Reviews
Amazing work by all the barbers. myself and my 4 boys get cuts all the time. Love the people and atmosphere!
When I moved back from the Metroplex I had been admittedly spoiled from years of going to one of the high end men’s barbershops that is in the Frisco area and was sorely missing that expert touch for my hair and beard. A word of mouth recommendation led me to The Collective and the king of bad puns himself Wade Schumpert! It’s been over a year now and I look forward to every month when I know I’m stepping into the shop and the instant stress relief and laughs I know I’m going to have. I cannot say enough good things about Wade, Nichole and the rest of the barbers. This is the first and last place you need to look for all your needs because they are guaranteed to take care of whatever you could possibly need.
