I havent used the same barber twice my entire adult life. I will not be going anywhere else after only 2 cuts here. The owner DA is personable, witty, lived a textured life, and is a joy to talk to. She also shows great care for the people that come through the shop, customer and employee a like. 10/10 one of my favorite KC businesses, cant wait to being my friends around.
Gavin was awesome! Great style….. great conversation and top notch service
DA does a better job than any other establishment I have been to in town! I hear good things about the other stylists as well and have referred family and friends to visit them for their hair care needs. Great service, clean environment, friendly staff, great location in The Crossroads, who could ask for more!?!
Ive never had my beard trimmed but decided to go on a Wed. at 10am. I booked online with Gavin and the process was very easy. Gavin did an excellent job and Im very happy with the service. He took the time to ask me questions about what I wanted to and it was obvious he intended to make me look my best, which I appreciate. He was very attentive to proper hygine the entire time and I felt comfortable as a result. I would definitely recommend the establishment and Gavin. Ill be going back.
If you’re thinking about it, do it - I suggest booking with Thundercat Louis(e) on the website, or one of the other people here. I went in confused about what I wanted, and they were amazing. It’s all about the right questions and man was it perfect! Follow the advice and trust them because it works out, best hair I’ve ever had and walked out with way more confidence. If you’re nonbinary and no one’s ever quite gotten the hair right this is the place to be. I cannot recommend this place and Louise enough!
I booked an appointment with them this morning based upon their reviews. My barber was Gavin and I had scheduled for a beard trim and cleanup. I arrived and this place was rustic and had a nice architectural look about it. The set up inside was just as appealing with two levels. The upstairs had a shuffle board and a DJ booth in the corner. The staff was welcoming and friendly and professional. Gavin listened to what I wanted and executed my demands to a “T”. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a beard trim to a full custom cut. Thanks again Gavin and keep up the great work.
Have been bouncing around barbers for over a year since moving. Never left one wanting to go back. Tried this from a friend on Facebook. Went there and was blown away. Owner cut my hair ( fade) and trimmed beard and straight edged a nice line. I have never let anyone cut my beard since having one 8 plus years. My girl was impressed and got her approval and told me to go back. Fellas, if your lookin for a tight cut by someone who cares and need help with beard do yourself a favor and book an appointment.
Thunderbird Louise is an amazing barber and I recommend her 100%. She gave me an amazing line up and cut and I’ll come back any day of the week not only for a cut but because they treat customers like family and they had a great vibe. Love the place and community thank you so much.
I came in for a beard trim up and they took care of me. The location is great incredible views of the down town area. The stylist who did my beard and mustache knew what they were doing. expert work in a super relaxed professional environment. I will be back and I have recommended to many friends!. If you want to look on point whiskey beard is the joint!
Thundercat Louise did an amazing job with a beard groom + cleanup. They were friendly, prompt, and definitely went above and beyond with the service ✌️
Love this place! Gavin did a great job and is very professional! Highly recommend.
Got the beard trimmed up. Louise was my barber, I highly recommend them. Went in they knew exactly what my beard needed and cleaned me up nice.
What a great spot to get a haircut and a drink. Staff is very friendly and great with conversation.
Gotta come see Louis(e)Awesome very talentedChill and relax place
Fantastic place! I went as a walk-in and they worked me in (even missing part of their lunch). The atmosphere is very cool, the artists were personable yet professional, and the razor shave I received looked great (my first)! If you have ever wanted to try a professional straight razor shave, this is the place to go.
Lorenzo did a great job cutting my hair I’ll be back and will recommend him and the shop to all my friends!
Walk-in on a Sunday afternoon. Excellent work and great timing on the cut. Ask for Zoe and hell take care of you. Got me ready for my graduation photos.
Just cant say enough good things. First the decor is inviting at the sametime interesting and thoughtful. They have created the new normal with the look plus amenities. The Staff!! Oh so talented, energetic when needed, extremely intelligent and skilled at their craft. Take my word...you will stop by to enjoy their amenities even though your haircut and/or nails already look great.
Friendly professional establishment. Will be back! Thundercat did an excellent job on my beard.Thank you!
Great experience! Two barbers were super chill and held great conversation! New to the area and finally found our go to place! Fade looks clean!
