Love this place and will be sad to leave it behind. Miles has done such a great job since I arrived in Seattle. Always listened to what I wanted and I have gotten nothing but compliments on my beard and hair cuts.

David is an excellent barber and a great guy. I don’t leave reviews but was compelled to after my experience with him at Squire. 100% recommend.

Went here for the first time today and wanted to get a totally new haircut compared to what Ive usually had done for years.Erick was super helpful and gave advice on what would work and what should be done differently than what I asked for. Im the end my haircut turned out great and Erick was awesome.Ill definitely be going back.

Great Barbershop. Location is central to center of downtown Seattle. 2nd and Stewart. Shop is cool and casual. Barbers are great. One of the best haircuts I’ve had from David. Will be a regular here!

The barbers were very kid-friendly and professional. They had their groom here yesterday and the experience was amazing. The kids were having fun the whole time. And their result was the best! My boys look clean and tidy with their hair. We will definitely come back and had their service again.

EDIT: David reached out and made things right. I came in and got a second opinion from him (Id had to go to a different shop in the interest of time when my appointment was cancelled) and he touched up the cut for me. Appreciate him taking the time - he truly is great at what he does.

Best barbershop in Seattle, hands down! Myles has been cutting me since 14. Dont trust anyone else and wouldnt ever go anywhere else.

Ali simply gives the BEST fades!As a person of color, or a person with textured hair, your options are generally limited when it comes to people in Seattle that know how to give you a great cut. I come in monthly to Squire to see Ali because she does some of the best fades in Seattle! This goes for all hair types, but for mine, she knows how to do it just right. Shes also so fun to talk to, shes been my barber for the past couple years now a reason. Shes great and you wont regret it!The online platform is also convenient in booking and scheduling cuts.

The only place I have ever left happy with my beard trims. Ive tried going to 4 of the barbers in the shop and they were all great. I dont feel like I need to only go to one, they all nailed it. Haircuts are also routinely great. Few things are consistent, but this place is. I recommend this place to all of my friends and anyone looking for a new go-to barbershop. Book a few weeks in advance, they fill up fast.

Go see Myles and get yourself a great haircut. Actually they all do great work there. Easy online scheduling is available but you better schedule early as its no secret here and they do get busy.

Myles was a great guy to chat up with while getting a haircut. The environment in this place was fantastic and super friendly as well. It was my first time coming here, and so far, I don’t see why I wouldn’t want to return.

Most-outstanding barbershop here in our area. I am so grateful that I am one of your customers. Just a week ago, I came here again to have my new haircut. I thanked the professional barber for doing his best in cutting it and made me more attractive. It was a nice service. I love my hair now. Strongly recommended!

Erick Huesca is by-far the best barber Ive ever been too. Hes professional, perfectionist, courteous, efficient. The appointment process has been flawless. His expertise exceeds and surpasses all the others. Very impressed. Hes a keeper.

Yesterday, Im looking for a barbershop that can get the style that I want for my hair. And I found this shop and the best stylist in town. I admired her for shes really great in her profession. I was so happy because I feel beautiful with my new look. Thank you very much!

I have been going to Squire Barbershop for 4 months now. I am so glad I found this place. Great service at a great price. I’d highly recommend Erik. He cut my hair since day 1 and he is still the guy to go to for me. The shop is really clean and even though they don’t have a parking lot, there is plenty of street parkings around the building. Also, as other reviewers said, they get booked up quite quickly so make sure to schedule a few weeks in advance.

Review №20

Whenever my hairs drying out because of the intense heat and ever moody weather, I would rush to this shop because you have to be scheduled for service since they have a great number of customers per day. What I liked here is that they never fail to achieve what I tell them how I like my haircut. Good service ever!

Review №21

I first stepped into Squire Barbershop a little over 3 years ago. Ever since, every visit has let me elated with the job that was done - ranging from snazzy undercuts to long hair trims. Myles has been my barber almost every time and Id highly recommend him or any of the other barbers in the shop. The prices are also quite reasonable for Seattle barbers.

Dan is simply the best. I have never felt more confident in my hair. I am always getting compliments that last for a month after my haircut (right before I get my monthly appt).Thank you, Dan!

I did not get online appointment at first so I enrolled for wait lists. Eventually I end up getting an email that a spot is open, so I booked it. I read through the great reviews, so my expectations were high. I got a nice hircut as I wanted. The vibe was good in the shop. I think the barber could have been little friendly. Overall good experience 👌, I will recommend.

Aly did an amazing job cutting my hair and she’s extremely friendly! If you’re looking for a clean fade this is the place to go. Also if you have ethnic hair, don’t sweat, Aly will definitely hook you up! 10/10 would recommend and I’ll definitely be going back.

I had my hair cut here, and I can honestly say it has been in my top 5 barbershop experiences. My barber was super pleasant, and she was very accommodating to what I was looking for.All in all it was a great haircut, and a great experience.

