Barber Shops near Sunset Valley

“Had a taper fade donetoday. I’ve been trying to find a good barber for a while and I found him. My hair always looks it’s best after my appointments with Patrick. Thank you so much. Will be back“

“I stumbled across Short Hair Company when my longtime stylist, Christina, started cutting hair there. Let me tell you, it’s been a great experience. I knew they had the talent with Christina cutting hair there, but after my first time going to SHC I understood. All the staff that work there are cool and welcoming and the shop itself is such a vibe! It’s a convenient location off South Congress and they’ve got all the amenities. I’m happy I found this place. Thanks y’all!“

“Fantastic haircut experience. Probably the best ever. Fahren contains a wealth of information about hair/beard care that I’ve never experienced before. Will be going back“

“Lucie is the absolute best! She's been cutting my hair for over a decade. She's so nice, she listens, always prompt, and is very talented. Can't recommend her enough!“

“The man was very informative on how to help me with a style and by also providing me some great information on how to deal with bumps on my head.“

“I like it when the cut my hair to look like a boy. Unfortunately, this is not as common in other shops....“

“I initially came to Little Barber due to its proximity to the UT Austin campus, but even after leaving the campus area, I still come back. Dan always gives me exactly what I want, and I have never left the shop anything less than extremely satisfied. Being a barber is an art form, and all of the barbers at Little Barber, especially Dan, are masters of their craft.“

“I’ve had a few haircuts from this shop, I’m sure all the barbers are good, but Cassy gave me the best haircut I’ve had in years.

If you’re thinking about trying this place, I highly suggest you book an appointment with her.

The place is really nice and you’ll be greeted offered a drink as a soon as you step in.“

“Every time I walk out of Sorek, I feel like a million bucks. The walk back to my car is always one with more bounce to my step. That is, if I don't end up with a beer in hand because I've found myself in the heart of East Austin's social scene. Sorek's location is unparalleled.

Upon entry, Jared's familiar face is at the front desk with a handshake out to greet you. He's wearing the clothes he sells because he loves them and believes in them. And in fact, he looks great, luxurious. Rest assured though, there is no sales pitch, just beautiful garments around you’re going to be curious about. For the last two summers, I’ve found myself in nothing but Sorek’s custom-fit shorts.

Politely accept or decline the beverage offer and grab a seat while you wait for your cut to begin. The barbers all run on time and each schedule more than enough for each client. If you're in Jason's chair, expect to make a fast friend and connect with someone that is going to remember your name and how you prefer your grooming.

My wife made an appointment for me with Sorek in 2021 when I decided it was time to let the rest of my fading flow go, and it was time to enter a new era of mid-skin fades and sharp lines. The guys made me feel comfortable with the uncomfortable, helped me laugh at myself a little by assuring me how common this is, and then got to work. When I went home, well, my wife still talks about how good I looked that day. Two years later, Sorek was where I turned for my wedding tux and to get my wedding party and myself looking our best. While I’m reviewing the barber work, the guys’ chairs are usually filled flowing hair that require expert eye and hand. Those gentlemen always leaving looking their best, with the same bounce in their step I feel.

I've had fades and beard trims by most of the guys there; they all have been world-class barbers, but the staff there today is the A-team. I'm sure to schedule my next appointment on the way out the door because demand is high. If you’re new to Austin and want to soak in some of the East-side weirdness, this is a great place to start.“

“Lori is by far the most talented and the most sweetest barber I've ever been to. She's not only an expert but she gave me some wonderful tips on maintaining my hair. Her products are life changing ❤️❤️“

“I’ve been getting my haircuts from Angelo a couple years now. Perfect cut every time and I always get compliments. Want a great cut, definitely go see Angelo.“

“I’ve gotten cuts from Tim, Kris and Lesly and I’ve always been very satisfied. They are very professional and polite. Highly recommend!!“

“I had to shop around until I found someone who did my hair to my liking. Thus is that place. Nicollette does such a good job, well, let’s put it this way: people didn’t start asking where I get my hair cut until after I started getting it cut by her. Very sharp!“

“My new spot no doubt
Was a little hard to find since it’s new and the sign isn’t up yet but I’m sure glad I did“

“Came into Austin to get away from the power outage in Houston. Called K&Qs to ask if my Papa could get in. They told me have him come now, no wait. Fast forward, I’m in the hotel waiting for my grandfather to return. In walks my Papa looking fresh and smiling. Raving about the great service and atmosphere. Great haircut and good wholesome feel for a Saturday in the shop. I was so happy to hear of the wonderful and pleasant experience. We now have a place for him to get cut if ever we are in Austin again. Thanks guys, got Papa looking like his GQ self. Love it “

“Matt was my barber for 3 years. Stopped going because I moved north. Impeccable quality and service. I recommend anyone in the downtown ATX area book an appointment with these guys.“

“Best haircut experience I have ever had. David is a damn good barber and an even better dude. Most definitely will be the only place I go from now on.“

“Hilary is truly the best. I am unfortunately moving away, or else I would be a lifer here. I have pretty thick, unruly hair and in the past I've mostly settled for meh haircuts because I couldn't seem to do any better. Not so with Hilary! She helps me turn what I want into a reality, and after seeing her a few times she already has the drill memorized and just checks in for any changes. I am so sad to be leaving her. FYI if you're a new client, her schedule can sometimes be very full, but it is SO worth the wait and once you're in you're golden.“

“Emmanuel (Manny aka Fresh) does the job right for me, but i’m pretty sure if you walk into the shop w/o an appt., anyone of their barbers can do you justice (i recommend making an appt. tho) the vibes give me that “Papi-Shampoo-East-Coast-Urban” Barbershop energy where everyone will make you feel welcomed and also have you “feeling yourself” when you walk out those doors. Def. will recommend to the my gents looking for quality. Salute!

Hair type: Used to having it short (8” all around) w/a low taper.. Now 11” natural curly all around w/a low taper (Blowout, almost)“

“This place is amazing they did exactly what i wanted!! I recommend 100% Nicole’s the best“

“I’ve been going to Agape for over 20 years. Reggie is top tier, easily one of the best barbers in the city. Found this place and stopped looking. Be sure to schedule an appointment. You won’t regret it.“

“I absolutely love Layer Salon! Tricia is absolutely amazing with blondes and especially helping to cover my grays in a very natural way. She’s amazing with my fine and rather thin hair too! My daughter sees Nick who is absolutely a rockstar and does amazing things with her long hair and is an expert at highlighting and long layered cuts! I absolutely love Michelle who helps with everything in the salon and Jean who runs it. Everyone there is so welcoming and extremely talented!“

“My favorite barber and shop! I always leave feeling great, with an amazing cut. Very professional and good conversation.“

“Fantastic cut. I was a new client with a difficult hair situation and he was able to manifest exactly what I had envisioned. He had great attention to detail, knew his terms, communicated with me on specifics or challenging areas, and he made absolutely sure I was okay with the amount he was cutting off any time it was questionable while also erring on the side of too long rather than too short. All of this at a very competitive rate! I'll be coming back for sure.“

“Vero will forever be my hair stylist, great person and even more talented love love love. Quick and the best color stylist I’ve met !!“

“I have been going to different barbers and shops for the past few years. My first time to Bearded Barber was a great experience. Eli cut my hair, and even with my poor guidance with direction, he did exactly what I wanted. I left the shop able to go back to work without the irritating cut hairs that linger until you're able to shower.

Needless to say, I will be back!“
