    This place had potential and some barbers are good I will say that. But when you hold your business to a standard you’d expect all barbers to be able to give a great haircut especially with the prices that they charge. I went in to get a haircut with a fade and my beard trimmed. Left there with a fade that looked like a bowl cut and a beard that was barely cleaned up. I called back after I got home and how horrible it was and their response was basically that I was lying and they wanted me to send them a picture of it. The fact that they asked for that by itself says alot about them and how they conduct their business. If you know a barber here that takes care of you that’s great. But would not recommend coming here for the first time and trusting them with your hair.

    Lewis is the most unprofessional, disrespectful, and disregarding barber I have ever been to in my life! DO NOT go here. This place is awful and charged obscene prices for mediocre at best cutting. Lewis cut all five inches of my hair without my permission. I told him to cut 1/2 inches my hair and give me a lineup and taper. I told him this multiple times and even showed him how much hair I wanted him to cut. As soon as he started cutting with the clippers I knew he had cut too much. I immediately stopped him and asked to look, I was traumatized. He had Cut so much off that there was entirely no way he could continue without cutting the rest of my hair that length. I have never had a worse barber experience in my life! If you love yourself don’t go here and do not trust LEWIS!!!!!

    I am dissatisfied with the customer service and my haircut. My hairline is a little bit of everywhere. I went to the front desk nobody accommodated me and I wasn’t happy with my haircut. I went to Keith about four times before this time and he did great on the last time this is how my line up looked very lopsided and seem like he was rushing. He was coughing a whole time. I WILL NEVER COME BACK EVER.

    I had a great visit to the D over the weekend. Decided to treat myself to what I heard was the best barbershop in town. I was not disappointed. This shop is so cool. The cafe was cool and people were actually there for coffee. I decided to get the works from Denise which was an excellent decision. Denise was very accommodating and listened to what I wanted even though I had no idea. She made terrific suggestions and took control of the appointment. She even gave me a straight razor save on my neck (I have a beard). To me this is the hardest place to shave and Denise did it flawlessly. Several applications of lather and warm towels, shave, followed by the critical cold towel after. Zero razor burn! The beard trim was perfect and the haircut was as close to a bald fade as I was willing to go. If I lived in the D Denise would be my go to straight razor shave gal. Well worth the visit!

    Manny was great with my 7 year old son. He wanted a custom design in his hair and Manny took his time and created a large old English D for my son. It turned out really well and my son was very happy with it! Everyone at the shop was welcoming and nice. McKenzie did a great job on my 6 year old son’s mullet, which was a disaster before she reshaped and styled it. We will definitely be regulars. From the first call to book the appointments, to the finished results, we are very happy with our services.

    I recently cut my hair short & this was my first time going to a barber to get it cleaned up. The cut itself is clean, but Lewis took about an inch off my hairline in the front and forced it into a straight line instead of following my natural hairline, leaving me looking extremely masculine. I’ve kept my hair wrapped up all weekend, because every time I look at myself directly, I break into tears. The shop is nice and clean, and Lewis was nice, but it’s clear he’s not comfortable cutting women’s hair & I wish he would’ve told me that before he started cutting

    (This was at the grosse pointe park location not Detroit) To preface this, I've tried to contact the manager on two separate occasions, to speak to them directly. They apparently do not have managers since they keep suggesting the owner will call me back. The full package took an hour and a half. By the time she told me she was done, I had to get out of there in a hurry to get my kid from school. The lineup on my temples was not even. The mustache sides were clearly off. The beard line was brought down an obnoxious amount (though I asked her to keep a more natural line). Under the chin was barely shaved and not lined up with trimmers. The whole service was 100% not worth it. It's certainly well decorated, but the actual cut and beard trim up was the worst I've ever had. Maybe if you just get a haircut, not anything else, they can manage that? I don't post reviews like ever, but had to on this occasion. If I can't let the owners know, so they can make effective changes, I have to let you all know so you don't waste your money.

    My 10 year old son loved his new hair cut. The staff was very patient and polite. Also, I enjoyed their cafe upstair. It was very quiet and clean. The pour over decaf coffee was good. The atmosphere and decor was very welcoming. Thanks you for your services. We will be returning in the future.

    Well, last time I post a misunderstanding situation about booking mistake. Appears it was a small mistake but the shop handled. Very well and solved the issue as fast as they could and I received a very perfect treatment. Thanks to Chad and (Destiny) my favorite barber there and Michigan for taking care of it and now I’m back here satisfied and happy. It will always be the best spot to get any kind of hair cut. I apologize and thanks guys for the fix.

    I have been going to this shop for almost 2 years and have loved the environment that they have created. I always go to Brees Frederick For my cut and he does an amazing job. He also provides a comfortable environment to have a chat when you want one or some peace and quiet. Overall a quality shop and I recommend stopping by to check it out.

