This was the most amazing experience. This brother is absolutely professional. I have just found my Gentlemens Barbershop. The experience was something that you only see on TV.
I have found my longer term barber for sure. I highly recommend this place, you won’t regret it!
I never write reviews, but this is well deserved.I am always nervous about getting my haircut and going to new barbers, but the first time I came here Dwayne cut my hair and it was the best haircut Ive ever had. So, I came back for a second time. This time Khalil cut and it looked great as well. I honestly cant recommend this place enough. Not only was the haircut amazing, but the great conversations helped pass the time by. Ill be coming back for as long as theyre in business.
I’ve been to a lot of barbers in Athens and Atlanta and this is by far the best that I’ve ever been to. I have found my longer term barber for sure. I highly recommend this place, you won’t regret it!
I was recently at a conference that was held in Cobb Galeria. I had a couple small windows where I thought that I might be able to squeeze in a haircut and a beard trim. I searched google to find the closest barber and discovered this one. I arrived a few minutes before they were open and the barber already had clientele coming in, which i perceived as a good indicator as to the skill of the barber. I was very warmly and quickly greeted. We discussed what I wanted and I made an appointment to return later in the day. After a change in my schedule as no longer able to get trimmed up. I was able to observe the barber stying other clients and could easily tell that he puts He was very understanding and communicated one of the most sincere desires to help. Based off of this experience I am literally trying to force my schedule to put me back here. Thank you for everything. I will return.
I travel a lot and have to gamble sometimes on where I get my haircut. UpScale hooked me up with the best skin fade Ive ever had. VIP treatment come standard and you get a guy who will take the time to make sure you leave with not only a great cut but a great experience.
UpScale Barber Shop is appropriately named. The service is exceptional and your whole experience is just that, upscale from start to finish. You have the choice of an assortment of beverages complimentary why you wait and when you do get your haircut and shave you have several hot towels, steam treatment and several other amenities to insure that your haircut is perfect everytime. I highly recommend UpScale!
I just got the dopest fade ever, these guys are super fancy
I was blown away by every aspect of my experience with KJ and this barber shop. KJ is extremely talented and he takes a great deal of pride in his work. I have never left a barber feeling more confident than I did here. I highly recommend stopping by. You won’t regret it.
Super busy on Friday, but well worth the wait. Just got the upscale style! Loved the service and loved the vibe! The barbers are very personable and hospitalble! I enjoyed a cold brew before and after my excellent haircut. Definitely will be back!
I love great service & attention to details and Upscale delivered both with style and finesse! I have been getting a cut every week for the past 14 years ( just turned 34) so I’m very particular and a huge critic in this field. I must say that Dwayne is surely one of the best hairstylists (if not the best) I have had work on my hair and beard and trust me I had many great ones both in NYC and Miami. He took his time and went over every detail on my beard, mustache and hair. I was surprised to find out that he was also top of the line with the scissors at the end when he cut my hair slightly short. It took 90 minutes total and Dwayne was friendly and conversational the entire time. We talked about many things including sports and different cities and culture. Overall, you will miss out on a unique 5 star experience if you do not make the trip to this gem while in Atlanta! I’m definitely glad i did and I will surely return when I’m in here next time.
The Service at UpScale Barbershop is unparalleled... He was certain to ask and understand what I wanted and executed it to perfection. From the hot towel to hot lather application for the straight edge razor was phenomenonal. It was refreshing to finally meet an artist that is professional, timely, polished and very knowledgeable. I think I’ve found home
Update: owner called to explain it was a family emergency. Even asked what he could do to make it up. Really appreciate the honesty and sincerity. Looking forward to trying it out!Original: came here on a Tuesday afternoon about 1145. Sign says open and TVs were on, but lights off, and no one answering the phone. Ended up eating in the courtyard to see if anyone came back... nothing. This place still open?
KJ is an absolute professional and a master at his skill. I drive an hour and a half away to see him to get my haircut. Hes friendly, hospitable, and a great conversation, too.
Its not often that I leave reviews, but this place is awesome. Very personable, professional, and talented. Been in Atlanta for a year now and finally found someone that knows how to cut hair! Id give more then 5 stars if I could. I will definitely be back for my next haircut.
