The absolute BEST barber shop in Tampa. If you are considering going somewhere else, DONT! They take the time to focus on quality here rather than just a quick cut. If you have been looking for a new barber, THIS is your place.
Sam gives me hope that my hair can still look good on my head. Just when I’m on the verge of shaving off the remaining hair I have, Sam works magic I have never seen from any other barber. He is a great character and makes everyone who comes to him feel like family. I’ve struggled with finding a trustworthy barber in the past but these last 2 years going to Sam have been the best barber experience I have ever had. I always leave his shop feeling more confident than ever and can never thank him enough.
This place lived up to the hype. Sam is a really nice, friendly guy and does a fantastic job cutting hair. He got me lined up better than Ive been in years. Ill be back, highly recommend!
Wow, first time ever going to Oxygen Barber Shop Im very impressed with Sam very knowledgeable, did a amazing job lining up and shaping my beard on top of awesome hair cut, WILL definitely be back to see Sam!
Just had a haircut and beard trim with Bryan who was very professional and charismatic. I can tell ya that I’m done going to Supercuts after his excellent work. Thank you Bryan!
Very friendly service, and an exceptionally good and fast haircut. Glad I went in and will definitely be coming back.
Went in here for the first time after not having my haircut in over a year. Sam is a great barber and a funny guy. I am making him my full time barber.
An excellent barber with a great chairside manner and even better skills! Great for any USF student, alumni, or Tampa resident.
Been there twice now, and it probably will be my go to place. Sams a great guy and will get your haircut right
Sam is the greatest, quality haircuts and quality conversations. Good prices as well and can walk in at anytime time without a long wait. Been going here for 2 months now and haven’t ever thought about going to another barber.
Sam is not only a great guy but he gives the best haircut. You always feel welcome in his shop. It is always a great time with Sam cutting your hair.
My experience was great here, the barber was hilarious and gave great conversation. The barber knew exactly what to do with my hair style and didnt give me a fade I never asked for like others in the area! Great haircut for a fair price. If you are looking for a regular barber shop this place is the one to go to.
Its taken me a while to find a good barber around USF, but he is a professional and friendly barber, he knows how to cut quickly and clean. He identified problem spots (like cowlicks and thin hair) with my head and hair to give a great cut with these things in mind. I definitely would recommend.
Im here from tiktok and i never laughed so much from sam videos on tiktok, deserves 5 star 😅😅😅💯💯
Sam is the best barber in town. If you are looking for a place in the USF area that’ll make you feel at home go to Oxygen Barber.
I’ve been going to school in Tampa for almost three years and I’ve always come here just for one simple fact: I know that I’ll leave looking better than ever every single time. The quality and professionalism is amazing and I always look forward to an appointment.
My hair cut was amazing and the barber was super funny and made it a overall blast, lots of fun conversations and he was super creative.
The best barbershop in the area, it took me awhile to find a barber who knows how to give excellent haircuts
Had a disaster of a haircut at another place. Disappointed in myself for not just going here instead. Sam fixed my nightmare in 5 minutes. Excellent service. He knows curly hair
The nicest haircut Ive ever gotten and for a really great price!
First time being here. He did a great job giving me a skin fade and a lineup with the beard. Very skilled in his trade and an all around good guy! I definitely will be back
Osama has been my barber for years, I actually drive all the way down from orlando to get my cut. That explains it all, hands down to the best barbershop in Tampa
My boyfriend got a haircut here today and he said its the best haircut he has ever had! The fade looks great!!
Quick, clean, quality. The only place I go to.
I’ve been coming to this barber since I started going to USF (2 and a half years at time of writing this) and I wouldn’t go to any other barber. Always gives good haircuts and he even knows what I want without me having to tell him. Really friendly guy, as well. He’s also very close to The USF campus (in Tampa), so it’s really convenient for myself and other students.
Sam is the best barber I’ve found In Tampa
Good service. Received a haircut today and was pleased with the result. The barber was friendly. The website said cheaper prices for USF students and didnt receive another price option even after showing him my USF ID. Overall good experience.
Sam is the best ever
This IS the best barber in Tampa. The fact that the cuts are spectacular is just the beginning. The owner is hilarious, warm, and makes you feel like family. The prices are great and theres a discount for university students. If youre not getting your entire head cared for here you need your head examined.
Sam, your the best! Thank you!
Amazing I’m so glad we were able to get an appointment for my husband. These pandemic DIY haircuts were not working 😅
Oxygen is great!! Excellent attention to detail.
