I moved into NE less than a year ago and have been on the hunt for a new barber. I drove past this place and gave it a chance, and I'm glad I did. Upon entering the shop, I was greeted by the owner, Kelly. She was very friendly and welcoming when I walked in. I had scheduled an appointment with Nick Stewart and didn't know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised. Nick is very welcoming and easy to talk to. He has a lot of experience and the best part - he listened to what I was looking for. He didn't go as short as most barbers do - he really stood out for me. The cut is priced at $34 dollars. You just cannot beat that in the city. I'm excited I no longer have to look for a barber. read more

I only go here now. Simple no nonsense affordable haircut, great conversation, super chill. And most important I always like how my hair looks. read more

Had my hair cut here a few years ago and the haircut was good but the vibe was off and the barber was a bit rude.

First off let me tell you it's been 9 years since I've been to a barber. I have done my own hair for many years. So I thought I would treat myself to a head and face shave. Wish I would of found them sooner. Kelly made me feel like I was a regular and did a wonderful job. I will definitely be back. read more

The Barber Sharp - Barbers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Legit never have had a bad experience here. I think I've gone 7 or 8 times now and they are always on their A-Game. They actually care about the end product, accept card, and are always extremely friendly Got my hair cut by Jesse this time and he did a great job. The rest of the team is great too. Will be a customer so long as I live in the Twin Cities read more

I have been going here for the past year and have really enjoyed it...but the last two visits are why I'll never go back. The last two times I've gotten a haircut there the barbers have publicly trashed the owner, complained about previous customers, and yelled and swore at one another over my head about booking issues and scheduling mix-ups. I know I'm paying $24 for a haircut so I'm not expecting an Aveda experience but I definitely shouldn't leave a haircut more stressed out than when I came in. It honestly seems like a toxic work environment that has gotten so bad that it has bled over into the customer experience. For example... When I left the last time I was eager to get out of there so I didn't really take a close look at my haircut (also I've never gotten a bad cut there). However, when I got home and looked a little closer, my haircut was an absolute mess. Long hairs left around my ears, parts of my fade completely missed and left long at my hairline. Truly amateur mistakes. Because my barber was so concerned about appointments being switched and yelling across the shop at coworkers they were completely distracted and did a truly terrible job. I've never written a review before but my last visit there left me truly speechless and I hope they can figure some things out before it ruins their reputation and their business. read more

Stopped in for a spur of the moment haircut on 2/12, and have to say I wish I had gone somewhere else. I don't typically write reviews but felt I needed to share my experience so people are aware of what they are getting into. I was first on the wait list, and got set up with D within a couple minutes. He was very nice and asked what we were doing today. I told him I like a #2 on the sides, blended to the top and that I like my neckline tapered down to a #1. D said he likes to taper to the skin for a 'clean look', which was fine until I realized later that he meant he was going to taper to the skin on me, instead of following my direction. Next thing I know, D is turning me around in my chair and the left side of my head is shaved with a #2/#3 up to almost the middle of the top of my head, where it met a comb-over of hair 2-3" long. I told him that is not at all what I wanted and tried to explain that the part he went with was not blended like I asked for. I know the undercut/hard part is in fashion lately but I never once mentioned wanting that look. D later said he sees a lot of that style so just assumed. My grandma always said don't assume, it makes an A$$ out of U and ME. And she was right again - RIP Lila. The right side of my head was blended as hoped, but I was absolutely not going for the asymmetrical cut I received and told him the same. Given the part was cut so high on the left side, a traditional/symmetrical blended haircut was out of the question. I expressed my displeasure and D began to explain that it was the same on both sides, which it clearly wasn't. At this point I had to instruct D how to salvage my haircut which resulted in me going home with essentially a buzzcut/Marine style high and tight look. While I explained my disappoint, D almost seemed taken aback that I didn't like what he'd done. If he had listened to my original request and asked questions before getting so far into the cut, thing would have gone much better. After getting home I realized my neck was shaved to the skin an inch or two higher than my natural hairline, again, not the #2 to #1 taper I asked for. I was never shown the back of my head by D so had no idea this is what it looked like. Every barber I've been to makes a point to show the end result including the hairline in the back, but that didn't happen. The down to the skin taper was done pretty haphazardly without a clean fade from the #2 to the skin, nor a natural shape. If it was done with a better attention to detail I could have lived with it, but it honestly looks like it was done by an amateur. Lastly, D 'lined/edged'-up the hairline around my forehead and down into my sideburns which I was not hoping for. Now I have shaved patches that will become stubble and not blend well with the rest of my haircut very soon. I've never had a barber alter my hairline and sideburns this way, and definitely not before asking if I wanted it done. D did an okay job of fixing things where he could and taking time to work through the problem, but in the end the experience and haircut was not satisfactory. I stated very clearly what I wanted with the blended cut and slight taper on the neck and can't figure out why a barber would ignore their customer's request. I have been searching for a new barber for 8 months since moving back to Minneapolis and this has been my worst experience to-date. While living in Dallas I could always find a barber that would take his time and discuss his plan with me before starting my cut, even at a cheap walk-in shop. They would also stop to show progress to make sure everything looked good. Better safe than sorry! I don't think I'll ever return to the Barber Sharp. The owner was nearby and clearly saw my displeasure but did nothing to remedy the situation. D said he was glad I spoke up but did not offer a discount or anything to make up for the problem. Good news is hair grows back, and because it's about a #2 on top after my trip to D at the Barber Sharp, I have plenty of time to find my next barber! read more

