I cannot express how relieving it is to have a barber who *I know* is going to knock it out of the park every time I sit in his chair. From day one, Max has been attentive, friendly, and ensured I was a satisfied when I left. The vibes of the barbershop are great; solid drinks, sociable staff & good music too. I've never had an issue with parking - though I'd recommend an early afternoon/lunchtime slot to secure it. As long as Max is at Prohibition Barber Co, I will be a customer!
I recently moved and was in need of a high quality fade barber in a pinch, boy did Prohibition Barber Co knock it out of the park. Olivia is great, I was super impressed with the cut and quality of the fade and hair cut in general. She was only booked up a week or so in advance, my guess is that it won't be that way for a whole lot longer. Highly recommended!
I waited a few weeks to leave this review to see how my hair grew out. 10/10. Olivia is wonderful. I’ve been looking for a stylist for 5+ years, having looked in every neighborhood, and she is the best! Book with her and love your hair!
Was recommended to try this place out by a good friend….and let me tell you, Josh and his crew have an amazing thing going! From the aesthetic to the professionalism and showmanship , hospitality and over all vibe; this place is the real deal. And that’s not even mentioning the best part- the cut!! Couldn’t have been more impressed and thrilled with what Josh did, truly a master barber and worth every penny. If you are looking for a place to make a new barbershop family- this is it.
Great atmosphere, and every barber here is talented. Max is who I come to religiously for my cuts, he is extremely talented (amazing fade cuts) but also easy to consult with on every session and is able to accommodate what you are looking for in a haircut with ease and finesse! Highly recommend.
First time going here after going to another barber for 10 years. Safe to say, I’ve found my new barber. Adrian is top notch and exceeded all expectations. Every detail I asked him to do, he executed it perfectly.
Bruce did an incredible job with my hair, I'm super happy with how it's been looking and can't wait to sit in his chair again. I've been looking for a longterm barber and am so happy to have found a solid stylist and conversationalist in Bruce. Thank you!!!
I've been coming to Prohibition Barber Co, for more than 2 years now. Vince is my barber and he is top notch. Never had a bad haircut with him. Which, I actually followed him from another shop! The experience in there feels a lot like visiting your favorite family member's home. It's warm, it's welcoming, and the spirit of the shop is always positive. This is a testament to Josh, owner of PBCo, and his standards for how his business operates for its customers. Lastly, PBCo is the first shop where I would feel comfortable letting any barber cut my hair. The talent there is impeccable and I definitely recommend them for your next haircut!
