BLACK GLOVE BARBER

"By far one of the best barbers I have met. Full customer service and accommodation. Cleanest lines I have seen in a long time. Defiantly a GOAT."

"The guy was half asleep during the cut, kept nodding off, and at one point fell asleep entirely and ran a strand about 6" way too short and then cut my neck with the clippers. Was then told that the price would be double what it said online, and that even with me holding my student ID in hand, that they didn't honor the online student pricing, even looking at the picture they themselves posted online. He almost seemed confused and disoriented by it. Then mumbled something about calling the officer sitting nearby if I didnt pay. He might have been asleep but I'm the one now living with a nightmare of a haircut. Place is trash."

"I am in town for a conference and need a haircut. I was referred to this place from a different hair salon that in turn was recommended by the concierge of my hotel. I call asking for a next-day appointment and he asks me when. I say what's the earliest you can do. 9:30. OK. The business card doesn't have a location so I ask for location. I can't hear due to background noise so I say I'll text you and you can reply back with the location. I never get any reply. I send a reminder the next morning at 7:45am. I get a response at 9:15 with the address. By that time, I have given up and I'm doing something else. I reply that I'll be there by 10. I arrive right on time at 9:58. I spend 45 minutes in the waiting room while one barber who was present keeps telling me that my barber is 5 minutes away, will arrive soon, etc.. At 10:45 (after a 10-minute ultimatum) I cut my losses and leave without a haircut. The impression is not that of a professional operation. If you have a way to get a regular haircut from these guys without wasting time, go for it. Maybe they are even good, I don't know. But if you are a tourist or especially if you are here for business, probably not a good idea. All it would have taken to avoid this review would have been a bit more and better communication. I don't like it when people gamble with my time."

"I was in town vacationing and didn’t have time to get a cut back home. Checked out the website and they seemed good and had reasonable prices so I stopped in. The guy that cut my hair was excessive with the razor to the point it left a mark on my face. I’ve never had someone go over the same spot so many times. The fade was ok at best. And the website said $30 but he charged $50. I got the feeling it was because he knew I was a tourist. I had been flying since 5am so I didn’t make a big deal about it but I highly don’t I’d return. (I probably wouldn’t have bothered leaving a review even though I was unhappy with the cut but to be shady with the price was a grimy move.)"

"Just wanted to give props and much respect to the barbers at this shop. My fiancé and I had just got to NOLA with a group of family and friends and i was looking for a place to get a shave. I was able to walk in and get it within 5 mins. The guys were professional and very nice. I recommend them to anyone who needs a first class ✂️ and I'll definitely visit them again when I'm in the area."
