Just got haircut and let me tell you. Angel cut hair(a student) did wonderful job. The instructor inspected and asked if I was satisfied which i was. She asked me to let her students to look and find if it could be better. 10 minutes of adjustment and wow fantastic results. I'll definitely be a regular. Thanks for the details of barbering and not just cutting hair

I visited this school for a touch up/trim on my pixie cut. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted and directed by the students. One of the instructors met me with the student (Seven) that was assigned to cut my hair. Together, they evaluated the condition of my hair vs the style I wanted. Seven excused herself to prepare her work station for me. Once I was in the chair, she took her time and cut my hair exactly how I wanted it!! Even as she was cutting, several other students and instructors commended her work. Throughout my time there, I watched students not only learn their craft, but learn customer service skills that some established businesses don't even have!! The environment is sooooo positive!!! There were no attitudes and the students really showed support for one another. The instructors were always close by without being overbearing or critical, which is highly impressive!! I also learned that that upcoming weekend, they were hosting a free community event which is impressive as well!!! 10/10!!! You MUST visit Kindred Barber and Beauty Academy!!!!

I truly enjoyed my experience at Kinder Barber and Beauty Academy. The environment was very clean and well-organized, and the students provided excellent customer service. Ms. Reece is passionate about her craft and deeply committed to her students. During my haircut, the student encountered a few challenges, but I remained patient and understanding. Ms. Reece stepped in with guidance, showing the student how to correct things properly and professionally. It was a great learning experience to witness and be part of.

I live near by and loved that you can drop in and get a cut fast. The guys are learning so the cut is far from perfect but still great. Dre was great and the vibe was chill and inviting in the shop. For sure will be coming back.

The consistently high-quality services at Kindred Barber and Beauty Academy, evident since I became a patron in September 2024, are a testament to their exceptional training. My previous services by Jesus (haircut/facial), Flight (two-strand twists), Charlie (haircut/shampoo and condition), and Mrs. Pat (braiding) were outstanding. I'm continually impressed by the students' skill, professionalism, and dedication. As an Air Force leader and veteran, I recognize the hallmarks of effective leadership, which are clearly present here. Beyond the excellent grooming, the owners' genuine appreciation for veterans creates a welcoming and respectful atmosphere. This is more than just a grooming establishment; it's a place where skill and respect seamlessly converge. Thank you for your commitment to the next generation, Mrs. Pat and Mrs. Lois!

This was my first time at the facility, but it won't be my last. I called the facility a day before I walked-in, and the owner was so helpful. She was also patient, informative, and kind. As soon as I walked into the school, I was greeted by several of the students. I received service immediately, and I got a nice haircut. Then I was offered a complimentary facial! It was very relaxing, and my skin feels so smooth. I appreciate their hospitality and great service, and I know others will too.

One of the best barber schools ever! If someone told me I was going to be a licensed master barber before I was 20 years old I would’ve never believed it. If anyone is interested in barbering please look into Kindred Barber & Beauty Academy. Truly one of the best schools in the state of Georgia. I had some of the best instructors ever, and made some unforgettable friendships here. I appreciate every single instructor, and most of all Mrs. Reece and Mrs.Pat for getting me through this. Not only are they the best instructors, but they are family. I couldn’t thank God enough for putting you guys in my path. Beyond thankful for where I am today & can’t wait to see where I’m going in the future. 100% recommend the school to anyone who wants to pursue this career. 💈

I went there for a haircut, I was greeted by a student who was very professional. The instructor Lois was very warm and made me feel like family. Ma Pat was very knowledgeable and friendly as well. The students were friendly and lighthearted, they all seem to enjoy each other. They all watched as each other perform duties giving each other encouragement. The instructors encouraged their students. It was great experience and I will be back for more services next week. Thanks again to the awesome teachers and students.

The best barber school in Georgia. Especially in cobb county. The owner lois runs a professional establishment. I could not believe that the barber that cut my son hair for ROTC was a student. Im very satisfied and will be back. They do accept walkins day and night.
