Never been here before but decided to take the leap since my other barber was really booked for a whole month in advance. Let me tell you this place is chill. Love that everyone has their own personality and not acting like a robot just trying to cut your hair and make money. I also got a somewhat new style as well, so it might have been a tough request since no one has ever messed my hair at this place before lol But they did a fantastic job. Love my new cut and will be coming back for sure.

I havent gotten a haircut at Urban City yet (because Im bald), but after discovering the shop in the Riverwalk Mall some years ago, it is on my must visit list every trip I make to SA.If you want to know pretty much anything or everything there is to know about mens grooming and skin care, go in and see my guy Juan Gonzalez with the silver beard. He is the visionary of Urban City and sees his shop as his calling. He knows the role of the barber shop from historical and cultural perspectives. A conversation with Juan makes a trip to Urban City a trip to the barber shop museum.UC now has its own line of shaving and skin products, all made with natural ingredients and with the understanding of how our skin and facial hair responds to the shaving process. Juan will help steer you toward more natural and healthy skincare options.UC also has some of the coolest merch on the planet. The t-shirt and cap selection is unique, always reminding you to Stay Fresh.

Came in thinking about getting a trim up after 3 weeks of vacation riding my Harley so I was pretty scruffy. They taught me how to take care of my beard and hair better. Had a haircut & beard makeover. Looks and feels So much better. Can feel my skin under my beard tingling and clean after a beard wash and trim. Thanks for being so helpful.

Very professional and skillful barbers. Ross is a magician with the razor. Hot towel face wrap with precision shave. After serving 20 plus years in the military and being stationed all across the US this is easily top 3 barbershop Ive ever been to.

I talked with the guys here about my beard.. they had lots of great advice and were super cool. I will be going here soon to have my beard shaped and cleaned up. Great atmosphere.

Martin was amazing, very professional, and did an excellent job in cutting and styling my hair. The wow factor for me was the beard trim and shaping. Ive never had the straight razor used on my neck or face, what a difference in how close and clean it looks. The hot towels were very relaxing. He explained everything to my satisfaction, and in a way that was easy to understand. Urban City has a great line of amazing beard products, and after seeing the affects first hand, I bought the whole kit. My beard now looks amazing, will definitely be back again.

The bald fade was good the scissors for the comb over wasn’t good on the back of my head I have hair standing up like it’s a under cut

Hair was great the only problem was with appointment it’s good business and a courtesy to always give customers at least 15 minutes from appointment time, I called an hour ahead of time but was made to feel like they were doing me a favor, we made it 2 minutes late and it was mentioned to me when paying. Don’t know if I’ll go back I drove from out of town and had 2 back to back appointments that totaled 100.00 for a young boy I was charged extra 10.00 I was told cause his hair was long mind u it was over his ears but the back was about inch and a half on neck not even close to shoulders I felt nickel and dimed I’ve never been charged extra cause their hair was grown out. Make sure u ask cause u don’t want to be surprised about an extra here or there. Other than that I loved the haircut but don’t think I’ll be back. I gave 4 star for haircut but customer service I would give a 2

We stopped in on a whim to fix a bad haircut on my 3 year old. My husband decided since we were there already, to get a cut and beard trim. What amazing service! Franco did the cuts for both and was just so great. He really made my 3 y/o feel special and everyone was so nice. They didnt even care we just showed up!!Definitely coming back!

Ive been going to these guys for a few years now and they are always on point. No matter what barber I get, if I dont request someone, I always come out looking great. If you want a perfect cut--go to these guys. Period. They also have top-notch hair products.

Review №15

I’ve been coming here for about 4 years and I have never had a bad haircut! Ross was the last barber I saw and he does phenomenal work. You will not regret coming here! These guys know exactly what their doing! The products they offer of high quality too! This is definitely a place you wanna go to if your looking to get a haircut that you’re going to love! Honestly best place to get a hair cut in San Antonio!

Review №16

I think they had great customer service and both the guys cutting hair were very friendly. I asked for a combover and what I got was pretty bad. I initially did not see the bad haircut because of the pomade that was used to style my hair, but as soon as I got home to wash it out I noticed the really bad scissor cut I was given. Its unfortunate since I left feeling good but the haircut was definitely not worth what I paid.

Review №18

I hadn’t cut my hair in 6 months and was ready for a GOOD haircut. J LO cut my hair and spent so much time on it, perfecting it and being gentle on the sensitive beard areas. The one thing I got out of this shop that was unique was the hair education. They answered tons of my questions about shampooing conditioning, balding, thinning, growing hair back, options etc I’ve never been educated like that before!

