I needed a quick cut for picture day, ever barber near me was closed. I walked in and everyone was cool, they came in clutch with an amazing haircut! Shout out to V. Smalls, Thanks for helping me out on short notice!
Clean, nice staff, appointments needed not sure if they accept walk-ins
Needed to get a haircut before end of day yesterday but as you know most barbershops are closed on Mondays but rode passed Sharp Skillzs and sign said open so I called and then was given an app to setup a appointment which had availability for Monday picked 6:30pm with Rob and I arrived 10mins early and I was in his chair by 6:30pm cut was great he was on point paid attention to details of my hair. Would definitely return
They were cool helpful they did everything right Ill recommend this for anyone
Vee is a masterful barber. I sent a picture a head of time, but what she created was far superior. You will NOT be disappointed leaving the shop!
I love sharp skills Norm is a great barber and the other guys in there are good barbers as well great place to get a cut they know how to handle the kids who don’t like to get a haircut they talk to them read books and everything. I been going there a long time so one bad apple in the group should not define what the other barber can do. They are respectable young man
It was a great haircut experience I would highly recommend
Great young kings and sharp cuts
My grandson goes here they do see you on your appointment time dont be late
Been coming for years and always been consistently great barbers! Norm and Rob are my personal faves but everyone in there is great!
A comfortable place to get a good haircut.
Very rude and unprofessional staff. The place smells as well
BEST BARBERSHOP IN THE NATION
This shop was a true find. I was on the other side of town with a deadline and needed a cut. Looked good, fast service, will visit again!
Took my son for a haircut last week and the barber was visibly either heavily intoxicated or under the influence of narcotics. The barber named Jewels (sp) was very belligerent using profane language in the shop towards other barbers and I will never return. His behavior was absolutely embarrassing, disrespectful and outright disgusting. While I understand the traditions of Black Barbershops and how it’s a place where one can vent, speak their minds, unwind, discuss openly various conversations, but, this was a bit much to experience. No respect or attempt to tone down tradition in the presence of women and children and barbers coming in visibly drunk or high. However the older gentleman, somewhat father figure barber made all attempts to pacify the problem to no avail. I will also be reporting my review to the BBB and will never patronize this establishment again. I encourage all readers of these reviews to examine the business practices of Sharp Skills barbers before supporting this business.
Best haircuts in the world Barbers are professional and master Craftsman Never received a better haircut anywhere
Very Respectful, Laid back, Good environment
Great Barbershop
Loved it. Haircut was great and everyone was super friendly. They worked really well with my young son who is still a little inexperienced in the chair. Dont let the frowning face fool you; he had a great time :). Looking forward to taking him again soon!
Very fast quick & efficient and professional, Very skilled barbers here 👌 Wont leave you or the Guys disappointed!
First visit and I will be back!! I came in after work expecting a long wait and was greeted (which in itself is rare) and was not waiting long to be seen. The cut I got is perfect and I will be back as my hair grows out. Love it love it. Definitely worth a visit for anyone looking for a great, speedy, and reasonably priced cut.
Great place! Great barbers! The owner is very professional! He greets everyone with a smile! I have been taking my grandson here for seven years. I love that they are open seven days a week!
Very nice people
He a cool guy educator norm. he deserves another play
Would not go NO OTHER PLACE AT ALL... Respect to other barbers, this Place...NICE.Peace1....
Came In for a Shapeup and Beard touch up. Communicated well with me throughout the whole haircut and did a very good job. Will go back no doubt and I would recommend this place to anyone
I been getting my haircut here for probably like a year. The environment is comfortable & the barbers make sure to speak to me every time come for a service. The talent here is wonderful! To my liking I go to norm the barber. Just make sure to check the shop out & get a cut . It’s worth the trip
Mr. Norm is one of the most loyal barbers ever. He always dedicated and always willing to bend time just to fit you in.... Been going to him for ten years and he always has my best interest..... Its been a honor to be service by these barbers for the past years if you want good and loyal service sharp skills would be the shop for you
Ive been getting my weekly haircut here for almost 20 years, and wouldnt trust any other barbershop. Even after I moved about an hour away from Philadelphia 4 years ago, I still gladly make that commute. Great atmosphere, with skilled barbers who regularly give back to the community, and proudly share their craft with those who inspire to be barbers. Chris has been my barber from day one, but in a pinch, I can count on a good cut from Rob, Norm, or any of the barbers in there. The shop is open everyday, even on holidays and has late hours so they make it convenient for everyones schedule to come in and get serviced.
My friends and I attend Villanova University and we had a hard time finding a barbershop specializing in cutting Black peoples hair. After a lot of time spent searching on google, we stumbled across this barbershop. It was only 15 minutes away and the service was fast since there were multiple barbers present. We all have hairstyles ranging from faded curly tops and low caesars. The haircuts turned out great and I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a barber in the nearby area!!!
Fast, Efficient, friendly environment, and convenient hours. This is an establishment I’ll be sure to revisit in the future. Thank you Sharp Skills!!
I walked in, got right in the chair and was out with a fresh haircut. Juice hooked me up! The shop has that classic vibe, knucklehead young bouls talking non sense, sports on the TV... the perfect neighborhood barber shop. Will be back again!
Rob is a great barber especially for kids. The only barber my grandson will sit still for. I always have a good experience there. He has a wonderful personality and is always in a good mood. I highly recommend him.
