Best Barber Shops In Raleigh

“Kind folks who give a killer haircut! I've never been disappointed and have stopped going elsewhere for a lesser fade. They'll give you the hot towel treatment and wash to make sure you aren't shedding all day either!“

“Took my two boys here to get haircuts. One had Steve and the other had Steve Jr. They both did a great job - my boys loved their cuts. These are great guys doing great work in a good old style barbershop atmosphere for a reasonable price (paid $21, compared to most other shops we've been to recently which are up to $30). No fru-fru nonsense like what you get at some of these new chains. Good old fashioned barbershop where a man can get a man's haircut, which is what we like. Definitely will be returning.“

“Nas is an ARTIST with the clippers. You can always tell by someone’s finesse and attention to detail that they love what they do. He’s also just easy to talk to. And he always gives me the look I want and fades the beard up so nice. I also like the modern vibe of the spot inside, it’s well lit, and the playlist is always dope. Highly recommend cutting here, though I don’t want Nas to be overbooked so I can still get cut lol.

Requested style: Low skin fade into the beard“

“Great barber shop! I saw lots of glowing reviews for some of the other stylists there, but Jenita did a fantastic job for me on my first visit. Extremely friendly, professional, and thorough. I will definitely be back to see Jenita again!“

“Since the beginning of this year, Sarah has been helping me determine how extensions can be used to add thickness to my hair. I have very fine, very straight hair that will go flat to my head no matter how much time I spend styling it. With the extensions, Sarah has given me a new outlook to what my hair can do! I can now have curl that lasts or wear my hair straight with a lot more volume. She has taught me how to care for the extensions to get the most out of them. Thank you Sarah; I look forward to continuing down this road!

Specialties: Extension installation and color

Hair type: Fine, straight, below shoulder

Stylist: Sarah, she aims to understand the needs of her customers and works with them to form a plan.“

“Fast and efficient. I appreciate the private suite and worship music. My beard is stunning.“

“I’ve been going to this barbershop since I was 17 years old. Always top-notch, consistent haircuts. Nothing but amazing things to say about Andre—he’s one of the most enthusiastic and talented people I’ve ever met. He always creates a warm, welcoming environment that makes you feel at home. When unexpected things come up, he’s super communicative, takes full accountability, and always offers solutions. Hands down, the best barbershop in the state.“

“Best Barber in Raleigh! (Female Perspective)

Hair type: 4b/4c salt and pepper

Stylist: Jimmy is the best!
I have a short TWA (Teeny Weeny Afro).
I went from long relaxed hair, to "natural" about 3 years ago.
I have tried several barbers in the area.
None cut my hair as clean and precisely as Jimmy.
A beautiful, "feminine" haircut:
Jimmy gives me the perfect style, shape, taper and line-up every time.
I also like that he is not rough and heavy- handed, as some barbers are with their female clients.
I leave looking and feeling great.
I get compliments everywhere I go!“

“Most professional and customer friendly barbershop I’ve ever been to. JAnthony and Reggie are go to barbers and hairline is still fully intact. Very respectable establishments that makes everyone feel welcomed.“

“Van was so kind and made sure my son felt comfortable and good about his haircut before we left! He especially loved the complimentary Dr. Pepper!“

“New to Raleigh and needed a barber for my teenager. He wanted the new it style and he got it. Brandon knew exactly what to do. Very pleased with the service and love the private atmosphere.“

“Walked in, Tony did exactly what I needed and real quick, and I was out in 15. Thank you!“

“Great service and haircut. The hours of operation state they close at 5:30, yet when I asked for a 6 pm appointment, she was willing to help! It is rare to find customer service like that nowadays.

Very friendly and a great price! I will be a repeat customer.“

“Spayne is one of the most professional barbers in the Raleigh area. Down to earth dude. Work ethic is unmatched, as well as his skillset. Ill be coming back for sure. Thank you, Sir! ??“

“Steve is the best! On top of being a fantastic barber, he is a great dude and awesome to talk with. My hair is straight but I have cowlicks and I usually walk away from most other barbers with one side of my head being a little bit bigger than the other. Thought that's just how it was and I made my peace with it until Steve somehow performed a miracle and pulled off a good haircut and I've been going to him ever since.“

“They get my hair right every time. Even though they find it strange I want it finished and then the top chopped all to hell and uneven. They'll treat you right, but being cash, they don't take cards“

“Richard Smith does a great job cutting hair; he is more particular than I am!Service: Haircut“

“Super friendly, professional, did a great job for a great price! Ready for back to school!“

“I have know William, Mr. GroomRoom for about 15 years. He is the only other man I let in my head!!! When I cut my hair short, he is my go to man. His expertise, precision and professionalism exceeds your expectations. When another stylist/barber admires and compliments your haircut you know it’s fire. Mr. GroomRoom book your appointment now!!!“

As a female he styled and detangled and gave a very sophisticated look. He was gentle hands and truly a comforting place to get a hair wash style. A new look

“Great place, guaranteed excellent service ,no appointments needed, will recommend anyone to visit“

“I've been a customer for years and I highly recommend Amaury. His attention to detail and genuine care for his clients is truly unmatched. Whenever I have an important life event or just need a routine clean up, an appointment at Amadi's Cuts is a given! Lastly, Amaury is an phenomenal barber, but an even better person. I give my strongest endorsement to him and his business.“

“Clean, safe, environment. very professional, and skilled Barbershop staff. They cut hair so nice I would recommend.“

“Just moved to Raleigh and was in need of a new barber. I was putting it off as I had been going to the same one for 6 years, but I’m glad I finally pulled the trigger and went to Ed.

He was very precise and cut my hair exactly how I wanted! I’ll definitely be back.“

“I have been going here for over a decade. Great family (all the barbers are father and sons) and one the only places that can do a good fade every time.“
