I never write reviews but I had the best experience! As a hairstylist myself I know a good cut. Patrick gave me one of the best short cuts and did so efficiently. I highly recommend Patrick!!!
Stellar group of folks. Super clean. Grab a free beer while before your cut. Good tunes playing.
I think Katie just gave me the best haircut I’ve ever had. I’m not over-hyping this. I will have to give it a day or two to be certain, but it’s up there. The place was welcoming, clean and professional. They were also very responsible and safe in regards to wearing and requiring masks. Great experience. Best haircut. I just looked in a mirror to check again… it’s the best. My hair was down to my shoulders, and I’ve been nervous about going short again. This is my place from now on.
First time visiting this location and Katie did incredible job. So professional, friendly, and personable. Its folks like Katie that are a true asset to the business will result in repeat clientele. I can get a good haircut in a lot of places but its people like her that will bring me back and keep me there! Thank you!
I went into Honest Barber with a head of hair that hadnt been cut in a long time and an idea of what I wanted for a new haircut and Terry absolutely nailed it! Scheduling online was really easy and I was in and out of the shop in a little over 30 minutes. I will definitely be a return customer.
Honest Barber is best in class. Terry absolutely crushed it. I went to Travis a couple months ago and had such an amazing experience I booked again. He unfortunately had to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances but Terry picked up his slack and squeezed me in ;) She was incredibly courteous, has an incredible attention to detail, and is a great person to hang with. 10/10 you should head here for your next cut.
So I’m a new implant from NYC! Went to couple of barbershops trying to match my excellent previous barber hair cuts, then I landed on Honest Barber! Terry was a very nice lady, with a very nice sense of humor. After a quick chat about what I wanted and what she recommended, I had a very nice haircut, the first I like in Austin.Definitely recommend it, and some surpluses are: easy parking, pretty nice neighborhood to cruise in or hike after the haircut!
Started going here when I grew a beard and needed someone to trim it for me. Victoria cuts my hair and does a great job. I enjoy having someone take the time to give me a good quality haircut. Even for a bald person, it makes a difference. Go. Pamper yourself.
Amazing experience. Terry did an amazing job. I highly recommend her and this shop. I told her what I wanted and she crushed it. She took me from quarantine to fresh and clean! 5 stars!
I used to be basic af, but after linzy cut my hair all the girls at barbs (and a few guys) wanna get with me. i got a promotion at work finally after 5 years. everyone laughs at my jokes now even tho they aren’t funny. even my dogs like me more. book with linzy all of your wildest swoopy hair dreams will come true.
Great place to go. Victoria does an amazing job and its really fun
The name pretty much says it all. This place is great keep up your style. Friendly staff and online appointment booking keep me coming back.
Victoria is so great! Really happy with my haircut. Cool little space, too.
I moved to Austin in February 2020 and I knew I needed to lockdown a new barber ASAP! After trying out a few different barbers with varying results, I finally booked an appointment with Ethan at Honest Barber and I haven’t been anywhere else ever since. Ethan cuts hair very well and I’m clean cut every time I walk away from his chair. I’ve been to many barbers across the US and I’ve had people tell me they don’t cut down to the skin, or that they won’t, or that they can and they don’t know how to at all (I’m talking about you Super Cuts).What to expect: The shop doesn’t pretend to be anything that it’s not. There’s no corny theme and from what I’ve seen, all of the barbers cut hair very well. If you plan on getting cut here BOOK AN APPOINTMENT because that’s the best way to get in a chair (they book up fast so make sure you plan ahead of special events etc). The shop is small and may seem cramped for some people but it’s super clean and well spaced out. Prices are pretty standard for Austin (I pay about $40 minus the tip). Just book now!
Vic was great! Very friendly, detailed haircut. Nice clean shop. Will definitely be coming back.
Vic is an incredible hairstylist who cleaned me up real nice after the pandemic blues. I cannot recommend this shop enough and will definitely be visiting again
Linzy was great. Looking forward to seeing her again for my next haircut
I love this place! Cool vibe, cozy atmosphere, and great barbers. Victoria is the best! Thanks for a job well done and for brightening my day. 👍
I always look forward to getting my haircut by Matt! Its always a very high quality cut and a great conversation. Customer for life here! I will definitely go see him at his new location as well, The Little Barber. Cheers.
Best barber I’ve ever been to!!
Every man should go to a barber and this place is bringing back the golden age of barbershops. I was getting married in two days and my previous haircut was not looking good. I did a little searching online and I could immediately see the attention to detail and love for the craft that these guys have. It was also my first time with a beard trim and they exceeded my expectations on that and my perfect bald fade. Easy online scheduling. Feel manlier!
Good haircut, good price, great communication before and during cut. Covid protocols were solid.
