Best Barber Shops In East Lansing

“Mistakenly had the wrong day. Walked in and realized it, but Jared said he could do a walk in for me! He did an amazing job and I’m once again preaching this is the best barber shop in EL. Customer service is the absolute best, all the barbers are great, and it’s the only place in the area I trust to cut my hair right!“

“Wonderful experience, talented and professional barbers with attention to detail, kind conversation, great haircuts. We’ll be back again.“

“I recently popped into Jude's Barbershop on Lake Lansing and just had to share how awesome my experience was! I managed to snag a last-minute appointment with Kelly D. for a haircut and beard trim, and honestly, I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.

Full disclosure, I'm usually a bit nervous about getting my hair cut, especially after a few less-than-great experiences in the past. But Kelly D. was incredible. She immediately put me at ease and truly paid attention to every single detail. It wasn't just about my hair; she gave my beard the same meticulous care, and the result was a really sharp, polished look. The customer service was top-notch, making the whole visit super comfortable and genuinely enjoyable.

If you're on the hunt for a new barbershop, I absolutely recommend Jude's Barbershop Lake Lansing. And if you can book with Kelly D., you're in for a treat! With the back-to-school rush creeping up, now's the perfect time to get that fresh cut and beat the crowds. Seriously, don't put it off – go experience their awesome service for yourself!“

“As an MSU student, I highly recommend Red Cedar Barber Shop. Becky has been a barber for a really long time and I’ve been thoroughly satisfied with each haircut I’ve received from her. Very nice and friendly too.“

“I have been going to Lito since he was in barber school and have essentially followed him to every shop since. I have never gone anywhere else since my first cut with him around high-school graduation. It's been years now. He is an incredible barber with amazing attention to detail. He's incredibly gentle and kind. He's quiet but willing to have a conversation. I referred all of my friends to him and the ones that listened all stayed. One even says he falls asleep in his chair. I have never had a bad cut from him and he is hands down the only one I trust with my hair. The shop environment here is nice. It's always clean and the music is always good. The guys will go back n' forth with each other and it's always fun to listen too.

Requested style: I typically get a level 3 fade with medium length on the top. Lito tapers it out so it grows evenly. That's what works for me n' my face shape and body type. He is pretty good at judging what will look good but going in with ideas is definitely helpful. If you follow him on Instagram he is usually open to consulting on ideas before booking to make sure you get the right cut.“

“This place does amazing haircuts and everything but expect to spend a few hours here. I had an appointment at 11 and it's currently 11:35 and I'm still waiting. Definitely bring something to do.“