Review №35

The best barbershop I’ve ever been to. I’ve been coming here for about half a year and never I’ve been disappointed with the service. It’s kind of hard to make the first appointment, you have to do it like a month in advance but it’s well worth it. Great service, great atmosphere and great professionals. David(Owner) is the best

Best barbers in Seattle! No frills, they know what they’re doing when it comes to fades and beards. Wish it was easier to get an appointment, but popularity is the price of such good service!

Review №39

The first experience was surprisingly great. I live nearby and stopped in to inquire about an appointment. They had just had a cancellation and took me right away. Decent experience and cut. Four or five stars.A month later I stopped in to book an appointment and dude was annoyed at the request. He said the easiest thing to do is check our website. So...I left, and got styled somewhere else. Another month, another attempt ... And another annoyed barber work the same script...the easiest thing to do is check our website.Theres a customer standing in your shop trying to book services and its easier to book online? Easier for who? Easier to find a barber with less attitude. Someone out there might find it easier to take my business.

Review №40

Put your COVID fears to bed, along with exorbitant prices you may have paid in the past. Squires on a healthful, immaculately clean, by-appointment-only basis. And the online booking system is a breeze to use, also accepting--if you desire--advance payment to further reduce any risk. Okay, but what about cut quality? Im in haircut heaven after my visit today. Aly, a new Squire stylist, gave my thinning hair a cut as good as any that Id ever had at one over-priced Pine Street salon.

Loved my haircut. Would go monthly if my close friend wasnt a hairdresser who cuts my hair in the comfort of my home. But when Nikki is out of town or I need a last minute trim, this is definitely where Ill be going.

Great barbers who you can expect to come back to for years. Good value for the quality of the haircut. Friendly conversation, or none if you dont feel like having it. Good location too. Hard not to recommend.

Review №44

Courteous staff and excellent service overall. It is almost exclusively by reservation only, and the process of walking in for the first time isnt the most intuitive (you arent necessarily greeted as soon as you walk in, which can be confusing to first time customers).

Review №49

Edit: It is not normal for me to change a review, but after leaving a two star review, I had an opportunity to talk to the owner of Squire Barbershop who showed that he truly cares about his staff and customers. Honestly, most business owners could learn from how he handled this with me.Original review: Probably great if you want the type of haircut their barbers are familiar with. Not great if youre a little less hip like me and looking for a more gently textured haircut (i.e. not cut super short with a machine on the lower half of your skull). Moreover, the Squire barbers are not particularly friendly so Im not coming back.Update: I will definitely go back to Squire next time Im looking for a haircut in Downtown Seattle.

Just a very nice chill barbershop, lots of options for barbers and scheduling. Havent had a bad experience with any of them. Nate is the best though.

Review №51

I saw the great reviews online and I was really excited for a haircut. I made an appointment online for 9:30 am on a Sunday. At 9:20 I am standing outside the store and the doors are locked, lights are off, and there is a we are closed sign. (I also called and the answering machine said that no one was there). I assumed that their website must have been buggy. I left and found another barber to cut my hair. At 9:30 I decided to call the shop one last time. Someone answered the phone and I told them that I thought there website was a little off since I came for my appointment for 9:30 and no one was there. The barber who answered the phone was incredibly rude, and said “your appointment said 9:30 and I’m here at 9:30 aren’t I?” If you want to run a business properly at least advertise that you won’t be at your own store until the very last minute. It is commonplace for barbershops to arrive several minutes early to check in and wait for your appointment to start. They claim their customers matter since that’s how they get their paychecks, but if you truly value your customers your first reaction to a complaint is not to act defensive.

Wish this place was in Philly. Great vibe and they take their time and get the cut right. Had a trim and a shave from Mark who was excellent and focused without being over chatty. Definitely would be my regular place if I lived in the city

Review №55

This latest barbershop is a long ways from the dark little shop Dave had in the market. Its big and airy but not too fancy. He did not go overboard with the bro-ness, I would take my Mom there if she wanted a fade.Dave is a great barber but good luck getting an appointment with him. Luckily hes always had a good crew of barbers to fill the other spots. The last few times Ive had Nate cut my hair and hes done a great job. Good attention to detail and a careful touch. I recommend trying him

A real barbershop located in downtown Seattle. Cool vibe and great barbers. Cant go wrong with any of them. I highly recommend Erick Hirsch for an amazing east coast fade. Hes usually booked out, so good luck getting an appointment.

Review №58

This place is hands down, the best barber shop Ive ever been to. Ive been to several others in my hometown, but these guys know what they are doing.I had Dan, and he was incredible. I showed him a picture of one of their Instagram posts, and he was able to replicate it with ease. Great attention to detail, and very personable. Showed me the right way to style my hair, and gave me product recommendations as well (didnt try to sell me anything in the store, just recommended good products).If youre looking for a clean, professional haircut, this place is it. Make sure you book an appointment though! They are crazy busy, so its best to make an appointment. I booked one for 6pm and Dan took me 20 minutes early, which was awesome.Great place, great haircut for $27.