A place that gives you all the feel of an old school barbershop with a current edge. The service is detailed and the staff is friendly, courteous and fun. From the minute you walk in your greeted by a smile by Ms. Erica. Any of the barbers are great at cutting but my personal barber is Myron. Great shop, you should definitely visit. You can make appointments or walk in.
Ive been to many barber shops but I always go back to Joes fact is these days few shops take pride in what they do I believe Frank sees it as a art and not a job of Burden with that being said whenever I need to look my best I make sure I stop by Joes Barber shop
Im extremely happy I found this place! After endless searching online, I came across Upscale Barbershop. The Atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxing! The candles added comfort along with aromatherapy! The barber Kj was very professional and his demeanor exuded friendly and Humble. I have to say, This was in fact THEE BEST Barbershop in town. My two sons absolutely loved their hair cuts and pampering. You CANNOT go wrong with Upscale Barbershop Galleria!!! Excellent service, great atmosphere, friendly people i will certainly be returning!!!!
Whenever I travel to Atlanta I make sure to schedule a grooming session with the owner/grooming specialist. I never had a barber take an invested interest in not just giving me a clean shave but a total grooming experience. Nose hair removal, ear hair removal, hot towel treatments and a facial to boot. I left feeling like a new man and I had an extra swagger the remainder of the day. I suggest this place to anyone not totally satisfied with their current barber. Thanks Upscale for showing me that there is more to grooming then a simply shave and trim!
Great place to get a cut,shave and overall barbershop experience. Just get in any chair you cant go wrong. It took me awhile to find not just a barber but a shop I can really trust and one that has that costumers first attitude. This is my first time writing a review for anything but i had to do this one. Always a good vibe and a great cut. 5 stars in my book.
Good service, just didnt get the cut I wanted for the price. The gentleman must of been must have been new and not the owner. Im disappointed based off the ratings that Google gave the shop. Its Black-owned so I wont bash it, but I cant say that Ill go back based off the type of cut I received. I wish I could upload pictures so as not to be viewed as hating vs speaking the truth. It is what is, I still wouldnt suggest others avoid the place as it has a cool atmosphere and staff. Maybe it just wasnt my night.
KJ is very personable and professional. Their service is above the rest( he offered me a variety of refreshments and Carissa had my eight year old son talking more than I can get him to converse). I haven’t even got to the haircut itself which was done with precision and patience. Do yourself a favor and try out this remarkable business and you will not be disappointed.
Excellent customer service. Attention to detail. It’s an experience beyond just getting a haircut. Great conversations and very intellectual.
Called ahead of time asked if we could walk in and get seen he said yes, get there 10 minutes later. There was only ONE Barber there in the middle of a hair cut. Gets done with this person starts on another person after telling my boyfriend it would only be 20 minutes. So he keeps waiting and someone else walks in and goes is KJ here employee says no. Then a guy comes out of the back and takes the person that JUST walked in instead of my boyfriend. That had been waiting for an hour and 23 minutes now. So needless to say we will not ever be returning. Would have been different if they where honest and said it will be an 1 1/2 minutes wait. So they do not value people’s time at all. So disappointed. The reviews are the only reason why we choose this place.
I received an excellent haircut and enjoyed the experience. I will be going back. Glad to have found such an experienced and skilled barber!
If I could give KJ more than 5 stars I would! Clean shop, work items in the shop are kept clean, and the shop is in a convenient location. First time going there an he understood what I wanted and with meticulous detail gave me a great haircut. I will be a repeat customer and recommend if youre in the Cumberland area looking for a barber you should give UpScale Barber Shop Men Grooming a chance. Set an appointment first.
My man Myron is the dude at Upscale. I have lived in Atlanta for 4 years and 3 years been coming to him. After my cuts with him, I got friends and coworkers asking me who my barber is and if I travel with him everywhere since i am always on the road.Dude is sick with the razor and makes me comfortable while I get my cut and shave.Come see my man Myron at Upscale Barbershop!
I took one of the Iranian refugee kids I take care of here. KJ was awesome! He is so meticulous and amiable and generous! Great prices (cash only! Watch out! Theres an ATM right by the shop)! Ill be bringing ALL of the kids I take care of here.
New to the area and spent an hour looking for a reputable barbershop. Safe to say I found my barber for my time here. Amazing customer service, amazing guy, and of course an amazing cut. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for quality.
One of the BEST intimate shop Ive seen in Cobb county. Service is amazing, and barbers are VERY professional. They take the services seriously and very diverse. Come check out Upscale Barbershop.
