Super relaxed barber shop. Great environment and price. I appreciate being able to make an appointment online as well. Zach did a killer job on my hair. Will definitely be back.
I was an “out of towner” looking for a reliable place that would actually trim a beard correctly. After much research via Google and Yelp, I landed at this place.Chris was amazing. This place is not like the big box stores that get you in and get you out. They genuinely care about doing a damn good job. While I can only speak about Chris, everyone I saw working there was doing a great job. You can’t go wrong with picking this place!
I was visiting from Maryland and had some time for a haircut and needed a beard trim. This place was great and the atmosphere was even better. Hands down the best barber shop Ive ever been to. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
Ive been going there for several months to get my hair cut by Sean. Always does a great job!!
Always love coming here! Great staff & atmosphere. Appointments are always on time. Chris does an awesome job with my longer hair & now my new pixie cut that I love thanks to him! Couldn’t recommend this place enough.
I came on Google to find a barber shop I could take my 3 year old for a good hair cut. I chose this place because of the reviews and I must say I was NOT disappointed! I went online and made my appointment for the following afternoon. I was able to select the barber of my choice and the time availability was great! Overall very pleased 😀Big shout out to Chris - he was awesome with my kid, and his cut was great! My son loved the set up, the way they blow the hair of is so cool!
Just moved to Wilmington and was lucky enough to find my go to spot. Chris was amazing! He hooked me up with the best haircut and beard trim
Took my 2 year old son with me to get our haircut and wasn’t expecting a whole lot because... well he’s 2! And he’s 2! Sean was so good with him and did such a GREAT job!!! By the end of it my son was giving Sean fist bumps and looking quite dapper!!! Then Sean worked his magic on me! I showed him a pic of what the wife would accept and he went to work! I haven’t had a hair cut in quite a while so it was a few pounds of hair to deal with! On the way home my wife kept looking at me saying “he did a really good job on you!” He always does! Thanks again Sean and see ya soon!
Awesome barber shop. Chris did a great job on my haircut and beard trim. Good atmosphere, clean, movies playing on a big TV. Highly recommend!
Outstanding job as always! Rolando did a great job on very short notice!
Ive been getting my hair cut by these guys my whole life and Im 20 now. Ive never gotten a bad haircut nor seen someone get a bad haircut. Its perfect for all age brackets and is family friendly. They also have an app to schedule appointments so you dont have to walk in and wait. I would strongly recommend to anyone looking for a barber.
Very good service. My haircut was clean and very precise; I’ve never had anything like it before. Good job guys.
Excellent barber shop with great atmosphere. I was very impressed watching the other barbers take great care of the younger clientel also. Rolando gave me a great cut and Ill be returning!
Everyone one at barbers is great! Definitely the place to go!
Took my nephew there who is on the spectrum and Chris was awesome with him. He took his time and told him what he was going to do and made him really comfortable. He said he wants to go back to Chris again so thats a win and a huge compliment.
I have frequented Locals every week since moving to Wilmington. I felt nervous having to find a new place to keep my haircut fresh. Today I sat with Rolando V he really takes his time to make sure I get the precision haircut I like to have. I left amazed and will recommend everyone to come see him.
Rolando did an awesome job. My first haircut in NC and Im very impressed!!!
These guys really know how to cut men’s hair. Great atmosphere and very welcoming. I always leave feeling like I got the best hair cut in town. Thanks Rolando!
Hard to get a good haircut these days, Rolando V killed it. The attention to detail ensures your haircut done that day will stay styled for weeks to come.
Chris Mitchell always hooks it up! Fast, efficient and always has me looking right when I leave. Definitely recommend him or anyone else at locals. Great atmosphere and great barbers.
Took my 2 boys here and they did a great job. Wonderful with kids, on time, and the cut looked awesome. Great experience!!!
Matt is the best guy in the business. Go see him, you wont regret it!