Said they were open... Werent open, Im busy and I cant waste any of my time.
First time here and Norm got me and my youngin right and on point. I definitely will be returning back
Friendly and welcoming services are offered by the guys at this barber shop. I love their services and professionalism.
For the working man its nice to have someone there early in the morning to take care of the mannor woman on the go.
My son and I just finished getting our traditional Easter haircuts from the 20 year vet Rob. Who I like to refer to as my evening Barber. Most importantly Rob is dependable and professional. The shop was packed today! If your looking for a professional, experienced and dependable crew then Sharp Skillz is the place to be! Keep up the good work fellas!
Tremendous place to visit. Friendly and professional staff. highly recommend them
Good cuts. The barbers are friendly and skilled. The crowd doesnt seem very friendly, but maybe its because I am a newcomer (only been there three or four times as of this rating).
Excellent barbershop, great place to just go and hang out. They welcome everyone of any race. Literally got the best haircut Ive ever had. I also made a really good friend there.
Sloppy hair cut. Dude couldnt tell the difference between a 3 1/2, 3 3/4 and a 3. Shape up was done with clippers, no straight blade. I had cuts on the back of my head. The only reason why I gave the guy a good tip was because my wife insisted. Im also not gonna sit there and argue about the cut after the fact. Now to be honest my lines were real straight in the front but Ive had better fades. Here I found out the only reason why she insisted on giving him a good tip and leaving was because she was trying to leave the place asap. As soon as we walked out the door, she was sobbing. The guy cutting hair next to me was saying the most perverted and disgraceful things about women, right in front of her. Small businesses should reflect not only quality standards of practice but ethical standards as well. For real though, I might be a white bol, but I know shape ups and that was embarrassing. Take your business elsewhere.
Super friendly, great atmosphere. If Im ever up this way again Id be back!
They gave me a great haircut, i am hands down coming back here again
Went there for a Cut, and this guy played with my hair, gave me a really bad cut. Ended up giving the guy $40 (not knowing what he did) just to show my support for black business. Went back home and saw what he did, I’m really disappointed. Not sure what I did to make him treat me like that (young black guy with tattoos on his arms), me being black myself. The message was clear, I’ll never set foot in there again. I wish him well tho because at the end of the day it’s not up to me.
Excellent service a fine group of gentlemen and the skills are most definitely sharp!
Always have a good experience there
Juice did a good job definitely coming back
Definitely faster service than other shops on the Ave.
They dont use razors here.. waste of expensive haircut
Due to my work schedule, I had to work late on Sunday, my son couldn’t get his weekly haircut, I googled this barbershop and to my surprise they were open until 10pm ! Walked in at 9 ... My son loves his haircut, very sharp and detailed .. area was clean and kept . Professional service and very reasonable price ! Will be returning to this shop
Norm is absolutely the sharpest in the city !!!! Hes extremely informative and know hair inside & out . I really recommend norm the barber!
Unprofessional! I asked the barber who does good mohawks, he says i dont know!! If you dont know than i dont need to be in this shop! Wont get money from me!!!
Old head mess my cut up I was heated
Great service. Really friendly barbers
The barbershop is open EVERYDAY. The barbers pay attention to detail. They also let kids come in on Saturdays and learn how to cut and take care of hair practicing on mannequins. Although I use one barber there I havent seen a bad haircut from any barber there.
Been coming to SSkilz for 20 years. Chris is the only barber I will continue to use. Great atmosphere more importantly good brothers!
Everyone that works here can cut but I go to Norm
Really good experience and didn’t break my pockets either
Service is great my son has been going since he was two.he is 11 now.
Only place my son will get a haircut. Everyone seems pretty cool.
Nice staff, but the place needs more cleanliness
Great place to get a hair and just talk real life situations as well as sports.
My barbershop for years, good service.
Calm atmosphere and kid friendly but make an appt if you are pressed for time.
Chill atmosphere, awesome guys very good cutting skills man I’m sharp💯💯
The best customer service hands down
Justin and Norm are great and very professional. They make every cut count!
I have been going to Sharp Skillz for years and never had a problem. It’s very friendly and family atmosphere because I am also a business owner. Some of the best barbers In Philly just ask for Stucky, Norm or Rob . I grew up in West Philly and have went to a lot of Barber Shops and Sharp Skillz is one of the Best !!! Come Thru 💯
Awesome atmosphere even better hair kuts
New to the overbrook park area and was looking for a good barber shop for me and my 5 year old son. I always see the sign and and its in close walking distance so I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon, and quickly learned that this is NOT a family friendly environment. The barber with the dreadlocks who was the only one available appeared to be either high or drunk and had a noticeable hygiene issue and a very bad odor. After listening to him talk loudly about pu$$y and several other profanoties with his older client in the chair, I left. Other barbers told him to watch his language and he told them to suck his you know what, with no regards to the 3 or 4 children inn the shop. Found another barber shop about three blocks down with no issues. I too am white but enjoy a quality mens get away from a barbershop, but without having to cover my sons ears. Whoever is the owner needs to step in and muzzle that guy, and address his B.O. If yiu have children, DO NOT BRING THEM HERE TO PATRONIZE THIS ESTABLISHMENT.
Been comming here since kindergarten. Great babershop 🙌🏾🙌🏾
New to the area. Walked in and was served immediately by Rob. He did a great job and the price was reasonable Definitely going back!