One of the most welcoming environments in the area. If you want something done and done right, look no further because this master barber delivers. Whether it be a quick shave or if its the full pretty boy service, a smile never escapes my face when I walk out. Could not recommend this shop enough.
Went in and saw KJ (the owner) first thing in the morning on a Friday and it was by far one of the best barber experiences Ive had so far. Got a cut and a shave and spent close to an hr and a half in the chair due to his attention to detail and care to create an enjoyable and relaxing experience instead of just trying to get through as many customers as quickly as possible. If you want a high quality cut with high quality service, go in and see KJ.
Awesome experience at Upscale Barber Shop! From the moment I walked in I felt appreciated & welcomed. Also being that very picky about who I let cut my hair and do my beard. I was very pleased with KJs attention to detail and his focus on his craft. Definitely will be a repeat client and recommend to friends & family.
The best barbershop Ive ever been to. All the barbers know what theyre doing and take pride in their work. Theyll make sure your line up is as clean as humanly possible. Even though I cut my own hair, I still spend the money to go get lined up and shaved here.
Let me just start off by saying that the person who put 1 star is either competition or unstable. This place is 1st class all the way. Myself and two fellow coworkers that were in town for work all got hot shaves and haircuts here. Every one of them turned out awesome, and we all agreed that it was among the best of our experiences over the two weeks we were in Atlanta.
KJ is good at what he does. Personable and cool. Always has water and snacks.Great location with great parking
As soon as I walked in I felt welcomed and comfortable. He gave me the ultimate experience and has a lot of talent. By far the best barbershop I’ve ever been to and will continue to go to.
Update: I spoke with the manager KJ and he explained to me that he had an emergency that took place on the way to work. KJ offered me a free session to get the new experience that I was looking for. I look forward to having the same great experience as everyone else.On June 24th, I was trying to do something different for my birthday. I searched online for a creditable place for a nice shave and good experience, I found Upscale Barbershop and it had great reviews. The website said that Upscale barbershop opened at 10 am, I arrived at 10:25am and there was no one in the Barbershop. I called the number listed online and someone answered, I asked” Are you open for service today ?” The answer was” yes but we will be opening at 11am today. I was kind of puzzled because the website said 10 and I was told 11am by the person whom I talked to on the phone. That’s a hour difference and incorrect information on the website.I wait around to 11 and go back into the building around 11:05 and the Barbershop was still close. I wait around to 11:22 am and there is still no one there to open the Barbershop. I call the same number back off the website and there was no answer. It seemed to me like the calls were being screened, due to the fact that I called the number an hour prior to see in they were open.This is very unprofessional and left a bad impression for someone trying something new and willing to pay money for a service that is supposed to be top notch.
One of the best men and people here. Awesome atmosphere and very friendly service. A very nice man and he did me really good. Definitely a 5 out of a 5 and I would definitely come back
Easily the best and most genuine barbershop experience I have ever had. The quality of the haircut and facial hair trim was unmatchable. Also the conversation and atmosphere brings this place over the top.
Got the pretty boy and it was by far one of the Better barber experiences Ive had in my 40 years of hair cuts. Great location, welcoming environment and highly skilled barbers to say the least
Outstanding haircut, in town for the weekend. Attention to detail, great experience! Very very happy with Dwayne!
Very personable and professional. Consistently delivers high quality hair care, styling and cutting. There could be a long wait sometimes, but KJ makes it worth the wait!
Hands down the best haircut I received in years! Professional environment, quality and attention to detail barber. Youd be hard pressed to find better in the Smyrna area.
KJ did an awesome job on my sons haircut. Very personal and professional.
Great experience! Dwayne did a great job. I love the environment. Its laid back and has a nice homie feel. If Im back in Atlanta this is definitely the place I would visit for a haircut. Everyone was welcoming and friendly! Thanks for great service!
Kahlil has been cutting my hair for the last four years. I always leave his chair with a great cut. His shop in the Galleria Mall is most certainly upscale and you leave with a wonderful customer experience.
The owner (KJ) was the first person to welcome me to the City of Atlanta. He is the best barber that Ive ever had. The services that he offers exemplify a lifestyle that his professional customers live. I will not get a haircut from any other place in this city but the Upscale Barber Shop
Oh Gosh, I went there for the 1st in my life and Dwayne gave me the best hair cut in the world. All in all he enjoys, loves and knows what hes doing. Love these guys KJ and Dwyane.
