Spoon is The Best Hands Down he takes his time! My son didn’t have any cuts and nicks which always irritates me when the person cuts well but hurts my Son! This King did a wonderful job for My Birthday Boy! Reasonable price and was worth a tip! Check him out! Nice shop and cool energy! The other Barbers were pleasant as well!!
I had my first experience at Fade M Up with Spoon and thoroughly enjoyed my session! He was very easy to communicate with and professional. My cut itself exceeded my expectations, especially since I booked super last minute. He followed all my instructions on how I wanted my cut, as a woman sometimes not all barbers can execute a woman’s cut without it looking too masculine. Spoon did a great job! The owner Will paired me with him and I’m appreciative. The atmosphere at the shop was very pleasant and welcoming. I will be coming back and recommending my friends and family. Thanks again!
Spoon is a gentleman and a scholar. As a female who loves a short cut, I need someone meticulous and understands that I’m a lady. Spoon listens carefully and gives me exactly what I need consistently. I never leave the shop feeling masculine. Spoon’s cuts are always crisp, and fades are clean. Looking for a great cut, don’t think twice.
I go in to see Spoon, who is new there, and he is amazing. Shows care, very attentive and attention to detail, takes his time to make sure its exactly what you want. He has so much passion which is why I keep going back to him. I highly recommend him to anyone!
Spoon has been giving me great, crisp haircuts for the past 6 months now. Im usually skeptical of new barbers but Ive gone out of my way to book Spoon whenever I get my haircut. He listened to my hairstyle preferences then added in his own recommendations and flair to help me out! I constantly get compliments on my haircuts by Spoon!
Got a cut from Spoon- this dude knows what he’s doing and got the good music to enjoy as well. Great, professional cut and old school vibe. He’s definitely the barber to go to
Spoon can do it all. He will give you any haircut you ask, can make fine adjustments tailored to your specific needs like cutting designs or strait edging you & leaves you with a perfect cut everytime. If you had a different vision than you expressed he will easily adapt to make it come true and is always professional plus available. He easily accommodates, looks out and it’s a great guy. He’s new at this barbershop but I’ve followed him to every barbershop he’s gone to, I’d highly recommend getting cut up by spoon. I will add pictures after my next cut.
Spoon is the barber Ive been going to for now three times in a row and every time he cuts my hair he does a great job. Very kind person and keeps in touch with clients and makes sure to tend to their questions and concerns. Overall great experience. 100% would recommend this place and Spoon!
Got my haircut by Spoon. Haircut was perfect, he did it exactly how I wanted it. Paid very close attention to detail and took his time, didn’t feel rushed at all. Service was also great. Great conversation and very professional. Would 100% recommend him!
Man cant say enough about Spoon the Barber. I have been coming here for a few months and every time he cuts it perfect. I would recommend him to anybody!
Spoon is legit! Always on point with his cuts and fades. I’ve been looking for a good barber in the area for a while and finally found one. He also sticks to his appointments and that’s a plus
Nice barbershop in NOVA, took my nephews there AWESOME CUT by barber Derrick ..Highly recommended him and he will makes what time you need a cut very convenient early in the am or late afternoons...
Great barber shop always clean when I walk in. I highly recommend Spoon for your haircuts hes professional and he can cut all kinds of hair. Highly recommend this barber shop!
Best barber in town, hands down! Derrick always gets me right! Highly recommended!
Awesome experience, I’m fairly new to the area and have been searching for a barber I really like and I can say I found one today after getting cut by Spoon. I recommend him 10 times out of 10, he takes his time and very detailed with his cuts…I will be back for sure!
Spoon is the best barber shop over there. if you ever want a haircut from there, always ask for spoon he’ll hook you up!
Very professional and they take their time for a quality haircut. Thank you!! Have been here 3 times and will continue to come again.
Decent place, barbers were respectful and professional. The prices were a bit higher than expected.
Due to the current pandemic, I have been on the edge about getting my sons hair cut. I took him to Fade M up (because I cant cut hair) and Derrick got him right. He wears his mask and cleaned everything before my son touched it, not only that he does a great fade.
Best shop in the area yall should get a chair with Derrick was very professional !
Got cut by Fatz 10/10 would recommend. Clean haircut good conversation! Definitely coming back
Ive been on the hunt for a good black barber that could also do a decent womens fade. It was really delighted to find this place online. I called and was able to book an appointment for first thing in the morning on Saturday. I showed up at 8:00 a.m. and worked with Trey. He did a wonderful job. My edges were so crisp.i will be back.
