Philly Cuts

Best black-owned barbershop in Philly. Expect thought-provoking barbershop banter and a clean cut. You get exactly what you ask for. When you go ask for Black, that my barber. Overall, great service, there’s a public bathroom and wait times aren’t too bad, great experience.

Pleasant neighborhood place, lively. If you go, particularly on a weekend, make sure the person cutting your hair is an actual barber. In my case it was a guy who works at a restaurant ! who was just sort of sitting there when I came in. He spent most of the time talking to the barber at the next chair about the Eagles' prospects this year, was much less interested in my haircut. He still managed to charge me more than what's listed here. I'm trying to decide whether I need to get it recut. Beware. If I'd worked with an actual haircutter the score would have been much higher. Other than that the place is lovely.Service: Haircut

guy sitting in chair, wasnt sure if he was a barber or not tries to over charge me for only a line up. and said he didnt wanna waste his time. never again.

JB is the man!! Every cut is fresh clean and hey did I mention the conversation you get lol so if you don't mind spending a little more and getting a great cut ask for JB and tell him the car guy sent you

The salon on top is where I go. They have wonderful young women working there and I hope they stay.

I was very uncomfortable there because I’m am and I’m 13 and they were very rude to they’d kept calling a fairy but I loved my haircut

Went in when there were no customers, was told I needed to make an appointment, they still gave me a rushed haircut and it didn’t end up that great. I’m not sure they’re used to handling Hispanic hair. The shape up on the sides and back of the head were on point though.

The barber was polite,very patient with my grandsons shapeup. We also went upstairs to Chanae she did a excellent job twisting my grandsons hair. I'm going to go there to get my hair twisted.

I wish I could have given this place a better review, considering how much I liked the people and atmosphere but the quality of my haircut was so poor. I informed the barber that I had some product in my hair and he made me get a $5 shampoo/wash instead of just using a spray bottle and comb to straighten things out. Once that was done, I asked for a bald fade. The barber took over an hour which is usually a good sign and then gave me the mirror when he was finished. He didn't blend any of my sides in and his lines were sloppy. I asked him to fix it up on the sides and he took another half hour for that. I came home and had to fix my lineup myself. I was about to take a picture of it and post it here, but I just wanted to get rid of it. I also had to fix an entire patch of my hair that was missed on the side, as well as the areas above my ears. When it came time to pay, he said that they no longer accepted card and didn't offer any payment apps. They have PayPal signs up on their mirrors, but this seems to be a cash-only spot. Fair enough. I went next door to the ATM because I was $5 short go figure. Then, I came back and had to wait around for the barber to get change from next door. I hate giving bad reviews, especially when the people are great but this was a frustrating experience. Hopefully they figure it out.
