Highly recommend!! I got a jacked up fade the day before (at vip barber don’t go there) and went to mike to see what he could do to fix it. He gave me recommendations on how to fix it/style it and did a fantastic job turning a bad haircut into a fresh fade. He is a very skilled barber and is killer with fades
First time here and wont be the last. The absolute best cut ive had in a very long time. Superior customer service. Eric even did a razor shave when i didnt have an appointment for that. Super clean shop. Great atmosphere. Classic old school barber shop feel. Prices are spot on and extremely reasonable. Ive found my go to shop!!
I love this place I love Zach and tony!! Not only do I consider these guys great people in my life and funny people their skills is amazing. Perfect at their craft. I am truly amazed how amazing they are at cutting hair. I highly recommend them! And going to them. As soon as you sit down they make you feel comfortable and give you amazing haircut
After years of not knowing what to do with my hear and bouncing between barbers Woodys was able to make me look good and have consistent quality.
Needed a cut as usual Barber closed. Little more than what I pay but worth it.
Mike was great needed a new barber and new style it was perfect
Great experience. Great barber that was detail oriented and a great price. This is my place from now on and I’ll have to drive past 3 other shops to get to this one.
The best barber shop in the Original Highlands. Prompt courteous service by friendly professionals. For best results schedule an appointment.
I wish I could recommend this place, but I cant. While its super convenient and has a traditional vibe, the quality is VERY uneven. I never knew who was going to cut my hair or what result I was going to get. Maybe they have a turn-over problem. I hope theyve fixed it.I want dependability in a barbershop. Couldnt get it here.
Nice haircut..however, was not happy with COVID precautions. People in the place wearing no masks, and the man cutting my hair had a mask on, but not over his nose. Was so upset I had to get a COVID test afterward.
Tony always provides high quality cuts. The atmosphere is awesome. Would recommend woodys to anyone looking for a great barber.
By far the best in town! Only at Woodys Barber shop have I ever experienced such a level of detail. Yeah, youll spend 45 minutes to an hours in one of their chairs. Theyll use straight razors to clean up your wonky hair lines and spend more time then what seems logical or profitable for them. I would say, Its as if they are striving for perfection. But they got perfection down to an art form. Ive been to plenty other places in town and I learned how sheep feel being sheered. Its Baaaadd! You wont find that at Woodys Barber Shop. It was also my Grandpas favorite barber shop as well. Cred A+Thank you for the impeccable service!
Made reservation with Al at Baxter. Ive tried numerous barbershops in Louisville.. more expensive ones, ones with better reviews, but never had I left barber more satisfied than in here. Excellent attention to detail. 5* Thanks!
Al (aka OWL) was very professional and courteous. Will be back.
I stopped in today for a haircut and a beard trim and this place is awesome! Great prices, great service and great atmosphere! I got a fantastic cut from Drew. I only wish they were closer to Pittsburgh because they would be my new neighborhood barber. Give them a try. You won’t be disappointed!
Drew gave me the most amazing experiences Ive ever had getting a haircut from the moment I came in until the time I paid this man went above and beyond to give me the best haircut I have ever had and have ever seen he made me feel like one of the family by the time I left he also has stellar merchandise the staff was amazing the look is awesome and the barbers are prompt and professional Ill never go anywhere else again and Drew is my designated barber from here on out! Ill recommend to any and everyone
Best haircut (and shave), from Drew W., Ive ever had - friendly barbers, cool down-to-earth neighborhood barbershop feel. Wife of 12 years said its the best haircut Ive ever had. I drove over an hour to go to Woodys and it was absolutely worth it and I will gladly do it again. Ive definitely paid more for much less. If it isnt apparent, I would recommend Woodys to anyone in town or from the area.
These guys are the best in Louisville
Dalton T was my barber and Im so happy to finally have a reliable barber. He cleaned me up effortlessly and clearly knows what hes doing. Great with a straight razor and has vision. I didnt know what I wanted. I was gonna go with my normal cut but he convinced me to go bold and he hooked me up! I got crazy confidence because of him and thats why Im leaving a review. Will be back asap
Zach was awesome! Will return!
