Reviews of Algie Hailey's Barber Shop (Barber Shop)

William Stein III

I go here all the time but very crowded this time. Great haircuts at reasonable prices. These barbers have been doing this for ages.

Johnny Bourgeois

This place has a great vibe to it. Great time taking my son to the same place I had before school haircuts.

Don NOLA

Eddie gives a good haircut. Good old school barbers, with straight razors, clippers and scissors.

Brandon M

Love this place. The old guys are always telling stories, some of them very colorful, but they certainly can give a great haircut. Even when packed I have never had that long of a wait. Worst part about the place is the parking, but lining up on the side of the train tracks fixes that.

Besides the risk of catching a blood born disease from the illegal razors they use to shave you, ( The only acceptable I use of a straight razor is the ones that the blade can be changed out each use per Louisiana code ) I’m far from the PC police but the confederate flag picture on the wall and that I was told they don’t cut hair like mine bc I had dread locs told me you have to have a touch of racism to feel comfortable getting your hair cut here.

Been going there for years, besides the barbers being very friendly, and conversational, they give good professional haircuts. I just had a haircut from Ashley. She is new but very good. The cuts are usually $16. Depending on business, one may have to wait up to 45 minutes. They have a ticket system because they are that popular. One will find it well worth the wait.

Great place for vintage haircut.

Moira Austin

Took my grand son okay hair cut

W White

Great place for a trim and a straight shave.

Greg Fernandez

I love this local classic! They remind me of my kind childhood barber, Mr. Fritz, from St. Bernard Parish. Nothing like the hot shaving cream, straight razor, and skillful trim of the hairline. Love the barber chairs. The relatively new HDTVs add a nice element of contemporary to the traditional. I gladly tip them to $20 every time. These folks deserve the patronage to keep them thriving for yet another generation.

Everybody knows Algie Hailey's is where you take your kids to get their first haircut and the same guys have been going for decades. It's hard to find a place where a flat-top is still an art...as is an old-fashion shave with a straight-razor. Mr. Eddie is our guy, but sometimes we switch styles, every Barber has his unique style. And you just never know who's gonna walk in!

Bill Walther

Best barbershop.

A historic barbershop. It is not the movie "Barbershop" but still is a great place to get a mens haircut. The wait is long though.

Wonderful old school barber, dying breed. Said they've been here since 1959. I've found my new barber since my old one (no pun intended) retired in December.

Scott Myers

If you enjoy hearing some racist old white guys complain about "n*ggers", while you sit there in the chair and try to resist the urge to pop one of them right in the jaw, this is the place for you. It's 2014, and I personally don't have time for that nonsense. I hate the fact that they assumed that it was fine to talk like that in front of me I'm a) white, b) male. When I told them I didn't appreciate the language, and that I wouldn't be back, one of the barbers proudly told me that they didn't allow blacks in the business. Embarrassingly pathetic behavior from grown men that should know better.

Pick your and let them get you right.

Ric Rodriguez

Traditional barbershop

Roy Sellers III

Ron is the best. Great barbershop

Robert Gibson

Maybe a little tired looking, but a serious, old-school barber shop. In business since FOREVER. Cuts are $16. See Alan H. or Ronnie B. You won't be disappointed.

Will W

Great old time barber shop. Probably 300 years experience in the six barbers there. Can get a true straight razor shave. Prices have gone up but still relatively cheap.

Reynold Minoli

I thought the old-time barbershops was gone forever until I was recommended many times about Algie Hailey's barbershop.

John Durbin

Old-School Barber Shop

Stephen Ledet

I used to be a SuperCuts regular until I found this place. Consistent quality haircuts in a traditional barbershop environment.

Michael Bordes

Only place to go! Been multiple places that have butchered my hair, but these guys do it right. I have found no place better. Mr. Allen gives the best straight razor shave (flawless execution). If you do not like this place then you clearly are not from here and your manhood should be questioned.

Pretty good, no-nonsense barber shop.

John Nerva

Classic Barber Shop. Great service. Great haircut. I'm relatively new to the area and tried a few other barber shops that specialize in "high and tight" haircuts, serve alcohol and come with a little too much hipster for my liking. If you're turned off by barbers who give you a card and ask you to follow them on Instagram, then this is your place.

I have been coming here for about 25 years, found it right after I got married. I've been other places when the need arises (out of area, stuck on the other side of town) but I always come back here as my first choice. Great barbers, great atmosphere, friendly patrons. This is the kind of barber ship I grew up going to. I am a patron for life. If you want to experience what it was to get a haircut and some conversation give this place a try.

Noisy Pineapple

Great hair cut for the price! 16$ Amazing friendly staff.

Benjamin Cummings

I had a great experience here. It's got a very old school barber shop feel. Hands down the best haircut I have ever received,

Gregory Woodall

Hands down best barber shop in the city

Jonathan B

great service..Veteran Barber's and a hot towel finish.. the Cheapest price I've found around NOLA compared to locations in and around Warehouse district and French Quarter, it's worth the drive!

Owen Durant

Outstanding barber shop

Chris Souquet

Racists, and not afraid to let you know. I listened with disgust as my barber wished for the good old days of segregation, when young black men knew their place. A time when they respected the police, because the cops would bring them in and take them "down" by throwing them down a stairwell. So, if you support racial segregation and police brutality, this is the place for you.

Aaron Hebert

Excellent barbershop.

matthew tastet

Fast, friendly, and cheap.

Greg Finch

Oldest barber shop in New Orleans area. It's fun to ask them about it. These guys are the old pros. Most chairs have their clippers hooked up to a shop vac, so you don't get much hair in you.

John Corlis

Good people, very nice, usually fast.

Melvin Legaux

The best beard trim I ever got!
