My son went to get a haircut yesterday. He had an appointment and was on time. A coworker highly recommended the Moose (we are from Texas so trying to find / discover a new place is a real treat), he even made an appointment for him. Such a shame.... my son said the facility is real nice and close to his high rise. He walked in and not one person acknowledged or said a single word to him. He asked where to check in and they just pointed for him to have a seat. Five minutes later another customer walked in he was acknowledged and greeted and taken back immediately. My son waited for a long time. When the barber finally came to get him, no greeting or acknowledgment from him what so ever. The year is 2026 correct or did we go back in time? A statement on your website says "no BS" well I beg to differ. My son has never felt more uncomfortable or alienated before. It was a crash course for him about what you need to "look like" in order to get service. We are from Texas so southern hospitality is a main staple in our households. Needless to say he will NOT recommend or come back. read more

Short and sweet review to shout out the team at The Moose! My husband has been coming here for almost two years, and finally feels like he has a barber who understands how to cut his hair. Savannah consistently takes great care of him. I've even tagged along once or twice while we were out running errands, and the vibes inside are rustic and cool. The location is basically just a little house on Music Row, and the decor is all on-point with the outdoorsy, moose theme. There's even free street parking, which is such a rarity in Nashville these days that it's worth calling out. If you (or your man) is in need of a solid haircut, I can't recommend The Moose enough! read more

Great ambiance in the shop. I've been here off and on when in Nashville and it's a great value. Good customer service and a drink on the house always helps! read more

I did not have a good experience but the owner is a good guy and made it right and that is why I gave 3 stars and not 1. So I just moved to Nashville and I am looking for a new barber and I found this place and I was really excited to try this place out. Unfortunately I did not get a good haircut or bread trim. My appt was at 345 and I showed up early. Her appt before me ran 20 mins late. And she rushed through my hair cut and beard. One thing I was really looking forward to was the scalp massage and hair wash. She literally got my hair wet put and little soap and then rinsed my hair. It was maybe a minute long. The water wasn't even warm. You could tell she was trying to get me out. My beard wasn't lined up correctly and the razor shave was really poorly done. My neck was not smooth. I currently am recovering from a total shoulder replacement so I go to the barber to keep my beard clean and nice so when she almost ruined my beard that was really annoying. The owner fit me the next day to fix her mistakes which was great and I am sure this is a great place and I just caught her on a bad day and I am not gonna say her name but I don't know if I'll be back. read more

I've had Clayte do my hair multiple times and every single time he does amazing! I've been to a ton of other places in the area and by far I am happiest with this place. The vibe there is awesome as well. It's primarily a place for men but they are truly welcoming to everyone. 10/10 fully recommend. The price is always worth it!!! read more

an absolute 10/10. Jess did a fantastic job and went above and beyond for a simple buzz. Josie (the dog) is a very friendly employee.

First time here! Was greeted by a wonderful young lady named Gemma. Was offered beer, whiskey or soda. I picked a cold IPA and went back to the chair. Had a full head and face straight razor shave. I was so relaxed with the hot and cold towels I almost fell asleep. Gemma was fantastic and look forward to my next visit with her. read more

Chris, new guy, trimmed my beard and did a great job! Will be back! Highly recommend.

Best place in town. Jason did an amazing job. Great environment. Great location. Awesome service. Can't wait to come back.

First time I've ever had my beard shaped up by a professional. Got home and checked out my new face. Pretty disappointed. My mustache was trimmed too high on one side and I had whiskers drooping down on the other side of my lip. She missed spots in various places all over. Good thing I got a free beer and shot or I'd really be pissed. Not ever going back. I was under the impression that this place was legit. Not so much. read more

Came to Nashville for a wedding. All the guys came here for a shave and a cut. My husband's beard was totally crooked. Def not worth the money that the groom paid for his guys. read more

I got a great cut from Brandon first and foremost. Besides the great cut and beard trim-- the shop is clean, stylish, and your offered a complimentary alcoholic beverage of your choice. I left feeling great. That's all you can ask for in a barber shop/salon. read more

The Moose Music Row - Fresh cut - Barbers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I had such a great experience at The Moose. I was on a work trip from out of town and really needed a cut. I didn't have an appointment but they were able to get me in as a walk-in. Tami Lee was my barber. She was great to talk to, worked with me on what I wanted for my hair(High fade, slight trim on longer hair up top, and hair shampoo). The vibe in the waiting area was awesome, with tons of instruments and cool things to look at. I couldn't recommend the place more. read more

Walked in right when they opened hoping to get some questions answered about the local products they carry. We waited for about 30 minutes and someone had walked by twice without saying anything to us. Not sure why but even saying "I'll be with you guys -" would have been fine but we were ignored. read more