Really cool place and vibe. Seemed like great people that can do great work. Just not what I want or need. Got a pretty bad cut; I felt I used the right terminology to explain what I wanted, but got something that wasn't even finished. May be just a one time thing, but not a risk I want to take again. I can deal with a bad haircut, but mine looks unfinished... read more

The Barber Sharp - Not a clean fade at all. Might not be noticeable to some. But I didn't feel good about this purchase. - Barbers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Wanted to really like this place because of Kelly's warm welcome and the ambiance. Was scheduled with Ryan but Kelly sent me to Dave. Dave said people call him Allstate because I was in good hands, not the case. Literally anyone else's hands would have been better. Told him I wanted razor shave for face, head and neck. He buzzed my head and beard, no problem. He took 10 minutes finding the headrest for my chair so I could lean back for the face shave. Then after 5 or 6 hot towels on my face he started. First: When I felt the first nick, I was like, "ok, it happens," trying to stay positive. Then I noticed he was spending a lot of time trying to stop the bleeding! He said it was his second day on the job and he hadn't shaved someone's face in 20 years! Why is this person holding a blade to my face then!? Wish I wasn't rushed and just waited for Ryan, the guy Kelly scheduled me with the day prior when I told her what I wanted. Kelly came over and saw my face and said, no charge for the face shave, then she apologized and asked if I was okay, which was nice of her. Second: Then Dave probably felt embarrassed and started to rush. He apologized about the cut, blamed it on the razor. I told him I usually shave with the grain, then against it. He said, "oh yeah, I was trying to do that." He just lied to my face because when it was all over I felt hair on my head and face when I rubbed against the grain. He didn't nick my head or neck so that was good and surprising since he hauled ass. Third: He patted my neck and head with a wet towel and said, ok all done. I could've sworn I was supposed to get some kind of aftershave since it was after my shave! Just a minute prior I heard Ryan next door with his client say, "ok now that your face shave it done I'm going to put the alcohol on." Dave said he would only charge for a haircut. When I went to pay Kelly looked at me and said no charge at all! Very nice of her. I can appreciate she was trying to run an honest business. I felt bad for the guy and although he may have gave me literal scars for life, lied to me and tried his best to rush me out of there, gave him $20 for his time. After I got home and saw the random hair he missed in different places, bad cuts on my face(pics posted), felt hair everywhere there shouldn't have been any, I regretted giving him a cent. Sounds like Kelly prides herself on having an old fashioned barber shop, this unfortunately, is not one. She is a nice person but they should focus on quality, not quantity. I'm never coming back again. I guess I would if I had an appointment with Ryan. Oh wait, I did! read more