Locals is the most welcoming barber shop in town with a bunch of very skilled barbers. Matt has done an amazing job improving the shop after becoming the owner, and make sure to get a reservation with him.
Always great service and relaxed environment.
Great experience overall. The shop is nice, and the employees are friendly. Hudson gave me a quick, clean cut. The complementary warm towel and shave was a great addition. Will definitely be going back.
I live in Charlotte but came here while in town based on the google reviews and it did not disappoint! Sean was awesome, personable, and very concerned with me getting the exact haircut I wanted. Cool place, cool people and a good value when compared to my regular barber back home!
So my buddy has been telling me about this place for a while. Said its the best place to go for your haircut and beard. Told me if I go I had to get his guy Chris. I drove an 1hr 30mins to Wilmington to go here. I have a wedding this weekend and had quarantine hair and beard from hell. I just have to say this Chris has me looking right again. His attention to details and making sure you looking right before he lets you leave is why I will be coming back. Well worth the drive and money. Chris thanks man! You rocked it!
Refuse to go anywhere else, these guys are the best
Top notch barber shop!! Chris has amazing attention to detail and always leaves me with a cut better than I thought was possible. Can’t speak highly enough of this place!
We have been going to Matt at Locals Barber for 2 years or so. We love being able to book online ahead of time. Matt is quick and does excellent work. Best barber shop we have tried to date!
New to area and went because of the good reviews. Very friendly group of guys and nice looking space. Chris cut my hair and and did a great job, he made sure what I wanted before and during the cut. Two kids got nice haircuts while I was waiting.Price is very reasonable!Thanks Chris
Out of all the places I’ve been to in town for a haircut, Locals Barber Shop is hands down the most convenient for me and coolest atmosphere barbershop I’ve been in since I’ve been in Wilmington. My man Chris always hooks me up with a fresh cut at an unreal deal! Clean, affordable, and welcoming.
First time ever I let someone trim my beard up! I called an hour before I needed to get in and they were able to do so and Chris did a fantastic job... It was the most thorough haircut Ive ever got! Plus a very clean and upbeat atmosphere.Ill definitely go back and would recommend it to anyone.Thank you Chris,Don
Sean was fantastic today. I just moved into UNCW, so I needed a barber. I tried him out and he made it so easy transitioning to a new barber. If you are new to Wilmy like I was, I highly recommend this guy. He listened to every concern I had, made sure I was comfortable, and took his time to make it the best experience I couldve been given. And above all, the cut was great and he even gave me some tips on how to style it!
Absolutely awesome place! Sean is the only barber I go to. Even a year after Ive moved, I wait until the next time Im in town to get a cut. Best service and best dudes in the scene. Not to mention the coolest shop; full of Americana and memorabilia. 10/10
Went to Locals for the first time and the experience was awesome. Relaxing, well-established atmosphere, great haircut, and incredibly reasonably priced. Highly recommend checking them out!
This Hands Down is the Best Barber Shop In Wilmington!!!! Great at home Vibe !! EVERY Single Barber at Locals Barber Co Has You Covered ..Whatever kind of Cut you Need ..They Got You !!!! 120% A++++++++
This place will be the only place I will ever go to again. They literally cater to your every need(as I’m very pick and aggravating). They took care of my son who is 3 and hard to deal with when it comes time to get his haircut. On a scale from 1-10 I give this place a 99
By far the best barber I’ve been too. Not just in Wilmington either. No other barber takers the time and patience to make sure your hair is perfect like they do.
This place is awesome. Matt is the new owner and not only is he an amazing barber but the shop has a super cool vibe now . I was able to watch a movie and enjoy a beer while he did my hair and beard. The staff is super friendly and professional. I definitely recommend going there when you want that perfect barbershop experience.
Went to the newest Barber Ranoldo I believe !! Treated fabtastic
Rolando is the man! Great atmosphere.
Great shop, Sean took his time and fit us right in the next day for two appointments. We live in MA and no barber can compare. My son and husbands hair came out perfect. Would highly recommend this barber shop. If you’re in a hurry and don’t care about great customer service then this is not the place for you.
