Best barber I’ve had in my life. Consistently gets me in and out in under 12 minutes with the highest quality haircut and great fades. Ive been to too many barbershops or hair salons in the past that make suggestions the whole time and try to sell you their products but Khalid focuses on high-quality haircuts

Great barber and great guy! As an Egyptian, I often have trouble finding a barber that understands the nature of my hair. Khalid cuts my hair really well and it doesnt end up looking crazy between cuts. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants a good haircut!

Khalid is one of the best around. What takes new barbers 25 minutes to cut, he gets done in half the time and with a better more precise cut. Not sure what he is doing that others arent, but hes doing it right. I cant recommend him enough

Khalid is the man plain and simple. I’ve been going to Khalid for about 2 years now and I know I’ll always get a consistently good cut from him.

I’ve been going to Khalid for about 4 years now. No exaggeration, I’ve been happy with every cut. He’s very nice and his shop is very clean and well put together. I’ve recommended him to many friends and will continue to do so. His prices for a haircut and beard trim are unbeatable in the WMA!

Khalid is the best. Great haircut every time. Used to be impossible to get an appointment but things have slowed down since the pandemic. $30 haircut. A few extra dollars over a walk-in barbershop is well worth it.

For years I used to fly back to my hometown to get a haircut like it should be done, that is until I found Khalid. Now not only do I visit him religiously, I bring my son there as well. Clean, impeccable, and superb in his craft, if you are looking for a haircut the way it should be, visit Khalid. There isn’t anyone better in the DMV.

EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED!! My hair is thick, curly, wavy, and extremely difficult to cut. I spent a long time trying to find a decisive awnser to who gives the best mens haircut in the DMV, so let me just save you the time: THIS IS THE BEST HAIRCUT AROUND!!!! Khalid is an artist

I’ve been going to Khalid for about 2 years now. Khalids consistency and efficiency are the two main drivers for me. I can give him limited direction and I know what I’ll get every time.

Sandy was friendly and did an incredible job. I enjoyed talking with her as she gave me a great haircut.

Review №20

My partner recently cut his hair here. The cut is decent in terms of value per dollar, but it seems like the barber only knows one style, which he crudely applies to all hair types. The barber is incredibly hasty, does not take the clients preferences into consideration, and doesnt account for cowlicks or how the client wears their hair on a daily basis (i.e. what products do you use; air dry or blow dry?). Without a blow dry + sculpting gel, my partner looks like he has an array of orthogonal vectors and tail feathers sitting on his head! Too much was taken off the top...East Asian hair beware!

I liked my haircut a lot and the place is very nice. I recently moved into the neighborhood and this place is definitely where I’ll be going for a haircut. Glad I found it. Khalid does a really nice job. 👍🏻

It was my first time going to Khalid and he was amazing. Appointment was on time, quick, amazing quality. He cut me exactly how I wanted it and even better. Will definitely be coming again.

Review №23

I’ve been going to Khalid for a couple years after looking for a good barber for some time. Khalid is the perfect combination of professional, efficient, and detail oriented while giving you the best haircut. He listens to what you request and knows how to give you the haircut you’re looking for. His prices are competitive but you get way more for your money than going somewhere else. His appointment system is spot on. I recommend Khalid to everyone who asks.

Review №25

Khalid has been a name that I kept hearing for a while amongst people in the Arlington area so I decided to give him a visit. He was very easy going, professional and provided a quality service. After about a day, I was feeling uneasy about a certain part of the cut (I was trying something new) and contacted Khalid. He offered for me to come by so resolve the issue no questions asked. The guy is a high quality dude providing a high quality service.

Review №26

First time getting my hair cut here with a walk in. Loved the homey feel and attention to detail. I didnt catch the name of woman who cut my hair but she was fantastic - cut it in a way that was very natural - taking care of of all the cowlicks and nuances that are usually a nuisance for me.Khalid was extremely kind and clearly wants to take care of his customers. I will be back for sure.

Review №27

I’ve been coming to Khalid for years, from before he started his own shop. Fair prices, friendly service, and most importantly no one cuts hair quite like him. Always great to have a barber you can rely on.

Review №28

Khalid is the best barber in the D.C. area. Period. There is always a line on walk-in days, and the haircuts are always worth the wait. Khalid is professional, friendly, and makes sure you get exactly what you want. He cares deeply about his customers and clearly takes a lot of pride in his work. He is the only person I trust to cut my beard, and I recommend him to anyone looking for a superlative haircut.

Jo
Review №29

Both Khalid and Sandy are fantastic barbers. I had been struggling to find a decent haircut since I moved to DC in 2016, and after several expensive and mediocre haircuts, I stumbled on Khalid and was immediately happy and have been going to see him every 3 weeks since. He knows how to do the best fade Ive had in several years. You will NOT be disappointed! And please respect his time, he has a great appointment system and a lot of people to get through, so if you are late, it screws it up for every one of us who are waiting after you.

Review №38

Can’t speak for the woman at the shop but Khalid gives some awesome cuts. He’s extremely skilled with the straight razor, knows how to do beards, and charges less than all the other places in the area.For anyone reading this: Khalid is out of town from now (mid August) to early September. Went to the Grooming Store in his stead and got a great cut there too.