The Barber Sharp - Barbers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

See all

The Yelp effect is when a few good reviews drive a great deal of traffic to a business, sometimes out of proportion with the quality. This is apparently the case with the Barber Sharp. Let me make this simple. Worst. Haircut. Ever. Kelly Sharp started cutting hair a year ago - her inexperience shows. When you cut men's hair short it should be symmetric. I didn't realize how bad my buzz cut was until I got home and my partner looked at it - basically it was patchy and some spots were twice as long as the other. Kelly's background is as a realtor; her marketing skills are great. A free PBR is nice, she chats up a storm, and the shop is quaint and hipsterish. The problem is that she tends to ADHD while you want your barber to have OCD. In summary, if you want entertainment go to the Barber Sharp. If you want a good haircut, go elsewhere. read more

After nearly 6 months of letting a full beard grow out, I decided it was time to get it trimmed by a professional. I hadn't been to a barber in over 40 years, so I was a little surprised that I could get an appointment. Appointments were one of the reasons I stopped going to barbers and started going to stylists when I had hair. I also preferred the atmosphere of most stylists salons over barbershops. I got enough of that macho stuff at work and really enjoyed having a woman cut my hair. Being a bald man, I wanted to find a place which got good reviews on beard trims, and when I read how happy some of Kelly's beard trim customers were, I decided to give The Barber Sharp & Salon a try. Kelly greeted me with a friendly smile and introduced herself while offering me a chair and a place to hang my motorcycle gear. I wasn't sure what style of beard I wanted, so Kelly also had a copy of "Beard" by Matthew Rainwaters which I perused while choosing a style. Unable to make a choice, I told her I just wanted her to make me look my best and to do whatever she wanted to accomplish that task. Since this was the first time I had met Kelly, I showed her a photo of myself without a beard to give her an idea of what she was working with under all of that fur. Kelly took her time and gave much attention to detail, stopping frequently to assess her work in progress. She was very careful not to take off too much too soon. I also found Kelly to be very easy to talk with, and my time in the chair seemed to fly by. I couldn't have been more pleased with the end result. I will definitely be going back for another trim and maybe next time, a head and neck hot lather shave. Kelly Sharp knows her business and cares about her customer's appearance. I cannot recommend Kelly Sharp and The Barber Sharp & Salon highly enough! read more

I recently moved into Nordeast and am loving the atmosphere. Several walks around my neighborhood prove it is alive and vibrant. Walking along the street, I saw a sign for a barber shop, oddly called The Barber Sharp. A clever play on words, but it goes a little further than the sharp scissors thought. Recently transplanted and renamed, Kelly Sharp (see? layers of meaning!) has brought all the old school furnishings, complete with 1920's cash register and chairs, to her newly renovated space. She is quick to welcome you warmly and chat about her life, her training, and the like. She is also curious about you, and has the perfect personality for a barber: Warm and curious, yet not nosy. It should be noted that this establishment does not take credit cards. Cash or Check only. My hair is not an easy home run. Thick and wavy, it really has a mind of it's own. She was quick to assess that I like my hair a little longer on top, and always need my hair to be thinned a bit. She went straight to work, not even taking the time to try and up-sell me a wash (I would have liked one, actually, but a no nonsense approach is SOOOOO much better than a pushy one. I'll know to ask for one outright) She was calm and calculated with my hair, and a bit on the cautious side. It was my first haircut with her, after all! Anyone who goes to a different barber can tell you, the first cut is the most difficult. While not my best haircut ever, it was a great first cut. I'm am confident that with another time, she will have figured out this beast. She also offers as part of the service a straight razor neck shave. Invigorating! She is actively involved with the community, and is planning on starting a community garden, along with her art shows (the next one is September 16, 2011! 5-9pm) is really trying to live up to her motto: "Bringing people together for the greater good." In all, she is trying er best to lay down roots in this old part of town, and with any luck, she will be an establishment for years to come. read more

