I’ve tried a number of barbers in New Orleans, but Modern Men Barbershop easily takes the award for the best I’ve been to. Excellent, friendly stylist who also did a great job on my haircut.

It really cant get any better. The facility and location are both excellent and my barber, Paula, is one of the owners. The operation runs like clockwork from when you enter for your appointment and ultimately, Paula gave me a great cut. Highly recommend, hence the five stars.

Well…. They effed me up. I told them what I wanted, they did whatever they wanted to, for both me and my other customer. Asked for a fade, and it looks more like ‘steps’ from the 80’s. Like literally, they did NOTHING we told them, and gave the worst haircut. Wanted them to line my beard up… they messed that up too. I don’t recommend wasting your time, I am pretty upset, I was growing my hair out, and I should have just let a blind homeless person with Parkinson’s… would have had better results. I seriously have to go get another cut just after 3 days because of how bad the fade is.

DO NOT GO to Modern Men.Today I had an appointment with Michael at 5:30, their last appointment of the day. I called at 5:22 to let them know I would be 8-10 minutes late because of rush hour traffic. (I thought this was a courtesy.) The guy on the phone said okay, and then asked me if I knew about their no-show policy. (...?) I said no, and he said that if you show up 10 minutes late, youre treated as a no-show and charged the full price of your appointment. I said I am not a no-show! I am on my way and will be there by 5:40 at the latest. He said fine, no worries, and we hung up.I drove as quickly as I could and was on track to arrive within 10 minutes. I looked forward to my haircut. At FIVE THIRTY ON THE DOT (my appointment time), Modern Men calls back and says Hey, we cant do the appointment today. (???) He explained that the barber couldnt do it because I was arriving late. I was speechless and basically blacked out and somehow let the guy reschedule me for the next day. (I later called back and cancelled it.)So I turned around in the middle of rush hour traffic and drove home with no haircut because Modern Men cancelled my 5:30 appointment--at 5:30--AFTER telling me that it was fine as long as I arrive by 5:40.Some key points and takeaways:(1) I was a new client. No one told me about this no-show policy when I scheduled my appointment. If I had known that they had a draconian policy on tardiness, I wouldve taken my business elsewhere in the first place.*(* By the way, if I had shown up > 10 minutes late and triggered the policy, would they have charged me the full price AND refused to honor the appointment? I am left wondering about how exactly this policy operates.)(2) It frankly doesnt matter if they have a no-show policy because apparently the real policy is that the barber can cancel on you at their whim, even if its AT your appointment time and youre 9 minutes away and youve alerted them that youre running late.(3) The only reason I was late in the first place is because I work until 5 PM, and 5:30 is their latest appointment each day. The fact that they close at 6 PM on weekdays is reason enough for 9-to-5ers to go elsewhere.--Ultimately, maybe my tardiness is to blame and the lesson is simply to never be ten minutes late, ever. In the meantime, we live in a world with traffic. As long as thats the case, I will get my hair cut at some place more accommodating.

I have been going to Modern Man Barber Shop for about 6 years ever since moving to New Orleans - and always leave with a great haircut. I have recently been going to Michael - he has a superior attention to detail, and is really superb at his craft.

What a great experience! Today was my first visit and I will definitely be back - scheduled my next appointment while I was there. Claudia was amazing! She listened intently about what I wanted and what I didnt want. I went in for my first haircut since Covid started (I normally get my haircut every 4 weeks). She had a mess to deal with and gave me an awesome cut, beard trim, wash and style. The place was great - super clean, friendly, upscale hair products and professional. I walked out of there feeling great and looking great. Thanks for putting a little extra pep in my step today!

Great service and great haircuts. What more could you ask for? Everyone who works there is nice and easy to talk to. Getting a hair cut is cheaper than therapy and you look better than when you arrived.

