Reviews of Abu Shanab Barber Shop (Barber Shop)

Energy Stop

This is my favorite barbershop in town, I go take my hair cut in this place with my barber AK, I recommend AK for anyone wants a nice stylish haircut, and beard. They have that friendly customer service that makes you feel you are part of their business not just a customer but a family.

AJ Aride

Elegant with the cuts, and smooth with the blade. AK is a boss at cutting hair.

Cookie Münster

Inaccurate hours on google page, should update that.

Let me tell you this. One of the best barber places on there. They took their time with me and went beyond what I asked. One thing you should know before going here is whenever they say please wait 10 more minutes. Trust me it not 10 minutes. Most likely 40 or more. One dude asked me to wait 2 minutes but went to buy food and took maybe 15-20 minutes. Good thing I had time on my hand that day. Wish they had appointments though. Should be nice. But, man that haircut was fanominal. One thing they do kinda cut you hair rough, or at least the guy who did my hair. And he did cut my in three different places with a blade, but idk the hair was sick.

best barbershop in Minnesota

I moved here in Jan/16 and could not find a Barber like I had back home in Tulsa, OK. AK might be even more talented than my previous Barber. He is intense with his attention to detail and wants you to leave happy. He leaves you feeling Fresh and Clean for sure. I'd recommend him to anyone looking to get tighter up without spending a ridiculous amount of money!!!!

Very nice

Un known

Very disrespectful and racist towards people of his own too. one hour wait and then fought me because I told him he took forever to smoke and wasted my time.

Mahmoud Wadi

I have been cutting my hair here since I was a kid amazing people and amazing cuts.

I have been coming here for years but the last 2 times I went the barber was falling asleep in and out and I came home and 8 cuts on my face very mad that the service is going down here and was told 45 min 3 hrs later I sat down 4 hrs to get a haircut and beard

Kamran Hayat

Had to catch a flight in three hours. They had two customers in chairs and one sitting. They told me 20 minutes and 45 minutes later they're still working on the same 2 guys. This isn't the 1st time that this has happened but this is damn sure the last time I'm going there.

I hesitate to review this place because the more people who know about it, the longer I'll have to wait when I drop in for a haircut and beard trim. But they do awesome work, are friendly and welcoming, and deserve a five-star review. So here goes: Alex, the owner, is a great guy and a skilled barber, and his employees are just as good as he is. So come on in. Take a seat (it's first come, first served), and whoever you're assigned to will be excellent. In addition to haircuts, I highly recommend getting a beard trim or a shave here. It would be unfortunate not to take advantage of their skill in this area. They'll soften you up with lather and hot towels, and then go to work with a straight edge razor (using a fresh blade for each customer). The attention to detail, the meticulousness, the professionalism...it's all you could ask for. A lot of Middle Eastern guys have thick beards and are very particular about their grooming, and Abu Shanab caters to them -- and everyone else -- with top-tier barbering. Abu Shanab is a treasure; easily the best barbershop in the Twin Cities. A haircut and a beard trim or shave will run you about $30 total: an amazing bargain.

This dude trash. My hairline is a circle

Been bringing my sons here since 2014. It’s always a great vibe and the barbers are on point. They always make us feel like their family. They always remember my kids names and what styles they like. It’s an upbeat and happy atmosphere no matter what kind of music they are playing. They are the best in the barber industry!! Highly highly highly recommended!!! Bring your son, husband, boyfriend, uncles, grandpas, dads, whatever but I guarantee they will become regulars.

Austin Velishek

Best haircut I've ever had! They were very professional and took their time with my hair. I didn't have to wait around and the price is the same as most other places, so you can't really complain

Jan Jan

Very rude people

Mohammad Ali

I will never ever come back to here and I don’t recommend you going. After instructed to seat, the barber went to smoke and eat for more than 40 minutes while leaving me waiting for him. After that, the other barber asked me if I want to switch, I did, and I wish I did not. As seen below I was bleeding from more than 10 spots. I totally encourage the owner to teach his employees manors first and then teach them how to shave.

If you want to see your barber falling asleep while getting you a hair cut, then please visit this place. If you want to wait for unlimited times please visit this place as well. If you want to be insulted, again, this is a place for you.

Oliver Smith

Nice staff, but wasn't happy with the cut. Because of this I wouldn't go back, but I wouldn't tell others not to go there because everyone's experience is different.