Always a good time and great haircut at fade em up 💯💯💯
Great hair cut and atmosphere love going to FadeMUp 💯 Thanks Bro Tracy for keeping me fresh Indeed 💯
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! SKILLED WITH KLIPPERS & KIDS🤩! Amazing shop with amazing barbers!I took my son Gio (2Years old with lots of hair) here to get his first hair cut ! These men were so kind & gentle to both my little guy & my daughter! In a plaza of competing barbers, THIS IS THE WINNER of them all. Nice relaxed atmosphere filled with great music & people. Not only did the owner/barber “WILL” give my precious son a Amazing hair cut, they gave him an amazing first experience at a barber shop! Essential for getting my little one excited to come back! Thanks again! Excited for his next cut !
Took my nephew to this shop for his 1st professional cut (he’s 10 yo) and couldn’t be more satisfied. Great environment, good people, good energy, and a great cut. Needless to say this is where my nephew will be going from now on. Highly recommend
Didn’t catch the guys name but he hooked me up with a great cut
Best local barber shop in town. Friendly shop, great with kids, and best fades.
Ive had some good haircuts here, but varies barber to barber. Three place is clean reasonably priced and really nice
Very clean, nice, and professional! And my son loves Mr. Will! Very nice man
Went in today to get my son hair cut. I think the guy name is face or facts.. Something like that but he did a really good job, the place is welcoming and respectful. Highly recommend it
I am happy to see a barber shop with plenty of people working, I walked in and immediately someone was finishing up. I had Tee (Mike) and he did a very good job. He was willing to be patient trying to figure out what worked best until I was happy with it. The haircut is $20 plus $1 for using a card to pay, which is very reasonably priced. The atmosphere is very friendly and everyone there seems to get along well, making for a good environment. Overall, very happy and will be back again for the next cut.
So I was looking for a place to cut my hair I just moved here not too long ago. Tried a few places out but they were alright and over priced. Today my younger brother tells me let’s go to fade em up so I thought let me read some reviews about this place before we go.Read a few about a guy named Dre and all good reviews. So I called to ask if they had time for two (my brother and I) and they guy in the phone said yeah come on down we’ll hook you up.We head down there and I sit down then by coincidence Dre had just finished with a customer asked me if I’m waiting on anyone specific. I said no I’m just trying get lined up. He gave me a hair cut that I loved was exactly what I wanted. And was relaxed and comfortable and talked to him non stop for an hour. Such a great guy the guys there all friendly and nice. The price was 25$ and I was very happy to pay more than that.They just gained a new customer and I have 4 brothers so know for sure they all gained a new barber !
Great barber shop, great atmosphere, and great conversations. Mr. Will gets me right everytime. You cant go wrong with any of the barbers, years of experience and quality is the priority.
Came in today for my first haircut here and Im very pleased with it. Great vibes all around, barbers are pleasant and welcoming. I got a haircut with Will, his work was excellent and very reasonably priced. He pays attention to detail and delivers a high quality cut! I will be back. Smooth experience highly recommended.
Excellent establishment!! Very talented barbers who caters to an ethnic group of people.The staff is friendly, respectful and what truly impressed me was how they greet one another when they all come in to work!!Safe place to bring your kids without hearing foul language or music!!! Love It!!!Thanks Will
Most people would consider this a black barebershop but they make it clear everyone is welcome; banter is great, haircut quality is great, no one treats you like an outsider. Definitely has a dive feel with eclectic redskins graffiti on the walls but the barbers there know their craft and its definitely my new go to sop. Everyone who was finishing up had perfects edges and even fades so these guys (and one lady) definitely know their stuff.
The best place to get a fresh cut in NOVA!
Shout out to my guy will! Always does a phenomenal job, takes his time gets it right every time and always in good spirits and very friendly I highly recommend
Nice place. Clean and good barbers here. I like the humor and fun. It has two TV, usually turned on sports channels. The wait is not bad during peak period but its better to make appointments if you can. Parking is also available each time I have gone there.
Great experience all around with a pleasant and talented staff. Was recommended by my sons friends even though it was 30 minutes away. Worth the drive and will be bringing my other boy here from now on, as well...thanks, Dre!
My son and l just found our new barbershop and new barber Dre. He hooked him up with a fresh new cut. It may be a little bit more $25-30 for a cut but they cut all types of hair so its well worth it considering the improved atmosphere. I didnt hear any cursing or otherwise. Its even better if you area Skins Fan..HTTR!!!
This place is great. Positive energy great place to bring kids for a cut. Tre been cutting me and my son hair for almost 3 years now great barber
I got my hair cut by the only white barber there, big guy. I asked for simple fade and he couldnt do it. I noticed when I got home, the outline of my hair was scraggly, as if I tried to cut my hair myself. Should have seen it as a red flag when he sprayed my hair with water until it was completely damp and then tried to slowly use the razor on my sides in random patches... but the atmosphere felt friendly, even though i didnt say anything. I came in without an appointment. I dont think I will come again. Someone please recommend me a place if they can.
