Prior to this review, Ive only had one bad haircut; now its two.I came in a Thursday afternoon when there were no people ahead of me. An older Hispanic (maybe Native American) lady asked if I was looking for someone in particular, I said no and she had me sit in her chair.Now, usually barbers place a stripe of sanex paper to prevent the barber cape from coming in direct contact with a customers neck, but this lady did not. She just put the cape on and proceeded to aggressively cut my hair. It was incredibly uncomfortable the entire duration of the cut. I asked for a medium fade with a line up and I was left with a low-fade (at best) and a poorly done lineup. I had to ask her to redo the edge up, since there was no definition on the corners and it was CROOKED! Very frustrated.Never coming back to this location again. If you are new to the area, pay the extra few dollars and go to Boardroom Salon in Rice Village. Much better service and they have professionals taking care of you.

Great place, clean, all precautions related to COVID-19 protection are taken. For kids, there are snacks and candy. Haircut was fast and precise. I paid $20 for my haircut, but I heard students have discount.

Completely ruined my hair, and all I asked for was a simple trim. Made it uneven and just look horrible. And the man was breather heavy into my ear the entire time, like he was out of breath just from cutting hair. and reeked of cigarets. DO NOT USE THIS PLACE

Great place to get a hair cut my son loves this place. The barber named Arthur does good fades and taper hair cuts. Please stop by. Been going here for years..

Good haircuts for an affordable price. Robert is my go-to barber

Best barber shop hands down

Based on the review I had read I gave this place a good fair shot.But honestly, my haircut experienced was horrible. You want to read this too.The gentleman right when you come in was extremely polite, it does make you feel really welcome to the shop. So since I am new. He asked me if I had someone in particular or anyone, so I said I’m new, and the same gentleman sent me to a chair (I like to call the Thorne) where I had to wait for couple of mins for the person who will cut my hair.Everything was great until the lady came in. She was the only lady at the shop. THE ONLY ONE!And she cut my hair (well, she screwed up my hair)She even asked me if I was frustrated the way I look, honestly I am very respectful with others’ work but someone needs to get this lady to take hair cut lessons again!!!BUT YES I AM FRUSTRATED. I paid $20 andnow I have to look for another barber to fix her mess.If you decide to come to this place, I highly will recommend you not to get the lady I was observing the others barbers and I was jealous how they were being treated. (You know what I mean when we get our haircuts you see the way the others do cut hairs to the other mates)Honestly what she did, I could have done it myself. With those $20 I could have gone to Walmart buy me one of those cheap kits and be done with it. But something in me was telling me, you’ll look better if you go to a professional.Anyway, she looks kind of Native American but I think there’s some Latina or Hispanic in her. She had that type of latína/Hispanic woman attitude so that’s how I conclude that there’s some latina/Hispanic in her. Not trying to be racist or profiling people, but if your girl is latina/Hispanic or you have dated one for more than 30 days, you kind of know what I’m talking about.Oh before I forget, she did asked me if I wanted to get cut the top, I mean of course I do. It is kind of long. But I asked her how do you measure it, she’s like, oh I do it by inches. Then I asked her. How much length is an inch then? Guys, this is what she said and did (she grabs one of the hair brushes and she says oh it’s kind like this. She points at some of the tips of the thing) and then I go hhmmm well, do 1 inch, she’s ok with that and I asked her “do you think it is too much, is it gonna look good?” She goes, “I don’t know and don’t care, that’s your hair.” I was like oh shït and coconuts this is lady is something else. So I change my mind and decided not to cut nothing on top.I paid, and as I was leaving; the nice gentleman at front kindly wished me a good day and told me he wished me to comeback. ( now I am not coming back but, I am not rude and I was not gonna say that to him, so I reply with a kindly smile to him)Again, do not request or do not allow the lady to do your hair cuts my fellow mates. I took it for the Pack today, but I hope this review helps to save some good mates out there.Remember she looks kind of Native American and a bit of Latina/Hispanic.This review is intended as support for follow mates and protect them from entering a situation like mine. Not racist or profiling.

Old school barber shop, been around 50 years, Robert the owner is the OG and a great person, very friendly. Chris and Arthur are my favorite but their all great! Highly recommend, A++

I love the customer service here very nice people! I came cause the reviews and I wasn’t disappointed! Arthor did my husbands hair cut ! My boyfriend showed him the picture of what he wanted. The man explained what the cut was called and showed him a picture to confirm, very pleased!

Great barber shop😀😀😍

Amazing place for all your Grilling needs, including a great selection of mouthwatering meats!

How this is Barbershop, love all the university pendants from all over the United States. All modern equipment for doing hair my old barber always clip my neck, Robert is like a surgeon, you come out looking like a million bucks! Very sanitized all wore mask.

Outstanding haircuts and service.They are family.Clean safe environment.Been with them for 20 plus years!Prior to me, my father-in-law, from the 70s.

Great haircut, quick and well done and is not expensive though, I had been looking for a new barbershop and I think I found it.