I was very fortunate to have gotten a hair cut here and thanks to the April, the owner, who was kind enough to accept my (pending) appointment even though there was glitch in the system. She squeezed me in and gave me a great cut. Cool place to boot. read more

Overrated, overpriced, no client value. Below is an e-mail I sent April, owner, and stylist that I saw this past week. I should make note that I have not received a response from her; however, the salon later contacted me (via text) for feedback. From that, I also have not received a response. In my e-mail to April, I mention leaving the salon with a wet head. I'll post a picture for reference. I'll say that if I were an owner/stylist, I would be embarrassed to let my client leave in the shape I left The Moose. E-mail to April: April, You cut my hair just a little while ago. I was so excited to try out The Moose, but sad to say that I left very disappointed. I didn't realize it until I left, but my hair was still so wet that it was dripping down onto my shirt, leaving a stain from the product you used in my hair. You seemed quiet and reserved in the moment, but looking back, I don't feel as though I was valued as a client. My visit was extremely rushed and impersonal. I'm not one who typically e-mails when disappointed by service, but I do want to let you know my impression. read more

The Moose Music Row - I left my only visit at The Moose with a very wet head. I touched the back of my head, and came away with a wet, gooey hand. - Barbers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

The Shave That Time Forgot -or- Don't 'Sweeney Todd' me!! I called around 11:30AM to make an appointment for a classic straight razor shave, they set me up with an appointment at 1:00PM that day (Wednesday 8/12/15). The area in which the place is located doesn't really do justice to the business itself. So don't judge the business by the area. If you park out behind the business make sure to park on the LEFT side. The right side is reserved for another business, and they (the other businesses) will not hesitate to have you towed. Walking in you feel like you have stepped back in time, in the best way. After telling them my name and that I had an appointment, they pointed to the wall behind the front desk which had a list of various high end whisk(e)ys, and asked "What would you like?". Almost immediately after sitting down in a comfortable leather chair I was handed my glass of Gentleman Jack on the rocks. (They do also have water, beer and, I believe, soda) I waited for only a few minutes before my barber (Kevin) introduced himself. Very nice guy, very cordial. Just the right amount of pleasant conversation. The shave itself was nothing short of excellent. For those who have never experienced a classic straight razor shave, its less of a service and more of a full blown experience. From the lemon essence, hot lathered shaving cream and hot towels, to the bracing burn (or no burn, YOUR CHOICE!) of the aftershave and refreshing ice cold towels, everything works together and builds each layer of the experience upon itself to give you a shave that you will never forget. While the price ($65 plus tip) makes this more of a special occasion treat than a regular thing, it is more than worth the price. As I was walking back to the counter to pay I saw the resident chocolate lab (Titan) walking around like he owns the place and without a care in the world. While I cannot comment on the other services offered at The Moose, I CAN say that if they are even close to the level of service and quality that I received, then you owe it to yourself to visit. You will not be disappointed. P.S. While I was in the middle of writing this review I received a text message from the business thanking me for my business and asking if all was well with my appointment yesterday. That, to me, was a nice touch. read more

The Moose Music Row - A complimentary tasty beverage while you wait. - Barbers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This place was great! The ultimate hair cut spot for men. Very clean and super friendly. Heather was the best. She took amazing care of me and gave me a great haircut. read more

Worth every penny! This place is top notch and Johnny is the best craftsman I've experienced so far in my 30+ years of getting my hairs cut. I have to be honest I was a bit hesitant going here for my first time. This is usually the case when finding a new barber or hairstylist. It's similar to finding a good mechanic. When you find a good one you want have them for life and tell everyone about your new secret weapon. Beyond trying out someone and somewhere new, I also had some reservations because the higher price point and the fact that I was getting my beard trimmed up (which I've been growing for 7 months now). I was looking for someone who would ask the right questions, personalize their approach, and not just give the same hair cut,trim or, hack job that they give everyone else. I decided to book with Johnny because I figured I'd be in good hands when i saw that he was rocking a beard as well ( have you seen it? Well done good sir!) The great communication started with the online booking where I was prompted with a question and given the opportunity to share note with my barber. I thought to myself, well, "I'll give this a go but they probably don't even read them." I was wrong. Upon meeting Johnny and sitting in his chair, he addressed my comments immediately and i was immediately set at ease. I could go on and on about all the little and important details of my experience but I've rambled enough. Johnny is the real deal. The moose is top notch. My beard looks outstanding and better than I could've hoped for. My haircut (wasn't even my focus or concern) is probably the best I've ever had. Thank You Johnny. Thank You Moose. If you're still reading and considering giving them a try. It's time to pull the trigger. You'll be glad you did. read more

Best haircut think I've ever experienced! Moved from SF to Nash and Johnny made me feel, not only at home at the moose, but like a local. Great spot for all fellas for sure.... and Mosdef will be coming back for as long as I can. Thanks Johnny and Taylor!!!! Y'all rule! read more