Great experience, great people. Will come here as often as I can. Where else can you get a bourbon with your cut? Second to none.
Brooke Taylor has been my barberette for a year or so now and always does an amazing job. She is at Whiskey Beard now and had me come check it out. The place is very clean and has some top shelf whiskey. They also have some very delightful smelling cigars. After my hair trimming she introduced me to the owner and other employees. I am kinda bashful but found everyone to be warm, open and extremely easy to talk to. I even played a little shuffleboard for the first time in my life. I cant wait to go back and highly recommend this place! I may even try to find some magic hair tonic somewhere to speed up the process.
Brooke was amazing. Its an easy going place. They take their time and listen to what you want. They make sure you get exactly what you want. The shop was super chill and had a great vibe to it.
This shout out goes to my bro Zo for hooking me,he did his thang, thanks and God bless. Everyone need 2 go c them and tell them hook u up.T.Y.
Ask for Zo or anyone else. Definitely know what they are doing.
Louis(e) aka THUNDERCAT! Absolutely killed It! I got my head clean razor shaved and it’s the smoothest it’s ever been. Super nice environment and loved the conversation and how welcomed they made me feel while I was there. If you are trying to get that ‘I’m feelin’ myself’ feeling, I highly recommend going to Whiskey Beard!
A great all around experience. Super friendly staff. I had an at home feel while there and I left with a perfect haircut. I’ll definitely be back.
I went in completely blind having only had haircuts at chain barbers and I was blown away by the experience. My stylist was Louis(e) I asked them to “give me the best haircut possible” and they blew me away with quality of experience and the fresh cut.
Excellent barbershop. They do outstanding work on beard trimming and haircuts.
Whiskey Beard is absolutely amazing! Their first shop was A1 and Donna leveled up with this second location. How do you get better than A1 you may ask? Well check out Whiskey Beard Crossroads and find out! Whiskey Beard, come for the cuts, stay for the barbers, the atmosphere, the whiskey, and the love you get whenever you walk in! Ask about memberships!!
Got a haircut from Brooke here today and love it. She always takes her time and does such an amazing job. The store itself is going through some upgrades that sound like its going to make it the best Barbershop in the KC,MO area.
My girlfriend got her haircut here and had a wonderful experience! She took her time and really listened to what my girlfriend wanted. Super talented! Thank you!
Had a last minute appointment with Brooke on New Years Eve, it was a geat experience! I went in for a headshave and beard trim(more like mow) and it came out looking amazing, her pointers and expertise helped me get the look I was going for. Thanks for a great cut!
People were great! Service excellent!
The aesthetic and environment had me off the bat, but the overall kindness of the staff, and quality of my trim really sealed the deal!
Donna got me taken care of and looking like a million bucks again. Great vibes and beautiful shop! Hands down a great experience!
Highly recommend awesome place Louise is great she got me looking right i will be back
Awesome service, friendly people. Brooke took her time, and man I wish she had taken a before pic because Im a whole new man.
DONNA got me RIGHT. Never fails to deliver amazing service. 10/10 recommend... shop looks amazing as well!
Lulu was absolutely amazing! My hair can be a real pain and I’ve normally just buzzed it to keep it simple. She took her time and made it look great. Very happy with my new haircut!
In 41 years of my life I have never had a better haircut. Even during the social responsibility time, I had an excellent experience. I tend to be very anxious at times and I was totally relaxed. Donna is one of the most chill and most experienced barbers I have met. She is confident and proud because she is a master of her craft. I will be returning because I need her in my life. Thank you!
Louise was fantastic. Fun personable and did an amazing job with a poor canvas. Highly recommend.
Donna gave me the best haircut and beard sculpture notice I said sculpture I have ever experienced thank you to donna and the great staff
Amazing thats all I have to say !! Love my short short short bangs Brook is the best best best best !
I’ve been a member of Whiskey Beard for a few years now, and I can promise you that you won’t find a better atmosphere or barber in all of Kansas City. Donna and her crew are the best in the business.
If youre looking for locally black owned business that is LGBTQ friendly, check out this beautiful location and make sure you get a wash- the steamed towels are awesome.
