What a wonderful experience! My boyfriend and I were passing through Virginia Beach on our way to OBX and he was badly in need of a hair cut and beard trim. Found this place from a quick google search and decided to stop in and I’m so glad we did! It’s a quaint little place with lots of charm and the service literally could not have been better. Greg the shop owner was the only one on at the time but we only had to wait a short time while he finished another cut before he worked his magic on my boyfriend. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable, he had great suggestions to make the cut come out exactly how my boyfriend wanted. Also trimmed his beard, neck, and even eyebrows! Straight razor shave on the neck was the icing on the cake and my boyfriend came out looking better than I’ve literally ever seen him. Shop was clean and comfortable, and Greg and another regular who was waiting chatted with us the whole time like they’d known us all our lives. Pricing was beyond fair and the whole experience was simply fantastic. 100% recommend this place to anyone in need of a fresh cut!
Awesome location. Super friendly old school barbershop. Great people there. They have regulars for a reason. Fair pricing and most of all a great haircut. You wont regret it.
Great people. Great place. Be sure and say hi to Lilly.
Great price and friendly environment. All the customers there seemed like regulars and I expect to be one as well. And the haircut was great too!
Walked in for a haircut, only a short wait. Christine cut my hair, did a great job. Well trimmed on sides, over and behind my ears.
Nice guy ok price for hair cut
Consistently great haircuts and friendly, professional staff. Very fair prices too.
Myrna is amazing ... 5☆s!!!Shes an excellent Stylist w/ the experience to accommodate any style. She always leaves my Mohawk flawless & edged to perfection.Living close by, whenever I pop-in for a clean-up, she goes above & beyond to accommodate me ... always coming up front to greet me & let me know when shell be able to squeeze me in.Gregorys Oceanfront Barbershop is a clean & safe establishment to patronize during the COVID-19 epidemic. Their staff is following & enforcing all of the necessary protocols to protect their staff & clients.
Brilliant cut. I will be back!
Great people there. They do great work.
Best place for a vintage style gentlemans haircut. Barber Svan always takes care of my hair everytime I go.
Absolutely love this place! The atmosphere is so friendly and I believe they really care. Everyone gets to know your name and greets you when you come in. The service is terrific and the prices are very reasonable. Greg is great! Myrna couldnt be any kinder or more efficient! They are professionals and always try to please the customers! I would definitely recommend both men and women give this sweet old beachy shop a try!
I have been a patron of this particular shop for almost 25 years (since it was on one block over on Holly Road and operated by Tommy the Greek). Greg has been doing a great job of running the shop for quite some time now. Its still got a nice local feel and there are some excellent barbers in there. Greg, Myrna, Svan, and Mary Ellen consistently give me excellent haircuts. You can even get an old fashioned straight razor shave too.Barber shops like this are rare. If youre looking for a mall or shopping strip type of chain...this is not going to be what youre looking for.Theres a separate salon room too. Greg always keeps my wifes hair looking great. Small local feel, great customer service, more than fair prices, and an experienced staff of hair professionals make this place an oceanfront treasure. Thanks for keeping it going Greg.
Such a nice place I almost dont want to tell anyone.
Great place, Kalliope gives the best cuts!!
Gregs shop and staff are very pleasant and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is part of the appeal which makes getting a good cut much more than an item on my to do list!
Fantastic family owned business, my whole family goes here and my kids do great.
Friendly, good quality
Best haircut in Virginia Beach!! staff is as friendly as it gets, great atmosphere. 10/10 recommend to anyone!!!
Be careful men. The blonde woman will take you to the back where she will mess up your hair and charge you $18 behind the owners back. Had to call in and request them to fix it. She may very well be racist too. Since the second time she knew what she was doing where as the first time she knowingly messed up my fade and cut everything uneven.You would expect someone her age wouldnt be this disrespectful. I have never in my life been treated like this and will not recommend this to others.I dont even mind paying $20 for a haircut but the way I have been treated blew my mind. As someone in charge of the IT infrastructure of several offices in the US I am well versed and treat anyone I meet with the respect they deserve on top I will also give them the best service I can provide no matter the heritage or look.This is something she may have not been taught in her life. Not sure if this may be also a lack of cultural appreciation or education. But let me tell you, you never know who you may be talking or servicing too. So give everyone the best service and show yourself from your best side not your worse.Definitely will be passing this on. If anyone has the same experience. Do stand your ground because racism has no place in the 21st century. Especially not if you are running a business and expect to be successful.
Old school barber shop, they atmosphere and style is really cool 1950s with a modern twist. The owner Greg is very talented and friendly too. The tiny little shop watchdog, Lilly, is so full of love and willing to anything to get attention. So adorable. Great prices and cuts. Salon section for the ladies too.
