Excellent barber shop. All my boys look fresh for school!!! Will for surely go back there
I felt like the prince they got me in and out of there they took care of my mother and my brother very satisfied with the family outing to Tropicals I wish my older brother could have been there
My boyfriend has been getting his haircut here for a while and ive noticed the past couple of months that they are NEVER on time. i called to make him an appointment that he was on time for and the barber took a break knowing he had a client. last time we waited an hour for him to get in the chair. his haircut comes DECENT even though the guy rushes. but i personally think that it is very unprofessional to be booking appointments only to not honor the time slot. things happen but people make appointments cus they have things to do.
Absolutely amazing quality. Service is friendly and welcoming.
Very nice people that cut hair there Alfonso is my barber he does a great job and is a nice
Loved who worked on me.... Very gentle will recommend going back
Terrible service they can’t even do hair and there slow
This is a busy place, but they still give you their full attention and give great haircuts.
My husband and I drove out to Brockton to find a salon to braid both of our hair. The salon we found had only one chair open and we wanted to be done at the same time. So I called around to a few spots and when I called Tropical I explained my situation to the lady and she coordinated with her other stylist to see if she could get us both in. They said if we got there within the hour they had a chair open for us both at the same time. We immediately left Brockton and arrived at their shop in New Bedford within 35 minutes. The woman even commented about how quickly we arrived. They then put me in the chair and immediately started to style me without even offering a wash/dry. My husband started to comment, but I told him it was ok anyway because I had washed and dried beforehand to save some time. However it would have been nice to have been given the option. My husband sat in the bench and waited the entire time I was being braided which defeated the purpose of our drive from Brockton to New Bedford. The woman who we spoke with over the phone took another client and left my husband to wait. I got two french braids with extensions and my hair came out beautiful so no complaints there. When my husband got in the chair he showed the woman two pictures of designs that he liked. It was two french braids with a design connecting the middle. He had to ask for his hair to be washed which she did with no problem. The design came out awful. The parts were crooked, the design was off center, the braids didn’t lay over each other correctly, it looked horrible from the back ( the two French braids came out perfect). Once we got in the car I took a photo to show him and he immediately called the lady who originally booked us but was too busy to take us and he texted her a photo of his hair. She said we could come back the next day and she would fix it. We drove back out to New Bedford the next day and she took out just the design which is what my husband wanted and left the two French braids, and it looked great in the salon. As soon as his hair dried there were giant flakes and pieces of glue covering the entire back center of his head from the gel being brushed out and combed back in without having been washed again. Once again it looked horrible. Needless to say 90$ later ( because of course, two drives to New Bedford later we were still charged for the design even though it had to be removed and replaced with a flakey scalp) we still weren’t satisfied. It was the most unprofessional service I’ve ever experienced in over 11 years of going to salons with my husband. There is talent there but it’s more like a mosh pit of self contractors than a unified salon with customer service.
Support local! Jose runs a wonderful shop here in New Bedford and the service is quick! We dont go to any other barbers
The best place around to get your hair done. I wont go anywhere else. I would highly recommend it. Love all the ladies especially my Hazly !!!
The barber spent 45 min cutting my hair for $22. I was so happy I gave him $30
UNPROFESSIONAL. I CALLED TO CANCEL HAIR APPT AND NOONE ANDWERED THE PHONE. THE LADY, EVELYN, THEN CALLA MY PHONE SCREAMING ABOUT ME NOT SHOWING UP AM TRYING TO EXPLAUN THAT MY DAUGHTER WAS VERY ILL AND THEY DID NOT ANSWER THE PHONE AND SHE HUNG UP ON MY FACE.I HAVE BEEN THERE ONCE BEFORE AND SHE WAS 45 MINUTES LATE. TALKING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE IN FRONT OF EVERY ONE.VERY UNPROFFESSIONAL.
Great service and very satisfied with my haircut
Awesome place to get your hair done. I love the barbers and stylist.
Good barbers friendly service. Must check them out!!!
Best experience Ive ever had getting my hair cut. Claudino is a wizard and takes his time to get it right. Very cheap price considering the skill and expertize these guys have.
If you need braids I recommend andrea
Hair care for the whole family ! Divided into 2 sides,on the left is female hair stylists and the right side Men.They always do a good job on my sons hair. Many of the workers are from Cape Verde and speak Portuguese or creole so they are bilingual as well.
Good vibes nice people, and the barbers arent bad at all.