I have been going here for years now. The owner knows how to cut hair. My hair shows mistakes very clearly, so anyone who can cut it consistently and professionally is a rare find. I am happy he opened shop so close by! Recommended to anyone who likes no pressure, great prices and a laid-back vibe.
He took me in an hour after they were already closed and still cut my hair, did genuinely an amazing job - working super hard and still giving super high quality hair cuts, going to be my regular barber from now on
Sam did an amazing job on my hair. He kept the place lively and he was extremely friendly.
He was very quick and hilarious. Definitely one of my favourites! Cut and clean my Boyfriends hair and made us feel very comfortable.
Wow!! I took my son to get his hair cut for school and I can’t believe the amount of detail on his hair cut. He is very creative and quick. Although he was very busy still kept very calm and friendly. We live in Orlando but willing to travel to Tampa to come back for my sons next haircut.
They give great haircuts. I, with trepidation, went for my first haircut since COVID19. There were no masks and there was another customer getting a haircut right next to me. If the state puts out rules, they should be followed. I wore a mask to protect those within, only removing it to actually get my haircut. I would go back if I can’t find reasonable clippers myself and I knew masks were being worn/that I was the only customer in store.I can only hope nobody in there was infected.
Won’t go to anybody else besides Sam, easily the best barber in the Tampa Bay Area! Tip well and spread the love!!
Great atmosphere and great service, Sam was awesome and I will definitely be coming back he hooked me up
I’ve been getting my haircut here for about two years and have never once gotten a bad cut. It’s honestly just a really good haircut that isn’t too expensive.
My son Raymond is 3 years old and had his first hair cut here today. I was terrified but he allowed me and my husband to feel so at ease (mainly me). He was so great working with our son, had him relaxed let him pretend shave him to get him use to the the tools played joked around had him laughing. Sam knows his business and is great at his job. His passion and commitment is so dedicated. And Rays hair cut was great he looks so good he was so comfortable with Sam that he didnt cry nor move not once during the whole time.
Best barber in Tampa. He provides consistent quality cuts with competitive prices. Seriously, I have tried a lot of different barbers but this guy really knows how to cut your hair exactly the way you want it. I’ve been coming back for years.
Owner of this barbershop knows exactly what he is doing, and he does a fantastic job! I came in looking for a slicked back fade and with a picture prepared of what I wanted. He agreed that it would look good on me before he started and then he went to work on my foot long hair. He is a very friendly guy and I look forward to my next great looking fade done here at Oxygen Barber Shop! It was quite a large change for me since I grew my hair out for well over a year and he was very nice throughout the whole process and I was more than impressed with how it turned out
Sam is the best barber I have EVER been to. He’s great with women’s as well as men’s hair and he’s so friendly. 10/10!
I dont usually write reviews until after a second visit, just to make sure of my impressions.Oxygen Barbershop definitely earned this review. My first visit was great, and after the second, Im sure I have found my new barber in Temple Terrace. Sam is a great barber, who listened to what I wanted, and did a great job of cutting my hair and trimming my beard. Very friendly, knowledgeable and willing to provide grooming guidance and information. I highly recommend this shop.
Oxygen Barber Shop gained a loyal customer after only my first cut! Every cut has been perfect, and the atmosphere in the store is great. It is a great place for friends and family, and Sam specializes in cuts of all ages. I plan to continue to come back, as I couldn’t imagine anybody else cutting my hair but Sam!!
Sam is the best!! He keeps me looking jazzy! The hardest working barber in town. I am never disappointed when I leave his chair. I am a black female that has a Boss attitude that keeps a BOSS hair cut and thats thanks to Sam.
This barber is amazing did a fantastic job on my boyfriend and made great conversation the whole time with both of us the place was so clean. I highly recommend
Best place to get a haircut! Sam always does a great job and is very talented. Just try him out, I can guarantee you will love your haircut and always come back!
Sam is hands down the best Barber in town. He’s skilled in cutting all types of hair and he’s a genuinely good guy! Once you sit in his chair you will never want to see another barber again.
Love Sam, been going for a year now always let him choose what to do he knows what he’s doing . It’s very personable for a barber shop . Very clean and gives good advice for haircuts .
Great place, great experience and atmosphere. He was really sweet really patient and just amazing. My son is autistic and hates clippers but this guy knew exactly what he was doing. Didn’t wait long at all either.Thank you! We will be returning!
Super sam! Loved my haircut even though it was 5 months ago, unforgettable experience.