I am from out of town and needed a great haircut for my daughter’s wedding. Sean squeezed me in and did a terrific job with cut, beard trim, and shave. My hair looks great! Sad that we don’t have a shop like this in Memphis.
Great as always ... Chris has always done me right ... great place.
Great atmosphere the place looks clean and I always come out looking great.
Fast and friendly service. I got exactly the haircut that I asked for and I was just a walk-in client.I highly recommend!
Wonderful barbershop! Nice, friendly atmosphere. Sean and Matt are great at what they do. Sean takes his time and always sends my son off stylishly ! My son now looks forward to his haircuts!
Great experience!!Rolando is top notch, very professional!!
Nice barber shop. Takes you back in time but with a modern flair
First time at this location and it will definitely become my new barbershop. Chris cut my hair and he did a phenomenal job. He cared about my cut and it shows. I’ve used other shops in the area and in my opinion, this is the best.
Awesome job on my little prince! Thank you Chris for taking your time in perfecting his cut just the way he wanted it. You are a credit to your profession and we will be back to visit you soon.
Excellent haircut. Nice atmosphere. Definitely going back and would recommend to anyone looking for a barbershop. Thanks Chris!!
Matt and Sean both give a great haircut every time! I have been a customer for over a year and wouldn’t go to any other barber shop in Wilmington. Even more improvements have been made under the new management!
Matt, the new owner, is AWESOME! Love the vibe in the place now. Its not your typical baber shop. Its way, WAY better!! Kid friendly and parent approved!!
Congrats to Matt and his new ownership position! My guy has been cutting my hair for over a year now and ill never let anyone else. Grab a beer on the house while you wait! Best barbershop in town!
This barber shop has probably been my best experience of getting my hair cut. The barbers are extremely polite and patient with their customers. They take their time with your hair and spark genuine conversation. Since I was a student in Wilmington, they gave me a discount! **NOTE** Book an appointment before you go here. Walk-ins are welcome, but they normally are loyal to their appointments.
I always get a great haircut from Matt. Really like what hes done with the place this year
Ask for rolando, good guy
Sean did a great job cutting my 4&7 year olds hair today. He is very good with kids & even offered us a beverage! We’ll be back for sure!
It took me a long time to find a good barber shop in Wilmington, but this is it. My go to. All three people can turn your hair into awesome. The owner Justin is a good person and always takes his time to make sure youre satisfied.
Matt Donofrio is awesome & dependable! Great haircuts, convenient location, relaxed atmosphere and easy to book appointments via the Booksy app. I’ve been going there for a couple years now, and it’s always an enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!
I have been looking for a barber like Locals Barber Co. for a long time. From the beginning, they accept walk-ins and online appointments. Very cool. I made an online appointment for 4:30. When I arrived, immediately Ben addressed me by my name. I felt right at home from the first moment.I got a perfect haircut with a straight edge blade cut behind my ears and around my neck for $18. Followed up with a hot towel and menthol cool down. Better than I had from any american barber. Thanks Ben.And most satisfying, an in town barber shop without NRA & evangelical doctrine promotions all over the wall.
Hudson did haircuts for my husband and son yesterday. Not only did he do an awesome job, he was incredibly patient and kind to my 18 month old son who wasn’t being the easiest client to say the least, which I definitely appreciate!
Best barber shop in town Sean is the man
Been searching for a great barber for years and ever since Matt has cut my hair I refuse to go to anyone else. Thanks again Matt
Chris was lit. 10/10
Great haircut and conversation from Ben, I will definitely recommend to others. He took time making sure the cut was perfect and showed me different styling options, finishing with a straight razor neck shave and hot towel. It was my first haircut here and I was greeted with my name like other reviews have stated. Ive been to several barbers in Wilmington and Bens customer service and barbershop experience is the best.
