Made an appointment, waited past the appointment no one said anything, went to ask the people at the desk about the appointment, rudely got told it'll be longer, and then the person cutting my hair was so nervous as it seemed it was her first time cutting hair but highly disappointed read more

I've been to this shop 5 times and the quality of the cut has been great. Nice place and relaxing to wait for your stylist . I have been working with Paige the last few times and she is great! She is very efficient, listens to my preferences, is friendly and fun to talk to. read more

I recently had Mary and Rey cut my hair. Service was phenomenal. highly recommended. 10/10. the aura and energy in the environment was very relaxing as well! read more

My first time,and my last! Iwas there when they opened, first one in. The lady took me back to get started. In 10 minutes while cutting hair,asked me 1 question, and never smiled. Full service? When finished with haircut, said they offered a hair wash. I said no because I was in no mood to be with her any longer. Not satisfied. read more

Today, I had my first appointment at this establishment with Zer who took excellent care of me. She was very kind, skilled, and listened very carefully to my requests, thus delivering an excellent mid/high straight razor fade with a hard part and beard trim+cleanup. The service included a hair wash after the cut, with a hot towel treatment and percussive shoulder massage at the end. Zer was appropriately conversational, letting me drive out exchanges at a pace comfortable to me, and checked in throughout the cut as needed to ask me about any details I had left out during our consultation. I will certainly be returning to see Zer, and look forward to my next straight razor fade. Thank you, Zer! read more

I came in with hair past my shoulders. I asked for 4 inches off the top and to shave the cowlicks on the back part of my head and fade the bottom 1/3 of my sides the woman looked like she understood. FIRST CUT she ran the shaver up the whole backside of my head disregarding everything i just told her ruining about a year of hair progress. Fast forward 5 minutes and i have an inch of hair left and look like im heading to boot camp. I really wish i never stepped foot in this place because now my coworkers are bullying me because i look like a bald headed 14 year old boy. Im definately not getting laid for the next 3 months read more

I've been coming here on and off for about a year and a half, guess I can finally write a review. Being new to Wausau and not knowing many of the hair professionals and barbershops in the area I look for the most convenient one. When my car is being serviced I walk over and get a haircut. This has worked very well in the past, now you need a appointment or the wait can be hours! The sad part is that when you do call for that appointment, there are times during business hours that no one answers and sometimes they even hang up once hey answer. I've had this experience today actually, from 11:48 am to 12:10 I called 7 times to be disconnected or hung up on. Finally after getting through I schedule a appointment and said nothing to no one. Direct communication of a problem like this is probably counter productive to my haircut outcome. Having said this, what is sad is that the haircuts are of good quality and priced very well. After today I search for another barber, if you need a haircut and have the patience of a saint this place maybe for you. For everyone else, try any other option including the do it yourself home kit from late night tv. read more

The Barbershop - Waiting room is cool, and if you don't call ahead to make an appointment you may be spending an hour there :( - Men's Hair Salons Near Me - Wausau, Wisconsin

LOVED IT! Not one to give out free 5 star reviews. This peace earned it! I'm from Ohio and was just passing through when I found this place. Not sure who the people below went to, but Sammy Jo gave me an AMAZING fade, the hot towel treatment, shampoo, and styled it super clean. Great atmosphere. They had an 86 Mets 30 for 30 playing in the booth, comfortable chairs, and engaged conversation (not overwhelming, let me sit and enjoy the process quietly at times too!). I will be coming here every time I'm in the area. read more

Always friendly and good haircuts, appointments are recommended as they are pretty busy but they do take walk ins as timely as possible. Recommended read more

Sorry to say that my son had the worst haircut of his life. He asked for a clean up around the edges and came out with 1 1/2" off the top. It's not what he asked for. Needless to say he's not going back. They're not the only shop in town. Also the top is shorter than the back, absolutely terrible. read more

See all

Extremely disappointed to say the least. Called a day prior and made an appointment for my 4 year old son & stressed to them that he has autism and it's important to me that we get in at the time of our appointment. When we showed up for the appointment, we waited 25 minutes. When I asked the receptionist (who looked about 14) she stared blankly at me for about 3 minutes straight and said "I don't know maybe we can fit you in". We had been sitting watching other people file in and out for 25 minutes and no one said a thing... WITH an appointment! Super unprofessional. I will not be returning, ever. read more

First of all the Barbershop has an amazing atmosphere, there are always some great tunes playing and everyone on the staff team is super nice and friendly. When it comes to the actual haircut, it's a 5/5 star experience, I would highly recommend Travis as your stylist, he is a master at his craft and he most certainly won't disappoint!! read more

attentive to details, fast, and very courteous. My son and I had our hair cut by Zer.. she will be our go-to going forward. Haircuts look great on both of us. read more

Great experience! I was in town for a conference and in dire need of a haircut. I walked in on a Thursday morning and while the salon was bustling, I couldn't even sip the complimentary coffee before my name was called. Sarah was extremely professional and cordial, asked the right questions of a first-time client and i was in and out, looking great, in less than 20 minutes. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the shampoo treatment and massage. Would come back here again next time in Wausau! read more