Upscale barber Shop has by far the best service when it comes to mens grooming. Customer Service is at the top of the list when dealing with this business. Calling this place a barbershop is an injustice. Its definitely an upscale mens grooming salon for the same price as your neighborhood barber. Once you come here you will be comparing every barber with them and there is just NO comparison. I would recommend this place 100 x over.
I just wanted to say Thank you so much for getting my two little boys a excellent haircut an being very professional human being and when we come back to Atlanta we sure render your services again
Upscale is the only barber shops I ever want to cut my hair. Everywhere else doesnt compare to the consistent high quality. I live in SF and prefer to fly back to ATL for a cut whenever possible. 10 out of 10.
A nice place with amazing service.
Kj is a great barber, very skilled in the art of barbering. I am impressed with cleanliness and location of the shop. The environment is welcoming and relaxing. The candles and aromatherapy makes for a wonderful experience! The haircuts and servicesrendered by this Master Barber are second to non!
This Barbershop is immaculate ! The quality of service and atmosphere is the BEST! Try “The Pretty Boy” service!
Kahili is my personal barber! He is family! Makes me feel like I am home, when I am here. When I am in the chair he remembers me by name. We can talk about anything. He doesnt gossip, he is very professional. I love coming here!!!!!!
KJ went above and beyond, to ensure that my son received not only a nice haircut but an overall good experience.
Im not over exaggerating when I say this, but KJ is probably the best barber Ive ever been to. This place may seem a little more expensive than some others but it is very well worth it. Highly recommend!
Classy environment with talented, professional barbers. By far the BEST barber experience Ive ever had. Kahlil, the owner, and his staff are consistently seeking ways to enhance his clients experience at UpScale Barber Shop.
Best haircut I’ve had in years. Great experience all around. I found my new favorite barber.
My experience at UpScale Barber Shop was one of a kind. I truly had a grand experience. Everything was high quality and I really feel like Im at home everytime I come by. The service is incredible and I would truly recommend this place to anybody and everybody I know.
Very personable and professional. They consistently deliver high quality hair care, styling and cutting. I prefer using them.
Kj and his assistant is the best i get compliments every time i leave i feel like a king when i leave thanks for your hard work and dedication.
The experience @ Upscale is overwhelming. The customer service is impeccable, the service that was provided was beyond a hair cut, the presentation exemplifies a life style. The owner (K.J.) is a Wizard with a pair of clippers and razor. The location and environment of the Barbershop speaks volumes for the name of the business (Upscale)
If you are looking for a good barbershop look no further. One of the best haircuts Ive ever gotten. Owner is a great guy and he runs a great shop.
Only barbershop I will ever go to as long as I live in this area! They get me right everytime! I suggest u make an appointment on the weekends, but if u dont theyll still squeeze u in. Be sure to remember that appointments do come first unless u pay for their next in line service.
When a man walks into a barber shop he is looking for more than a hair cut. A man seeks an experience, a cathartic release from his hectic schedule. Upscale barbershop is exactly the experience every man should enjoy.
Been to KJ twice now, and the level of detail and care he puts into the haircuts is supernatural. It’s evident that he not only cares about the hair but about the clients as well. Very personable and professional
I throughly enjoyed my experience at Upscale bArbershop. It was a rare grooming experience. It had an old school feel that is hard to come by these days. kJ is a wonderful barber and takes care to ensure that I have a quality experience every single time!!!
In a word, UpScale is SLICK. Very professional, detailed, friendly, and well organized. KJ, the owner hooked me up with a great cut and shave while I was in town. Definitely stop by if youre looking for a great barbershop experience.
KJ is the closest you can get to the right mix of professionalism, perfectionism, and is personable. This guy knows how to get you a fresh cut.
I heard about Upscale Barber Shop through a good friend and the experience exceeded my expectations. Its a very relaxing and professional atmosphere there. Lets just say you definitely get what you pay for and more. I recommend anyone seeking a new barber in the vinings area with experience and passion for cutting & styling hair, definitely check out Upscale Barber Shop ASAP!! Ask for KJ 👍👍👍
Very polite, clean environment, clean music, great hair cut. I highly suggest this barbershop experience!
