I visited this barbershop last Saturday for a normal haircut and ended up leaving worst off than I came. Aaron did a number on my hairline. God I hope it’s fixable. I wouldn’t judge this place off of that one experience but for god sakes don’t let Aaron cut your hair!

Terrible experience. I was supposed to get a scissor cut and a beard trim with "Isaiah." I get there, and "Isaiah" didn't seem to want to work, and they handed me off to someone else "Damon". Damon finished the job in 5 minutes. It was supposed to be a scissor cut, I think a scissor was used for less than 30 seconds. It was way shorter than I told him I wanted it (I even showed him pictures). Don't get me started on the beard. He did zero actual trimming, he just lined it up (and messed up the line on the bottom of my jaw), and basically used no "heads" on the machine, he just winged it. Ended up with a patchy looking beard that was long in some areas and short in others. Didn't even show me the back of the head when we were done. He just kind of took off the drape and we were done. Worst experience, do not go there.

One of the worst hair cuts I have ever gotten. Just completely lacking in skill. The barber cut into my skin multiple times and everything is very asymmetric. Really pissed off rtn. I don't know how you can be this bad at your job

Detroit Barber Co. keeps things simple: solid cuts, good people, and a clean vibe. I’ve been to both the Plymouth and Corktown shops, and they each do great work. You walk in looking rough, you walk out looking sharp. No nonsense. Corktown is my go-to, though. The place just has that Detroit grit and character. The music’s good, the crew’s professional, and the atmosphere feels like a spot where you can relax, talk a little, or just zone out while someone cleans you up right. Joe is the man. He pays attention to the details, takes his time, and delivers a cut that actually holds up. Lineup stays tight, beard looks clean, and you feel like yourself, just better. He’s consistent every single visit, and that’s what matters. If you want a solid haircut without the hype, Detroit Barber Co. is where you go. Especially Corktown. Especially Joe.

Pleople ask me "was your barber drunk?" after I got my haircut here. $50 for a haircut is pretty high. Coffee is extra and they did try to upsell me. My visit was my first and also my last.

Arrived at The barbershop at 1:57pm. My appointment was at 1:45pm. I tried calling multiple times but the line was busy. Aron was very rude the minute I walked in and said he couldn’t take me because he had a 1pm. Hel left and came back and continued to argue with me. I assured the young lady at the register that he’s been late several times and I still tipped him. He told her he can find another barber in front of three customers. This was the most underwhelming experience I’ve ever encountered and I wil not be returning.

Had a mocha & added some spice to it, very good. Nice atmosphere & chill spot. Didn't get a cut just a coffee. The barber shop looked very clean.

Yesterday, I took my three boys to get haircuts, and overall, it was a mixed experience. I booked two appointments for my younger boys—one for a kid cut and another for a regular cut for my older son, who requested a taper fade. As for myself, I asked for a lineup. Dana was knowledgeable and engaging during the cuts, which I appreciated. However, when it was time to pay, I encountered issues. I had requested a presidential beard trim, but I ended up being charged for a haircut and a PBT, totalling $80. I paid that amount but then inquired about the boys’ haircuts. Receptionist said, "Have a great day", and handed me a receipt, so I left. A few hours later, I received a call asking about the boys' haircut payment. I informed them that I couldn’t handle it until Monday. My fiancée took the phone, and the bill was eventually settled after some back-and-forth. It’s essential to emphasise that clear communication is crucial in customer service. We had asked whether barbers set their own prices or if they were predetermined, and we were initially told it was set pricing. Later, we learned that barbers do indeed set their own prices. This lack of consistency needs to be addressed to improve customer satisfaction.

Manny was great with my 7 year old son. He wanted a custom design in his hair and Manny took his time and created a large old English D for my son. It turned out really well and my son was very happy with it! Everyone at the shop was welcoming and nice. McKenzie did a great job on my 6 year old son’s mullet, which was a disaster before she reshaped and styled it. We will definitely be regulars. From the first call to book the appointments, to the finished results, we are very happy with our services.
