Great place. Them boys know what theyre doing. Very skilled and talented barbers. And youre helping keeping them off the streets. Most of them are all ex-convicts trying to get their life back together now honest way. So whenever you need a nice haircut fade shave shampoo so I said barber shop as a spot they do it all..
This place used to be the best about 3 years ago went in for the first time last week and the barbers are no longer the best. The guy that cut my hair 100% rushed it due to them closing. He used a pair of clippers and made the top of my hair all the same length. When you have a hard part and your hair lays a certain way that is not what you do. Ended up walking out looking like I was at great clips used to recommend this place to everyone. Now I want to see new barbers in there that enjoy their job not just rushing for another tip
What a spot; a great cut every time! I always look forward to getting my haircut here, I should go more often! Idk what it is exactly, but the atmosphere, the barbers, the music, or whatever the hell they have on the TV makes you feel right at home on the Southside Flats! ~Pokey!!
Highly recommend for clean fades and beard trim. Ask for Jocelyn Williams, she goes above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction and a fresh cut!
Great haircut Barbers make you feel real comfortable. Thumbs up
Great barbers. I recommend Joe (the younger one 🙃). Fresh cuts.
Good cut. Good people. I wish they took debit.
The cleanest cut a man can get! Highly recommend, the attention to detail was on point. I absolutely will be going back when my noggin is due for a trimming.
This barber shop was such a good vibe will definitely be back there soon. Joe did exactly what we asked for.
My nephews first time at a barbershop and overall the experience was akazing defiently recommend this place to anyone.
Jocelyn is the best of the best! The whole shop is incredible.
Walked in as was told for service when I sat down and then everyone looked at me then said I think we are close for the day at 725 pm when they close at 8. Made me feel as if they didnt want my business and couldnt even invite me to try tomorrow or let me.know as I walked in. Cuts my be good but I guess they are just hood service satisfaction 🤷 good. Smdh
Ive visited dozens of barbers in Pittsburgh, this shop is in my opinion the best, consistently the best cuts and atmosphere, worth the price.
Best baber shop in the burgh.
Nice place, good barbers, big TV with sports on, just perfect for a man to get his hair cut
This place is by far the best around. Stop down n see pez the barber hes who i use and hes the best when it comes down to a hard part or fade. Trust me i keeps it fresh n hes my go to. Check em out.

They always do a good job
My boyfriend went in this morning and asked for a trim and low fade in the back. He finally grew all of his hair back in after 6 months and it was at a great length. He only wanted them to even it out in the back and THEY SHAVED ALL OF HIS HAIR OFF. He is beyond upset and so am I. It took him months to grow it back and now he has to start all over.They were holding inappropriate discussion while cutting his hair and not focused on him as a client. It caused them to severely mess up his cut and they didnt listen to what he was asking for..Very unprofessional.
I got a shave. First time in my 65 years. Nice guy. I’ll be going here for a hair cut next time
Nice atmosphere great barbers
Great cut. I have curly hair and barber still nailed it.
Great place, I high recommend it. But I didn’t like my haircut when the chubby guy with white hair and beard did it. 🤷🏽♂️I think they should have an account on Instagram.
I got a great modern style hard part with a philly fade for half the price I paid at this salon that did a terrible job the time before. Talented barbers & a friendly atmosphere...... Cant beat it.
3 time there and will be back does an great job no matter who chair your in
Very fast and easy process. They take appointments and walk-ins and they blaze through people so theres a small wait either way. Cash only, but they have an ATM inside.
The barbers are friendly and did a great job on me and my son haircuts
Very expensive for s hair cut ... but it turned out nice.
They talk to mush, the hair cut turned out great. I will go back, when I have all day to kill.
Best harbor Ive been to in the Southside been going for years with no problems . Good laughs, great haircuts.
Great barber shop. All of the barbers always do an excellent job. There is a fun atmosphere in there as well. Great in the summer when they open the shop windows up.Ive seen them do all kinds of hair types and styles so without a doubt, anything you want done theyll be able to help you out.
Great place
If youre a man, have another man cut your hair. Dont go home looking cute. People commonly ask where I get my hair cut. Other than the outstanding talent working here, the barbers are also fun people.