I took the time to create my Yelp account just to leave this first review. I moved to the NE area recently, and need to find a new local hair-cutting facility, because I'm not driving across town to my old place for a hair-cut. I was greeted very nicely at The Barber Sharp, I met the owner, Gus the dog, and my stylist - Erin. I received a complimentary pbr... however I quickly realized having a beer during a haircut is a bad idea, hair is flying everywhere including in the beer, and you don't want to move your head. The bill was $22, I tipped $7, only to go home and discover she completely butchered the job. She shaved my facial hairline (huh?) and it wasn't the same on both sides. Which accompanied the uneven ear-lines. Oh and lastly, I still haven't seen my neck-line, she didn't offer, and I'm not sure I want to see it now. This was the WORST haircut I've had in 15+ years. Stay away, you've been warned. I'm just glad hair grows back. read more

This review is for my husband who loves this place and wanted to ensure I gave Kelly and her staff the praise they deserve! We were looking for a local place for him and went to yelp to get some advice. After reading the reviews he decided to give it a try! The place has great ambiance, they give you a pbr while you are getting your hair cut, they are extremely friendly, and do a great job of cutting his hair! They also do a nice straight shave and accept all credit cards. read more

I went here on a recommendation from a friend. I was told that every customer gets a complimentary PBR to sip on while their hair is cut, so I figured I'd give it a shot. A few minutes into the cut, the barber informed me they were out of PBRs, which was a bit of a bummer, but not a deal breaker. The cut took about 30 minutes and included a straight razor neck shave. My preferred haircut is a basic sport cut, which almost every barber has experience with, so the cut looked great and was exactly what I expected it to be. If you're in Northeast and in need of a cut, give Barber Sharp a shot. Support local business! read more

I meant to write this long ago, but have since moved to a new shop where an old family friend cuts my hair now. Kelly has a one of a kind shop that could only exist in NE Mpls. The shop is warm, inviting, and smells as a barber shop should. Good music is always playing and they're always happy to have someone through the door. The staff is excellent and Kelly has more than one great story to tell. I recommend the full gentlemans treatment complete with shave. Enjoy a PBR while they work on you and in no time you'll feel like a million bucks. read more

I generally don't like haircuts. Constantly being "forced" into purchasing a service kind of irks me. Also, since I live in the Dinkytown neighborhood, my choices have been generic, impersonal, and of poor quality. Facing this conundrum, I turned to Yelp for an answer. I searched "haircuts" and came across The Barber Sharp, a small independent barber shop located in the Northeast neighborhood. Upon finding good reviews and reasonable prices, I thought I would give it a try. Good choice. The place is great. The vibe is relaxed, quant, and old-fashioned. Kelly, my barber, was inviting and friendly. She even offered a PBR while I was getting my hair cut. I couldn't help but to smile in response... and take the beer. The business is a stereotypically awesome Northeast operation. The service was great and very affordable. The Barber Sharp was able to turn a task I don't generally like into a nice diversion for the day. I highly recommend it. read more

While I didn't get a hair cut there, my boyfriend did and I got the full report. I've been pushing him to go to my salon but alas, he's avoided it due to the cost. I've always driven past The Barber Sharp and thought it looked like an awesome place. During Art-A-Whirl I prompted him, "Hey you should get your hair cut there!" And he did. He loved the shop and Kelly. As soon as he got his hair cut he texted me "Wow! I love it. No more Great Clips for me!" He was thrilled, and I think hooked for life. The service was great. What man can resist a beer while getting his hair cut? $17 for a amazing cut and good experience is an excellent deal. Thanks Kelly for making my beau looking sharp! read more