I am very disappointed in Modern Men. This afternoon they messed up the time on our appointments and then charged me for it. I know I made the two back to back appointments for this Thursday, the only day of the week my sons dont have lax practice directly after school. Max, at Modern Men, claims I made it for today but I never received anything confirmation for me to let me know we were on the same page.So then, after sending my older son many texts (while he is in practice), they just charged my card. When I called to discuss just now they didnt care a single iota. They had already charged my card. No apology or lets split the cost. Honestly, I am bewildered at their inflexibility to work on a solution. I have taken my sons to MM before and would go again if they had at all nice about their mistake or accommodating. But no, I understand Max believes it is a better business call to get my two charges now than forge a lasting relationship for years to come. A remarkably short-sighted business decision.I really like Bearded Lady Barber, a fabulous place on Magazine St, super friendly, cheaper and give everyone Ive ever seen in there a great haircut. Sara the owner rocks- 5 stars for The Bearded Lady!!

Paula has been my barber for three years now and I couldnt be happier. Not only offering fantastic service for all of my grooming needs the entire team is friendly and personable on a higher level. Regardless if youre looking for a clasic era cut or something modern or even laid back just bring in a picture and give this team a try. Everything is by appointment only - dont be late!

I highly recommend Modern Men Barbershop and left my previous hair stylist after trying this place out almost a year ago. They’re extremely friendly and welcoming from when you call, walk in the door, and leave. Paula does an amazing job with styling and you can even buy your hair products there. Great place and staff!

As someone who lives in the neighborhood, I was initially hesitant to pay a visit to this shop at first although I have passed by it on a number of occasions. However, from start to to finish, the staff was friendly and I was immediately impressed with how courteous and responsive the staff was to accommodate me.Sarah, my stylist, was very helpful and friendly in assisting me in finding the right hairstyle that I was looking for as well as making my first visit to the shop pleasant and enjoyable. This was honestly one of the best haircuts I have had, not only in the styling and trimming done but in the service and professionalism displayed by staff. I will be certain to visit again and will encourage others to visit.Thank you again,Alex

Paula is the best!! When I got stationed in New Orleans 4 years ago I must have gone to 10 different barber shops until I came across Modern Men Barber Shop. The staff is amazing and the beer is ice cold! They are extremely professional and military friendly! Best haircuts in Town!!

Review №36

I was looking for a haircut that was better than the average barbershop cut, and I wasnt disappointed by this place. Meghan did a terrific job, and showed me how to put some work into styling it in the morning. Id say the only complaint that I have is that It was expensive, especially with buying product. It was worth it. Sometimes, you just have to treat yo self.

Review №37

Ive been going to Sherie for haircuts for years, and I naturally made the transition when she opened her own place. Its a warm and comfortable space, with great people who really care about you looking good and having a relaxing time. The hot towel shaves are incredible, and if I ever need a real relaxing time I treat myself to one of these.Its an incredible place, and I cant recommend it highly enough!

Review №39

By far the best place to get a shave or a haircut in the greater New Orleans area. The treatment you receive here is hands above the rest. All of the barbers that I have used Paula, Sherie, and Sarah have me looking like a million dollars when I walk out of the shop weekly. Well worth the the trip uptown and the whole staff treats you like you are the only customer that they are seeing that day. If you have not been give it a try. 6 STARS!!!!!!

Review №40

Fine place if youre an Uptown Lawyer looking for a $95 (with tip) hair styling experience and a place to put your $350 shoes up for an hour. By appointment only. A barbershop this is not- its a young urban professional mens beauty salon complete with a well stocked boutique hair products department. Students, artists, blue collar workers and everyday guys looking simply for a haircut suited much better elsewhere. Im surprised there wasnt a cover charge.

