Honestly the best place I’ve ever had my hair done at. Ask for Gabrielle… I’m a person that is short on words and straight to the point. I walk in as a “walk in” my first cut there to try it out. He asks me straight up, what do you want. I tell him and in less than 30 minutes, I’m out with a fresher cut than I’ve ever gotten at a hair salon in my life. Real skills, real service. Respect.
Started with 2 people in front of me, dude said 25-30 minute wait. They ended up taking 2 other people in front of the 2 I was behind. I’m sure if you know these barbers, you’ll get great service. They do not care to take new clients, and the service shows it.Not a single mask in sight, they even looked at me funny for wearing one. 👍🏼 #whatpandemicSmash or pass? Hard pass. They obviously don’t need new business. 0/10... thanks for wasting my morning. I’ll take my money somewhere else
Such a wonderful place to go on a Monday afternoon. It was not to busy and the lady who cut my hair did a very thorough job on my hair and it looks amazing. I will definitely be coming back!
Everyone here always does a great job with my twins hair! They can be packed, but the wait is worth the fade!
Beauty has a price! Nice shop
Came in while there were super packed, but they were still able to do the specific cut we asked for with no hiccups. They have great pricing and great staff! will be coming back again
We had a reservation for 5pm. The visit rolled into almost 30 minutes past and still waiting. What bothered me the most is there were 4 barbers available while only one was working with another guest. The other 3 barbers were simply glued to their cell phones with no awareness or regard that we had been waiting for quite a while. When one of the free barbers got up to leave the shop I asked if we could see one of the available barbers instead of waiting for the other only gentleman working. He acknowledged and said ok. Why did it take having to ask for them to be aware of us for them to notice? This was a first time there. Typically a first time guest is the most important. Not likely we will return. Team needs training on client experience.
If you make an appointment here make sure you tell them when you walk in cause they dont check when the next chair opens. Also be prepared to wait appointment or not i make appointments every time and ive still had to wait anywhere from 10mins to 45mins. Sometimes they will shave your beard and use a strait razor around your edges sometimes they dont even offer i dont understand that but still best haircut in town.
Best haircut Ive ever gotten in my life
Had a simple fade around long hair, looked relatively decent before i pulled my hair back out of a ponytail, about half of the hair was left uncut, and had to re-do it myself. Not to mention, the 1 hour wait time. I left for an hour came back and had to wait an additional hour and a half while they called other people ahead of me. Worst experience at a barber Ive had and i am glad to say I will not be returning. I generally do not write reviews but this is just unnacceptable.Thanks.
Thank you for always doing such an awesome job!!!! Only barbershop we go to! Hands down the best!
They don’t care to talk to you, or to ask what you want for your hair cut, we sat inside there for 25 minutes and they didn’t say a word to us, don’t go in there unless ur a minority.
A neighborhood barber shop feel, filled with talented artists. Fresh cuts and lines. Its exactly what you need. Why go anywhere else? Ask for Luiz.
I have always gone to this barbershop since I moved here from Boston... I’m extremely picky about who I let cut my hair, but I have to say all of the barbers are very good and I especially recommend Eric or Ricky... great attention to detail, straight razor, eyebrows... the works... I highly recommend studio 51 in north port if you want a clean cut, sharp lines, and a great atmosphere.
Great place..phenomenal staff
Only one barber had a mask on this was scary being in this barber shop and they had no mask on and the clients walks in withot mask..I was scared theyre also not cheap I paid almost 75 for 3 hair cuts..It was the fact that they just didnt wear mask that got me ...were in a pandemic people..loosing lives from this sickness
Go check out Ricky for a fresh cut and fade.
These barbers know what they are doing. The employees make it a good atmosphere, they are good people and they can cut. I’ve been a customer of theirs for awhile now and I will always come back. Great business!
Been going to studio 51 since it first opened in Port Charlotte 5 years ago. They are the best at what they do and they always make you feel welcome. The prices are good and the experience is amazing. I recommend this place for anyone who needs a good cut!
Love it, if you tell them what you want youll get it.
Very unprofessional! The barber spent more time on his phone then cutting my hair. Checked his phone to respond to texts every time he got one. Then all the profanity in the conversation with co-workers started. My card was even overcharged after the pending charge cleared my account. Unbelievably disappointed...
Great place to get a haircut. A little more pricey then the average haircut place but the extra 5 bucks or so is worth it. A good environment and excellent haircuts
Always the spot to hit when I come into town. Clean shop, good atmosphere, good music and good people. QUALITY cuts every time, if you are not sure who to go to ask for David ! (Red chair) guaranteed to get you right!
