This is a family owned barbershop and the friendly environment and interactions here promote a downhome, relaxing feeling. It is a Spanish speaking family, but they also speak English and can translate if needed. As far as the haircuts; these folks are exceptional. They take the extra time to cut your hair the way you want. For men, they take a straightedge to clean up and it feels wonderful. They cut kids hair, men and women's. I guarantee you will love ur haircut. A haircut costs $35, but it is well worth it.

Suny is awesome and fire with the straight razor!! She's never made me bleed once (that I'm aware of)! Haha Their family is nice and the atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable. Highly recommend!!

I took my son here for a taper fade and I don’t think the barber actually went to school because I can’t even describe what he got it looks like he took a chainsaw to his hair!! And if you don’t speak Spanish “GOOD LUCK “ they act like they don’t understand what you’re saying but they sure know how to charge!! 60$ for the crappiest haircut ever!!! 100% stay away from Rubens Hackshop!!!

$25 today. Although it’s not the insanely low price as when I first came in 2018, Ruben’s is my go-to barbershop. I’m a south asian dude with thick wavy hair. I get a fade here, and it’s always better than what anyone else gives me. They do the neck and ears with a straight razor and put on some aftershave after every cut. There are other barber shops that charge less than Ruben’s, but the consistency of great haircuts I’ve gotten here is beyond anything else I’ve had elsewhere for a similar price. The experienced barbers teach the younger ones, and it feels like you’re watching masters at work here. Cash only. Plan ahead to avoid their ATM’s fee. Some of the barbers speak mainly Spanish. You’ll get exactly the cut you want, but depending on who does it and what language you speak, you might miss out on some good conversation. The wait on weekends can get up to an hour or more. They don’t take appointments, so sign in on the clipboard in the back left corner and hang out. If you really want quick excellent service, go early on a weekday. One time I showed up right at 8 and no one was there, but they were open and ready to go by 8:30 or 9. Ira Sr. was really friendly and took the time to make sure he knew exactly what I wanted. He cleaned up my beard on the house under the condition that I come back. He also enthusiastically conversed with me in Spanish to help me improve my speaking. Great barbers here, and great people in general. Flaco is one of the best barbers I’ve ever met. The younger guys usually have some good music playing.

Barbershop for the entire family. Doesn't matter what haircut you get always is $20! My son got his cut with Kevin! He was attentive and did exactly what my son ask for.

Would recommend and will be returning here. We got Ruben and he is amazing! Cut my boy real fresh. Tuesday at 12pm was not busy and got serviced right away. Not crowded and a reasonable price.

First off, you do not need to speak Spanish, nor be Latino to visit this barbershop! In fact, they speak English and are always overjoyed to help with my Spanish...that's half the fun! Most importantly, they give fantastic haircuts for a great price. The fades are superb and they always finish with a straight razor. I've had half a dozen different barbers and everyone has been terrific. Ruben himself is always a joy to speak with and creates a fun and welcoming environment. I've been to a bunch of different shops around town but now this is my go to. Highly recommended!

J.R. did a great job cutting my hair (fine curly fro-ish). I was a little nervous at first because I wasn't sure if they had experience cutting hair like mine, but he made sure I was comfortable with what he was doing and they showed me nothing but respect in the shop. They are a great business and whenever I'm in KC again, I will stop in for a cut. If you're hesitant because you look around and don't see people who have your type of hair, DON'T BE. Just ask for J.R.

Great barber shop overall. Yes, sometimes there's a big wait, but it's because everyone in the neighborhood knows it's the place to go. I'd recommend going on a weekday, but the cut is worth it no matter when you go.