This is hands down the best barbershop in Temple Terrace. I walked in with coconut head hair and told Sam to give me both a professional but attractive new look, and he way outperformed any and all expectations I could have had. This man works every day all day to give people the best haircut you could ask for. He is an artist and this is his profession and has been for over 30 years, and it shows in his work. Oxygen barbershop is definitely worth a cut of your time 😁
It took me a little to find a good barber shop, starting college in a new city, but once i found Oxygen i knew this was the place. It isn’t just good it is great. The owner knows exactly what he is doing and gives the absolute best haircuts, and is also amazing with beards. I highly recommend you stop by.
Nice man but does not cut African American hair well
Freshman at USF worried about finding a good barber around the area. I visited here first and I wasnt disappointed in the slightest. Great service, the barber is very skilled and enjoyable to talk to. Price is also great. Im glad I chose Oxygen first.
Very relaxed and fast, exactly what I wanted!
This barbershop is excellent for getting haircuts. Sam (the barber) is very skilled at cutting hair and he is a very nice guy. I would recommend this barbershop to anyone.
Best place ever! The owner knows how to cut hair and is a great person! Shout out to the dude that paid for my haircut, I dont know who you are but thank you, Ill pay it forward!
BEST HAIR CUT. Sam is fun to talk with has great advice and gives quick very quality haircut.
Sam did a great job! I was looking for barbers close to the USF campus and this place popped up and I saw it had pretty good reviews, so I thought I’d check it out. He listens to you and doesn’t waste time with all the nonsense. I would definitely continue to come back here.
It’s not good it’s great. Probably the best hair stylist in the city. Never fails to amaze me with the looks he gives me. 100% satisfaction. Totally recommendable. 👌🏻
Great place, great atmosphere. The barbers here use scissors!! Not just clippers
If you’re looking for the best barbershop in Tampa look no further! Oxygen is the place for you. Very happy I found this place! Sam is a genius. If I could give it more stars I would ⭐️
Perfect at each cut. very precise at what you ask for and enjoys cutting hair with a smile. Always double-check his work as he is very patient and listens to exactly what you are asking for. Hes the only Barber I will ever go up to.
Detail oriented, master with the clippers and scissors, knowledgeable, funny, and an amazing price to go with it! Highly recommend him, DO NOT HESITATE!Sam is THE MAN! Seriously, a great barber with an even better personality. The man knows how to cut hair, he cuts fast but he does it right and because hes the only one that works there. Takes pride in his work and is very detailed. He also fixed my hair, Ive been doing it a certain way (combover) and went to at least 20 different barbers during that time and hes the only one to tell me to start doing it the other way and I have never ever been more happy, my hair finally lays exactly the way I like it.ONLY downside is that hes the only barber and sometimes theres a wait, but like I said hes pretty quick with his hands and will get to you in no time.
Sam is the best and funniest in town
This by far was the best barber Ive been to. Hes right next to USF and its easy to drop by for a walk-in appointment. Hes quick but very detailed oriented. Would recommend him to everyone!
Someone in their review said that this man cuts hair like Michelangelo chisels marble, and sweet mother of god it’s true. I‘m a senior at USF and I wish I would’ve found Sam years ago, he’s super friendly and a great guy of course, and he gave me the best haircut I’ve had in my entire life. 10/10, I’m gonna be devastated when I have to move away eventually
Sam is a very experienced barber. I have been getting my hair cut there for almost three years now since starting at USF and it has been perfect every time. The price is very good for an excellent service, I do not plan on going anywhere else for my haircut.
Real friendly guy and a great cut. Will definitely be going back
One of the best barbershops by USF, Sam is a little crazy but he’s the best barber here. If you get a haircut from Sam you’ll like it
Real professionals with real skill.Ive been coming here for some time now. Im never disappointed. A lot of barbers seem to specialize in certain types of hair, but not Oxygen.Ive seen them cut all types of hair and no one has left upset. So if you have straight, curly, long or short hair l, they can make you look better. On top of all that, the owner is a great and friendly guy. Hes a real all around pro.Glad I found this place.
Keeps the place very clean and the cuts are super fresh and super fast. I spent less time here than any other barbershop Ive experienced! Yet with the immense speed, no quality suffered whatsoever.
Good barber shop with a decent vibe, fair prices, and skilled barbers.
The owner keeps this place clean, and my haircut looked super fresh afterwards. Not only is the quality high tier, but the speed and the affordability is INCREDIBLE. I spent less time and money here than in any other barbershop Ive experienced, and I look GOOD now! Thanks Sam!