Today I got a undercut hair cut for the first time, Ive always wanted one and I couldnt be happier with the style and cut thanks to Louie such a great environment definitely going back for the next cut 🤓
Where should you take your child for their first haircut? I often hear this question asked. I found the answer. They did a great job on my 1yr 3mo old grandson. When it comes to fine, blonde, baby hair, clippers are all the only thing that should be used. Scissors always leave lines where the cuts were made. Barbers have more education on the use of clippers than most hairstylists. The Barber at Studio 51 was able to give my grandson a neat haircut even when he wouldnt stand still! He was quick about it too. My grandson hardly had time to get fussy. This place is friendly! Everyone there was talking, joking, and having a good time. When I got home my daughter loved her sons hair so much she went straight there to have her hair trimmed too! Now her hair looks great as well.
Studio 51 in Sarasota is a great place to go to chill and get a great haircut and have good conversation. Even the patrons waiting are cool to chat with. Everyone is friendly, prices are fair and they do an awesome job. They great with kids also.
Love 💘
I dont know how this barbershop got all these good reviews, but my experience here want good at all. First of all, the place is super noisy( they leave the music so high it hurts your ears) dirty, stinky and the barbers arent professional at all. With all the confusion and the barber dancing while he cuts your hair, they also dont speak English well, so you have a real hard time understanding them. I asked my barber to leave it long on top and he just completely shaved my head. I would highly advise against this place. It is also more expensive compared to other good franchise places that are MUCH more worth going to.
Joey is always amazing! So is everyone at 51! My son loves getting his hair cut there and the staff always makes my daughter and I feel so welcomed. Great group of people and wouldnt go anywhere else.
Had my guy looking like new money. Worth waiting in the parking lot.
Great place I had to get my sons hair redone after a bad haircut somewhere else...they were almost closed and PACKED but still made time to fix my sons hair and did am amazing job
Upbeat place they do take credit and debit
Great Barbershop...
This is going to be my new place for my hair cut! I believe her name is Saundra (getting new fish tank when I was there) has done a phenomenal job on the suggestion on my style of my cut.
Pretty busy place you may have a wait if your a walk in. They have a nice waiting area with a couple tvs with various shows to watch. I took my 3 year old son for his first hair cut...very patient with him. I brought a pic of the cut I wanted and the cut he got was identical. Would definitely recommend. The place was VERY busy so Im guessing Im not the only person. Who feels this way. Definitely worth the wait I had!
Great people, never a bad soul in the place honestly. Gab over there always gets my business but I have always seen people leaving there with a big smile on their face
Great staff. Kayla always takes her time to make me look my best. Best barbershop in town
I do believe they have great barbers but customer service is very poor. On more than one occasion I have set an appointment and was skipped or the guy wasnt there on time. I wont mention names but some of the guys only care about the highest paying client and not customer service. People should feel welcomed and appreciated but I always leave frustrated. I can never get the same person and I always wait at least an hr. The only reason I give a 2 is because I respect hard work and know they only make the cash they earn. I walked in one day when they were slammed and said can I make a appointment for tomorrow. Of course they said yes and I ended up with a different Barber and still waited 40 mins. That resulted in my hairline being pushed back big time. Soon as I got home my girl says, I know you dont like that
Awesome placeThey take the time and treat you like a person and not just another dollar
Called and put in an appointment and when I showed up he said he couldnt cut me. Far better places to go for a haircut other than here...
Fades for days
Good barber shop. I always have Kyrie cut my hair and she does a great job
This is not a Christian friendly environment. First thing you see is a bow full of condoms in the counter. then the music videos with bearly dress woman and lyrics are too much to handle. DO NOT take your child here
Always pleased with the service and quality. Everyone here takes pride in their work.
Sandra is the best barber in town! & Steve the owner is awesome too!
Great barbershop!
Some of my favorite things:1. Eating a big steak with potatoes, while taking a long walk on the beach with Beyonce, right at sunset, while a litter of puppies gallop around my feet.2. This barbershop.Havent had a bad experience yet... in fact theyve only gotten better! A weekly or biweekly visit to trim my beard is now on my schedule.
Luis is the man. Great barber
They will skip you to take regulars. It is obvious, and they did not care. No leadership there, the inmates run the prison. Glad to see that they are so successful that they can ignore customers.
Where did the good reviews come from??? Worst haircut in 65 years, possibly. I walked in with about 4 inches long, asked him to take half off all around. He confirmed with a colleague that spoke English what I wanted, then proceeded to shave my head. Maybe he was buzzed up on something, dancing and singing. I have nothing against being happy but hey, do your job! Maybe if youre fluent in Spanish youll have a better experience, if you dont mind the blaring music competing with the cartoons on the other TV, the broken chairs, employees chowing down on their snacks while working. Just go to the franchise shops, at least theyre clean.
Great cuts here, but they are always busy. Best time make an appt
Great barbers that know how to cut any type of hair. Normally a little busy but the longest walk in I waited 5 to 8 minutes
Excellent service
Best head shave in town!! And the barbers always provide great conversations!!