I had and amazing haircut at a fair price. I could tell Wayne is passionate about his craft. He took time to explain what he thought would work for me and why. Ive never had someone put so much time and attention into a haircut. I will certainly be back and hope you give this place one chance. Because after one experience you will be a satisfied and returning customer, like myself.
Zack always gets a 5Best in town
This review of 3 Star is strictly for walk-ins. If you have appointment I imagine it is 5 stars . I went there 1 time and the haircut was great. I have been back 3 times since, and waited an hour each time. Nobody greets you, tells you how long the wait will be, and they only have 1 or 2 barbers taking walk ins. Highly recommend getting an appointment, because if you don’t you will end up wasting an hour of your time with no hair cut.
I got all kinds if trim from that place
The barbers are great. Not a fan of booking on line. Have to leave your credit card number and hope that the appt you booked actually got booked. They arent fans of walk ins-so be ready to book online.
A Few weeks back I had just finished up doing some work in the library at mid city mall, and I wanted to head out for a haircut. There were a few different options of places to go. Woodys is the only one I had not gone to. With my wedding coming up in 7 months I wanted to be able to find a place that would take care of my hair every couple weeks and let it grow out until I am ready to style it for the big day. I have been so happy with every experience from the first day. The barbers are friendly, its very laid back and its a nice place to hang out if there is a wait... Listen, every shop is different, every barber is. Dont stress, just fins one you like being at. I love Woodys, its great for me... I definitely feel the individuality and its a Louisville original. It has personality without being too crazy... Check it out
Ive been to a few of the best barbers in Louisville, but this shop has more then a few if not all very good/great barbers. Andrew Wortham is the barber I go to though and is top notch with the clippers and versatile with whatever you need style-wise.
Amazing barber. Very personable and great haircuts! Recently opened one on Louisvilles Belknap campus which is very convenient for students and will be sure to do well.
Great barbers here!! Everyone here can do a proper fade. My go to guy is Will. He’ll take care if you.
It was the best haircut I’ve ever had hands down. My barber, Dalton, was incredibly friendly and meticulous. I highly recommended this to anyone looking for a great haircut at a fair price. I surely will never go anywhere else again.
Went into this barbershop with high expectations. I saw a lot of good reviews and also was recommended by some friends. The haircut I got though was terrible. The guy had absolutely no idea what he was doing, (he advised me he was a truck driver just a month ago) also he was begging people to cut. He was cutting my hair for an hour and half. Worst haircut ever. I asked for a fade and I have a long line going across my head. I told him the haircut was garbage and I didn’t have anymore time to wait to fix it because he obviously didn’t know how to fix it and I’ve already been there for 1 hour and half. He still had the audacity to charge me 5$ extra. Even though their sign clearly says 20$ for haircut and I even called to confirm. On top of all this, this was the first time I ever got a haircut at a barbershop and they didn’t clean me up with alcohol. Overall worst barbershop experience I had. I wouldn’t have even written this review if he didn’t have the audacity to charge me extra for a haircut and wasted have my Friday.
The only barbershop i will go to. Efficient, reliable and you cant beat their prices. The staff is friendly and make youre experience a enjoyable one. I highly recommend
Been coming here for about 2 years now. I use Will typically and hes definitely my go to but Ive got cuts from a lot of the guys and everyone up there does solid work. Wouldnt go anywhere else.
I get my haircut with Drew, he is great. Always listens and executes and all around great guy
Will is a great barber definitely will be back to see him
You cant rush qualityGot my hair cut here today because my regular barber had an A/C issue that caused them to shut down for the day. Woodbys has barbers who take their time on you and do it right. I waited for a while but I was able to scope out other peoples haircuts so I could decide who I wanted to cut mine. Turns out everyone did an outstanding job on the clients they were working on. Ultimately it didnt matter which guy cut my hair, they were all talented at their craft. You cant go wrong coming to Woodys.
First time going to Woodys today and it was really the best place I’ve been. Had josh cut my hair, he has before at a different barber shop and of course he did a 10/10 job. The atmosphere is dope here, definitely gonna keep coming.
One of the best barbershops in the city in my opinion.
Quality haircut and shave. Provided great education as well for scalp issues. Would definitely go back again.
