“I don’t know where to begin. I had a horrible haircut from another place and horrible doesn’t even describe it. My parents said to go to salon 500 she does a great job. So the next day I did. I told her what happened and she was shocked. Connie fixed my hair and did an absolute great job. She takes her time and listens to what you want and concerns you have. I will be going back for sure I give her 10 stars Thank you so much Connie for making my hair look so much better your a rock star!!!“

Stylist: Daniel - great conversation and timely!!“

“Stopped in as an out of town first time customer and had the pleasure of Kat cutting my hair. She did a truly exceptional job and gave me exactly the cut I was looking for. She was incredibly friendly and took the time to get to know what I was looking for. I cannot recommend her enough and would absolutely go to her exclusively if I lived full time in the area. 5/5 stars snd 10/10. Thank you Kat!“

“Abby did an amazing job on my cut, I'd definitely return for her service. Friendly and engaging.“

“Please read: After my former barber moved, I started looking for someone new as my regular barber. Life long westsider, hit all the nice new spots on Bridge st. Some ok cuts, not great. Read all the reviews on “Drew” great reviews as a whole for the shop. Booked the appointment, realizing Drew was the newer guy I was concerned, to be honest. I need a good fade. Will travel and pay when it comes to a proper trim. Couldn’t be more happy with the direction I took that day. Drew’s the man??‍♂️. Takes his time, steady, focused, everything you could ask for. I’d give him 10 stars if possible. Based on merit alone.

The please read was for this. Had been meaning to write this man a review for weeks now. How could I not today?

Fairly warm day today, rode my bike to the appointment. Sit right down. Drew gets going. Normal friendly conversation. I was a bit sweaty walking in from my ride. Mid cut I started not feeling well. Sweating heavier. A panic attack? Dehydration? Who knows? Felt “off”, asked Drew for some water. Pretty sure he was noticing something may be wrong already. Drops what he’s doing. Grabs me a glass. Started sweating more. Felt a bit panicked, I’m 42 with a kid. Bad things can happen. Blacked out. Woke up in his chair to a paramedic. Long story short, they checked me out. Refused an ambulance to the hospital. Got some food and liquids. Came back to pay, super embarrassed. First thing said was shear concern for how I was feeling. After mentioning I felt much better, Drew immediately started figuring out where he could slip me in to finish my cut. I blacked out mid cut. It’s also the end of the day. He took care of me though. Slotted me in, finished the cut including the alterations to my regular I mentioned at the very beginning pre black out. Just feeling really appreciative of both Drew and the whole team up there.

I rarely write reviews. No affiliations. I started going to this place by chance. Scheduled with Drew because of the other reviews. I’m just really appreciative. I highly doubt I would have dropped dead today with out paramedics. However, you never know. It’s also a weird spot to put someone in. Means a lot more to me than a good fade. Why go elsewhere when you can get both though.

Requested style: Hard part, high fade“

“I had a great experience and got an amazing skin fade, done with precision and care. I’ll be back here!“

“I’ve been getting haircuts at 1890s for nearly two years now and my experience has always been very positive! All the stylists I’ve had were great at listening to my request, they took time to understand what kind of cut I wanted and checked to make sure I was happy with the results afterwards. The atmosphere here is also very relaxed and friendly. The services here are also consistent and professional, I’ve rarely had to switch a time or stylist after making an appointment. I have no reservations about recommending 1890s as a quality business for barbering services in GR!“

“Very kind, talented, and personable barber. Great prices and great conversation! Being a Veteran himself, his flat tops are the best in town!

“I have been a customer since 1995.Dan is a great barber and runs a great barber shop with very good prices!!! I am so blessed to have a barber and friend like Dan!!!“

“I've been getting my cuts from John Stockdale for at least a year now. That guy is one of the most genuine and polite people I've ever encountered! He's always honest and willing to work with me on whatever whacky styles I'm feeling at the time. I once asked him for a reverse mohawk as a joke, and the guy really delivered because it somehow looked fantastic. That takes talent!

Also, after several haircuts and in-depth conversations, he convinced me to try sobriety. I'm going on 4 months clean from drugs or alcohol right now. Happiest and healthiest I've ever been!

I rate the haircut and atmosphere at a 7 out of 5!“

“Great local barbershop with friendly staff. Low key vibe and they happily take walk-ins which is really nice!