Good service. But it could get expensive if you have frequent haircuts. $23 + tips.
I walked right in and was greeted immediately by my barber, Reggie. He asked me how I wanted my hair cut and beard. He tightened up my beard and smoothed out my waves. I will be returning, indeed
Great atmosphere for men and women! Everyone was very professional and you feel right at home. I’ll definitely be back!
Hit up Sauce🔜
I had a wonder experience here. Owner greeted me with a hand shake n talked me for a little. Made me comfortable because as we all know going to knew barber can be uneasy. My barber Phil was right on time for a my haircut. He did a great job. I have found my new barber.
I went to Fade M Up Barbershop and got a nice cut from a barber named Jacquez. He was professional gave me just what I was looking for. Also the barbershop has a real nice atmosphere. Highly Recommended.
I scheduled for 6 pm and came on time and they had me sitting there until it closed and I left without a haircut
Great shop with great people. Coming from the Alexandria/Springfield area, prices are way better. Will holds me down
Jamel was great. The atmosphere was great. Great conversation and great group. Reminds me of home.
Always a pleasant place to go. Service is on point. Everyone is like family. To top it off ... your cut will be fresh and tight.
This place is legit. I got a awesome cut and trim from Reggie. I highly recommend going here.
Love the friendly barbershop atmosphere especially listening to Will!
My recent visit to Fade M Up was second time Ive had service. As with my previous time, my barber (Tee) was timely, and cut hair as I asked.- Also, Tee, as well as others, offer appointments-- and accomodate walk-ins. In addition, shops atmosphere is quite pleasing (clean; no offensive conversations and/or profanity; and professional).
First and foremost, a barber never knows if he/she is cutting another barber. Sometimes barbers are out of town and really just want someone else to cut them up.With that being said, I am not from Northern Virginia. I was in the area for work. So, based on the great reviews I thought Id stop by this place. When I walked in I said good morning, 1 of the 4 people said something back. Although only the two on the left side had someone in the chair. Funny enough, one of the guys who had someone in the chair was the only one to acknowledge my greeting. Got it, no problem. First ClueThe two barbers on the left side had someone in the chair. The two barbers on the right side had nobody in the chair. Second Clue. I told the gentleman with the dread locks I wasnt waiting for anyone. So, I proceeded to go to his chair. I told him I wanted a 1, with a temple taper.If I wasnt in his chair for an hour, I was in his chair for 50 minutes. This was the longest haircut (only) that Ive had in my life. Third Clue. I went in with about a 2 in hair length. I didnt come in with an afro or dreads on a large length of hair. I didnt have a beard or anything on my face touched up. He lined up my front about 5 times, at least. I stopped counting after that. Guess what you are doing every time you go over my line..you are PUSHING ME BACK. If you have to go over my line 5+ times with some clippers, you are messing me up. If you cant get my line straight after about the second attempt, you have a problem. After he kept going over my line, I knew he was pushing me back, and he was.So, he moved the chair around while still cutting and I stopped. and looked in the mirror for about 2 seconds like I seen a ghost. He asked me was everything good and I lied and shook my head up/down yes. Everything wasnt good. If you are cutting hair, and someone stops and looks in the mirror in Ahh, something is wrong. I didnt say anything because, the hair is gone, the hair isnt coming back so its nothing really he couldve done besides use that spray hair stuff that washes off in the shower.Its an unspoken rule within barbershop etiquette. That is, if you walk into a barbershop and two people have customers and two dont, more likely than not the two that dont have customers arent the best barbers in the shop. I didnt use that rule today and I have to pay for it. Even after being in the chair for about an hour, the people that came in after me were for everyone but him...This guy pulled out a business card, to make sure my line was straight. This has happened twice in my life. If you need a card to see if my line is straight either you are crossed-eyed, need glasses, or an overachiever, or a combination of the three.Now, I said that to say when I leave a barbershop (even with my hairline pushed back) I should look like I had a lineup. My hairline looks like I had a lineup 8 days ago. I was just at this barbershop yesterday. I took the pics today, after looking in the mirror 45 times between then and now to make sure my eyes were not fooling me.Now, the guy can cut I just dont think his lineup game is on par. Listen, FOLLOW THE LINE THAT WAS THERE WHEN I CAME IN. He didnt follow that line. If you follow the line that the guy did before you, well be alright. Dont go making new line marks in my head. Follow the previous line. Based on the size/curve of a persons head/forehead, NOT every edge up/line will be the same. Some people will have more of a straight line, some will have a slight curve, etc.The guy to the right of me, had a guy sit down after me that had a cut AND his beard trim, and still finished way before me. I dont have that I just came from the barbershop from being edged up look. So, my review is based on the individual, rather than the barbershop as a whole.The haircut I believe was 23 bucks. I gave him a whole 40 bucks just because he took his time about an hour (pushing me back) and didnt rush the haircut. I respect that, I guess. I could have given myself a sharper (pushed back) line with a pair of scissors.