I normally dont leave reviews, but this time I have to. My experience at Upscale Barbershop was beyond amazing. This is not your typical barber shop, I went in based off the reviews left talking about how great the customer service was, cuts and atmosphere. Sometimes we can read one thing and what you receive is different, not here. I was expecting to get just a cut, what i actually received was a awesome experience and a great cut. The owner KJ has customer service down to a science. I thought I was going to get just a regular cut and shave.I received Hot towel treatment, facial scrub, cut and shave .I am in town on business, when i come back I know exactly where im going to get my hair cut experience at and who i will refer my friends that travel to Atlanta and need a grooming experience to stop by Upscale Barber Shop . Thanks again KJ
Great service, great quality and attention to detail. Kahlil, the owner, knows how to treat every customer. Super nice guy. I finally found my permanent barber
Best barber shop in Atlanta. My brother Master barber Khalil provides nothing exceptional service and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a barber for life. Hes been cutting my hair for years, wouldnt trust anybody else.
What an awesome barber shop experience! Cleanest lines I have ever received. Staff is a riot!
Amazing customer service / cut but even more of a great stand up guy. Highly recommended
Always 100% satisfied with my sons haircut. I will not take my son anywhere else. Loyal customer since August 2015.
KJ is the best barber ever. My husband & I was extremely pleased with his service!!!
Wonderful place, anyone in the metro area should definitely consider going here for the comfort and relaxation !
The services provided are second to none. Clean, friendly, diverse environment. This shop separates the Gentlemen from the Men!
One of the best haircuts and shaves you can get in the city. Highly recommended!!!
My first time at this Shop was fantastic...I am looking forward to visiting again...maybe tomorrow so if you thinking about going here stop thinking and just go :) worth it.
KJ was my barber and he did a magnificent job. Id highly recommend this shop to anyone who wants quality service
Best haircut Ive had in a long time.Spent plenty of time with me.Hot towels, and real shaving cream.Also, he knows how to use a straight razor like a ninja.
Great cut even better service. KJ is a true professional! Really appreciate the attention to detail and open after hours.
Big shout out to KJ and the other barbers for having a vision & running with it full speed. Keep up the great work.
Great experience, definitely worth it, does more than the regular barber, everyone makes you feel welcome. Will definitely be coming back.
I feel like a million bucks after I walk out of there...next level cuts, customer service is great and KJ the owner treats you like a champ everytime!!!!!
My overall experience here was great, neat atmosphere and well organized...nice cut too.
Nothing like a Cosey Upscale aptospher, and Quality old school vibe. Nice Shop.
This is absolutely one of the best kept secrets in Atlanta. The shop is professionally run, the service is impeccable, and the quality of the cuts are the best Ive seen in a long time.
Perfect combination of expertise and customer service. KJ is the best the profession has to offer.
I stopped by Upscale Barber Shop after a long day in the office. Im a Finance Manager who works in corporate America and rarely leave reviews but when you experience the royal treatment and level of customer care I received you want to share with other patrons who may also be looking to indulge in a spa resort ambiance with 5 star service at a value. Upon entering the shop I was greeted with a warm smile and soft relaxing music. Although I had to wait behind a father a son who were also getting a haircut I didnt mind as the seating area is plush with relaxing seats. I strongly recommend setting an appointment as four more patrons entered before I sat down for my haircut. My barber KJ listened to my instructions and gave me the best haircut Ive had...ever...and Im in my 40s. I strongly recommend local and out of town patrons to stop by Upscale Barber Shop for an unparrelled unique experience. Ask for KJ as his professional services will give you a surreal experience. I will definitely be back soon!
Best barber shop in town. Ask for Dwayne! Hell do you right.
A barbershop with first class service from the hair washing to the hot towel with the shave. Definitely an upscale experience with the barbershop feel.
Ive been faithfully coming to Upscale Barbershop for years. It is truly a excellent, clean environment with even better service!
Hands down the best barber in Atlanta. The overall experience and customer service KJ brings is unreal, makes you feel like family.
If I could give 5 more stars I would! KJ you are amazing! You always take care of me, I always enjoy talking with you and I always leave beyond happy with the haircut. I have yet to get a haircut by KJ that I have not got many great compliments on. Thank you KJ! And if you are reading this do not go anywhere else, sit down and let KJ do his thing. You will not be disappointed.