Brooke cut my hair and shaved me today and I will say it was top notch !!! I highly recommend booking Brooke for your next haircut or shave !
Great work!
Great people and prices, the employees listen really carefully on how you want your style or cut, overall a great place
Love the new location and great team of people that care about customer service!
So cool shop...super service..best cut and shave in years...Brooke is number one.
First time in there today, LuLu asked how I keep my hair and if she could put her own spin on it. The best custom haircut Ive ever got. Great environment and friendly.
Always a Great Haircut and beard trim. ThanksBrooke Taylor you da 💣
Great people and a great cut. Wasnt sure what to do with my beard and they did a wonderful job cleaning it up and making it look nice. Highly recommend checking them out!
Donna is an absolute pro and the place has a great atmosphere .. would definitely recommend !
After recommendations from the folks at Art of Shaving and a Christmas gift certificate from a friend, I finally gave Whiskey Beard a go. I was not at all disappointed. Donna was friendly, knowledgeable and an exceptional barber and I left looking like a million bucks for a very reasonable fee. Great place, well worth regular visits.
LGBT friendly, very professional & knowledgeable staff.
This place is always awesome. Great environment, very pretty inside and out. Not your average barbershop by any means. Dont let me forget they also know what the hell they are doing when it comes to cutting hair and beards. Way more then the average sports clips haircut.
Customer for 2.5 years as of this review (June 2020). I leave looking and feeling like a new man every time. Consistent quality with a relaxed atmosphere. Whiskey Beard Barber Shop!
Not only did I get an Excellent hair cut, it was a clean and professional environment with a warm and fun filled vibe. Donna paid good attention to detail and gave me some advise on how to enhance my waves. I will definitely be back. I’m also excited to know I can feel like VIP by becoming a Member.
Always super nice people
Didnt seem like a place Id normally go but they treated me well
Brook was amazing. She cuts and shapes well!
Great customer service. Great cuts. Great atmosphere.
I tagged along with my husband while he got his beard trimmed...not only did they do an amazing job but they were very nice also. Kept conversation going and made us feel comfortable.
The barbers are excellent. Very nice environment and atmosphere and youre treated like family.
Thundercatlouise is a Shear Genius
Had am incredible experience, great haircut and really professional beard trim, if Im ever back in town will definitely revisit and would definitely recommend to anyone needing a long beard squared away
This place is simply the best. No question
LuLu Is my barber. She always gets me right. Crisp edges, fade lasts 2 weeks or more, and best part. She can do the classics, as well as the new cuts. Donna is also very versatile, attentive to her customers desires, and the atmosphere is great for kids too.
I’ve been to countless barber shops to get my beard trimmed and shaped. I’ve never had anyone do a better job of giving me what I wanted to my beard as this establishment. They are awesome, friendly, and worth every penny! Highly recommend!
Perfect place for the business man on the move always needing precision and touch ups! Whiskey Beard offers unique membership deals that i Love!
Lulu tha great messed up my hair so badly. When I tried to get her to fix it she said she was all booked up and couldnt do it. My hair is messed up for the next couple weeks.
Loved the hospitality, friendliness, and ultimately a great haircut!
The stylist got me n and out made me feel super welcome
Got an excellent fade from Lulu. The shop has a great vibe and she was attentive and professional. I would definitely recommend Whiskey Beard and I’ll be back again!
This is by far the BEST BARBERSHOP in Kansas City if you are passing through town, need a new look or a touch up they are sure to get you together. Ask for Donna or Lulu. Im so happy I signed up for their affordable membership not to mention the perks that our included!
Best haircut EVER!
Donna was amazing and unlike my old barber in Texas gave me advice for some beard oil. Worth the hour drive from my home.
Best haircut and beard trim Ive ever had. Donna is wonderful.
This is my NEW shop!!! They do AWESOME work...cool atmosphere....
The only place I would go to now or recommend. If you like cigars or whiskey, this is something for you to check out!
Love this place!!! It has a great atmosphere the owner is awesome! My haircut was on point and the drinks are cold!! Definitely coming back!!#10stars #whiskeybeard
Edit- Changed Review due to Donnas response, Donna offered a refund and took ownership of the issue, thats something I can respect. That said my rating has changed, lets put things behind us and move forward.Peace, Michael.