Glad to see the shop managed by Matt. Staff here is amazing and they do quality work! Thanks Sean for a fresh cut!
Locals is an awesome atmosphere! Sean listens to what I want and consistently takes his time while paying close attention to detail!
This place is great! Other barber shops in town you often have to wait just to get a haircut. Love their option to make an appointment quick and easy online. Even same day appointments. Highly recommend!
Nice guys nice cuts!
This is the place to go..was a little rocky for a while but now under new owner and back to the best!!!!! Matt is the man...if u had a bad experience with it before and the previous owner well go back and see for yourself Matt has turned it around
Locals is a great place to chill for a great haircut. Sean takes his time and gives a precision cut.
Great atmosphere, they play movies or classic rock, fooz ball table, light drinks available. Ask for Mathew, he is very professional! Does mostly man haircuts. But, I go there for my color and cut . Followed him from his school training cause he is so good! Best to call for an appointment.
Matt does a fantastic job each time recommend to everyone I know needing a cut 10/10!!!
Matt did an excellent job on both my hair and beard. Great job with the straight razor to. He was meticulous with his work like an artist. Great job. Will definitely be recommending him to my friends.
Great place and Sean gives a great shave.
Worst haircut I’ve ever had, walked in and absolutely nobody was there I waited 5 minutes for him to walk out from the back, it was pretty creepy, asked him to take half an inch off the top and ended up taking off about an inch and a half. Terrible edge up, he didn’t even know what a skin taper was. Don’t go here.
Best barber shop in town
Been going to Matt D at Locals for 2 years now and I cant recommend him enough. Always professional, on time and does a great job!
Got my long beard trimmed up here before a wedding. Best barber shop Ive found since I grew it!
Matt always does a good job. Ability for appointments is a huge plus for a busy family. Welcoming and clean!
Best cut Ive had in a long time. Walked in and was treated like a long time customer. Well kept place. Matt cut my hair and was awesome! Would highly recommend them to anyone.
I have been getting my hair cut in Wilmington for a year and a half tried several different barber shops this one is by far the best at cutting hair and they have the best staff around if your not satisfied with your barber then you should definitely try out your local barber shop for the best experience and a great hair cut
Came in from Atlanta, was hoping to find a modern style Barber shop. Locals was exactly what I was looking for. Matt gave me a great cut, knew exactly what I wanted. Best cut Ive had in awhile.
My fiancé just went there to get a trim before our wedding. He had an appointment at 10, but the hours posted were 9-6 and people were waiting outside for an hour before Justin showed up. He’s pretty sure the guy was stoned or on some kind of meds. Justin nicked him with a straight razor and he has gouges in his hair from the trimmer. Beard was uneven but we were able to fix that. We have multiple pictures of the inadequate haircut that should’ve been a simple trim. Stay very far away.
Please dont book any early appointments with Justin. Me and my girlfriend were suppose to get haircuts at 9 and 930 this morning. We were there right at 9 when Matt opened. We waited over 20 mins for Justin to show up and he never did. He didnt even have the common courtesyto call or text to say he was running late. Hey I know we are all busy and time gets away from us but its pretty rude to A. Not show up and B. To not even give us a heads up. Im very disappointed because he does give really good haircuts but now I feel I have to find a new barber....
Justin is top of the line. Hes been my barber for the past 5 years or more and Ive never been let down. Make sure you check him out!
Justin has been cutting my hair for over 10 years. Always great service and the new shop has a fantastic vibe. Hes great with kids as well. He cut my 3 year olds hair for the first time today and was fast, attentive, and of course did a great cut.
Justin and Matt are awesome. Prices are good. Atmosphere is friendly. If you are looking for a hometown barber shop, look no further.
Great experience!! Shop is amazing, very relaxing while you wait. Justin and Matt are awesome. Would recommend to any and everyone.
Ben Jones is the man! Conversive, takes his time, and really does a great job on the haircut. Hit them up for your next cut, you wont be disappointed.