Been going to Khalid for years even before he had his own place. Id drive from West Falls Church all the way in to Arlington each time because I after searching for a good barber in NoVA for years, none did as great a job as Khalid.Lately my kids schedules have changed which has made going to Khalid difficult but Id definitely go back if I can!

Review №41

Hands down the best barber in the Arlington area. I’ve tried the several around and none compare. In and out in 15 minutes with a solid fade and cut on top. Must make appointment he books up fast, which is a good sign that others feel the same way.

Review №42

I’m sorry to say but I was pretty disappointed with the haircut. I appreciate that Khalid took me in last minute, but we could have scheduled for another time instead of being squeezed in. The sides of my haircut was not proportional, too much of the top was cut, it was not a consistent haircut all the way through. For whatever reason it said here and on Yelp that cards are accepted, however it is cash only. I could not get a beard trim either.The cut was clean, hair removed was efficient. But I was left disappointed

Review №46

Best Barber in Arlington. Ive searched for months and had several bad haircuts before I found Khalid. Hardest working, best Barber a guy who has to get it a haircut every 2 weeks can ever dream of. Walk-ins on Sunday, the line can get long but it is definitely worth it! Its packed for a reason.

Review №47

Started coming to Khalid last year when I moved to Arlington and havent gotten a cut anywhere else since. Ive had a lot of barbers where I will tell them just take a half of an inch off and Ill somehow leave with a buzz cut but khalid actually listens and doesnt make the first cut without okaying it with you first which is a huge plus for me. Not to mention the man cuts a mean fade

I really want to give 5 for Khalid, but I am extremely dissatisfied with the lady over there. Out of 5 times I have been to this place, 3 times I got the haircut by the lady (not a good experience) and 2 times by Khalid - he is exceptional. 4 stars for the man!

Sandy is an outstanding barber. When my previous barbershop closed I spent a couple of months patiently trying different spots. Thank goodness I found Khalid’s barber shop. Sandy did a great job of following my instructions and Khalid even did a QC before I walked out. Highly recommend this place and Sandy!

Review №56

I moved to Falls Church and was in search for a nice barber and found Khalid on google and looking at the 5 star reviews, I thought to give it a try.Khalid is an artist and cut my hair exactly I asked for. He is very pleasant and communicative and we exchanged some stories while he was cutting my hair. I highly recommend him and would be going to him moving forward.

Khalid is the man. He has been doing a wonderful job cutting my hair for about 3 years now. I have been driving 30 minutes all the way to Arlington about once a month, even after moving out to Herndon 2 years ago, to get a cut from Khalid since I know Ill get the end result I want every time. Hes very professional and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

Review №61

I have a serious fivehead, so haircuts used to be TRAUMATIZING. I would only get one a year, but Im an actual adult now and that doesnt work if I want to keep my job. I found Khalid years ago when he was at Willys, and have followed him after he split off and started his own shop. Khalid gives such great haircuts Im all the way up to once a month now. Scheduling an appointment is a game changer too - no more waiting but there are plenty of walk in days too

After trying a few alternatives in the Ballston / Falls Church Area I started coming to Khalid for almost 2 yrs now. Ive had great success in quality consistent haircuts at a very fair price. Im so very happy for Khalid in opening up his own shop.Not only can he cut a very good skin fade (never had a line or mistake), Ive seen Khalid do some awesome beard trims but my wife wont let me grow one but he does awesome work.You cant go wrong with Khalid hell always take care of you. 5 stars highly recommended.

Quality and speed usually dont go well together. But at Khalids its the best. Im in and out in 15 mins with the best fade and beardwork for the price. He only takes cash and theres always a line. Book ahead of time, $40 for a haircut and beardwork

Khalid is a savant with the clippers and scissors. His fades and cuts are as good (if not better) than Wise Owl and Bang Salon, for almost half the price. It honestly pains me a little to write this review bc I had to wait 25 min on Friday AM for him, but I respect his hustle and the 5 star review is absolutely well deserved. I cannot recommend his work enough, definitely check him out!!

Horrible experience here. I HIGHLY recommend you go to any other barber shop around here. I had the Korean lady cut my hair and despite me showing her the photo of how I wanted it and repeatedly telling how I want it she cut it her own way and it looks horrible. I could tell she was just doing a rushed job. DO NOT RECOMMEND EVER.

Khalid is the real deal, through & through, when it comes to legitimate barbers - highly recommended!I had been in the Arlington area for a few years & bounced around from barber to barber, getting haircuts that were alright at best.Finally, I came across Willys, where he used to work, and would just roll with the first available barber.One day I got lucky enough to walk in when he was free and lets just say from that point on I havent even entertained the thought of going to a different barber.Now that he has his own business, its even more apparent that Khalid is a straight up professional & does not miss a beat when it comes to running a top of the line barber shop.Stop on by & youll see exactly what Im talking about - guarantee youll find your new go-to barber just like I did.Youre the man, Khalid!