My favorite barber shop in the Twin Cities for the past 2 years. Tucked away in the heart of Northeast Minneapolis, The Barber Sharp features a wide array of men's hair styles and fun, knowledgable staff. It's centrally located, which makes my monthly treks here a great chance to check out some other spots in the Northeast neighborhood. In freer times, they were known for offering free beer to patrons, but as of this writing there are no more free PBRs. Damned liability issues. I place a real premium on having a good barber shop in my life and in the Twin Cities, I'll never go anywhere else. read more

Used to go see my friend at Regis salon. A couple reasons made me want a change- I'd rather not pay $30 for a haircut, and salons just are so women based it's just a tad uncomfortable to be in there if you're a man. I stumbled upon The Barber Sharp on Yelp, and decided to give it a try over Winston's and other places mainly because of the price.. I was not disappointed. Felt so comfortable there.. they even gave me a beer on the house. So awesome. Along with one of the best haircuts I've ever had and it was only $19! read more

Started going to Barber Sharp because I needed a beard trim and it was the closest barber. Didn't know I was finding the Twin Cities best gem. That was a half decade ago and I The only thing I get when I go somewhere else is disappointment. The vibe is great. Staff is having a good time. And the haircuts don't disappoint. read more

I'm new to Minnesota so I found The barber sharp here on Yelp and based off the reviews, decided I would give it a shot. When I walked in, Kelly had a client in her chair but didn't hesitate to greet me, ask my name, and if I had been there before. Since I just walked in, she checked her book and said she had someone available right away. Even the client told me I came at the right now, before the rush, and didn't seem bothered that I had interrupted his time (kudos to you sir!) I'm in the service, which Kelly figured by my cut and told me she had gotten me a barber that was prior service. I forget his name because I have a terrible memory (sorry) but he knew exactly what to do. He kept making sure it was at the length I wanted and took his time to make sure it to my liking. He offered me a PBR a little while after he started on my hair and we chatted away. Even the other stylist (sara I believe) talked with us. There wasn't a dull moment and I felt beyond comfortable with everyone in the shop. Finally, I found a place that can give me a high and tight the way I like it. I will definitely be back here for another cut and highly recommend others to give it a shot. read more

Been here four times now with a different person taking care of me each time. Smaller shop, which I prefer to a huge place. I've never had to wait longer than five minutes even when it's busy. The people are really genuine and do a great job. I think as with other shops it helps to have a slightly specific idea of what you want so you don't leave too much open to interpretation. I had someone sitting next to me say, "Just do whatever you want." This is fine, but if you're going to say that you need to be ready to accept almost anything. Would recommend to anyone. I've been happy every time so far. read more

I don't consider myself to be the most attractive man by any means but my last haircut here certainly made me feel otherwise. The following day I had strangers telling me I looked like Justin Timberlake, asking me if I was a model and on two separate occasions at my work asked me if they were on TV because they thought I was an actor playing a roll. With this new found confidence I asked a woman out whom I considered way out of my league and we are now dating. Moral of the story is never undervalue the investment of a sharp haircut and that Brian the Barber is a wizard. read more

There are lots of great barbers here; serious skills. Unfortunately... the scheduling system is a total shit show. Be prepared to wait a very long time if you're a walk-in. Also be prepared to wait if you actually schedule an appointment - you'll be "fit in" amongst the walk-ins. If you want a great cut, this is the place. Just go during off hours and you'll be fine. If you try any time after 3pm fuggetaboutit. read more

A PBR and a straight shave? YES PLEASE! For my money, the Barber Sharp delivers the best straight shave in the Twin Cities. It is definitely a cut above (see what I did there) Floyd's 99 and Heimie's. read more

The Barber Sharp - "Nick the barber" aka "nick steeves" nicksteeves.com ... Classic - Barbers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

This barber shop is amazing! The women who work there are super friendly and cool; I enjoyed myself thoroughly, especially compared to most haircut places. These ladies are master barbers, not hair stylists. They are very observant, communicative and easy-going, and go out of their way to make you happy. I got the Yelp deal for $20 worth of services for only $10 and got a excellent haircut, neck-hair shave and a beard trim! A great deal all around, plus they'll even give you a Pabst to drink while you get your hair cut, if you like. The shop also has an art gallery and masseuse inside. I checked this place out based on the reviews and their helpful website, and I am glad I did. I've been going to horrible chain places for a while and I will definitely come back here instead. It's local and the people and value are fantastic. read more

