Best Barber Shops In Gainesville

“Got the place recommend to me by some work friends and it does not disappoint. Great experience, easy to schedule, and timely. Thank you to Alex!“

“They just get it right every time. Best place for a cut in Gainesville. I'm a student BTW.“

“Won't go anywhere else for a haircut. Cole knows her way around a set of clippers! Great work and friendly stylists. Make an appointment.“

“Well I would like to start this review with a few details and foundational points before we get into the services this salon provided me:

1. I am a truck driver with locs
2. I have a loctician but couldn’t get to her
3. ⚠️I am EXTREMELY TENDER-HEADED. ⚠️
4. I have not had a wash/re-twist since end October 2024
5. Did I mention that I am extremely tender headed?

After securing my rental car- not from Florida- I found out I was an hour and a half out. Called Jessica and she said “No problem, I am a driver too and I understand”… CAN WE ACKNOWLEDGE GRACE? ❤️

Arrived almost two hours after my appointment and she was so inviting, sincere and READY!

Let’s define Ready- Suitable and in a state of availability; within reach of a goal! She had All of That!

Let’s talk about the Shampoo
1. Properly prepped with materials
2.Ample Enough Space for these Thighs ?
3. Water pressure and temp on point
4. Appropriate shampoo/conditioner for MY HAIR TYPE- Because we know that all shampoo/conditioners are not created equal!
5. Took her time
6. Assessed between rinses because… yeah!
7. Allowed my conditioner TIME TO SET… cause yeah…

I did have to wait about an hour or so before my style started because I was late arriving- that’s fair!

Style
Elijah aka Peanut, very professional and beyond knowledgeable of all things hair. Upon starting, my hair needed interlocking vs a regular re-twist. Timely- but the attention to all 160+ locs was immeasurable. I was taken care of. I was heavily attended to. I conversed and I was poured into. I was shaped mentally. I was encouraged. I was accepted. I was handled with respect.

Satisfaction does not describe my experience. The word that properly fits is triumphant. I felt complete as if I had arrived at a certain level that I had no idea of traveling to.

Hairport Salon is in a model of its own. The Gainesville area will forever be impacted as long as services like this continue to thrive.

This BOB is a plow moving all bullish!t hair services out of the way. I will never allow someone to belittle my expectations when it is companies like Hairport catching on!

Run for the appointment. Do not walk. Run.

“Hello,

My name is Alex, and I wanted to share my experience with this barbershop. The team truly knows what they are doing—they deliver clean, modern haircuts with great attention to detail. The atmosphere is welcoming, friendly, and very family-oriented, which makes every visit comfortable.

The barbers are not only skilled but also kind and professional. It’s clear they take pride in their work and in providing excellent service to their customers. I also appreciate that they offer a military service discount, which shows their support for the community.

The pricing is very reasonable as well, with haircuts around $20, and even lower for children, making it accessible for families.

Overall, this is a unique and reliable place for a great haircut. Thank you for the excellent service—I look forward to coming back.

Best regards,
Alex“