Ive been coming here since Ive living in the city, so about 6 years.I will go nowhere else, as long as I live here.I have waited 2 hours in line to have these folks cut me, because theyre the only ones who can shape me up properly.I never make appointments, but if you do, its a couple bucks more expensive than a traditional cut. Its worth it, if youre in a hurry.Go for the straight razor shave.One more thing, this is for all future patrons:PROPERLY TIP YOUR BARBER! Im tired of seeing people hand their barber a $20 for an $18 haircut. They have an ATM on site, so theres no excuse!
Nice place. The barbers are friendly, and funny. Lots of laughs, and good atmosphere. Theyre a little more expensive than Borics, or Super-Cuts, but I prefer to support small business over chain stores.
This place is excellent. Great environment. And talented employees. I came in for a quick cut around lunch time.... My hair was a mess Rocko sat me down quick and gave me an fantastic and precise trim/detail and hard part. Both the beard and clean up was only 20 bucks. Cant beat that. I will for sure be back and I would highly recommend stopping by for a cut.
Had a great, clean, professional hair cut. They took caution and care of me and everyone else that came into the shop.
South Side Barber Shop is the same owner of the Fade Factory in North Huntington and both of these shops are the BEST! The barbers are kind, attentive and great at haircuts and shaves. I have a 21 yr old son who always goes to the South Side location and I took my 4 year old here 2½ weeks ago. It was a great experience and my boys both look awesome when they get their haircuts from here! They truly take their time and are very personable with everyone but are especially great with the littler kids! Only downside, just be prepared to wait for this great service and cut because there is usually always a wait for these guys. Theres an extra fee if you want to make an appointment but its worth it! Go see the guys at South Side Barber Shop and you wont be disappointed!
.... So far there has always been good vibes in there..... I get a nice Cut an Trim.... Jams always on the box... Sports on the tube..... Good conversations..... 👍
Joe is my barber. Wouldnt go anywhere else.
Great group of guys who know what theyre doing. I often get compliments on my clean lines and kempt appearance thanks to their attention to detail. They have done excellent work on my beard as well, including shaping, lines and meticulous blending.The atmosphere is enjoyable. Everyone seems relaxed and they joke around, which puts me in a better mood as a customer. I look forward to getting my hair cut now, thanks to the experiences Ive had here.
Nice place kid friendly my son looked great after his hair cut and was treated very good
I rarely leave reviews, but this warranted it. Gee cut my hair when I was in a time crunch Sunday. My hair is thick and not easy to cut, but I never worried once bc I knew I was in good hands. Barber was knowledgeable, efficient and really took his time making sure I looked fresh before I left. Will be making this my regular spot and 100% recommend seeing my man Gee here next time you need a fade!
This was the first time I ever had my sons hair cut at this shop. The barber did an excellent job. The barber shop stays packed but the wait isnt that bad
Im from out of town and I wanted to go to this place for a quick touch up for the back of my head because this place is highly recommended. The Yelp page of this place and Google review both say that this place is open until 10pm. I walked to the barber shop at 8:30pm and the doors were locked with a paper sign to indicate that they were closed at 9. They had somebody in a chair getting work done. When I was trying to speak with the people, they were making fun of me through the glass. If youre going to change your hours, then update it online. And as a professional courtesy, dont mock potential customers. If I could given place 0 stars, I would have.
Love this place always a great haircut and they give Veterans discount with ID. Average price for the best haircut you can get on the Southside of Pittsburgh. You wont be disappointed. You will laugh while you wait. 👨😂
I wanted this place to be good so bad. Overall the quality of the cut is around a 6/10. My neck is lined up incorrectly and way too high. One side is rounded and one side is pointed. There are way better barbers in the area. I only had one of them so I cant speak for the other three.
Always do a great job on my hair. Will always go back for my hair cut here.
Poorly managed. No clear interest in scheduling or appointments. Customers cut lines by giving barbers money. Awful style
Slowest group of barbers i have ever seen. At their pace and 20 bills a cut. Theyre lucky they make minimum wage
Been going here for over a year and always been happy with the haircuts- my barber Ché is a talented dude. He is great with the razor cuts and crazy designs but nice on the old-school stuff I like, too. The shop is always very busy with a lively atmosphere- music, conversation, etc. I bring my young sons here for cuts and to let them glimpse the world of barbershop culture and mens grooming. I dont give 5 stars to anyone, and this place is solid, the barbers are all good, chill, and professional. If you want a salon, go somewhere else. This is a barbershop.
