I had Rene cut my hair at another business he worked at prior and I will never go to anyone else. Rene takes his time to make sure my beard, eye brows and hair look amazing EVERY TIME. I don’t care if I have to drive from Cornelius to Tigard to get it done by him. It’s worth it! 5 stars!

Shawn gave me a great professional haircut. His ability to make his customers comfortable was very apparent, even for the ones before me. 5/5 would recommend

René was my barber. Nice guy, but DO NOT let him touch your hair, especially your beard. I wanted to trim my beard, he butchered it. Its short, and very uneven. Shaved my head, and left patches of longer hair. I could have done all that myself, for free. Hey, but at least I got a free comb! Youd be better off doing it yourself, that way you have no one else to blame but yourself when its as messed up as mine looks. Would not recommend to anyone.

Best barber in the area. I was tired of paying for a weak cut from some body who doesnt care.... then I found Empyre. Matthews passion is cutting hair and it shows in his work and his shop. He Took his time fading me up and the whole staff treats you with all the respect you deserve. Aloha shop is brand new and looks fantastic, all white with black trim and hip hop memorabilia on the walls. The price is definitely worth the experience.

Empyre is a professional barber shop that does exceptional quality haircuts/fades. “How can we serve you” is there slogan and it couldn’t be more accurate. I noticed a few bad reviews on here and was shocked. One bad experience is not a representation of the barbershop.

Waste of time. I scheduled a cut for 3pm. Walk in at 2:45 as requested per the appointment. Rene said hes running 20 mins late. I chose to wait since all the review are so good. The time is now 4pm and hes still currently working on the same guy. Now his 4pm appointment is here and having to wait. Dont waste your time!

Im fairly introverted myself so going into new business as a stranger gives me minor social anxiety. These guys were very welcoming and made the whole vibe comfortable for me to socialize with them while Teresa did an awesome job on my fade.Im not mad at it, but the only criticism I have to offer is that my appointment was pushed back 20 minutes.I was told that they will clean your neck up in between cuts. If they deliver on that with working me in on time I could easily give this place 5 stars.

This is the spot, online booked my appointment with Teresa and received a quality cut. The employees here take the time to make sure you are happy. Highly recommend. This place almost 5 star for a reason.

Review №13

Looks like a few barbers here can blaze a cut. But what’s the point of an appointment if you can’t keep it. Also 30$ for a decent cut on my 4 year olds a bit much especially when it’s just ok..... welll edit a few hours later and they refunded my money so they are willing to stand by their work. There were a few really skilled barbers in there and since he didn’t hesitate to refund a benji I’ll definitely be back to give em another shot.

After years in the area surrounding Portland, Ive found a few good places with a few good people, but St. B blows them all out of the water. Personable, easy going, easy to talk too, and a great cut and beard trim to go with it. The first barber Ive ever said Just do whatever you think is best and not had any concern with what the result would be. Absolutely the best cut you can get at any cost. And then you see the price and it feels even better. Come here, let St. B go to town, be happy with the result.

Great location! Always clean, love the online interface for making an appointment vs having to call or show up and wait. The team here is VERY attentive to Covid precautions to keep folks safe. Best music selection of any haircut place Ive been to in my nearly 40 years of getting haircuts. Appreciate their willingness to take on my quarantine overgrown mop earlier this summer 🤣

One of the best haircuts Ive had in a while. Usually i just take some Whal clippers and hit a 1 all the way across. Teresa took care of me 100%. Plus you get to hear some old school while getting cut up.

If you want a reliable haircut, this is the spot. I’ve had my hair cut by multiple barbers here and I always leave happy. It’s nice to go somewhere and know you are in good hands. This js definitely “the spot”.

Like many people, I grew out my beard and hair while staying in home quarantining. My barber SaintB hooked me up with a clean haircut and gave me a lot of recommendations on how I should trim/style my beard. I will definitely be back!

Review №36

I’ve been going to Star for a little under a year. I wanted to give myself some time before I reviewed because I’ve had barbers and hair stylists in the past who have been great at first and then their quality of work goes down. I’ve also been watching how other barbers in this shop cut and they all are very detail oriented. EMPYRE continues to do amazing work. I’ve also watched the owner provide awesome support to the barbers around him. I’ve heard references of cutting black hair as an art-form, which I whole heartedly agree with. Star is an incredible barber who also happens to be a really nice person. My son will be having his first hair cut with Star and I trust her skills. As a person of color it can be hard to find safe spaces in this community, and I can say I actually feel safe here. It’s also really wonderful to feel so welcomed. This shop is an asset to this community and I’m so grateful I found it. Keep up the amazing work, you guys are rocking it! Finding competent people who can cut black hair is rough in the burbs, but it’s not an issue for my son and I now.

I had the pleasure of getting the chance to come back into town and get my hair clipped by Behenia. Best barber ever. Clean lines, expert service, and amazing personality. Will return again, even if it means flying up from my hometown of San Francisco, California.

Thank you Teresa Ruiz for an amazing haircut. The focus and attention to detail at Empyre Barbers by all the staff is beyond what I have seen or experienced anywhere else. Teresa not only gave me a fantastic haircut, but her genuinely positive attitude and overall niceness was much appreciated. I highly recommend visiting Empyre as I am sure you will agree it is top shelf in every aspect.

I love this shop. I first saw Cassandra here and she is on point. Great hair cut really quick. She is super friendly and professional, asking all the expected questions ahead of time. After that I had to get a cut but she wasnt available so I went to whoever is free. I have done that twice now and not been disappointed. They have a clean shop and are always friendly. You cannot go wrong getting your hair cut here. They also all do a really clean High Skin Fade.