Mahesh Gaming

Great place gives the best cuts! Me with my cut! The best

Noman Khan

Unskilled barber. If you want cuts all over your face then please go ahead and book a slot. If you want to see your barber falling asleep while getting you a hair cut, then please visit this place. If you want to wait for unlimited times please visit this place as well. If you want to be insulted, again, this is a place for you. Total waste of time and money and risk of bleeding. ******zero rating *******

omar kalam

Best barbershop in town!!!

Rod Alsioury

Excellent job guys. ...we will be back again and l will recommend it to everyone. ..

John Mine

Been coming here for years and always have the best customer service. The barbers are skilled at what they do and will do exactly what you tell them to do and love giving advice. They also did very nice remodeling to the store looking more like a friendly place to be at while waiting for a haircut. Always have a great experience here.

Zak ;l;l;

I liked the atmosphere and how polite and kind the people were with me. What could not resist writing a review for was the haircut I had and the unskilled person who gave me the haircut. I have never had such an experience when the barber seemed like a butcher who can make suffer just by the way he handles the sizers let alone the trimmer and shaving blade. One may get a tiny cut if he shaved his face with a blade but to get a haircut and get to cuts is a new record.

Imer Mehmedovic

They have been cutting my hair for years and irs a great place for a hair cut!

The best

Patrick Warthen

Just found my new barber. This is a 5-star full service barber, complete with straight razor edging and beard grooming. I will be going back.

Andrey Dorosh

Waited for 20min while employee moped the floor.. Come to work early and clean up the shop before you open. Also loud music that is foreign, not sure why they have good reviews.

Adam M.

Don't go here unless you are Arab. They will let Arab people cut the line. Go elsewhere...

Marcus vang

Unskilled barber. Cut me twice while lining up

Absaar Hadi

Great haircuts always!

yuriy radysyuk

If you're looking for a new barber, get one here, I guarantee you'll make this your permanent go-to barber. Your haircut will take at least 20 minutes, because they are very meticulous. They make sure you're happy. The guys here know what they are doing!

Dooney Darko

AK be giving them fire haircuts

Justin Thomas

Great service. Gave me a great hair cut and cleaned me up nice. Good character from the staff as well.

Robbie Bisnauth

We've been going here for years and always the best. AK always gives us the best haircut!

Darren Nelson

The Best around. Fast and flawless

Serkan Gunpinar

I had face shaving today at around 11am on May 10, 2018 with blood everywhere. Underneath my nose, my face and on front neck. When I sat down on my car, I realized the barber sent me in this condition with blood everywhere. I don’t think this place is bad but this specific barber is careless and carefulness. He was as if he wanted to be done with me as soon as possible thus using the razor not neatly. And this is the location I refer to 4111 Central Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN 55421

Muamer Pezerovic

Ekrem did a great job ...

Ahmed Jamal

Good place

Justin Carbone

Long wait (80 minutes) but they spend at least a half-hour on each person. Awesome quality! Best haircut ever. If you don't speak Arabic you won't know what they're saying about you while they're cutting your hair! I have mixed feelings about the experience.

Amit Maheshwari

They are a good place but the waiting is always crazy. They don’t take appointments and make you wait for hours. Whatever time to wait they say, at least double it. My suggestion is to go only if you have at least 2 hours at hand, definitely not recommended for quick haircut. I wish they could get more organized, take appointments and respect the time of their customers.

Mustafa Fatal

Great prices and customer service love this place

Ginger Zenith

Dirty slobs. Pick up your trash and take your racist, sexist business elsewhere.

Chad Berseth

AK is great, but the waits are painfully long

Hussein Alabboodi

Best barber shop in town!!

Johnny Anderson

Just went here and got my beard trimmed. I have to say that this place is absolutely awesome. The barber Alex did phenomenal work. Asked me how I wanted it to look and went above and beyond any expectations. Kept it long and trimmed the sides with expert skill to allow my beard to still remain looking very full and long. I will continue going to Alex to get my beard trimmed every time. I highly recommend going here for any of your needs. AWESOME PLACE!

Fernando Garcia

Best haircut ever

Firuz Shams

I called to know if they busy, a guy told me no we no busy come. When I came there was 10 people waiting list and the guy kept told me 10 minutes but it took him one customer to finish 15-20 minutes
