3 Boy’s Barber Shop

I’ve been here a few times. You get a good clean shape up for a reasonable price. Even lined me up with the straight razor at the end for no additional charge.

Okay, I have to say, this is not place you are going to get the best haircut. I would say that the skills of the barbers are average. Your lineup is not going to be perfect or pretty good. Your lines may not be equal on each side. If you’re looking to get a simple hair cut, this would be the place for you. However, if you are very picky about your haircut and you want things precise, this would be the wrong place to go.

These guys are great. I went in today and I received the best skin fade I have ever gotten. It is $ 20 though which is pretty high. These reviews that are posted for this company are unfair. I was actually referred to this place from my cousin. He had an amazing cut so I thought I would try it out. You won’t be disappointed.

Edit: To be fair, I’ve been told there are three guys that work here. Don’t get your hair cut by the guy closest to the door.

One of the worst haircuts I have ever received. No matter how much direction you give, they do what they want. Not to mention the fact that he was pushing the clippers hard into my head and the scissors felt like they hadn’t been sharp in years.
The price was also high at $ 20 considering you can get a much better haircut elsewhere for less. My rating has nothing to do with price though, just their incompetence when it comes to cutting hair. After all, I agreed to a haircut knowing they charge $ 20.
I’m not sure you can actually call this a barber shop. Sure they cut your hair but no other touches you normal get at a barber shop like shaving the back of the neck with a straight edge razor. Never going back to this place.

They are ok. You won’t walk out with the kind of cut you requested. They tend to cut however they want to, regardless of what you tell them or show them a picture of. Also, they barely speak to you while cutting if you are not Hispanic/​Latino etc. if you aren’t worried about risk they r ok, but if you have an event or a big reason to have a nice cut, I’d suggest going somewhere else.

Great barber shop. You get exactly what you ask for without a bunch of corporate sales ads and endorsements. Plus they are true barbers… straight razor is the best.

I’m kind of shocked by how low other reviews for this barber shop are, especially considering why. From what I gathered, it was namely the price ($ 20), the fact that many of the barbers are Hispanic, and someone thought they looked shady… no one even mentioned the quality of the services provided here.
I tend to shift around to different barber shops but I first got a haircut here in 2007. I haven’t been back much until recently (probably because I hate trying to exit the plaza where it’s located due to the terrible traffic pattern), but things there seem about the same as they always were. They give quality haircuts, and the place is usually packed. There are about 6 or 8 chairs in there and there’s usually just as many people waiting to get their hair cut. I usually get get skin fades here. The barbers always put a good amount of time into them and they always come out really well.
As for the complaints, we’re in Northern Virginia and the cheapest haircut I’ve found around here is $ 14 and most are at least $ 16, so $ 20 isn’t terrible for a place that consistently delivers quality cuts… the barbers here really seem passionate about what they do. Some customers are wiling to wait quite a while for their favorite barber, but I always just go to the first chair available and I’ve never had a problem. As for the complaints about the barbers, I’m white and I only speak English, but I never have any issues communicating with anyone here. As far as them being shady, aside from someone writing that out of racism, I cannot think of any other reason why they would. They’ve always provided me with quality haircuts for the prices posted on the wall; there’s nothing shady about that!
Ignore the reviews from racist cheapskates and give this place a shot if you want a great haircut for a fair price!

20.00 for a haircut is too high! It’s a barber shop not a salon.

Yes this barber shop is expensive ($ 20 a cut), yes this shopping center is a hassle to get in and out of, yes some of the barbers aren’t bilingual — but they all can cut. I’ve been going here for a couple years now. I stopped going here to try out some other barbers since leaving my regular barber shop (due to distance) and I’ve only been let down once (my shape up was a tad bit suspect).
I do like the fact that they are reliable. I don’t if how your barber shop operates, but the ones I’ve seen barbers disappear, are late, or have erratic schedules. 3 Boy’s have regular store hours and their barbers are always there. You can walk in or make an appointment. So I’ve never waited long to get a cut. To top it all they still use straight razors to finish your cut. After getting jacked way too many times trying to find a barber I made my back here and don’t mind paying the $ 5 extra scratch