I've given this a few weeks so I can mull over my really, really bad experience here. First let me start off by mentioning the wait times. I actually didn't mind it, but it seems they also have booked appointments with clients, so instead of having a barber or two set up for walk ins only they made pretty much everyone wait. Almost seemed pointless to have an appointment system. But like I said, it was the least annoying thing about my first (and last cut there). The women at the front were super nice, friendly and tried explaining to everyone to put their name on the board. Everybody who had their hair cut with them seemed pleased. Then there was the judgemental and off putting barber hidden in the alcove. And that's sadly who I had. First of all, let me say that my hair was long and I was growing it out for a specific cut. The picture I showed the barber was a screenshot of a picture from THEIR Instagram. My cut is usually short on the sides with a tight pomp on top. I asked for the sides shaved and a pomp. What does he give me? A crew cut. No joke. 100% no making this up. Did he misunderstand? Was he not capable of anything more? Was he unsure? So many questions but not one logical answer. So basically I chalk it up to basic incompetence. A bad barber is a bad barber. Nothing more, nothing less. Now I have ridiculously short hair, but the flipside is that it's summer, so all is not lost. The other problem, which is why I waited so long before I wrote a review (asked friends near and far if this was inflammatory comments in his part), I was visiting from out of town. I specifically sought out this shop based on reviews and the Instagram output. I let my hair get shaggy for this cut, but usually have something very similar. So why do I feel that his comments are racially insensitive when he asked me "are you sure you can have this hairstyle? Have you had anything like this before?" It was off putting and I was flabbergasted, but I assumed (wrongly) that he could follow basic directions. Here is a tip. White people are not the only culture that sports pompadours. It's foolish to think that only "white hair" is capable of sculpting and carrying copious amounts of pomade. But it was my last issue that really made me feel unwelcome and instantly regret my decision of visiting this shop. In our small talk of where I'm from and my visit in town, I say "you should visit one day". Now anyone listening on, or part of the conversation knows it's polite talk and we both know I don't care if he comes to my city or not. But instead he says "ooooh no. No way." Huh? Then proceeded to tell me "isn't there a murder there every day". Really? You would say this to your client? About their hometown? Something he clearly is ignorant on? Frankly Minneapolis was a wonderful place to visit, I loved how multicultural it was, but when I dealt with small town mentality, like I did with this barber, it ruined things for me. So if you read this all, and was flip-flopping on whether to visit this shop, I implore you to take your money elsewhere. read more

Absolutely love this place and the people who work here! Kelly has brought together a stellar crew that does great work. My personal favorites are Gunner and Steph clean lines and perfect cuts. Plus, they're like a brother and sister comedy duo! My boyfriend and I are always extremely happy with the results. read more

Found Erin, the blonde stylist moved to Heart Salon! If you've had her, she's 3 blocks away!!!

I came here once and had an odd experience. The haircut by Kelly was terrific, but during the straight razor shave, her new dog (in the shop) barked and I jumped. Luckily the blade wasn't on my neck at the time...but I didn't go back for a long time because of this. Last week I decided to shave my head clean, and took a trip back to The Barber Sharp to try it out again. Was greeted by Kelly and offered a cold can of PBR, which helped because I was nervous about the shave. The shave was done well, however there were some spots that could have been closer to the scalp so I had to do some maneuvering once I got home. I'd definitely go back and be more meticulous next time. The guy shaving my head didn't seem to know the answers to my questions about maintenance, but Google did a good job with that..so no big deal. Recommended for a standard haircut for sure! Nice little spot in NE. read more

