The Local Barber & Shop

Artist at work!
By far one of the highest quality barbers in all of AZ. If you’re looking for someone true to their craft and that takes pride in styling you correctly as a representation of their art come here! If you’re going to walk in and ask for a 2 on the side and a 3 on top then please continue to go to your normal shop and enjoy the lollipop they give you for sitting through the entire hair cut. That may be harsh but it’s to emphasize how to truly appreciate the quality of care you’re getting here. Yes a proper barber cut will take time this is no 15 minute stop by any means. However, if you take the time to look away from your phone while Anthony or one of the other great barbers goes to work. You can see the attention to detail and the precision being used on YOU the customer. The price is very very reasonable and as more word gets out about how awesome this place is I can only imagine demand will outgrow the availability. Please come in see Anthony and see how good they can make you look. Very happy that I made the effort to come here!

Finally found my barber shop!
I sat in Anthony’s chair, I can’t stress how detail oriented this guy is. He gave me a cut and a shave, I was in his chair for well over an hour. It’s by far the best cut I’ve ever had, booked my next appointment right there on the spot.
Very clean, love the décor, very comfortable seating. And the staff?! I can’t say enough about the staff, All nice guys!

They do it right! You don’t feel rushed and its super relaxed. Anthony is a craftsman.

This place is AWESOME. The guys who work there are GREAT and very knowledgeable in the field of hair cutting and styling. When you walk in they greet you, offer you a drink and get to you as quickly as possible.
The atmosphere is a combination of «old school charm» with modern flair and touches. I had my hair cut recently by Anthony (the owner) who offered suggestions and gave a «plan» for an overall look. He carried on pleasant conversation all while working on the cut.
As for the cut… one of the BEST ever! To say these guys are meticulous is an understatement. When you go to most places for a cut they try to «rush» you out to keep up with demand. these guys take their time to do it right. Anthony cut with precision and care and I felt like he made sure every bit of hair fell into its place.
He also washed out my hair. The sink chairs were so comfortable, no worries about cramping your neck while they shampoo. The products smelled good and made my scalp feel great.
Once back in the chair a straight blade was used to clean up the edges, followed by a hot towel and some finishing spray that felt and smelled great. Followed by product and styling. There was no «pressure» to buy anything, just good service and cut.
Guys, if you haven’t checked this place out you NEED to. You will notice a difference in the haircut here and anywhere else you may have gone. The prices are good. I have found my new «regular» place to go.

What a cool barbershop and right in my neighborhood. The place looks like an old school shop but with an awesome vibe. The barbers are young a hip looking and super friendly. Had some good tunes playing in the background too. Anthony cut my hair as well and did a great job. He was very detailed and you can tell he took pride in his work. He made sure that I was looking good and even touched up my beard for me. Awesome place two thumbs up for this place. I will be going back for sure.

Phoenix has long suffered from a real high quality authentic Barber Shop for decades, until now. In the ever growing popular midtown area on 7^th street in a rehab strip mall, «The Local Barber» has brought what we have lacked: True Barber Skill, the perfect setting (and yes minus annoying TV screens). Anthony cut my hair today and I can honestly say, best cut ever. Great space, great vibe and fantastic haircut. Open late in the evenings too. Glad this opened.

I’ve been looking for a shop with a good old school flavor to it and I really love the Local. It just opened a couple of weeks ago and this may be my new go to. I had Anthony cut my hair and wanted a high and tight and he did a great job. He did the top with scissors at my request and you get a hot towel treatment at the end of your cut and he shaved the back with a straight razor which was really nice. The place has a nice ambiance and Anthony was very friendly and welcoming. You can also get beer or other drinks while you wait, which was an excellent onus. The cut was $ 25 total and he trimmed and shaped my beard at no additional charge, so I think I’ll be coming back here again soon. Thanks again!