This place is the best! They adhere to the strictest covid guidelines so please wear a mask yall! Anyway the good people at honest barber know what theyre doing. Its always busy, so make sure you make an appointment, especially over holidays and other special occasions. Victoria is my girl! I always look forward for a great conversation and fresh cut from her! They have the best music playing and its always clean and bright inside. Very pleasant! Only con I would say would be parking as bike farm(same location)gets packed and its not easy to find a spot. Other than that, I will continue going here as long as theyll let me lol. Love it!
Great barber. Been here multiple times with many different barbers never had a bad experience and they all are very talented. I was never know exactly what to tell them but they always do a great job of asking the right questions where I am always happy with the end result. They are also handling the pandemic and safety procedures really well.
I can talk about how great the haircut was but quality haircuts are easy to come by. What makes Honest Barber special and unique is the friendliness, deep conversation, and genuine interest that Matt and Bob bring to every person that walks in their doors. I highly recommend stepping into this magical barbershop off Burnet!
Throw a dart at their list of barbers and youre going to get a quality cut every single time.
This is the kind of buisness that you want to support. You can’t go wrong with any of the talented and professional barbers that take tremendous pride in their craft. The name says it all.Grateful to have a locally owned community barbershop in the neighborhood.
Cool local barber shop. I had an appointment with Travis. He was incredibly helpful, answered a bunch if my questions, and gave me a nice touch-up. Do recommend!
Honest barber is my favorite barber Ive been to. They even accommodate for covid and make you feel safe while getting the best haircut in town. I specifically wait to get my cut from Travis, this place is the best!
Very recommended. Easy to book an appointment online, super friendly and competent staff. Victoria is awesome!
Needed a haircut, had no appointment. Only waited 15 minutes. Quality stylist.
I have a difficult head of hair to cut — thick and fine with lots of cowlicks and a part with a temperament all its own. This was easily the best haircut I have ever had. Alexis was patient and careful to sculpt a style that worked with the nuances of my mop, and was workable post-haircut.
Just wanted to let y’all know how happy I was with my visit today. I’ve lived in Austin for 4 years and have struggled to find a barber I liked until now. Eric did an exceptional job!
Tried to find a place after my old barber shop shut down, and I wish I had come here throughout my time in Austin! Alexis is one of the best barbers around, but the whole staff is top notch. Great service and haircuts. Good for students, too.
I have trusted about 4 people to cut my hair over the last 30 years. After 15 years using the same barber up in the DFW area, I switched to Matt at Honest Barber ATX. In addition to doing a GREAT job cutting my hair, Matt is a great guy and theyve created a fun, comfortable, clean environment. I highly recommend them to everyone!!
Great Barbershop. Regan always cuts my hair the way I like. Friendly, laid back environment. Scheduling is easy as well.
Professional. Kind. Masterful. And funny. That was my experience when I walked into Honest Barber. Alexis took the time patience and understanding to get to know me and what I wanted and then used that knowledge to make me feel confident, happy, and I honestly left a smile on my face. As a person who never felt good about their hair and has confidence issues. This was one of the best if not the best haircut I have ever had. The customer service and the level of skill Alexis practices is sadly a lost art now. Well done. Bravo.
Killer haircuts and a great atmosphere. Alexis has always given me perfect cuts. The appointment system is easy and the time estimates were nearly perfect. They accept walk-ins but everyone there seemed to have appointments when I went.
This is the first time Ive been to a barbershop that didnt just have older men working who specialized in buzz cuts. I had an appointment with Travis and never really know what I want, or at least how to express it right. This time I found a picture, showed him, and he made it happen. I rarely feel great after a haircut but I was definitely peacocking today after getting my haircut yesterday. Its modern, stylish, and cool and I love it. Travis is super nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. Will definitely be going back!
Im so glad to have found a shop that is comfortable, friendly, clean and run so efficiently. Ive known my barber Bob for many years now and I have never once been unhappy with my cut. The barbers at Honest Barber have a unique ability to provide the cut and style you desire while simultaneously offering suggestions and ideas that keep your look modern and fresh. Bob works with you to find a style you may not have realized is perfect for you. He hasnt been wrong yet. The barbers at Honest Barber are all skilled artists!!
I moved to Austin in late April. Being in a much bigger city than I previously was I was excited to experience new barbershops. However every couple weeks I tried a new high end barbershop and I left knowing I wasn’t going to go back. Until Honest Barber. The staff is all super chill and Alexis always makes sure I leave with what I want. Takes his time to make sure all those lines are perfect. Finally found my new spot.
I was given a gift card from my GF and it turned out to be one of the best presents ever. Usually nervous to try out a new place. Matt has assembled a talented crew and relaxed old school barbershop vibe. I had a great haircut and conversation with Matt. I didn’t give him much to go on but we discussed my style and needs and came out with a stylish low maintenance cut. I lived in NYC and LA and this is my favorite barbershop, true craftsmanship. Recommending this place to colleagues at my firm and coming back in a couple weeks for a straight razor shave.