It's been quite a while since I wrote a review for The Moose so I'd thought I'd update it. If you are a guy looking for an amazing experience and cut and you read no further, know this, GO HERE! It's not hard to explain what to like about The Moose. They are a high end barber, they cater exclusively to men, all the barbers are gorgeous women, they have leather chairs in their lounge, they offer you a complimentary adult beverage, they have a cigar lounge and poker room, every barber chair has its own tv, and I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting! I've been a client of Laural Deh since I first sat in get chair. If you're like me then finding "that barber" is important to you. I'll miss her when I leave Nashville. Do yourself a favor and spend the $$$ and go here at least once. read more

What can I say? From start to finish I was impressed! Tami Lee, what an amazing g artist, great eye, and steady hand. Will drive 3.5 hours to now start using her on a bi-weekly! What an amazing spot. I felt at home, comfortable but mostly warm. I need a break from the cold, and the Jack and Coke helped more than you will know. So happy! Thank you! read more

Visiting from out of town, and needed a hair cut. Very cool location and space, very inviting and comfortable. Staff was super friendly, and I saw Eric for my haircut. He was so, so nice, but am giving my visit 2 stars because well...he simply didn't listen to what I asked for. I went in and asked for a skin fade. This is want I got. I suppose if I lived in Nashville I'd try this place again potentially, because I really wanted a good experience. Instead, I'm leaving disappointed and paid $50 for a cut that looks like how my hair normally looks after 3-4 days of growth. He did style the top great though, and gave me helpful tips for achieving more volume for my pomp. Overall--an okay visit but not what I was hoping for. read more

***THIS IS THE LAST REVIEW YOU WILL EVER NEED*** if you are looking for a Barber in Nashville... I've been to 4 different barbers in the last 6 months and NONE of them touched the level of service and prestige that you will get at the Moose! These other barbers in Nashville would all rush through your appointment, or seem disinterested, or do a poor job, or skip services that you already you paid for, charge you extra for stuff you didn't ask for, etc... BUT here is what I got when I came to the Moose Grooming Lounge on Music Row... The owner, April, was so welcoming and professional when she took my appointment. When I got there, the receptionist was super sweet and offered me a drink - whiskey on the rocks of course! I booked a scalp massage treatment (highly recommended) and Mercedes did an absolutely amazing job! Then she took me to meet Eric the Barber, I showed him a picture of what I wanted, and he took it from there! We had a great conversation, and when he was all finished, I can say that he listened to every detail I wanted and executed perfectly! You cannot find a better experience anywhere in Nashville - GUARANTEED! read more

Wow What a place. Don't think I've been as relaxed as I was after my first straight edge shave. This is a real gem in Nashville. But you must book in advance as it's cozy and busy with regulars. The shave was the epitome of perfection and mythology down to the steamy towel and the face ointments. Lovely people working there too. Accommodating as can be. The must have great management and owners who've been doing this for some time. read more

Johnny is a fire ass barber with a lot of Clout in the Skin Fade department! Definitely recommend him to all of the Sav's out there looking to get a fire line up! read more

Seriously? A#1, Creme de la creme. Tops. Bestest. Hostest with the mostest. I am not an easy client. I am already, naturally, really good looking. So to improve upon that is no easy task. Laurel, my girl, knew this the first time we met and she still struggles with it to this day. Still, she marches on and does a great job of making better that which is near impossible to improve upon. When I leave Moose Men's, I look and feel more beautiful than ever. Every time. read more

I've been to just about all of the "high end" barbershops around Nashville over the past 5 years and somehow never stopped by The Moose until last week. Hands down the best haircut I've ever had. Couldn't have been more pleased! read more

My boyfriend has been on the hunt for an awesome haircut and I saw the great reviews so he decided to give it a try. I was a little skeptical at first, because of the heavy emphasis on drinks. My fear was that the focus would be too much on beverages and not enough on a quality haircut but I was wrong. Upon arrival you are asked what you would like to drink. The waiting room is very cozy almost like a living room or man cave feel. Kevin was his stylist/barber. Usually I'm the hair consultant but we liked Kevin's hair so we went with that. The end result was an undercut: longer on top and very low back and sides. So ladies it is girlfriend approved and I would definitely recommend Kevin! read more

Moose on Music Row is freakin great! Always makes my day walking in and seeing Taylor at the front to welcome me in with a cold beer or a glass of scotch. Rebecca is amazing! Always super chill and cuts the hair perfectly. If there was anything I would change, I'd make it where I can have a drink with the staff. Cheers! read more