I just love their good service and consistancy
Never again.. I wish I could post a photo on here of what I asked for and what I got..and they still charged me extra
If you want barbers that take their time and know their craft this is the place you want to go. I refuse to go to any where else. Best part all the Barbers are good, so if your favorites not around you can trust someone there has got your back.
Very welcoming. The younger guy cut my hair did a good job definitely will be going there from now on.
For the barbershop side the men are great at taking appointments and being quick to do a clean fresh cut. So I would give them Five Stars. However the salon side is absolutely not equipped with enough professional hair stylist to be a salon. I made appointments for me and my two girls for four a clock appointment with two women and got there at 3:45. My first daughter didn’t sit down until 5:30ish because one of lady’s last clients took longer than thought. The other lady comes over and says what do you want which I clearly stated what we wanted earlier when I was there setting up the appointments. We wanted hair cuts, but that girl is like “oh I don’t do those no more because I messed up so bad a girl had to come back two weeks later to get her hair fixed.” Omg, I was thinking dam this girl is whipped in the head. Why wouldn’t she originally tell me that from the beginning. Me and my three daughters waited forever. The prices on the board for haircuts are inaccurate and we didn’t get a wash there, we washed are hair before showing up so we wouldn’t be there as long. I would unless you are getting weave, crochet braids or braids go to another salon for women’s hairs cuts and styles.
My favorite barbershop for convenience. Very friendly, good prices and great service! Def gonna have return visits
Good fast and punctual service
Ive never been to a better barbershop in my life. Shout out to my Barber Alphonso. This man is a Haircut God, in facts all of them are. The amount of time and attention to detail they all take when doing someones hair is uncanny but most important, CONSISTANT. They never take a lazy day or slack off in their work. Five stars is simply not enough for these guys it should be 10.
Best braiders and good barbers good place to get fresh
Make up my kid they use the straight razor which is fine but if youre going to use that you got to use shave cream or something you cut my kid up I would never ever take my kid there again the first time I went the guy took about an hour to do a 10-minute haircut the second time I went there the other guy was on drugs honest- you sweating couldnt focus and thats the guy that cut my kids head trust me Im going to Tropical
Everyone has masks on. Things are sanitized in front of you.
Katy did an amazing sew in weave! Very sweet and reasonable. She’s awesome!
The Owner is Very Soft Spoken Individual And Very Good Too His Customers.
Jose is the best good for children clean I go once a month
Excellent service
Ibwas there for 4 hours and i had the most unprofessional women they could have hired. I wont be back if so deff request another women
One of the longest barbershop in New Bedford. The owners style of cutting inspired most of the barbers and barbershop in New Bedford since most of the Barbers who own barbershops in New Bedford learned to cut from Tropical.
Great barbers they know what there doing all styles
Horrible service the hair stylist they have for braids she was very rude tried to charge me two different prices for the same hair style just unprofessional not to mention i booked an appointment only to get there and have somebody else in the chair smh i would never go here again and i wouldnt recommend anybody there either 👎👎👎
Environment is nice and friendly and the owner and staff are well trainied.
Professionalism, best haircut Ive gotten in a long time thank you Rico
The best barbers are here. Prices are great and the people are friendly.
Jose (owner) is an amazing man whos dedicated to quality customer service and hospitality .
Tropical is the spot to go for sure the owner is nasty at cutting hair and he teaches all his workers the rite way United barbers all learned from him good people at trop
Great cuts
Tropicals pushed back my teenage boyfriends hair line an inch and made it crooked too 😡 horrific. Still had the audacity to charge him 😭 And that’s just the second time he went, the FIRST time, the guy cut his hair all unevenly. I convinced him to go back for a shape up a few weeks later and it’s 10x worse the second time 😤😤😡 so disappointed 💔
Amazing CV!!!
Good all around service
The owner is running a great place, welcoming& polite staff! Its a place you can bring your children & not have to worry about swearing and nonsense!
I went to get dreads she gave me braidlocs an that in my eyes are braids not dreads so now my third week im sitting here combing them out ive tried calling to talk to the women cuz i go in ima freak but she swears she didnt do my hair just bullshitt
Super friendly and did a great job!!!
Best hair cut in town
Great barbershop...always busy and open on Monday
Nice people good work
They charge 30 hr for braids instead of flat rate..that gives the braider time to cheat people
Jose is the man pretty great place
Do not get your haircut by the owner sincerely I gave him the benefit of the doubt to cut my hair and he screwed it up big time one side of my hair dips in more than the other side does and I still paid him and he shyed looked at me with his head down thinking I was going to give him a bigger tip