Great experience, I happened to be in this RANDOM part of Wisconsin for a business trip. I drove from Steven's Point, 33 miles to get the experience in the description and they did not disappoint. I'll be back! Leave your Giants hat at home, these are hard core Brewer fans! ;) read more

If you have long hair I could not recommend The Barbershop!,I told my stylist several times not to cut too much off the back.I showed her what I wanted trimmed however,she cut too much off.Two plus months of hair on the floor .they may do a good job on buzz cuts but not longer hair read more

Asked them to clean the edges of my beard... ended up with a douche bag pencil thin wigger beard. Few hpurs later noticed a skin rash appear where they used the warm towel on my face. Almost seems as if it was a reused dirty towel that transfered bacteria from someone elses face to mine. Stay away. read more

Not sure if this will help our favorite, friendly and hard-working Mrs. Zer, but it is important to give a shout out that she more than maximizes on the economical price of the hair styling service offered. Our family consistently asks for her, and she has been a favorite with both our kids. As to making appointments, a worker is worth his or her wages, and stylists like Zer SHOULD expect scheduled appointments. By the same token, when expecting MORE than your money's worth, I, were I a walk-in customer SHOULD expect to wait long for the kind and attentive, excellent experience our favorite stylist consistently gives us. Were she ever to branch out on her own, she could still count on us to come to her! Thanks, Barbershop, for your mindfulness to hire great folks like Zer. read more

They don't care about new customers if your a walk in. They'll let you sit in there waiting room for hour plus not even saying anything to you. Don't waste your time looks nice inside but thats all thats nice. read more

I had an appointment today for 1:10 in the afternoon and at 1:35 I still was waiting. Nobody told me why so I walked out and will never go there again. read more

Great experience and hair cut. Love my Barber to death, she's such a sweetheart (Laura). Highly recommended....!!!

Terrible place to get a haircut. Very disorganized. Signed in and went to the men's room for less than 2 mins. Supposedly name was called. Sat down and waited 1/2 + hours before I decided maybe I was missed. I was told to come back 2 hours later as there were no open spots. In the past I've waited way beyond my appointment time because other's were late to their appointment and no apology or acknowledgement that taking someone who missed their appointment over my waiting. Then to top all this off if I've had a haircut the stylist did not do all that is promised in their haircut to do list. JUST AN AWFUL PLACE. YOUR NUTS TO GO THERE!!!!!!!! read more

Have been going here for 3 years now, and today was the last visit. You cannot get the same haircut twice. They do not cut hair properly. They cannot make sideburns even. They spend too much time standing behind the counter and taking breaks when people are waiting. They do not listen to what you want. There is an odd guy there that cuts hair, but only if he wants the customer. Otherwise he will "busy" himself until someone takes the next person on the list. I went back because I did get a couple of good cuts, but then that person isn't there the next time. Today an Asian woman gave me a clipper cut. She must have thought she was using a weed whacker. I have a cut on my head and neck, and a headache that lasted for hours. The customers are weird, too. Either they sit there and stare at you, or if they have little kids, they let their kids run all over the place. Wausau has several other great places for a haircut. I don't understand the hype over The Barber Shop. read more

This place used to be my go-to place for a haircut. But it won't be anymore. I've always walked in without any problem. The usual wait was 20 to 30 minutes. Went in at 2:15 pm today (12/18/17) and was told it'd be 6 pm. I walked out and won't be back. When the window says walk-ins anytime, don't book the schedule solid with appointments. Just a thought. read more

First the lady told me it will take 30 minutes before i get my haircut. Then i waited an hour and a half before i finally started. When i finally got my haircut, they messed it up and cut it wrong. Definitely not satisfied with the customer service. read more

I have been going here for almost 3 years now, always go In and get a great hair cut from Sarah. The place is clean, the people are friendly and you get the best value for your money with out sacrificing for a bad hair cut. Would recommend any guys looking to get a good hair cut to go and see Sarah!! read more

The Barbershop is a wonderful place to get a haircut. From the prompt greeting at the door to the happy stylists, you are sure to get a great experience. I have tried several different styles and had both recommendations for products as well as help attaining my goal for that style. I recommend an appointment before you walk in because this place is BUSY and very popular. Also noticed they are good with accommodating children. PRICE IS BEST. Included is a cut, shampoo, style, hot towel, and back massage for 13.00. I will not go anywhere else in town. read more

Usually a great experience, as they are quick and efficient. You can expect to wait 30 minutes unless you have an appointment scheduled ahead of time. Beware of the younger blonde because she cut hair my hair too short and was uneven when I got home. NOT Sarah but the other one. It's pretty hard to mess up my hair. My typical is a number 2 on the sides and I leave more length on top. I think it is a standard enough haircut and have never been disappointed before. I'm not even picky but she just did a bad job. She might of had an off day because she wasn't nice and seemed rushed. Beyond this one experience, I've had good times and good conversations. read more

Emily did a great job. She was fast and pleasant. Convenient location, price is AWESOME!. I'll be back.
