Ann is a wonderful person and the owner of this shop. Also she is a very talented Barber. I usually get my haircut by Sabina who is phenomenal all around and gives me the best cuts Ive ever gotten. Also very interesting conversations and a good atmosphere. 5 stars.

It was okay. Not a bad haircut by any means but not as much attention to details as others. Got me in super fast, got a cold beer, and the staff was friendly.

Outstanding haircut from Cale. Efficient service, and excellent technique. I didnt order a beer, which was offered upon entry... but their selection was exceptional. Price was very reasonable for this excellent barbershop!

I’ve lived many places and this barber shop has been the best I have ever been to. The staff helps each other clean to make sure barbers are ready for their next appointment.Also, huge shoutout to John Rocha who cut my hair better than I could have ever asked for. I (thankfully) never have to try another barbershop in the springs!

Can’t say enough about this great local business. Anne and the other barbers who work here are so professional and talented. It’s a great atmosphere and my hair has never looked so good. It’s a joy to go and get a haircut. If you have the time get a straight razor shave as well. Draft beer doesn’t hurt the overall experience :) - but even if you skip the beer you will not be disappointed. Talented and friendly folks here. I highly recommend!

Mall Santa recommended this place to me last Christmas. After putting it off for a year, I finally decided to try this shop out. Ive now been a regular customer for about 4 months. Lo provides excellent haircuts, beard trims, and conversation! My wife is incredibly happy that Lo trims my beard now, rather than trying to do it myself. Bonus: easy online scheduling and beer on tap!

Great place to relax have a beer and get a great haircut. Lorena was my barber. I thought the first time she cut my hair was great but it got better every time after. Her job is to make you look great and she is good at it. Best shop I have ever been to

What a great barbershop. Kind, professional and very skilled. If you are having a beard or growing one go talk to Sherri. She is not only a great barber and pleasant person, she also know a thing or two about beards, she is very experienced. They just got a new regular customer.

Talk about an excellent experience! The atmosphere was great, you could tell yhat the staff loves what they do and loves working with one another. There was tons of fun banter going on constantly across the shop and the quality of service is top notch. I had the privilage to have my hair cut and beard trimmed by alan and the man is a true master of his craft. I will not be going to any other barberahop in town from now on. Thanks you guys!!!

Review β„–23

Anne is the best. I used to go to her when she was with a previous shop and followed her to Blades & Brews. I actually moved away for a few years and then sought her out again because I enjoy her haircuts so much. She takes the time to learn what you like and dont like and then makes suggestions that end up making the cut that much better. Conversation is tops, the price is incredible for the service, and the atmosphere of the shop is exactly what you think of when you think of a classic haircut. You can tell all the barbers here are interested in not only giving great service, but in building a community. Cant recommend them enough.

Review β„–28

Stumbled on to this place by accident. I was literally driving around town looking for a barber over the typical chains. They were able to squeeze me in as a walk-in which in my experience isnt typical of barbershops. Place is well kept and the staff take time to interact with people walking in regardless of how busy they are. Lo scooped me up. She took her time and conversation didnt feel forced. Towards the end she offered an actual straight razor finish. Again most places dont offer. Once finished, she cleaned up all the small hairs with a warm towel and rinse, I fell asleep till she took the towel off. Ive been going to Blades and Brews ever since and I request Lo for all my hair and beard needs.

B&B is my go to spot. They deliver fleek haircuts and they dont charge an arm an a leg for basic services. Not to mention they always have good brews on tap if you ever get thirsty.

Sabrina did a phenomenal job on my haircut and beard trim. I was offered beer and and very high quality luxury experience. 2 hot towels during my beard trim and I was even lined up with a straight razor all the way around (head and beard). The vibe of the shop is also very good. I will be back. Yall are doing it right.

Review β„–54

I booked online and really enjoyed the experience here. Super chill shop with good local draft beer available. My barber, Lo, did a great job with asking what I wanted out of my haircut. She delivered a great fade and it perfectly matched what I needed. Bonus points for her sense of humor. I also liked that they have Layrite Pomade available instead of the Suavecito stuff I see everywhere else in town. I will be back!

Review β„–55

Absolutely loved my experience at Blades & Brews! I arrived early, anxious for my first cut in a couple months as barber shops have been closed. It gave me a chance to have a pint, they had Cerberus on draft one of my favorite local breweries and a chance to talk with the owner, Anne Frazier while she waited for her next appointment. Everyone was very friendly! Sabina cut my hair and Im still extremely happy with it 2 weeks later, I would highly recommend Blade & Brews!

Review β„–57

Sherri was 20 minutes late, and then she cut my appointment 10 minutes short because she had someone else waiting. The haircut was so careless, with chunks and strings that were way longer than the rest of the hair, that I booked a repair cut with another shop.

Blades & Brews is an awesome local spot to get a great haircut and relax in a retro 50s environment. Very welcoming staff, and its easy to get lost in conversation and nostalgia at this conveniently located, boutique salon. Sabina is the best, she cut mine and my sons hair, and that girl is an artisan!

Annes scissor skills are only matched by her ability to make you feel comfortable in her chair. If you need a haircut and need some facial TLC or just would like try a new beer this is your place. My wife always loves how I look after leaving Blades & Brews.

Review β„–72

Anne is a wicked awesome barber. Despite my lack of style she has always been able to translate my shoddy and lackluster descriptions of what it is that I want into an awesome haircut. It never fails to live up to what I had been picturing in my head. Plus you get a beer, what more could you possibly ask for?

I don’t know Anne well, but can certainly say she made me feel very welcome and comfortable on my first visit to her shop. Laid back atmosphere in a great location :)John has been my barber for almost a year and I hope he’ll be my barber forever! From my first visit I could see he takes pride in his profession and truly cares for his customers. He’s very knowledgeable in all types of cuts and pays attention to every detail. If you’re looking for good beard-work, education, and a barber who seems to own an endless supply of hats (couldn’t leave that out, John!) look no further! Thanks guys!

Anne is one of the most talented and dedicated barbers Ive ever had the pleasure of going to (about 2 years now). I cannot overstate how great of an atmosphere shes crafted with B&B.

Going in for a cut is guaranteed time where I can relax among good company.Very stoked to see this venture grow and thrive. Thank you, Anne and co. !

So excited Blades & Brews were finally able to open. The experience was top notch from the appointment scheduling to the actual experience. Even with all the restrictions the results were phenomenal! After 6 weeks of COVID lockdown my hair was a disaster! But the results were clean and professional. I have found my goto shop for my hair.