Always does a great job. Can be a bit busy sometimes.
Great place to walk in for a cut. Plan ahead though, wait times may be long. Most barbers here are good.
COMPLETELY ignored everything I said about how I wanted my hair cut. Youre lucky if you get out of there in an hour and a half. They somehow think that they deserve a bigger tip by taking as long as they possibly can to cut your hair. Just going to Borics next time...cheaper, 1/4 the time to get a cut, and they listen.
Went to get my haircut yesterday, and left with one of the best fades Ive ever gotten. I wish I wouldve asked the dudes name, but homie with the middle part and mustache knows how to cut hair. Ill definitely be back in the future
Don’t believe the hours. They will close early on a whim. Went 40 minutes before close for a non complicated 1 cut. Glad you closed. I’ll paid someone else less and give the rest as tip. More than $17 for a clean 1 or 0 is steep.
Always a great cut here
My regular place for the last year or so. Would highly recommend if you need a good cut.
Best spot in the Southside to get a fresh cut in my opinion, basically can do whatever you want. Cam, Craig, and Nick are wizards with the clips. 💯
Great haircut every time. Not rushed like some other places. Cash only.
Girl Kim hook me up with a sick shave in design!! Took almost 2 hours but it was because she paid attention to detail and went over everything with a straight razor.. not a razor pen!! And those are the real barber techniques that matter!! Kim u rocked it and I def will be back to get hooked up again girl!!
Best barbershop around. I drive 3 hours one way just to get my hair cut by these guys, and it’s never been a disappointment. Go see Kim or Cam!
Great cut. Go see Craig
Quality: Good. Completely depends on the day you go as different Baber’s work different days.Service: Very Good. Their service is pretty normal, timing is based on first come first serve but you can call ahead for appointments. Sunday is the best day in terms of good Baber’s.Overall: Recommend. While not all the Babers there are good, it’s one of your best shots in terms of a descent cut in south side.
First time going here and I got probably the best hair cut ive ever recieved. Very kind people, and great quality hair cuts. I highly reccomend stopping by.
Great place with great people!Benito, thanks for the cut. I came in to town on business with a bad need for a cut. Could not be happier. Out of towners, trust this shop.Thanks Fellas!
I cant account for every barber but the barber in the first chair did a excellent job today. And Im very particular on who cuts my sons hair, being from NY gave me the luxury of having multiple choices for a barber and I would still only ever go to one shop and always let the same person cut my hair. Ive been in PA for 3 years and only ever been to 3 barber shops. But I thank I found a home at South Side Barber Shop.
Only place I trust with my sons hair. Husband loves it too. Can be 1.5hr wait on Saturdays so get an appointment.
Got a good shave twice I’ve been there and though a bit pricey in my book, the location makes it easier.
Nick did an awesome job. Best haircut and shave in years. Totally recommended.
I have never gotten a bad cut, but still some are better than others. Go in and ask for Rachael. If you dont have an appointment the wait can be long but its worth it.
Dont even go over there! He charged 25 for bear and hair cut. He talk tooo much. If U have an accents or look different he treat u diffrent.i felt so sad. He didnt do what I ask. Remember u get $25 doing nothing.
Amazing barbers! Very talented!
Not a great experience. This was my first time and I told the guy I wanted a high and tight and showed him a picture of what I wanted. He didnt ask any questions so I assumed he knew what I was going for. He proceeded to play music very loudly which made it hard to communicate with him. At one point, I told him I wanted it a little shorter, to which he proceeded to basically shave most of my hair off. The result was a glorified $17 buzz cut.
Skills are on point, ask for Kurt 1st Chair always has a wait since he knows how to make the details matter, go early in the day since they get busy late nights and on weekends. Best barbershop in the Burgh!
My son always goes here and has no trouble very child friendly
Great barber shop. Get my best cuts here.