Very bad haircut very disappointed do not recommend go there
Probably the black man that got a haircut here
Ive never experienced a trim and shave like this before. The barber was ex-military and had a ton of stories and experience. He walked me through each step in the process and educated me on each decision point. I even opted for the straight razor shave and it did not disappoint. If you have a beard and need a trim or shave this is your guy.
My great barber...Ann is super...Need more like her
Ive been going to this barber shop for almost a year. Never been let down by Gregory. Customer service is a 5/5. Very welcoming place to get a cut. I always get exactly what im looking for when i go here. Good haircuts, Kind employees; no cons to this establishment. Best barber shop in Virginia Beach without a doubt.
On vacation, looking for a place to get a haircut. Im so glad I found this place! The staff is incredibly friendly, Gregory himself cut my hair and was awesome! Always was talkative and polite.Wish this barber shop was back home.If your in the VA Beach area, and looking for a good cut and great people, this is the place to go!!!
Kalliope is a super talented hairdresser. Excellent customer service. Thank you!!
Got my first haircut here yesterday and Gregory did a great job. Told him what I wanted and he knew exactly how to do it. Very reasonable prices along with a military discount. I will definitely be back again 👍
Ive only been there once, but they did a good job on my hair. They were friendly and very reasonably priced. I called ahead because it was close to closing time and they didnt hesitate to tell me to come in anyway. They even kept the store open 5 minutes late instead of rushing to get my hair done. I would definitely go back.
My husband only needed a medium fade and a little off the top. While we were waiting, the lady accidentally cut her customers lip with her clippers as she was trying to shave his mustache. That shouldve been a red flag- my husbands haircut was so sloppily done. The back of his neck isnt trimmed and lined up. I can see she wasnt careful as she trimmed around his ears; there are lots of uncut hairs that she missed. The sides are also uneven. Even if youre just looking for a basic haircut, I wouldnt go here.
Gregs the man
Got my hair cut and shaved by Svon. Cannot recommend him highly enough! Great at conversation but is willing to have a quiet cut if you prefer. He gave me some great ideas for the bears and extending the life of my style, fantastic!
Greg has cut my hair for two years and always does a great job. Good family atmosphere, unlike those chain places.
Greg an some of the other long time employees are great but the new Red head female barber is incompetent.. must not be able to understand English
Love this place. Very very nice employees and they never disappoint. Always walk out the place with a perfect hair cut.
Quick and a great cut. Even shaved the back of my neck. My new spot for haircut l haircuts in Virginia Beach.
Gregory has very good customer service the shop is very patriotic. I was hoping gregory was going to cut my sons hair. We are here on vacation. Im used to when he gets a cut the line is tight. I had to request it. The hair was not brushed off him.3 stars for Greg customer service not the cut that someone else did
Very friendly staff...
This is my barbershop and its my go to place for my monthly buzz cut. Gregory and his other barbers, stylist, whatever you want to call them, do a great job. Mary Ellen is still here! Lilly will visit you at the door to say hello too. The sweetest little dog in the world.
Everyone here seems really nice and on their game, I saw Christina and she is awesome!
Very nice staff, Gregory did haircut for me last time and it was awesome! Will definitely be back! Prices are reasonable as well
My husband is in the Navy and always goes to the NEX to get his haircut. However, they always chop up his hair and hurt his neck etc. Gregory Barbershop did THE best job on his hair. The owner walked my husband through everything he was doing, was gentle, and did a fantastic fade on him AND was given a great military discount. Highly highly recommend for military guys.
If there was a no star option Id give them that if you are of African American decent dont bother going here this is one of those we dont service your kind here boy establishment after walking a mile and a half to get here I was promptly told they do not cut my kind of hair and asked to leave their establishment Im sorry I thought in 2017 that barbers cut ALL KINDS of hair my mistake wont make it again and if your black please save yourself the time go somewhere else your money is not welcome here
Outstanding attention to detail, very friendly and polite. If I lived here it would be the only place Id go for a cut. Great customer service and a great price. 👍
Great haircut for a great price.
Tried it out for the first time yesterday. Jimmy did a great job on my cut. Turned out exactly as I wanted. Friendly service!
By coming here, I had the best haircut since Ive came to Virginia Beach. Ive been here for 2 years. Finally after sitting in the NEX waiting to get my normal haircut, I decided to go and try another barbershop other than the few Ive tried and the NEX. It looks great and it felt like he cared about how my hair looked. Jimmie, you rock! Good military discount, hot razor cut, and courteous staff. If I had two hands Id give it four thumbs up.
Best haircut Ive had in a long time. It was a very good straight razor fade
Ive been going to the same guy for over 10 years till he lost his mind LOL.I had seen Gregorys for a while and decided to give them a shot. I called and they stayed open for me on Saturday evening. Let me cut to the chase. It is the BEST haircut that I have had in 20 years or maybe ever.