I have been having my hair cut at Moosehead by April for close to a year and I really like the way she cuts my hair and offers tips on taking care of my hair between trips. With other barbers, I always had an issue where the hair on the side of my head would not lay down flat. Now I do not have that problem; April does a great job. Moosehead does not smell or look like a typical salon and it is geared for the men folk. HD TVs and satellite TV all tuned to sports or whatever you want to watch. Plus, your choice of drinks. They offer other services I have yet to try; one being smoking cigars. Moosehead is located conveniently near Vanderbilt on Music Row with parking on 17th Ave S or behind the building. If you are not happy with the rush-rush of your typical barber shop and you want to be spoiled a little, you should try Moosehead. Finally, I would suggest making an appointment. read more

This place is great. When i moved to Nashville I tried to find a place like this. In Dallas there were a few and it is an establishment tailored for men. What makes it even better is the great customer service and fantastic hair stylings of April. read more

This place is what it feels like for a man to be pampered. The basic haircut comes with a hot towel treatment, neck shave, and a scalp massage...a perfect start to a cut. April is a pro and the atmosphere is laid back as it should be for a modern day barbershop... Give them a try...you'll be glad you did... read more

First timer here. I am in town for a conference and decided to get my hairs cut. Checked yelp and decided on this place. I called to make an appointment and was able to get in that day. I was greeted as i walked in and offered an adult beverage of my choice. I chose an amber ale. Sat down for a few minutes as i was a bit early for my appointment. Eric was my barber and he called me and we began. He sat me down in the chair and asked me what i was looking to be done with my hair. After that it was hot towel and shampoo time. Then back to the chair for the cut. Then back to the basin for a final rinse. Then back to the chair for the final styling and tips to maintain the cut. Eric was informative and very easy to talk to. Thanks again. If i am ever back in Nashville i will definitely go here again. read more

The Moose Music Row - Pretty cool in the lounge area. - Barbers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

If you can find the place - I searched for thirty minutes, hence the missing star- you will undoubtedly love every moment. The product: (disclaimer, as with all great products, the experience is more than "the product, i.e., the haircut, and Moosehead is no exception, as the ambiance was what made this place great): regardless, the hair stylists are meticulous, striving to pay heed to the small things that Fantastic Sam's can't or doesn't. The entire process lasted nearly an hour, and I left feeling that (a) I received a great value and (b) refreshed and groomed impeccably. Ambiance: this place has a lot of it. It features leather, overstuffed chairs, dark wood flooring, a humidor stocked with cigars, several televisions tuned into ESPN and a moose with a clever necktie. An Abercrombie-catalogue-like, masculine spa. Most salient, the haircut is amazing. Two shampoos, a scalp massage with mint tree-oil, and a straight edge razor for pesky neck hair. Pampered experience. If there was a 4.5 stars, this place would merit it. As I said prior, however, it's very hard to find. It's located in a converted apartment-complex, with several other hairstylists; several signs adorn the building, but the Moosehead is the least-likely to be noticed; the door -which was closed - had but a single number (5), with no sign or "Moosehead lettering." For how much $$ they have manifestly put into the interior, I don't understand the lack of external advertising. Nonetheless, and as set forth above, the place is great. I will surely go back. read more

I moved to Nashville Labor Day weekend and I've struggled to find a place to get a good haircut. I've tried Pioneer and Scouts and was severely disappointed. I called and made an appointment on Friday morning and Rebecca had an opening. Boy did I hit the jackpot with her!!! Absolutely terrific haircut and a really nice person to say the least! I showed her a few pictures and she did exactly what I was hoping for. I got a leading edge haircut but retained a very professional look. When you walk in they greet you right away and offer you a drink. It's a very relaxed environment that makes waiting very comfortable. I have finally found my place and Rebecca will be cutting my hair from now on. read more

In Nashville for a few months from Los Angeles and was in need of a haircut. Someone told me about this place and I made an appointment with Eric and got a great haircut. Friendly environment great haircut what more can you ask for. read more

By far one of the most unique, upscale men's haircutting establishments I've visited. I stopped in traveling for work and it's truly an experience. It's a residence, that's been re-purposed beautifully for an amazing experience. Move over ladies, the men are coming in to be pampered! From the decor, to the selection of bourbons and beers, you leave with a sense of relaxation. Shampoo, hot towel, cut, then the straight razor. The experience is relaxing, the price is reasonable and the staff is very pleasant. If you've ever experienced the upscale, gentlemen's cut, go here for sure. read more

Excellent beard trim from my boy Johnny. Took time to talk through what I was looking for and delivered. Solid place super tight vibe-- highly suggest. read more

Came here with a Bachelor's Party and had a great time. We had the man cave in the basement to hang out, drink and smoke cigars. Perfect size for 10 or fewer people. We all appreciated the staff's courteous, professional service and would highly recommend this place to others. Get the scalp therapy upgrade, it's a nice touch. read more