Awesome barber for an extremely competitive price! My friend recommended this place to me and he specifically said mentioned Chris. He took his time and made my cut look perfect. These guys know what theyre doing. Its a cozy little barber shop with a beer fridge for while you wait. Its a little difficult to see from the road if you arent looking. Small amount of parking behind the shop. Im definitely coming back.
John has been my barber for about 2 1/2 years now and Ive never had a haircut that was anything less than great. I wouldnt go anywhere else to get a fresh cut. Honest barber is truly top notch
Had a great experience with Regan. Shop is nice, simple, and clean. Appointment system works well and the whole crew was very professional. Easily accessible from Burnet. Prices are fair, too!
I almost dont want to tell others about this place so I can keep it to myself...Bob and crew are top notch. They provide a high quality haircut with best in class service. On top of that, their appointment booking system is effortlessI cant recommend this place enough. Keep it up!
Ive been getting my cuts from Bob for years, and Im beyond happy and proud that hes opened up a shop that he can run on his own, & the way it should be. Chill vibes, no frills and excellent cuts. If youre unsure about where to go for a good cut, look no further!
Staff here are real groovy. Always on point with my fades. Easy to schedule on the website. Its that neighborhood barbershop that you look forward to coming back to every few weeks.
Recently moved to Austin and was looking for a good barbershop. A colleague of mine recommended Honest Barber so I gave it a shot. Loved the experience! Highly recommend Bob.
New to Austin and was worried I wouldn’t find a solid barber here. Couldn’t have been more wrong. I came across Honest Barber and Mason has taken care of me perfectly. Safe to say I’ll be a regular of his.
Came in to get a skin fade from Drew and couldn’t have been happier. Super cool atmosphere and a great haircut. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Mason - wow! I came in with the haircut in mind Ive been trying to get from other barbers in Austin for the past year. Not only did he know the actual name of the haircut, he even knew the history behind it. He did exactly what I wanted! He also took into account my cowlicks which no one ever does and tailored my fringe around them. Hes an artist! I also enjoyed the complimentary beer 😁
My man Chris has stellar craftsmanship. Keeps my fades right and my comb over slick. Real personable dude as well. 🤙🏻Overall great atmosphere, went to a few of the big names in ATX before finding this spot, and it’s safe to say I’m not going anywhere else.Bonus: fridge is always stocked with cold brews and brew brews.
Best barbershop in town
Mason is awesome. Professional. Interesting. Highly skilled. Beard-Wizard. Easy to book online. Great atmosphere. 6/5 straight razors up!
Simple appointment booking system, welcoming staff, and unmatched cuts...what more could you ask for? While I often see the same barber, I always pay attention to everyones work and I dont think you can go wrong here with anybody. I highly recommend this place.
Honest barber Austin is an all star crew of all the best barbers from different shops around Austin coming together to form an award winning team. You won’t be disappointed!Their style, professionalism and finesse are off the charts.
My go to once or twice a year w Alexis Ramirez
I’ve been going here for 6 months and have never left disappointed. My barber, Alexis Ramirez, has a great eye for detail and style. HOT TIP: make an appointment, don’t walk in.
Probably the best barber experience Ive had so far. They make it easy for me to enjoy getting my hair cut. Schedule ahead of time as they are always booked!
Super chill/low stress place. Cozy waiting area + online appt system + welcoming staff + free quality beer and sparking waters = the best haircut of my life.Skylar is the man- highly recommend
Came in for a buzz cut and beard trim and I was not disappointed. Cut was good, price was right, and theres even beer in the waiting area. Definitely recommend.
Alexis is the man! Always does a great job with my hair and is a cool dude to boot. The shop is a classic barbershop layout (long and narrow, row of seats, etc), is always clean, and their anti-COVID measures were greatly appreciated. Pre-COVID the complimentary beer was a nice touch as well.10/10 would recommend
I’m pretty new to Austin, and needed to find a barber. I tried Honest Barber based on the reviews, and I’m really glad I did. I worked with Chris who gave my hair style advice, tips on breweries to check out in Austin and most importantly an awesome haircut. Really great experience!
Want a place where you can have a nice conversation? Come to Honest BarberWant a place where you can sit and chill in silence without it being awkward? Come to honest Barber.Want a bad haircut? Avoid honest barber at all costs.This is the place to go if you want a great haircut with great people.
Best barbershop in town, hands down. Easy Scheduling, consistent cuts, and good vibes. The owners work along side the other barbers too. Highly recommend Honest Barber if you are looking for a great cut. This is a place that you can your make barbershop.