The best barber shop in Houston. Walk-ins, fast, and very good quality. This place has a long history, and many customers have been coming here for years - I even continued to come after I moved further away in the city. I love talking to Robert and he always gives me a great cut. Rice students frequent the place as they give a student discount.

Im 23 and before I went to Times, I had had 2 decent haircuts in my life. Now its 3. Rick Walker was my barber. Good conversation and great haircutting. Five stars for a reason!

Friendly atmosphere, good hair cuts both men and women and prices are good. Place has been open for a long time ago. Its a pleasure to go there. And shoe shines are available.

All of the barbers do a great job. Definitely ask for Rick when you get here though. Ive been getting my hair cut with him for over a year and it always comes out perfect. Conversations with Rick are also a blast, but whenever I dont feel like talking Rick respects that.I always appreciate the student discount too.

Great place. I take my boys once a month. They always do a fantastic job.Every one is very nice

After struggling a lot to finding a good hair cut I find this lady Maria, I get a really good hair cut, look like Im get my barber shop, highly recommend this place, every body also look really professional.

Best haircuts in town!🙏

Love this place. Old school barbershop vibe. Super friendly people. Never a long wait. Plenty of parking. Great hours. Even have a great shoe shine booth in there.

Amazing people,great prices, great environment and great haircut. Def will be going back.

I didnt get a haircut here.My baby daughter had just thrown up all over herself and i quickly pulled into their parking lot to clean her up.The guys inside noticed what was going on and brought me out towels to clean with and even a hoodie for her to wear.She was very sick and upset and had they not come to our aid it wouldve been a horrible long ride home.These dudes were great. Thank you so much!!

Vintage looking shop with character. After going to many places I finally found this olace and quickly settled on it. Arthur does the best fades around. Hands down one of the best barber shops out there.

Great barber shop!

Classic barber shop and the best quality for your buck. My barber, Martin, cut my hair with the best fade that Ive had in a while. Been in Houston for 2 years, and finally found my spot. Im done with the ~$50 haircuts in Midtown/Galleria area.

Great barbers. Can be busy sometimes but worth the wait. Been here a few times and would definitely recommend if looking for new place. Also reasonably priced

After about a year of looking for a place where I can get my monthly haircut (recently moved here), I finally think I found it. Theyre very reasonable on price (18$ for a haircut and straight razor neck shave is amazing value), and consistently good (been there thrice now). Will probably stick around here till my hair thins out and I no longer need a haircut (unfortunately this may be pretty soon). Also the folks are nice and this shop has been around for ever (apparently since the 60s when it was in rice village)

Hit up Arthur for a 5 star cut.

Always a great place to go get a haircut.. Very professional.

Been going for 30 years, last 10 on and off but still come back. Family owned, good people.

So far, every barber Ive had has been very friendly and given good hair cuts. Never a very long wait. Great prices and a student discount.

Great barbers, all with sociable personalities. Exceptional quality for a mans haircut.Youll be greeted when you arrive and wished a good day as you depart.

Best barbers in town! Stop by for great service and bring your shoes if they need shining.

Friendly place with safety protocols in place.

Reliable after 35+ years

Quick and dirty haircut, one of the worst Ive had. The barber was really rough and hurt me with the comb and the shop was like a subway station. They dont even face you towards the mirror.

Been going to Times for a while. Robert (first chair as you enter) and Arthur (4th chair to right) are, in my humble opinion, the best. When I used to have a traditional haircut it was Robert every time. Got a strt razor shave around ears and neck and looked cleaned up.Now I get the new style fade / high and tight with slicked back top with Arthur. He is a master, He too shaves sides and back finished with a cool scalp rub, and I leave feeling and looking like a million bucks. And reasonable prices too. I always get compliments on my new do who ask who cuts my hair and what product I use (pomade), even from guys. Go see these guys. The best.

Very friendly people and I’ve always left happy.

Really nice cuts with friendly and professional people. Also they give student discounts which is nice!

My boss talked so well about this plave for months and he finally convinced me to try it. I had some lady that one of the other reviews talks about. I think her name is Maria. She cut my hair and it was something I could have done at home. Didnt even give me an edge up on the front or the sides. She needs to be careful getting close to peoples ears with that air hose. It loud and has alot of pressure to be pointing it in someones ear. I was highly disappointed. Its like she doesnt even care about cutting hair anymore. I had to go somewhere else for them to clean it up. I didnt even want to ask her to finish it because it still had hope my haircut would come out nice. I haf a wedding to go too that day so I ended up cutting it way too close.

Worst haircut I have ever gotten!!!! Went in to get a trim up and the old guy just said I’m cutting more than an inch off half way through my haircut! Not to mention the uneven line he left on my head and the cuts around my ears. Im never going back there!!!

Great barber shop for a good price for the area! when everyone in this area wants to charge up their hair cuts just because they are in the galleria area you can get your haircut here for a good price! HIGHLY RECOMMENED!

Great cut and shaved neck to boot. Shoe shine while you wait.

Great service and great cuts here.

A true classic barber shop. Well priced. Best shoe shine i have had in years.