Svan is the best barber ever!!
Amazing experience very knowledgeable going back here every time.
Friendly, great haircuts.
Amazing
People are friendly here & the haircut was just as I asked but the beard trim not so much. I am still trying to straighten that out. I will go back again but I will be taking care of my own beard.
Low fade. “Trying to grow the top out and down. AKA. Don’t trim the top of my hair wire your clippers. Fail! However, very nice staff.
Christina gave me an excellent hair cut.
GC hacked my sons hair 2 days before start of school. Gregory answered the call to correct their lack of skill and within an hour and change we were down there and out with the situation properly addressed. Kudos to great service and an excellent outcome! No more GC...finally found a quality place!
Lots of fun in a professional setting. And the barber feels like a relaxation getaway
Great barbershop! Very pleasant and welcoming staff. Their haircuts and customer service are top notch!
Good Barber Ive been there since I was a kid
Svan and Kalliope always hook me up, Classic barbershop feel and reasonable prices
Tried a bunch of places around Virginia Beach, this is the only one Ive found that gives me a cut that I consistently like.
Best Haircut Ever-Svan is the man, very knowledgeable and patient. I will definitely be coming back.
So glad we went here! They were so patient with my wiggly boys, and their haircuts were awesome for a terrific price!
Go to barber for military cuts, great prices and great haircuts! Plus open on sundays
Fast, friendly service and good haircuts.
Hmmm......First time you did a great job for my husband .Second time it was not good at all .....
Friendly place with very nice people
Very friendly and accommodating, know how to give a proper military hair cut as well.
My last barber messed up my hair pretty bad, but Greg fixed it up and made it look great! Highly recommend to anyone in the area.
Super friendly. Very knowledgeable. Great experience.
Calm, fast and very good. Thank you to Kalliope who did absoluty amazing on my hair, I highly recommend this barber shop.
Great haircut !!!
Worst haircut Ive ever had in my life, asked for a mid fade and got a line on the side of my head, do not get cut here .
Gregorys is the place to go for cut and color. Always and I do mean always get the best service as soon as you walk in. The only place I will go.
Whatever you do DO NOT GO TO THE LADY WORKING HERE!!!! Didnt catch her name, but she was the older foreign (Eurpoean/Mediterranean) woman...She absolutely butchered my hair!!!! I was not facing the mirror while I was getting my haircut so I had no idea what she was doing. I only knew she taking a long time which is odd for just a trim. When she gave me the mirror it was like two different haircuts in one, i.e. no fade - just two distinct lengths next to each other. I had to regrettably ask her to try and fade it which only made her cut higher and higher. She knew she was messing up even when I didnt say anything. She kept saying I dont know why I cant do it right. Exactly what you want to hear from your barber...Not only that, the owner, Gregory, was casually talking about opening longer hours to the customer in the next chair. My barber kept talking under her breath about how she doesnt want to work that long. Then she started talking about evil spirirts and other random nonsense.... I have no idea how that came about.Only reason why I gave two stars is because Gregory seems to be a nice enough guy. Very personable and seemed to give great cuts to his customers.At least my hair will grow back...
Extremely kind staff! Probably the best haircut Ive got in a while too!
Gregory does a great job. Best hair cut on the beach, hands down.
Very high quality for a great price
My go-to spot in Virginia Beach. Have known Greg for years and it has been awesome to watch his business grow!
Svan and Gregory run the best mens barbershop in Virginia beach. This is a great place for a haircut.
The best barbershop I’ve ever went to. Professional barbers.
Lol the 1 star review on here never actually happened by the way, some people just want to spread fake hate. Anyways, this place rocks! I just moved to the area and was looking for a quality shop (aka not a supercuts or sportclips) and I found this spot. Svan did an awesome job and gave suggestions on what to do. Since ideas starting my first job the next day he gave me some advice based on his recommendations and I came away with a great haircut! I will definitely be back! Seems like everyone here really knows there stuff and cares about their customers! I found my go-to barbershop 👌
Been going here for 25 yrs but Ill never return after my barber cut up my neck in 3 places shaving the hair line.She was in a rush with a bunch of kids who came in......Ill never return !
Best haircut in Virginia Beach
Caliopi(sp) does a wonderful job!!
Great service, very friendly, reasonably priced and great hair cut!
Then only people in the shop that can give skin fades are the guys there. Both of the women have left unfaded lines in my hair.
We love it here!
Fast haircut good people
I have been getting my hair cut by Mary Ellen for over 20 years.
Fantastic haircut, great conversation, fun atmosphere.
Excellent service, couldnt be happier! Thanks :)
Excellent haircut and even better customer service
Had Gregory cut my hair. Very friendly, professional. Haircut was exactly what I wanted.