I would highly recommend against going here. I was forced to choose this barber shop over my regular shop when I was in a pinch to get a hair cut before Thanksgiving. Not only did it not look like I had received a hair cut (poorly trimmed side burns, edges over my ears and neck line. The barber managed to nick my ear as he called it. There was actually a small chunk of my ear missing, it is still sore and healing... They also took a chunk of hair off on the back of my head near my neck line. I went back to get my money on four separate occasions. Each time I was told we can fix it for you, Yeah youre not touching my hair again. I said. The manager said the particular barber that cut my hair would have to give my money back (he was busy one time, and away the other.) Then when I finally spoke with my butcher and he told me that they had a 24 hour return policy, he couldnt explain why this wasnt mention in prior conversations with the manager. Once I went back at a time specified by the manager and they were closed. I finally figured I wasnt getting my money back and gave up. Do your self a favor and try another barber shop if you dont have one.
Woodys Barber Shop is the best place to get a great hair cut. I have been going to Woodys for years now and my hair is cut just the way I want it to be every single time. I used to live in Cincinnati, Ohio and whenever I needed a haircut I would drive all the way back to Louisville just to go to Woodys. Great barber! Great Atmosphere! Great Haircuts!
Update...had worst crazy scary experience there that should never happen at a place of business or life. Never going back. And I used too like itWill nailed it...classic B shop in good spot...no frills but good work and comfy
Great place. Make sure to make an appointment for faster service. The place gets pretty busy. Steve Wood is the man.
Best Barber shop in Louisville! Never go anywhere else!
This was a awesome experience for a small town guy used to small town barbers highly recommend making an appointment though lol
NEVER a bad cut, fun environment, and the people are always awesome. I highly recommend if you’re in the market for a fresh cut!
Loran is great. Never caught anyone walking out with a bad cut from anybody.
Absolutely amazing service ! I went there a couple days ago and it was cleaner than my own home lol! The people there were so friendly that I felt like they were family. The prices were also reasonable and the hair cut I got was worth way more than what I had to pay but I’m not complaining haha ! I definitely would go again, ten out of ten a great experience .
So I did something out of my comfort zone and visited a different barber shop than I normally do. I wanted to give Woody’s a try since they opened next to Bdubs where I work.Let me tell you now, do yourself a favor and book yourself an appointment with Wayne and NEVER look back. The entire staff is skilled beyond belief, exceptionally personable, and just overall amazing dudes.Wayne got me lookin so fresh that I got two dates with two different people within 30 minutes of getting my cut. He is extremely professional and takes pride in his craft. His attention to detail was bewildering. I will definitely be a new regular.Thank you, gentlemen.
Went to Woodys this morning on a whim. great shop, very relaxed atmosphere. didnt have to wait too long and got the cut I wanted. Brian did a great job
There are haircuts and then there is a trip to the barber shop. If want the best cut, the best atmosphere, and to feel like a million bucks there is no better place in the Highlands.
Great place for a great haircut and environment. They take good care of their customers. I have been coming here for over ten years and it is always a great cut.
Legendary customer experience and top notch haircuts. Highly recommend Woodys. Loran is a mastermind with scissors, clippers, and a straight razor. As long as Im in Louisville, I wont be going anywhere else to get my hair cut.
First time coming here. Got a great hair cut and all the guys are great. I will definitely use them again.
Ive been going to Woodys Barber Shop for a few years now. Brian is the man when it comes to getting your hair cut. He takes his time hes in no rush. Honestly I dont trust anyone else with my hair after having gone to Brians shop.The atmosphere of the shop is very relaxed and is welcoming to anyone there will always be something to talk about when you enter.
Best barber shop in town, period. The atmosphere is always laid-back and if theres a sports game on, its on the TVs. Prices here cant be beat for the level of service and expertise you get. Brain the owner is extremely friendly and knows how to cut some serious hair. The rest of his staff are also very accommodating and friendly. The shop is always clean and when there is a wait, its never very long. Dont bother with places like Derby City and Market St. Barbers... they will schedule you an appointment sometime next century, produce a so-so haircut, and charge you way too much for a sub par experience. Be smart, get your hair done like a pro at Woodys.
Josh is great. Little expensive but I guess you do get what you pay for.