Review №41

I brought my boyfriend in for a haircut today and I showed them barber a picture of the hair cut we wanted to get, after sitting in the chair for about 45 minutes his hair looked nothing like the picture, she gave a decent haircut but we were pretty disappointed that she cut his hair nothing like the picture we showed her, as we went to pay for the haircut the African American cashier, I believe her name was Jade, asked if we would tip on the card and I said no, she then swiped my card and asked again if I would tip in cash and I said no, she got very upset and said but you just received a service and you like the haircut so you should tip, she acted as if she would not let us leave without tipping.First of all she was very much out of line and that was very unprofessional, she said we had just got a service and should tip as if we were not already paying nearly $40 for a haircut that was nothing like what we wanted, she should really be reprimanded or taught better customer service because that was awful, bad enough we were paying for a haircut we were not even 50% satisfied with but on top of that rude service, judging from the other bad reviews and no responses the owner nor management cares enough to even apologize for rude employees, we will not be coming here again ever

The first time I went to Modern Men, I joked to myself that they liquor you up so that you cant tell theyve given you a bad haircut. By the following morning Id sobered up, and I was glad to see that Sarah had, in fact, given me a fantastic haircut.The great cuts, the cool vibe, the fun people, and the drinks have kept me coming back.

Review №44

Ive been coming here for over a year now and I honestly have never had a better hair cut. Sarah has been my girl since day 1. Shes funny, courteous, flexible, and down to earth. I drive from the Westbank at least once a month to get a cut. I dont know what Ill do if I move out the area.

Review №48

Its decent and I had no issues but my girlfriend hated a haircut I got there, and I found better prices and quality at least as good if not better at savage beauty. I live closer, like the personality of my stylist, and prefer my girlfriend like how I look, I switched to that and Im happy. But modern man seemed fine also and Id probably have kept with them if nobody criticize the haircuts.

Let down. The girl who cut my hair was nice but was very disappointed for a barber cut. No sheers even came out and no straight razor!! I went specially for my beard and it was trimmed with clippers. No razor and no sheers.... I thought I was seeing a barber ? Very let down won’t be back.

LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! If I had only one sentence to describe this place thats what it would be. But if youre interested in a further review then keep reading. This was my first visit. After reading a few of the comments I was somewhat concerned one of them being price. It was definitely no where near $95 like someone had posted.I dont know about you but when Im trying to locate a good place to get my haircut Im looking for a place that makes me feel comfortable and welcome.The girls here at Modern Man Barber Shop went above and beyond I felt like I had known them for much longer than just a few minutes.I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Paula she great has a wonderful personality easy to talk to and I love her accent.Then there is Francesca....Wow... she was amazing she did a wonderful job on my hair.. and I couldnt stop staring at her huge tah tahs;)But seriously these girls are awesome and I will be returning here for next visit to NOLA...Words to describe this place: friendly fun clean Charming authentic beautiful ladies cold beer affordableThanks for reading!!

Review №60

Came in for just an undercut, I showed a picture to Claudia of said undercut . We get to talking as she’s buzzing away and asked why it took so long for a haircut . I told her I got through the awkward phase with the top, but now I just wanna get rid of the sides .we moved forward with the cut . I love the undercut . She then untied the top and started cutting away . I assumed (I shouldn’t have ) she was trimming split ends until I started seeing chunks of my hair falling down . I told her to stop . She did and said she would fix it ( her words) . At this point I’m furious but held my tounge to the end . Her argument was that I didn’t tell her to stop sooner, even though I explained I wanted the sides gone . We never talked about the top of my hair. She tried to say you wanted it exactly like the picture but I thought at this point it was worthless to argue (it’s not even close to the picture I showed her anyaway.) Took me a year and a half to grow this hair and she messed it up .

Review №61

I went to Modern Men after making the mistake of getting my haircut at a shifty Supercuts. Sarah did a great job of fixing the abomination that was my cheap haircut. Unfortunately, Sarah was not available for my next appointment, but fortunately Meghan is great too. The cost for a cut is a little on the high side but still reasonable, and the quality and experience are unquestionably worth it. If youre looking for a new barber/stylist in New Orleans, this is your place.

Thoroughly overrated and overpriced ($140/hr; $35/haircut of less than 15 minutes). Staff has inane and long (10+ minutes) conversations over your head and get very defensive when complained about. Then some shopgirl has the temerity to berate you over the phone.