I went here once about three months ago and was very happy. I live about an hour and a half away and tried a few other places due to the drive. No one takes more care with my beard or hair like this place. Very welcoming and very well priced and well worth the drive. I won’t be going anywhere else!
Great service. He really knows what hes doing! My boyfriend and I both got haircuts and it was honestly the best haircut either of us has had in a long time!
Sam is a great barber, and if you keep going to his shop, he will.end up being a great friend of yours. I love this place.
Awesome. I walked in on a whim during my lunch break and couldnt be happier. I have really fine hair and a crazy cowlick. Owner knew exactly what to do to give me a great haircut.
Hands down best barber in whole of Tampa Bay. Sam cuts hair with passion and he surely loves his job. He takes his time while cutting your hair and he always delivers a spectacular haircut. With his talent and top notch barber skills, he always exceeds my expectations.
Been going to Sam since he opened just a year ago. Sam and Manny understand perfection and will stop at nothing to give you a quality cut. Their attention to detail and professional service are second to none. If you go anywhere else you are missing out on the best two barbers in all of Tampa Bay.
We had a terrible experience there. The first time my boyfriend went to the barbershop, he felt good so we went there again. But the tragedy happens the second time. That was Sunday afternoon about 5pm while about 5 people were waiting for the barber. Therefore, he rushed cutting my boyfriends hair. The most important thing is that his clipper cut his ear. So the result is his ear starts to bleeding. while the barber kept emphasizing that it was just a small cut. But what I saw is the blood on my boyfriends ear and shirt. We’ll never go there again!!!
If you just moved to Tampa, like myself. I HIGHLY recommend on going to this barber. If youre looking for the kind of cut where your barber actually knows what hes doing, and does HIGH QUALITY work. Manny does the best cuts, in my opinion. Ive suffered wasting money at other barber shops near me, and this is the closest one that I know that cuts my hair the way I like it. Its honestly worth the money. Especially, if youre looking for a New York style haircut. The best barbers are at this shop.
Always reliable. Have never gotten a bad cut from Sam here. Would recommend.
Dear Owner, you have no right to accuse your customers of being dishonest. I have been there 4 times and I just wanted to share my last experience. I think negative feedbacks given by your customers should be valuable to provide them with the best service. Do not worry, I deleted it. If you want I can delete this review too.I wish I gave the evidence of the fact that you was ordering food (maybe not breakfast) while cutting my hair, but the only thing I remember is that you wanted them to add olive oil at the end.
A fantastic haircut at an incredibly great price with remarkable service. The owner Sam has been my go-to barber for over a year now. Hes very skilled at what he does and really takes pride in each haircut. Hes easy-going, laid back and friendly unlike many chain or busier shops Ive gone to before. Hes efficient too - quick and easy.Its not often you get this kind of service at this kind of price.
Oh man what an experience! Hats down this barber shop is way better than any other shop or corporate shop. Throughout the whole cut there were very active conversations. If you don’t mind taking a little longer than usual then this is your go to especially if you want a barber who doesn’t hold back on giving suggestions as to how to make your cut better.
Oxygen Barbershop is an excellent place to get your haircut. Friendly and professional service that will have you coming back every time. My hair has never looked so good!
Always such a pleasant experience coming to this barbershop. Sam does phenomenal work & always leaves my wife satisfied with her fade. Great atmosphere & friendly service. I give this barber shop 5 thumbs up!!!!
Most Amazing place.It all started years ago with my special son Charlie, as I was driving home one day, I passed by here and stopped as I was running short on time yet needed Charlies hair cut.As soon as I pulled up and went in Sam immediately took Charlie from my arms to assist as he does not walk ...I was truly taken back by his sincere kindness in assisting me and till this day Sam still continues without asking to take Charlie to and from car ...Truly blessed to have met such an amazingng gentleman who cared so much in assistance without question. Truly beautiful soul !.
I was brand new to Tampa and was in need of a new barber. I had seen my previous one for roughly 4 years, so needless to say I am very particular about my hair. Sam greeted me at the door as if I were family, and has been taking care of me for the last year and a half. I could not be happier with the service, atmosphere, and overall quality of the experience at Oxygen. I have taken several friends and they have all agreed! 5 stars for this man!!
Me and my Bride found our new Barber. Great place. They are quick, but take pride in doing an awesome job. Will definitely be going back for a long time.
Very quick and clean. Thank you!
Great barber and he is a nice man. Always get my haircut here. Always leave happy.
Probably one of the best haircuts Ive ever had. I highly recommend this place.
