Hyde Park Barber Studio

This is the only place I’ll go. It took me 2 years to find a barbershop that felt «right» after moving here from NYC. I traveled 40 minutes to go to Hyde Park Barber Studio based on a recommendation from a friend. Worth every minute. The service is attentive. The barbers are friendly. The décor is very nice and the cut was spectacular! I now live 90 minutes away and would rather go without a haircut than have anyone other than Daryl cut my hair! Love you cats! See you soon!

Walked in for a quick bit of neckline cleanup and was taken care of promptly and professionally. My barber — M. Abdul-​Milik — was efficient and friendly, and the place felt clean and accommodating. The fade was excellent and the price was right, plus they accept credit cards! Will be back.

Terrible! They cut my hair evenly everywhere. I’ve never had a haircut this bad. I’ve also never been to a barber before, but im never going back.

This Shop is in SSChicago on 51^st ½mi from the SSDrive. Its black owned, Muslims shop, in a friend of mine hood. So I wanted to leave downtown Chicago where I live and get a haircut in the hood and support black owned business.
However, like the other black spot I found on Orleans & Oak Street, its a rip off, I paid $ 27usd for a hair cut and I did not come out looking like Shamar Moore! We I probably look better then Shamar anyway.
CONCLUSION: I AM NEVER GOING BACK; I WILL NOT EVER MENTION THIS PLACE TO ANYONE NEEDING A HAIRCUT; AND IT DESERVE «ZERO» STARS FOR BEING A RIPOFF AND CONSHOP.
YOU GUYS MAKE MUSLIMS BUSINESS LOOK HORRIBLE!
I Will Stay a Christian, Thank You Jesus and Praise GOD!
IDIOTS!

Mr. Leaks gave me a great haircut. I took a few pictures the day he cut my hair and I can’t stop getting attention from it! atmosphere was great and Mr. Leaks is a down to earth cool guy that makes you forget you are getting a haircut while he is at his craft that he has mastered!

Classic barbershop– very professional, nice décor and great atmosphere– the barbers joked, chatted and made you feel at home. ESPN on the two television screen– a great place to go for a man like me who is tired of all of the girly salons.
ALSO– UofC students and faculty get a significant discount! Takes it from like $ 20 to $ 16. Great deal, great service and a good-​looking haircut!

This HP gem is professional, welcoming and attentive to their clients. The barbers are long standing top notch pros, any of them could do live «stand-​up» comedy to keep things lively. I’ve tried other shops and know this is the place to go.

Very Professional Barbers Excellent services!!!

There are a lot of different places where I could get my haircut in hyde park. I could do it in Reynold’s Club, or 57^th street salon, or University Barbershop, and the list goes on. There are 2 reasons I go with Hyde Park Barber studio.
1) its the closest barber shop next to my apartment. Location is key, and I’m lazy
2) unlike other places I’ve been in hyde park, there are always 4 or 5 guys there to cut your hair, so your wait is never very long.
This is a barbershop, so their main focus is on the men, but every now and then I see a female stylist in there doing a lady’s hair, so they also cater to the females. What I love most about this place is that its classy: from the cool mirrors, to the hanging afro-​inspired artwork, to the multiple flat-​screen tv’s playing ESPN, Hyde Park Barber Studio is head and shoulders (pun intended) above the rest in Hyde Park.
My only issue with this place (and every other place in Chicago) is how expensive it is to get your haircut! Its not difficult to buzz-​cut my hair, and I’m used to paying 5 dollars for that back home (if possible I wait for when I go back to Tx to get it cut), but if I’m going to be paying $ 19 for a 5 minute buzz around my hair, then Hyde Park Barber Studio is where I want to be paying it at.

Whenever I am in the HP, this is where I stop to get a cut. My HP barber Naseem does a great job on my head and I never leave out disappointed.
I have been going off and on for two years and there has never been a dull moment. Last night I walked in and they were showing the Blogojevich impeachment coverage and it sparked great conversation as well as debates. Usually when I walk in there is a big debate or discussion in progress.
This is one of those shops where they know everyone’s name and are always welcoming to newcomers. If you are ever in the area or just happened to move to HP, this is a great place to go. Also, this is the first barber shop that I have seen accept debit/​credit cards.