The group of barbers manning the chairs at Honest Barber are top notch. They provide an old school quality of service you often miss in todays hustle and bustle. This is a place where your barber learns your name and asks how your trip went the next time they see you because they genuinely care to know. So pop on in for that small town feel in the hip Burnet Road area of Austin and get yourself shaped up properly.
I have been going to Bob for 3+ years and cannot say enough good things about him. I’m happy to go to someone where I can just sit in his chair and he knows exactly what I’m looking for regarding my hair. Apart from being an amazing barber he’s just an awesome human being and it makes my 20+ minute commute worth it. Seriously, don’t even think about it and book an appointment with him or any of the guys at The Honest Barber. You won’t regret it!
First time at this barber shop, but Ive got one of my best haircuts. Nice and clean, better have an appointment.
This entire crew is amazing. This is definitely the best haircut Ive had in a long time. Keep up the great work!
First time here and it was great, the place has a very good vibe on the inside. Christopher did an excellent job cutting my hair. Ill be going back for sure.
I found this place on google and decided to go for it! I just moved back to Austin and as we all know it can be a difficult task finding a barbershop that knows what they’re doing. I set an appointment with Chris. I told him what I normally have done but I also gave him freedom to be creative (he is the professional). I have nothing but praise for the haircut I received. Chris was a true professional, listened to what I wanted, and exceeded my expectations. This place is a rarity with expert barbers who care about the craft and their customers. Highly highly recommend!
So tired of waiting at The Grand. Got all the best barbers here at HB with the forgotten luxury of being able to make an appointment.Dave is my go-to guy. Always does a clean cut and is a pleasure talking to!
Great haircut. Very friendly, accomodating staff. Knowledgeable barbers that are passionate in their craft! Nice space too
This is a shop run by true professional barbers. If you are someone who appreciates quality and great conversation, this is the place you need to be. Do yourself a favor and get your appointment booked right now, you wont regret it.
Been here twice since it opened, and came away with two of the best haircuts Ive ever had. Chris is a stand up guy, highly recommend you pay this shop a visit.
These guys are the best around. Ive been to South Austin Barbershop. Birds, Avenue. and The Grand. You are missing out if you dont check out Honest Barber.
Top notch service from Lydia on my hair and beard trim. She has an attention to detail I’ve rarely encountered in any profession.
This shop is fantastic! Honest Barber has a classic, no-frills barbershop environment but finds a balance by offering new school amenities like free beverages and online booking. Prices are fair, especially considering the quality of the cuts. As someone who has been getting their haircuts and beard trims from Matt for the past 2 years, I can say theres no one else I would think of going to for them.
Bob’s skill with scissors and blade is rivaled only by his encyclopedic knowledge of Morrissey lyrics. One leaves me looking good, the other leaves me wondering about his mis-spent youth. Regardless, it’s great place with good people and first-rate cuts. Give ‘em a shot.
I have been to a lot of different barbers. Honest Barber has BY FAR the best haircuts and most friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I would highly recommend.
I’m from Philadelphia and I’ve only ever let 2 people cut my hair for the past 5 years. My first stop in Austin was this haircut and now I’m debating whether or not I should fly back every 2 weeks to get a cut 👌🏼. Would definitely recommend this!
Amazing staff! Professional and very good at what they do!
Best shop in town. Great barbers great prices. Can’t beat it.
The coolest barbers in town hands down. I’ve been to my fair share of shops and I can safely say this is the best!
Best barbers in town hands down. Great shop. The best Gents. Phenomenal experience.
Really great shop. I came in with a pretty vague description of what I wanted done and left really liking the cut.
I got my hair cut by Bob and Matt a couple times when they still worked at The Grand Barbershop. When i heard that they had opened up their own place on Burnet I knew it would be nothing short of excellent. Expectations met!
Just got a great cut from Dave. It was super easy to book online and get an appointment. I will definitely be back.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ive been twice and gotten haircuts from 2 different people, both were great. I will most deff continue to come back
Matt is fantastic - quality cut and beard trim every time, on time, interesting conversation or silence if I need that. I hear Bob is pretty great too.
Pretty terrible experience. Its so cramped and blazing hot (at least get a blackout curtain or something) that I was sweating like mad the whole time. Furthermore, my barber seemed pretty uncertain and hesitant while not really communicating much. My fade ended up uneven and I was left with a nick on one of my earlobes when they didnt even use a straight razor (the hell?)... honestly, not sure how this place got so many good reviews but its definitely no Shed.
Great friendly guys. Very laid back
This barbershop is AMAZING. The modern atmosphere and personal service is top notch. Bob, Matt and the team are dishing out the best haircuts in Austin, TX.
Lydia is my favorite barber. She always does exceptional things with my hair. I get.many compliments on her work.