Very busy shop sometimes to busy .. ive waited and hour to get my hair cut before kinda got my my nerves..but they do good work cutting hair
My boyfriend always goes too this barbershop and they always do a great job the barbers are extremely talented but he went to go get his haircut just now on a Monday afternoon at 12 and there not even open when it says youre supposed to be open, some people dont have time too go get a haircut everyday.
RICKY is the BEST BARBER... KUDOS for PUERTO RICKY ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great place great cuts but no customer service when walk in the door.
Great haircut when I visited from out of town.
Awesome place and atmosphere. Highly recommended!
Jason did an awesome job with my haircut. Would recommend!
I always look great when I leave from the hair on my head to my beard.
Made me look much better than I normally look!
Excellent cuts on mine and my two sons. Definitely my two boys new barbershop.
When every other barbershop was close on the Holiday they were there for our Community, and thats put them High maintenance in our book! Thanks Team!
Called and asked if i can make an appt. THe said well im not sure who is going to show up today to cut hair so im not gonna make appts. Well ok looks like these negative reviews i was willing to overlook are real.. ill be going elsewhere
Everyone there is amazing especially the ladys they do a great job on my sons hair!
Best haircut, ask for Ben. No appointment. Just walk in
I love this place and Keila is the best barber! She is very personable and very talented
Awesome people~ Love the music and vibe.
Studio 51 did an amazing job on my daughters hair! Shes about ready for a trim and will be back in shortly!
Tried to make an appointment today but was informed there not busy and didnt need one so i drive 25 mins to get there. Upon arriving the lobby is full with one seat open with what looks to be a 2hr wait. The main point i discussed with the woman was i couldnt wait 2 hours for a hair cut today and that wasnt going to be an issue but obvisouly it was. Upon calling back the woman acted like she had no clue about the discussion we had and immediatly tried to put her manager on the phone. I wont be going back here the wait is crazy.
Best experience, really nice people and friendly people.
Parkers Barber did a Fantastic Job on his hair.
Place is A1. first class
First off, I was strongly against paying for haircuts for the longest time. I eventually tried 3 different barbers that where typical old man barbershops. I was never satisfied and just couldnt get the look I wanted.A friend of mine kept telling me for months to come to studio 51 and I just wouldnt. He eventually told me hed pay for my haircut if I didnt like it. So of course, I went.Studio 51 really did change a big part of me.It never occurred to me how much a proper haircut, with straight razor and meticulous fading can really make a difference. I felt right at home after my first haircut.Bouncing back and forth between the barbers here, you will ALWAYS get a good hair cut no matter who cuts your hair.(Wait times are long, always make an appointment especially in season and around major school events like grad, prom, end and beginning of school. Plan your day accordingly, and try to show up 15-30 minutes early. Things happen, and the haircuts that you get from Studio 51 are %100 worth the wait EVERY SINGLE TIME. )(There was one barber who worked here who no longer does, and he messed up several haircuts over the many times I had been in, and spent more time talking than cutting. But I believe he was taken care of.)My absolute 100% recommendation, to everyone who asks where I get my hair cut (daily basis) is always ERIC. Ask for Eric and you will never be dissapointed, he is a great guy and really takes his time. He has been the only person I have really allowed to cut my hair for the past 2 years.Ive had maybe 2 others cut it (both from other shops) just because Eric was either off or I was out of town and needed a cut, and both of them dissapointed me.. even if it was something simple they got wrong.I will continue to get my cuts from Studio 51 for as long as Im in this area of Florida, and will even return to Studio 51 in my travels to Florida in the future.Again, you CAN NOT go wrong with a cut from Eric.Highly recommend!
Always professional, always great haircuts.
The guys here do good haircuts
The number #1 barbershop in southwest Florida awesome service and barbers great full for working here...
I go here to get an undercut design and i go to joey only! Even when I dont know what I want he always seems to come up with good Ideas
Hands down the best Barber Shop Ive been to in a long time. Wish there were more like them
Stood at the counter for 10 mins. 2 barbers working. Bunch sitting in chairs on their phones not one said hello or asked what I was in for. Worst barbershop experience I ever had lol, thats to say there was even one.
Excellent barber shop has many new and awesome styles
Always a greeting upon entry, entertainment while you wait and solid barbers for all hairstyles and hair textures.
Always do a great job on the boys head
Very clean shop with very friendly barbers. Highly recommend this to anyone in the local area!
The guys speak in spanish to each other the entire time. They will only do edges if you specifically request it. If you are not a minority you are treated second rate.
One of the best Barber Shops around, I dont mind the wait its well worth it
Joey is great and really good with young kids
Didnt have an appointment, but my nephew was in and out in less than 20 minutes! Great service!
Great Barbers, Great People.
