Derrick for years, and I can honestly say he never disappoints! Great skills, a…read moreclean shop, and that classic barbershop feel where the atmosphere is welcoming, the laughs are guaranteed, and you leave looking upgraded every time.

Rich needed a hair trim and since Edwin's is so close to our home he decided to give them a try. The shop is new and clean with a number of chairs. Rich was pleasantly surprised when he got to the shop and they were busy. From reading other reviews I see Edwin already had a following from a nearby shop who followed him to his new shop. Unfortunately Rich didn't ask his barber's name as he did such an outstanding job. He took his time, would trim, step back, double-check and make adjustments he felt were needed. The final cut was one of the best Rich has ever had. And the price was extremely reasonable. Needless to say Edwin's will now be Rich's regular barbershop.
