Specializing in classic grooming services, Jacks offers expertly crafted manicure and pedicure services, among others, in a welcoming. friendly, and relaxing environment. After being awarded the Triad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last year, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, I decided that it would be appropriate this year to go back to this restaurant and write a follow-up review, since my initial review was one of my reviews that contributed to me obtaining this highly esteemed Award. Today, after having made an appointment for 2:00pm, I revisited Jacks, and since my birthday is slowly approaching, I decided to treat myself to what they call in Jacks: "The Flush Signature Package. This package included a Classic Cut, with a deep cleansing shampoo, scalp and neck massage, precision haircut and style and aroma therapy hot towels. This was followed by the Executive Hand Detail which included a deluxe manicure that also included an exfoliating scrub and a warm paraffin wax dip. And last but not least, I received the Foot Treatment. Here my nails were trimmed, I had the removal of dead skin and I received a foot massage that promoted good circulation! During all this process I was treated like royalty. When I arrived they offered me a non-alcoholic drink. I had an iced Coca-Cola, comfortably seated and waiting to be called. When my stylist was ready, she came down to get me. Then we went to the second floor. I chose to go using the elevator rather than the long stairs. Once there I received the treatment previously described. Then my Manicurist / Pedicure continued doing the other things mention after once again offering me another non-alcoholic drink. What an amazing experience. When I was finished may hands and my legs felt so good from all the massages and treatments received. If you have an opportunity of going there I would highly recommend you do. You will feel like new again. Having these treatments done really does make a difference. I'm so glad I found this place.

Very nice men's barber shop. Jack's is an all inclusive "spa"-type facility ranging from hair cuts…read moreto pedicures to "manscaping". Walk-ins are welcome but it seems appointments are easiest as the stylist stay pretty busy. The hair cuts are consistent and quality at a price that is comparable to any of the big name men's hair salons. The staff is very nice. I'm told that you can BYO alcohol and store it there to have while in the chair. There is also a clothing store downstairs that sells business/ casual attire making this a one stop shop to feel great about the way you look. You can make appointments in-person, over the phone or on their website.

Amazing service. I'm a Marine and appreciate a great haircut. Atmosphere is inviting and enjoyable.read more

It's hard to find someone that can do a good fade, even more so when you're on travel…read more I needed a cut and stumbled upon this little spot when I was in Roanoke. I made an appointment with Melanie the day prior and when I showed up the next day, was pleasantly greeted when I walked in to her shop. The shop is small with two chairs and one other barber, and is very comfortable. I think some barbershops can be intimidating, overwhelming or obnoxious - well, this isn't that place. The ladies here make you feel welcome. There's great natural light and cool knick knacks. I wanted a fade and a trim, and she did just that. We had awesome conversation the whole time. I think a cut is $20, and they offer a military discount - but call for prices just in case I'm inaccurate. Stop reading this, and go get your hair cut.

The other two reviews don't do this place justice. Sure, the owners son is brash and opinionated…read more But don't go just once. He will win you over along with the rest of the staff. I've been going here now for about 5 years and it's by far the best cut in the NRV I have had. Lamont, Darius, and Josh all three are top notch barbers who have vast experience with all kinds of different hair styles. Josh is generally my go-to, but if he's not there I have no hesitation to sit back with Lamont or Darius. Now here's the best thing about this place. This is an old school barbershop. There's teasing, trash talk, but there's love. These guys and gals make coming to the shop not a chore, but something I look forward to every 2 weeks even if there's a wait. And that's what having a barbershop to call yours is all about. These guys are all locals and grew up in the area, it's a family business as well. This is definitely more than a place to get a hair cut.

This is not a review for the skill of the barbers. I have been going to this establishment and have…read morealways received a great haircut. This review is simply a reflection of the owner (or I am guessing the owner's son based on other comments). At my last visit to the establishment this gentleman engaged in a discussion on immigration, where he no uncertain terms made it clear that immigrants have made no contributions to this country, should not be allowed enter United States, and that immigrant deaths in US custody are either fake news or do not matter because US should not spend his tax dollars on immigrants. I have toned down the tenor of his comments for the purpose of this review. Unfortunately, the actual conversation was hostile and full of dogwhistles. Personally I will no longer bring my business to this place.

We discussed what I wanted. He said no problem. So I sat down and he went to work. Razor, scissors and a straight edge. He did it all. No rush. Then some hot towels and a splash of Old Bay Rum. Done to perfection. And all for $12. Can't go wrong. I had tried most of the nice barbers here in Roanoke that are all run by women. Nice job but never up to what I wanted or expected. Being from NYC I am use to a good haircut. So finding this place was right what I was looking for. Remember ignore the outside and go in.

That being said, I am not a fan of supercuts or great clips because they notoriously do not have experienced barbers working there. I gave Highland Park Barber Shop a chance, not knowing anything about them at all. At first, you might be a little skeptical as its not the most aesthetically pleasing shop on earth (what barber shop is), but for $12 for a men's hair cut, I thought I would give it a shot. Let me tell you that I left there absolutely amazed. When you walk in, there are two barbers and a little waiting area. Ask for Greg- he is a wizard at cutting hair. I wear my hair high and tight and I am very picky about my looks- I'm hard to impress. He absolutely delivered and not to mention, my hair is very thick and hard to work with. He gave me an outstanding fade and it was better than my home barber shop in Southern California- that costs almost $25 a cut. I was extremely impressed. Give Highland Park Barber a shot- ask for Greg- and I promise you that you will not be disappointed. Great people, great service, great price. I will be going back every time I am in town.

I've been looking for a good barber for my son for about three years since I moved to SML. It's…read morebeen pretty difficult honestly. So when I looked on yelp & found this business I was excited & hopeful that it would work out. I made an apointment with Steve via their website for a Saturday apointment at 12:00. I drove all the way to Roanoke from the lake & at 12:00 Steve texted & said he didn't feel well and that he wasn't going to come into the shop at all that day. Now, I understand not feeling well...life happens. But to wait until the exact time of my apointment was piss poor. Now, I'll get to why I still gave this business a 5 star review. When we got the text that Steve left us high & dry CHASE stepped up & offered to cut my son's hair. He was crazy busy all by himself in the shop on a Saturday & he still squeezed us in. He took his time on my son's hair--he could have rushed him through & finished quickly, but Chase took his time & it really showed. I absolutely love my son's hair cut & I'll definitely bring my kid back to get his hair cut with Chase.

I should have got up and left the moment he had this dazed look like he was under the influence of something. Moved to Roanoke from San Diego so this was my first experience with a barber. Chase was the only one I could find with availability (should have been a warning sign) I've been getting the same cut for the past 10 years. Medium low skin fade, trim up the top. NOOO HIGH AND TIGHT. He never repeated back to me what I said, he just grabbed his clippers on a zero and ran a line up my head. He just kept cutting up and up and finally I was like dude I literally said no high and tight. At this point I already knew my hair was butchered, I didn't even want to see it, then on top of that he charges like $35 for subpar work, definitely will not be going back.
