I'm extremely disappointed with the experience my brother and I had at this barbershop. This was his first haircut in a while, and we gave very clear instructions before the cut began: taper the back, keep the hair long on top, and keep the area around the ears soft to help conceal existing scars. Unfortunately, those instructions were not followed. Instead of a taper, the haircut turned into a high fade that left the top resembling a mohawk and made the scar near his ear significantly more visible. About halfway through the service, the barber acknowledged that she had cut too deeply. Her response at that point was that "the scar needs sun exposure," which was surprising and concerning to hear. Particularly on darker skin, scars generally benefit from careful protection from sun exposure to help avoid further discoloration or potential keloid formation. What made the experience more frustrating was the lack of accountability afterward. Even after we explained our concerns, there was no meaningful apology--only comments that she "just didn't know." Despite the mistake and the significant deviation from the requested style, we were still charged full price. Everyone makes mistakes, but professionalism is shown in how those mistakes are handled. In this case, there was little acknowledgment of the issue and no effort to remedy the situation, particularly given the sensitivity surrounding the scars and the emotional impact of having them made more visible. Based on this experience, I would personally hesitate to recommend this shop for people with textured hair, people of color, or for those who require careful attention around scars or other sensitive areas. Greater training, experience with diverse hair types, and a willingness to listen carefully to clients would go a long way toward improving the service. read more

Great haircut from Gabriella on my first visit! The shop is very clean, all of the barbers were very friendly and helpful. Thanks for the quick and professional service Gabriella! read more

Customer service was amazing and the atmosphere was nice. However, I give this a three because the "barber" who cut my hair did not do a great job. I asked for a a fade that's almost skin because i have long hair. End product was still with relatively short hair that's uneven. Additionally, the styles decided to wash my hair with extremely hot water. I also got a wax, and thank goodness for their coworker who was educating them, because they didn't know how to do it. I just don't understand why would offer a service that they never done. That made me quite nervous. During the wax I had strands of wax all over my face. Overall, probably would highly avoid or call ahead to see who are the seasoned employees read more

Wow I really enjoyed my appointment very professional and great customer service. Great haircut just an amazing business try it and you won't regret it. read more

It's a great place! Full service barbershop so make sure you get the hot towel and wash with scalp massage!! I've been a few times and with different barberettes each time and they have all been really good! read more

Recently switched to this barber shop and I couldn't be happier. $25 for a clipper cut with straight razor lineup + shampoo and conditioner wash. They offer other services too. Loft-like design with a grungy finish, like of wood and cast iron finishings. Gentlemanly, and worth the visit. Oh yeah, and they usually offer a beer, soda or water while you wait or get serviced. Cheers! read more

I was in KC recently visiting my dad. He looks sharper than ever. I asked who was cutting he his and he told me about Lavyne who har has been going to for about a year. My dad doesn't write yelp reviews so I am covering this for him. She has really been good to him as a friend as well as keeping him trimmed up. I had the opportunity to meet her. The shop is a super cool unique place that makes a haircut about the experience. The service is impeccable (I know my 80 ish father) can be a curmudgeon and isn't easy to please. Thank you Lavyne for keeping Dad well groomed ! read more

2 things: 1. I was greeted with a beer. 2. See number 1. I called at 5:55 to see if they could get me in. I had a wedding to go to and was traveling. This was my only chance. Lacey said yes, I hopped in my Uber and got there. Great haircut, conversation, personality. You will not find a better way to spend $25. Cut, shampoo, massage, straight razor and a boot out the door in 60 minutes. Sign. Me. Up. read more

Booked online with Christine. Great cut and great convo. Easy to book and nice atmosphere. I'll definitely be back.

Was referred to see Lavyne from a friend. I believe you can book online, but I recommend using the Vagaro app. Very open and clean environment. The brick walls and design reminds me of a loft in the crossroads area. Free water, pop, and beer while you wait. Also has about three large TV's mounted on the wall, that were playing sports and fishing. Parking is a little limited, but I went over lunch and there were open spots in front, the alley, and around the back (assume it isn't too bad after 5pm either). I just got a standard men's haircut, but came with a quick rinse beforehand, a scalp massage shampoo/conditioner after the cut, then a straight razor along the back of the neck at the end. I'm always tentative trying a new barber, but for $25 I don't think you can get a better cut. I would definitely recommend giving it a try! read more

Best. Haircut. Ever. Boys, this is the place for you. From its industrial rustic design to the quiet contemplative ambience to the outstanding cuts and shaves, this is the place for you! Just wanna shave? No probs. That includes a scalp massage too. Add a straight razor shape, which includes a face massage, well that's what I'm talking about! I consider it a form of therapy. A great place to be! Not sure about the massages? Grow up and leave there with a better attitude! read more

I read a few reviews on here, made the appointment for next available person via website. I think it was Lacey? Greeting was awkward... the conversation more awkward and worst of all the clean up was sloppy, not used to such carelessness and left feeling I just paid got an overpriced haircut that looks like it still needs more refinement. this just means I will have to continue to searchhhhh sigh read more

Outstanding service each time I have gone. Awesome set up when waiting and wide selections of drinks before or after. If you are new or old to KC this should be your place for hair cuts or beard trims. read more

Debbie is the bomb dot com. She's hilarious and she did an awesome job on my hair. I booked an appointment online and was in her chair 45 minutes later. The space is really neat very clean. read more

I've gotten most of my haircuts the last ~2y here. Linda always does a great job. The place is always clean. They're always following whatever the mask mandate is any given month. They offer you a beer, pop, or coffee while you wait. -- Just in case they read this I would like to say Boulevard makes a seltzer called Quirk and it would look great in your mini fridge ;) read more

5 star all the way. Quality service, warm relaxing atmosphere, great price. Mica provided a cut that got me compliments for weeks afterwards. Never happen before. She's a first rate barber, highly recommend. read more

Staff is excellent, complementary beer, water, and soda when you walk in, always something interesting on the TV. I always book appointments with Debbie and every cut I've had has been nothing short of excellent. read more

Lacey Jones just gave me the best haircut of my life at The Barberette!!! She is highly talented and a true professional who takes pride in her work. I've never felt like my stylist cared as much about making everything perfect as Lacey just made me feel today. I honestly couldn't of had a better experience and she has a customer for life as long as she is around!!! read more

The decor was perfect. Very nice setup. They offered me a beer while I waited. That was beyond awesome. The hair cutter ladies were super nice. During the hair wash I could have fallen asleep. The haircut was a little more than I would have liked to spend $25 not including tip. I liked the haircut. One thing I didn't like was they Point you to the TVs while cutting you which is great but you can't see what they are doing. I asked her to spin me around cut my hair infront of the mirror. I wasn't looking for any surprises. Good Hair cuts required 2 way communication. They honored my request. If I lived in KC this would be my spot. read more