Review №61

I love this place! Ive been coming here for at least a couple of years now and Im so happy to have discovered it! First thing I love: they take appointments! Its shocking how many places dont take appointments unless youre paying like $60+ for a mens haircut. Secondly though, its just always a great experience. Ive never had a bad haircut there, just a couple of below average ones. My usual guy has been Erick and he always does a perfect job, but Ive also had haircuts from David (owner) and Ive recently started going more to Andrew (hes pretty new) and theyve been great as well. My fiance approves of the cuts I get here, as well.Whoever you get, youre sure to be pleased. I love that its not a frilly over-the-top place - the decor is very modern barbershop-y and the guys are no-nonsense. They added a TV with sports, too (muted so as to not be a nuisance) and some nice couches - they new space is quite impressive. And their price cant be beat for the quality of cut! Whenever I go anywhere but Squire (typically when Im out of town), Im always disappointed compared to Squire. I used to go to Great Clips and Scissors Palace in Lower QA, but they dont hold a candle to Squire. Especially with the reliability of scheduling an appointment with Squire and being able to come in at that time with little-to-no-wait for a haircut.

Review №65

Best haircut Ive ever gotten (thanks Eric!). Went back to get it trimmed up and back to snuff and it ended up just as good as the first time. I appreciate the simplicity of the shop as well. Nice in a time when men are constantly being prodded to go to mens salons when all we really need is a good barber in a simple shop.

Review №66

Ive been going here for years. I get my hair cut by David Squire, who owns the shop. He has always done a stellar job by me and I will keep going back to talk to him about video games and boys and other things that are fun. My friend gets his hair cut with Eric who does a phenomenal job from what Ive seen. You can book online, though it can be hard sometimes depending on who you wanna get, since they are so popular. I dont know that I would advise a walk-in during the weekday at least.

I just walked out of here with the best haircut of my life. Ive had a lot of good and bad haircuts, but this was my first ever awesome/amazing experience. Wish I could afford to leave a $100 tip I was so happy with my cut. Very reasonable prices, too. They do haircuts, buzzes, beard trimming, etc. Its definitely worth checking out. Brian took great care of me and I know Ill be visiting Squire again in the future. Thanks!

Review №72

Perfect. Ive learned to not be picky by overpaying at salons and getting only a shadow of what I want. I moved here recently and I told Myles what I was looking for today and it was 100% exactly what I had in mind. They could charge much more for this. Its the first time Ive been happy with a cut since Ive been an adult and its much cheaper. I love the quiet masculine vibe of the place without being over the top like a lot of modern barbershops.This place is a classic and you can see why as soon as you visit. 5/5 for the shop and 6/5 for Myles. Ill definitely be back.

Review №76

Worth it. Moved here a year and half ago and needed a new barber. Booked an appointment after several recommendations. I was not disappointed. Been coming here ever since and I always walk out with a great cut. YOU NEED AN APPOINTMENT and YOU NEED TO BE PATIENT. If you dont feel extra special here or youre put off by staff not dropping everything to make you happy you will only find disappointment. But that rule applies everywhere.

This place is the best barbershop in Seattle. Dan is the man! He kills it the clippers! Rachel is amazing too! Those are the only two that have cut my hair but I have the upmost confidence that any of the barbers at Squire are amazing. Seriously all of them are top notch. Have to make an appointment but its a small price to pay for the quality of haircut.

If you are looking for a good barber, check out Myles McGhee at this shop. I told him what I wanted, he executed it perfectly, and he has maintained my cut for me in a way that satisfies me completely. He is an excellent barber, a cordial young family man, and a sure-handed professional in every way.

I’ve been coming here since I moved to Seattle a year and a half ago. Their appointments fill up quickly, you will need to book several weeks in advance for the best available times.

My favorite barber shop in Seattle. Can be very hard to get an appointment so be sure to book several weeks ahead or register on the wait list since people move appointments around. All the barbers are great here, but Eric is a legend. Unfortunately, I’m moving out of Seattle soon and need to start searching for a new barber.

Review №85

I had a great experience here. I have actually come to dread getting a hair cut because I often have to grow it out a little before I dont look like I had a visit by Edward scissor hands. I came in to see mark to get my first haircut at Squires. It was easy to set up an appointment online which was a big plus for me. Mark was great. I told him what I wanted but I am not big into hair styles so I gave the worlds worst explanation. I simply stated, make it look nice. I want it conservative but up to date. Whenever I go into details, I find my barbers try so hard to get what I want that they butcher my hair. He said he understood and then went to work. Now, I am a dentist that values esthetics. If you come see me, I expect you want a good looking tooth at the end but dont know how to explain that. You just know you dont want ugly teeth. That is how I feel about hair cuts. You either know what you are doing or you dont and no amount of explanation can help that. Mark knows what he is doing. I can honestly say I was happy for the first time post haircut. Now, thanks to mark, I have to drive to Seattle every month if I want a decent haircut.

This place was recommended by a friend. It was very difficult to get a haircut through their online reservation system. You need to make a reservation at least 2 weeks in advance.I didnt end up liking my haircut, but I could tell the guy knew what he was doing. It really comes down to preference, but I liked the vibe of the place. The haircut cost $40-45 including tip. Always tip your barber.