    Great service. Great Barber! Thank you, Lakisha, for always being very meticulous with cutting my hair. I appreciate that very much. Not a factory! Just great personal attention to detail.

  • 5/5 Roderic W. 1 year ago on Google
    A fine conversation with skilled barbers (men and some women) that provide attentive service, and - wait for it - a coffee bar that does espresso, lattes, and iced drinks. Well, worth the money.

    I visited the Plymouth shop recently and Mandy was my barber. I have been a customer at the Plymouth location for several years and this was the first time Mandy cut my hair. She cut my hair the way I liked it plus suggested some great styling ideas that turned out great. I will definitely be getting my hair cut by Mandy again!

  • 5/5 Roland O. 9 months ago on Google
    Joe Walker is the best barber here. I've been visiting him for over a year and it's always a good time. We've had great conversations over that time I've been coming and he is not distracted from your haircut, as it always comes out top quality. Front desk people seem like they really don't care and could be more friendly, but oh well - their part of the job doesn't seem like a fun one.

    Visited Detroit Barber Co. for the first time - Plymouth location. My barber was Courtney, she did an amazing job on my pixie cut and got me feeling like myself again. Great experience with Courtney!

    Keith did an awesome job giving me the best buzz cut I've had in a while! I was pretty unclear with what I wanted and he took it in stride and produced a great cut, thank you Keith!

    I see Megan here the first or so of every month. She does a wonderful job and the work is always top notch. Everyone needs: A good doctor. A good lawyer. A good accountant: A good barber. Go here.

  • 5/5 Tia C. 1 year ago on Google
    My son had a great experience! Willy was fun, kind, and more than competent. From the perspective of a former stylist, this shop was well kept, clean, and as a mom I love that they had comfy seating and a coffee bar right inside! 10/10 will be back

    Kelly H does a fantastic on my hair! So much so that I have a standing every two weeks appointment!

  • 5/5 A New Raag M. 2 years ago on Google
    I am very particular about my hair and the cuts. Hair cuts are not just shaving your head with a machine( it’s weird i even have to say this!) When i first moved here from Toronto, i tried a number of places in Detroit/MetroD area(trust me, many!) and a series of extremely bad haircuts. I preferred driving to Toronto and getting my hair cut there(no joke did this as much as i could until Covid) having said that full credit to Brian who is not only a kind, thoughtful, and a great human but also understand what you want to do with your hair and works with you for a great and satisfying result. 1000% recommend Brian at Detroit Barber Co!

  • 5/5 Ian M. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been getting my haircut here for years. Destiny is a very talented barber who always takes the time to make sure everything looks perfect and doesn't cut any corners. I highly recommend her and this Barber shop.

  • 5/5 Dylan T. 1 year ago on Google
    First time going to DBC was just before my brother’s wedding. Destiny and the rest of the staff did an incredible job at making us feel at home and the cut was second to none… Destiny gave me suggestions for styling and how to trim my hair as we went through the cut. Great experience, will be back!

  • 5/5 Heavy M. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been to Detroit Barbers in Corktown four times now and utilized three different Barbers, all have done an awesome job! I’m not someone who can book 4 or 5 weeks out, I’m usually a two day in advance guy. The online booking system makes it fast and easy to find a barber within my time window and be confident I’ll get a great cut! The online confirmation and reminders are an added plus. Book it, you won’t be disappointed…

  • 5/5 Jim Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Dave does a great job at your GP shop. I was disappointed to learn during a recent visit that the price of a regular haircut has increased by almost 17%, and credit cards sales are subject to an additional service charge of 2.8%. Wow that is almost a 20% increase - seems excessive.

  • 2/5 La'Salle B. 2 years ago on Google
    Paid for a full haircut when a buzz cut would have sufficed. Good thing the barber informed my husband that he does not have to pay the full amount for his next visit.

  • 5/5 Airrick S. 2 years ago on Google
    The Barbers at Detroit Barber Co. Corktown are some of the best barbers in the area. The atmosphere is always open, respectful and welcoming. My favorite barbers are Destiny and John, their hands will have you looking like a million bucks when you walk out the door!!!!💈💈💈💈💈

  • 5/5 Lindsay P. 2 years ago on Google
    I usually see Jali but as she was unavailable, I had the pleasure of getting my hair cut my Kelly. She came prepared having read my notes I submitted when I booked my appointment and listened to what it was I wanted. Very kind and a great taste in music * Prince* it was an over all awesome experience and I love my hair. Between Kelly, Jali and everyone at Detroit Babers, if you credible an appointment here you’re going to come out looking great!! 👌🏼

😠 They put perm in their shampoo my hair is so ruined..... but they do such a nice job😭 this place is great if you don't mind having your hair relaxed. But since they don't disclose this and have ruined hundreds of peoples hair they get 1 star from me. That's extremely foul.