They require an appointment but when your time comes they get you seated quickly the barbers are friendly and good at their work everything is kept clean and normally you can see them wipe the seat down just before/after you sit.

Review №22

This barbershop is hands down the best I’ve been to in San Antonio. The barbers are great guys. Know how to make you feel welcomed. Making sure you’re good with what you get before they even make a cut. They are pro military which is always great to see businesses support our service men and women. Martin is the barber I see and he has hooked me up multiple times with a killer fade for my undercut. Got so many compliments on it. Hit this place up. You won’t regret it.

Great place just missed a few spots on me and had an allergic reaction to the shampoo, condition, or the oil that they put on my beard. So I had to shave it off and hopefully regrow my beard back after it heals.

Review №33

I searched high and low and did my research before chopping all my hair from my shoulders to a taper fade and scissor cut on top. This was the best experience as a female cutting off all my hair. The manager was amazing he called me before my appointment and make me feel so comfortable and I was less nervous walking through those doors. Then I meet my Barber Ross and man he explained everything to me and made me feel like a million bucks walking out that door. I got some great products from there shop and they even are helping me with the thinning of my hair. I walked in with a hat and I walked out with no hat, I felt so good n got so many compliments. I would only trust this shop in the future. They are super clean and very professional and everyone is so nice n friendly. If I could give ten stars i would. I felt so comfortable through the whole process. Manager Juan thank u again and also Ross your the Man best barber 2021.

Review №37

I’ve been going to Urban City Barbershop for a long time now. It’s absolutely the type of business I want to support. Efficient, professional, high quality, and friendly are among the ways I would describe this business. It’s hard to find a place where you can settle in with one barber who delivers the same high quality haircut each and every time you visit. I’ve found that with Ramon and Urban City.

Review №41

Highly recommend for the short haired females of the LGBTQ community!The BEST barber shop I’ve ever been too. The owner and all the guys in the shop make it a mission to provide awesome cuts all in a chill environment open to everyone. As a female with a fade I’ve gotten some weird looks walking into predominantly male shops, making my experience uncomfortable and just awkward, not something willing to return to. These guys, and my man Jason at station #6, just want to give you that good cut and conversation that keeps you coming back for more.

Went to this shop after I had a botched cut from another barber and Urban City delivered in all aspects. Juan called me to confirm my appointment and even gave me directions and advice on how to get there. Ross gave me an insane haircut that was over my expectations. Not only was the haircut great, the atmosphere was also a mix of modern and the OG barbershop style. All the barbers were super cool and and had real conversations with me and their clients. Thank you again Juan and Ross. Highly recommend this shop.

My fiancé has been a client of this shop for 2 plus years and WILL NOT go anywhere else! (And I wouldn’t want him to either!) Our 7 year old son now comes here as well.The appointments are scheduled seamlessly so he never has to wait and is never rushed for his haircut or beard service. Ramon and the other barbers are equipped with skill sets that are unmatched by any other shop in the San Antonio area. This business is family owned and ran with professionalism, respect and love of their clientele and it shows. We love Urban City!!

This place is the epitome of a true quality barbershop! Martin is a hell of a barber and always goes above and beyond on my cut. However, just sitting there you can see the talent that each barber in there owns. Customer Service is a 11 on a 1-10. Will NOT go anywhere else!Keep up the solid work, Gentlemen!

Man! This was a great barbershop! I was actually visiting San Antonio and needed a haircut really bad. I found them after searching for barbershop around my hotel. Theyre located inside the mall. They make you feel right at home. They have a good COVID protocol, to make everyone feel safe. Frank, my barber was awesome too. He got my haircut right! Great customer service, amazing atmosphere, everyone was so helpful. I have found my place for when I visit San Antonio again and need a cut.

Review №64

Moved downtown and had to find a new barber, found this place and happy I did. They are more strict on COVID Protocol then anywhere I have been. They control the amount of people inside, make you wash your hands first thing when entering, wear a mask themselves, change their aprons every person and are completely comfortable with you wearing a mask during your hair cut. Great friendly staff and they actually care about the customers experience, I have heard them ask the customers questions through out the hair cut what they want done. Once you’re a regular they remember you and get it right every time. Ross is a great barber if you’re looking for a good cut!

I called in advance to check the availability. They had a few late night appointments which I wasn’t interested in, but they were so accommodating that I decided to make an appointment. The service was levels above any barbershop Ive ever been to. I’ve traveled for work for years. Ive been to barber shops all around the U.S. This barbershop sets the bar high in not only quality, but in service as well. I’m just disappointed I didn’t find them sooner.