Zack Harris is one of the best barbers Ive known.very cordial and pleasant.i have a beard he trims that and my bald head perfectly.
I had seen the sign on Westport road for woodys. Did some searches on google and found that the shop has been around for a while in the highlands. No appointment, walked right in and was immediately seated. Hands down the best hair cut I’ve ever had. I highly recommend woodys to anyone
Woodys barbers were all very welcoming, knowledgeable, and seem to be precise! I was welcomed with some enjoyable music and a mellow atmosphere, that coupled with some comfortable seats to rest my bum made the wait worth the cut!!!
The owner stayed open late and totally killed it! We had some good laughs too. Hair came out looking great
Nice place, Friendly, Great Hair Cut & Shave. Brought my 71yr old, Pops in for a cut. Happy New Customer! Thank you...
Fun atmosphere. Good cut. They prefer cash but they can run a card on their cell phone.
Very great experience Wayne was amazing. Left very satisfied, I dont always needbto wear my hat anymore
Cool place step back in time.
I went to Woodys once a couple of years ago thanks to a friend of mine and now I will never go anywhere else. So much has changed since I first walked in, but a few things have remained the same: a great atmosphere, friendly people, reasonable prices, great music, and incredibly talented barbers (especially Anthony)!
This place is amazing!!!! Old school feel with new school cuts.
Great barber shop! Great staff!
I am extremely particular and hard to please..Zach at woodys exceeded my expectations completely and did a.wonderful job cutting my hair. he took his time and made sure it was exactly what I had envisioned..I will never go to another barber again
Best shop in town
Great service and cuts. Definitely will be coming back.
Do yourself and everyone that has to look at your hair a favor and visit this shop. Each barber is a master of their craft and even better people.
Always a great cut.
Great place to get a fade with fantastics barbers. Ask for Steve W.
Always a great place for a haircut.
Got a nice haircut looks good best haircut ive ever had honestly
Without a doubt the worst haircut Ive ever received in my ENTIRE life.I told the barber, very specifically - I want to shorten my hair and clean it up. I dont want to mess with it a lot in the morning, but under no circumstances do I want a buzz cut anywhere.So take a guess what I got?The sides of my hair are less than 1/4 inch long.The front is all kinds of screwed up, with the length being anywhere from less than an inch to two inches long. It looks like a terrible miniature feauhawk.Its so short all I can do is put a hat on all day long. I was so angry when I looked in the mirror I couldve spit nails.I still am in complete disbelief that I paid for it. I should have flipped out on him and walked out, but I was in absolute shock.The entire time I was there all they talked about was drugs. How every person in there apparently had some kind of drug charge pending. Obviously, I picked a real winner of a barbershop.STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. Unless you want a buzzcut with a fade...which apparently is the only thing these guys know how to do.I came in asking for a business crewcut, I walked out with quote high and tight I didnt ask for and most certainly didnt want.Oh - and to top it all off - I came to Woodys because they publicly advertised a straight razor shave. Not only was I never offered that shave, when I saw what my hair looked like, I wouldnt have accepted the offer if my life depended on it.
Great cut with a great atmosphere
Put my name in at 10.30 to get my head buzzed. Its two now. Went in and sat down with a totally new set of people that werent there when I put my name in. After they started getting called while I was being ignored, I bounced.
Awesome!
They have a sign inside the barber shop that sayshippies use back doorhow rude and unprofessional considering thathippys built the highlands and no hippy would evenconsider going here for a trim because the barberswouldnt even know where to start ... now if you want totake a chance with an amateur kid with an electric trimmerto go at you for a military crew cut be careful of your ears
Waited an hour and no one cut my hair. Waste of time unless you have an appointment.
Loran gives the best Fades
Amazing haircuts, great price!
Awesome barbers
The only place i trust to touch my hair...period!
Steve Woods rocks the Clippers.
Highly skilled individuals.
Made an appointment with tony called him to confirm I would be late a few min he turned away my service who passes up a 35$ cut last time I came I even tipped him I won’t be going there anymore
Been going here for years. Ask for Anthony.
Always a great experience
Great shop.
Fades that will get you paid!
1st class always
Great place
I did not like
