Reviews for Hyde Park Hair Salon & Barber

May 2023

I brought my son to get a cut before school one day. I walked-in three people are there, everyone looked at me and no one spoke, I let this big guy with a beard service my son because I wanted my sons hair similar to his cut which was simple. The man charged me $40 for a simple cut for an 8year old idk if it’s the location or the Obama thing. But I won’t be back ever again because the service, friendliness, comfort provided is a zero and that price, is completely blown out of proportion for a kids haircut and that was all we got? Baby couldn’t some candy for something? am extremely disappointed I Don’t recommendService: Kids' cuts

Quality cut. Got me in day of a little later in the evening. Only 4 stars bc it is definitely on the pricier side. They hang their hat on the fact Obama went there, which is cool but at the end of the day it's $50 a cut.

Great people, nice atmosphere, have had one great haircut and another not so great. Calling to make an appointment a few days or even hours ahead can be a bit tricky since each stylist has their own schedule and they don't keep track of each other's schedules. Easiest option is just to walk in, see if someone's available, wait if not, or make an appointment in person for later that day and come back.