First off, let me start my saying that I have VERY difficult hair to work with. It's very thick and grows straight out and poofy. I had searched for months to find a barbershop that could work with my hair, was reasonable priced, and had a great atmosphere. The Barber Sharp is the jackpot! I had my hair cut here for 7 - 8 months before I left MSP, and I get my hair cut every 2 - 3 weeks. I've had various people do it, and all were more than up to the task. They're all very friendly and welcoming. The vibe is very modern and hipster, but somehow still retains a hint of that classic barbershop feel. All in all, a great place to get your hair cut. A beer as soon as you sit down? Come on! You can't beat that! read more

This was one of the worst haircut experiences I've ever had. First off, the "equality" sticker on the window is deceiving. I was greeted to the back of the shop by a tall, tattooed lanky guy in a hat. He asked how I'd like my haircut so I explained to him what I wanted. Apparently, a friend of his (or a customer - I'm honestly not sure who he was) was also back there and they proceeded into a really thick conversation about politics, the presidential picks, local ethnic communities, and several other racist and supremest-type topics. As I'm sitting there listening to their justifications for supporting a candidate who is a mockery to our history as a country, I also had to endure their tirades on how "White America" is getting a bad rap and that they shouldn't have to defend "being white" and if they do, they'll have to "beat someone down." Now, people are entitled to their opinions and should vote for whomever they like but I came in to get a haircut, plain and simple. He never once talked to me and by the time I was ready to jump out of the chair and walk out, he had already started cutting my hair. He did nothing that I asked for and with tip, I paid $27 for a really crappy haircut. I didn't have to tip, but I always tip my barbers $5 regardless. I've been in Minneapolis for 3 months and I've never encountered such blatant racism in my entire life. As a gay, Latino male who just wanted/needed a haircut on a Saturday afternoon, I got way more than I bargained for. I will NEVER return to this establishment. read more

The Barber Sharp - Barbers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I thought this place was awesome. At first it looked like a small, 2 chair operation...but the place has an ass on it with a lot more chairs. I can imagine these will come in handy as The Barber Sharp grows in popularity. My hair and beard trim was great. The price was reasonable enough that I didn't feel bad walking out having purchased some beard oil on top of the service. It might sound corny, but names are a big deal to me. When you tell a story, especially in the business world, if you use someone's name instead of "this guy that I'm talking to you about" that person becomes much more real and not just an anecdote. Kelly and John used my name at each opportunity they had as if they knew I'd be back and it'd be important for them to remember me as a real person. I liked that. As I'm growing my beard out for this first time this winter I plan on making this place my go-to. read more

Asked for a flat top, and got my head unevenly shaved. "It'll grow in," is unacceptable. Think I'll find another spot.

I had gotten a couple decent hair cuts here but the last time I came I received the worst hair cut i ever ever had. the barber never touches scissors and made my bangs look like they were cut by a five year old. he then shaved a weird arc in the back. half way through my haircut he made a joke woth anithwr barber about how he forgot to put an apron on some one and didnt realize until he was halfway through the haircut. read more

Cool vibe, nice people, no pretentious bs, and appreciate the beer. Recommended by a friend. Had a cut by the owner, likely won't be back. The details: brought in a picture of my previous side part cut with front and side pictures. I was not expecting an exact duplication, but just a good, basic, skilled clean cut. Somehow I walked out with one side of my head far longer than the other side. They turn you away from the mirror while they cut you, so you can't really see what is going on. Even when she showed me before I left, and it looked fine due to the product she put in. Once I washed my hair at home, I saw how incredibly uneven my hair was. The right side of my head is an inch longer than the left side. It only looks worse as it is growing out. Pretty disappointed. Minor gripe:the entire time I was in the chair, the owner was dealing with scheduling mishaps by her staff. Party of eight guys were coming in the next morning for shaves for a wedding, and had called twice to confirm. That seemed to be news to both her and another barber who claimed they weren't in their scheduling book. Not really my problem as a customer, but it gives me pause. I've had some friends get a cut by other barbers at the place, and they had nice cuts, so perhaps the other barber have some serious skills. read more
