Lightheaded Studio

Nov 2023

I have been coming to Lightheaded since I moved to the Richmond a couple years back and it has always been a great experience! The barbershop itself is very spacious and accommodating, with a comfy couch if you come early. The appointment booking process is online and relatively painless. I have curly hair (2C/3A) and have been burned before by barbers who don’t know how to deal with the cowlicks etc, but Emerson has never let me down. He has good suggestions for when I want to try out something new, and his fades and tapers are hella clean. And best of all, he has very reasonable prices…can’t recommend this place enough!

Good assessment of your face and head shape.

There's a water cooler and a large TV with all major streaming platforms.

And I appreciated that so much about him. He even offered to show me the best way he thinks I can style my new cut once I...read full review