The cut wasnt bad – Hell, the fade in the back is downright sexy – but its bad for me. I shouldnt have to tell a barber or a stylist that certain cuts are a no-no. I hardly have any knowledge of cutting hair save for what I hear from my sister and I know that youre supposed to soften negative features and accentuate positive ones. I have an abnormally pointy forehead. To compensate, I usually like an undercut with the front of my hairline to be asymmetrical with more volume opposite my part and towards the front and the corners of my forehead should have length and volume. Thats what I made sure to explain since my usual barber was out-of-town, and thats about as precise a rundown as youll get from someone off the street. The funny part is the novice who was doing my hair originally was doing pretty well. It was the experienced barber who took over at some point and completely disregarded anything I had said earlier. By the time I realized he was parting my hair the wrong way, it was too late. The cut was already dead-center symmetrical with the hair at the top of my forehead poofing out like a botched faux-hawk and nothing to soften it on the side. I cant even save it by working it into a pompadour because theres no volume. I wasnt expecting it to be exactly the same style and everything, but at least listen to me when Im telling you how its usually cut and styled.
Potty mouths but doesnt bother me. However sometimes its over the top when younger kids or females are in there.
Best barbershop in the whole city.
Went into get my beard trimmed( I specified only the ends). The barber proceeds to use an electric razor, takes a chunk out out of my neckline and tapered my beard before I can stop him. (I couldnt see how much he took off till he spun me). I had to go to another shop to get fixed, as they left it uneven as well. If you have a long beard, Do Not go here.They ruined 3 years of beard growth.
The guy that cut my hair wasnt very good at a bald fade I had to keep telling him what to do luckily it only cost 20 dollars
Great cuts, people, and atmosphere-highly recommended. Plan on waiting awhile, but the product is worth the wait.
Great place, great service, and very fair price. I am going to recommend this place to all of my friends.
Awesome place to get a great haircut. Found my new barbershop 👍
I really like this Barbershop never a long wait good atmosphere. My barber of choice is Kurt he holds it down with the haircuts
Both Cameron and Kim hooked me up with a clean cut
I dont know why the hours read what they read when the only times Ive been there, theyve closed a half hour early because the barbers wanted to get home. Pretty poor customer service in my opinion.
Ill never go here again. I got a shapeup, was charged $24 for it to begin with. Needless to say, this overpriced shapeup didnt even involve a barbers straight razor to line up my cut? instead, this person proceeded to literally line me up with just a buzz shaver (sorry I dont know all the correct terms) and instead of leaving his attitude at the door, he decided to slice into my head while lining me up. I noticed about 10 minutes after my cut that I have a literal cut that stretches across my entire forehead, and cuts in some parts on the back of my head. And no its not a cut that comes from getting a shapeup or any kind of haircut from a barber. Trust me, Ive had my hair cut by plenty of different barbers, and have literally only had my skin cut/sliced one time prior to this. The fact that they rushed my entire cut, charged me $24 for it, cut my skin in more than one place, and was so frustrated at something so minuscule they had to take it out on a customer? Makes me not want to go here ever again. Id say that if you are getting your hair cut here, then pay attention to which barber you choose, some are clearly MUCH more skilled and actually leave their stupid problems at home, thats the only positive thing Id say. Tread softly here.
Good clean cuts at a fair price, fun conversation too!
Always call in to check when they are closing. They will close early in week days if they feel like it and also will lie to you why they are closing early for like plumbing guy had to come and we cant use water blah blah. You guys dont even use water when you cut hairs. 😂
Only about 2 good barbers rest are minuscule. Enough said
Kim, thanks for the great cut. Customer for life.
Over look the bad reviews every shop has em due to attracting bad employees.this place is awesome!
Always a great cut by great people. I wish they didnt charge you to make an appointment (this may have changed).
They Always do a great haircuts love this place
Chuck just gave me the worst hair cut Ive had in the past 10 years. Way to go Chuck maybe you should let the customer see what youre doing while youre doing it instead of winging and thinking you have an idea.
Been getting cut here for 6 years and wont go anywhere else.
Best haircut/beard trim Ive ever had
Cool
I just went to South Side Barber Shop for the first time, and I dont plan on returning. I think this is a shop where it really matters which barber cuts your hair. The whole ordeal took almost an hour, the beard trim was totally not my style, but he didnt show me it until the damage was done, the cut was too short for my style of hair which makes it stick straight out, he was insanely rough and inconsiderate (I have marks all over my neck, head, and face) and he charged me $24 for it. What a joke.