Great fades! Get Arthur to cut your hair he will give you a straight edge razor finish

Ive generally always had a good experience here in that its such a cool and friendly place! theyll also use a straight razor on your neck to shave it.my only issue was that i asked for a two on the sides and a four on top once but the haircut i ended up getting was definitely way way longer than those values but i had a bad headache that day so i told myself that id just deal with it and that its probably a pretty good haircut either way. alas, when it dried out, i noticed that it was quite lopsided and i had to resort to cutting my own hair like i usually do. ill still give this place another shot, but it was certainly a disappointing hiccup for a normally stellar reputation.

Great place to get a haircut.

Rick is the man.

Ive been going to Times since it was on Times street. It is the only barber shop that I will go to. The barbers all remember you and how ya want your hair cut no matter how long its been since your last visit.

My nephew only lets James cut his hair he does a great job and has very good patients with Isaiah

I’m impressed with my visit here the staff is very friendly and welcoming. I will be returning soon 🤘🏾

Great shop and a great tradition

Great haircut every time! They remember you and have an old times feel to their service model.

Ive tried this place 4 times and have only been okay with the cut 1 time.The final time that I went, I think my stylist was high. He was behaving strangely and gave me an awful cut. The sideburns were bad, the back was an uneven round shape, the front was uneven, and the top was cut more on the left than on the right, so it was uneven.I went to a different place after to fix it and the new stylist said that whoever I went to before didnt know what they were doing.I wanted to like this place because it was so convenient, but Ill never go again.

Fantastic Old World Service with stripey Pole and a straight razor neck shave

Fantastic mens haircuts at a great price. No nonsense!

Had a terrible experience and I will never go back. The barber that cut my hair appeared to be real young and even admitted that he was fairly new to cutting hair and had completed barber college less than a year before. The haircut was terrible to start with. It was uneven. It wasnt a shock to me how uneven it truly was due to the fact that he rushed through it. He did not take the time and care that I have come to expect from barber shops. On top of him rushing, it also was extremely uncomfortable. At times, it even hurt. When the haircut was completed (about 12 minutes in), I was shocked. It was more like an experience I would expect from Supercuts. The straight shave on my neck was also an unpleasant experience as he rushed that as well. He didnt bother to even use aftershave on the area he shaved. I got home, saw the mess of my haircut and went to another barbershop where I had it fixed.I choose to go to a barber shop over a place like Supercuts for the extra time and care that goes into the haircut. In turn, I pay a little more. I expect a better experience from a barber shop. Im sure there are fine barbers here, but I will not be returning.

Legit, reasonable. Every reason to go out and get a classic cut is here.

Robert and his staff are friendly, high-quality mens (and boys) barbers! Vey covenient; just the corner barbershop youre looking for.

Ive always been getting haircuts from asian hair stylists (because they understand asian hair the most), but while I was in Houston, it was hard to find both a relatively inexpensive one and a good one. I asked my friends and they told me to go the times barbershop and ask for Robert.The haircut was honestly okay, Robert was a really nice guy and explained everything. The problem was that he used his razor for everything, and wasnt able to get the haircut I want without actually using scissors. He shaves you and uses compressed air to blow away small hairs that get really annoying, and the haircuts pretty cheap too. I myself will probably invest in a little more money and get an asian hairstylist, but if you just need a cheap place to get a haircut, this is the place for you.

Whether it was my crap luck or a bad barber, this was by far in my 26 years the worst hair cut I have ever gotten. I went to try it out and the barber (a person about my age) was rough when cutting and left my hair extremely off balance. I told him how I wanted it and he tried again to fix it but nope! it was ruined. I will never come back here again in my life, not even if its for them to correct it. I will never let that barber touch my hair and I regret even paying for it. the only thing keeping me optimistic, is the fact that hair grows. But they have lost my business before it even began.

I have never had a better haircut in my life. Ever. Arthur for the win!

Great haircut. Great price. I got a student discount.

Never had a haircut here, but its a great place for shoe shines! Low prices and he does a thorough job!!!

Very clean and professional,more than pleased with the haircuts Arthur gave my boys . highly recommend. 👌

Excellent

$16 for a student haircut that wasnt even done correctly. Booo 👎 not cool at all.

Gat dang, supermang. I walked in here not knowing what the hell I should expect, but I found out that if you want a buttfondlingly great haircut by a friendly middle-aged latino man then this is the place to go. I got the best haircut of my life, and it cost me less cause Im a student. So unless you suck a lot and dont look good with a haircut fit for Adonis, then come to Times and get your hair cut by that middle-aged latino guy.

Rick is awesome! Great cut and shave!

Convenient, quick and very reasonable priced

Great old fashioned barbershop

Fantastic service with a great atmosphere. All you could ask for in a barbershop.

Old School Barbershop! I love it, what every man needs when he needs a proper hair cut!

Awesome atmosphere great people!

Great price and nice people!

Speedy, courteous, and high-quality service.

Straight razor, hot towel and soda machine. A real barber!

Fast and clean work.

Friendly barbers, great haircut!

Old school barber