Back in 2007 I moved down there, and they hook my head up. Im from providence Rhode Island. Much respect to this barbershop. I will never forget yall.
After two horrible experiences in Manassas where I was allowed to sit in two barbershops and not be addressed by a single barber, I was pleasantly surprise with this barbershop. I was greeted as soon as I came in and was given a business card and was told to schedule an appointment because he wanted to make sure I did not waste my day and he we would be ready for me. Today was the first cut and everything went off well. Very personable with the clients and being retired military, even ended up having barber that served and kept the conversation going and the time flying. New to the area and believe I found my barbershop for however many years I decide to stay in VA.
They did a great job with the cuts when we FINALLY got into a chair. I called ahead to ensure that I wouldn’t be waiting long and asked if they could take me at a certain time, I was told to hold on and he came back and said yes. I got there a few minutes before my appt for my sons and it was slammed packed. I told the guy I called ahead and he acknowledged that I had so I figured we would be seen soon. After sitting there for 30 minutes past the time he said he could take me I was about to leave but received a call from work, so I decided to stay so I could handle the call, 15 minutes later neither of my sons had been seen. I was angry and about to leave when a guy said one of my sons could get in his chair. Again they did a good job with the cuts, but waiting for almost an hour past the time you say you can take me is unacceptable. Also the banter between the barbers was a bit annoying.
Tracy was in a rush told him to fix it said it’s another haircut worst haircut I ever got.. should change the name from fade em up to I can barley cut.
Shout out to brotha Jamal from 08 he held it down
Will and the guys are true artisans, and treat your cut with care. I really enjoy their company and I am beyond pleased with their work. I will absolutely be a repeat customer.
Love this place! I take my 4 & 2 year old sons here and they are great with kids. My little one hated haircuts and wouldnt let anyone cut his hair, I took him here and he loved it from the start, sat in the chair all by himself and sat still the whole time!!!
I came for a cut to get a perm the next day. When I went home to look at it %100, they made the front hair to short to even curl. They jacked it up. If you have straight hair I don’t recommend unless they find a way to give me another one for free and fix it up. Look up ugly bowl cuts and that’s what I look like lmao, not happy with the cut but the people was nice.
Always a good time at the Black mans country club.... Will cuts it right everytime
I agree with most of the comments below. I enjoy this barber shop very much and I’m glad that my children now want to get haircuts again.
Great autmosphere and very prompt - went to see Cathey and she was very tentative and had a great experience- Highly recommend!
Cut was okay but I wasnt quite satisfied unfortunately. Good service tho, kind staff.
I asked for a taper. He ain’t even give me a taper. He gave me a high fade. Not a taper.I called and asked if they did fibers/enhancement before I came and they said yes, I got there and they said they don’t do it. & the guy cut the skin of my head
Theyre very thorough and detailed oriented
Great haircut with attention to detail
Fast service good environment.
Just because Im a Google Local Guide and my fiance loves this shop!! Good job yall!!
My son will only go to Reggie from now one. Thank you!!!
Great Barbers
Go see Mike the owner. Good people.
Dre is a great barber. I just moved to this area. Glad I found someone who knows what he is doing.
Very professional and friendly place always a great atmosphere full of jokes and happiness good place to get a haircut. And if that doesnt get you in here theyll hook you up.
Friendly guys and atmosphere but wasnt impressed by the cut. Messed up my hairline and skipped the straight razor.
Good barbershop. Great barbers.
If you are trying get ripped off go here. Very unprofessional to take advantage of someone new to the neighborhood and over charge.
Friendly environment good barbers
I enjoyed going there until one day I camp back home after a cut with some type of rash on my hairline
Really bad place for haircuts and most expensive, I would reccomend not to go there anymore.
Best cut ever
I dont have to drive to Arlington for a decent cut any more. If you got naps, this is the place to get them bbs cut off.
Fats will get u right no cap
Great service and family atmosphere
Ten stars. I never had a cut or service like this.
Walked in with a picture of tapered crew cut. Left with a buzzed head
Was waiting for a hair cut for about an hour and a half because thats how long it took to cut one guys hair once thats over guy tells me hes booked on appointments worst place to go never coming back and wouldnt recommend it
They are talented, professional and Gd environment
This is my spot. Some people dont understand, the old school barbershop is where its at. Talk to Willie (1st chair) when you go there...very friendly. Beware this is a Washington Redskins shop...guard your feelings.
Great haircuts
Classic, great cuts.
Good people