The barber Amanda texted my personal cellphone her cash app scan code and pretty much demanded I pay her $30 because a emergency happened, with a rental car and instead of being understanding tried to pressure me to send her money, so I blocked her and will never be returning here nor my husband.

Review №48

Sooooo glad I found this place! I’d been struggling to find a good barber for a couple years, but then I found Saint B... she has consistently given me the best haircuts I’ve ever had. Saint B take the time to be extremely thorough, understanding my hair and head shape, and pays attention to the smallest of details. Even more importantly, she is a spectacular human being and I enjoy our visit every time I come in... she’s a one of a kind, awesome person! Every time I leave Empyre I feel good, look good, and get mad compliments! I’ll never go anywhere else. Thanks Saint B!😎👊🏻

Got a cut with Jake, gave me a real clean haircut, has the best fade game i have ever seen, Had a great conversation he’s upfront honest and cares about his customers. If you get a cut here i highly suggest a cut with Jake or Matt It cost a little more but definitely worth it. Also really cool interesting people and a positive environment 10/10

Review №53

I had the same barber for three years, and got a haircut every other week. Once I moved to Beaverton, and tried a few different barbers, I was worried I wouldn’t find another shop like my old one. Leaving Empyre today, I feel like I’ve found my new shop. Great staff, very friendly, best prices in the area. I would recommend this place to anyone in need of a haircut. The only negative I’d have is the parking, it’s in a bit of a small lot. But overall, 10/10. Superb job guys.

Jake cut my hair for the first time yesterday, (my current barber is on vacation for the next 3 months) and Jake did an incredible job! We got along so well, we discussed my hair strategy, play by play and ended up with a win! Ill definitely see Jake for the next few months and might make a permanent switch. THANKS JAKE! And thank you to everyone else who was super welcoming and I noticed other clients in the chairs with amazing hair cuts and fades.

Mathew and his staff at EMPYRE are hands down some of the best Barbers around. My family has been coming to him for over 8 years and we will continue to come to him at EMPYRE! This shop has an old school feel with a clean, warm and positive environment, you feel like part of the family every time you come in. I live in San Diego and make a point to come a get cut with Mathew or his staff every time Im home.

Have been a client of the owner for about a year. When I heard he opened his own shop I had to check it out. The vibe is awesome, the store looks great, I was blown away. Loved the haircut I got and will continue to go back. For my busy work life style, I love being able to book all my cuts ahead of time as well!

Review №66

Iam very particular on who cuts my hair. Twice have I been to empyre and both times I left with an amazing haircut for a really reasonable price. Why does two times matter? Because the first time I booked with Cassandra, the second time (accidentally thinking the same it was the same person) I booked with Amanda. Both ladies absolutely killed it. Talent in every booth. I wont go anywhere else.

I really wanted to give this place 5 stars, but being a walk-in I had a long wait.Tip: book your time on their website.I will definitely be back to this inviting and top notch barbershop. The wait and the price($25) was worth one of the best cuts Ive ever had.

Empyre Barbers is excellent! After having my wife cut my hair for the past 8 years or so, I decided to switch it up and go to a barbershop. I researched quite a few and ended up going to Empyre. Im glad I did. I was a bit nervous at first considering I had been doing the same thing for so long but everyone was really welcoming and Matthew did a great job. Ive been stopping in (scheduling online only takes about 2 minutes) every two to three weeks now for a few months and its always a good time. Friendly staff, clean shop, great cut. I highly recommend this place. You wont be disappointed!

Recently follow BowTie Red from another salon that took me 5 minutes round trip. Now it is 30 minutes one way, and I am happy to make the drive. She is an amazing person who makes sitting in a chair an experience not just something that you got to get done every few weeks. The shop has that old barber feel. Conversations, joking, and advice. If you are tired of the number system and are an, enjoy the moments kind of person. Give it a try, I think you’ll like it!

You cant get any better than Jake Sperry! He does it right, Every time, and if you change your mind, he will do whatever you ask without the slightest hint of displeasure. He has been cutting my sons and my hair for several years, now. His eye is impeccable and he his shears and clipper skills are amazing! I would not think of going anywhere else. Empyre Barbers is a great place to be. Everyone is so welcoming and Matt is at the healm if a very classy establishment.Their rates are very reasonable and the location is easy to get to. Parking is never an issue, either. I hope and trust that Empyre will be around for a Very long time! Sperry, Matt & All; thank you so much for everything you do for your clients!From your very happy customers, Kara & Kenneth

Star cut my hair today and it was awesome. She used to cut my hair a few years ago and when she left that job I started bouncing around. I recently had the worst cut of my life at a different shop, it isn’t all fixed yet but Star got me looking respectable again. I will obviously be back.

Dr. TJ Vanidestine, Chiropractor.Star Lawson has been incredible! I have been trusting her with my hair cuts and lineups over the past few months.

I would highly recommend you reach out to Star at Empyre Barbers for your next cut or lineup!

Don’t mess around with going somewhere else thinking you’re gonna get a good cut or get your beard trimmed up just right. Matthew and the staff at Empyre Barbers are hands down the best. Everyone else is just gonna mess you’re fade up, and ruin your perfectly grown beard and you’ll end up at Empyre looking for a professional to fix someone else’s hack job.

Since graduating college and moving back home I’ve needed to find a new barber. I’ve found just that at Empyre Barbers with Red. After the first time at the shop, my mom saw what she had done and made my dad schedule an appointment with Red because moms wanted him to look as good as I did.If you want a great cut and great experience with an old school meets new school vibe at a relatively competitive price point, give your neighborhood Empyre Barbers a shot👌🏻
