Reviews of Rick's Barber Shop-Union Road (Barber Shop)

A

The proprietor Rick gave me the worst haircut of my life. The conversation was corny and the whole atmosphere of the place was pathetic on a Saturday early afternoon. The other guy was just standing there and did not say a word the whole time. Should have known as other places are bustling with business on a Saturday. He cut my hair in the back way too high, no razor on the back of the neck or around ears (guess that is OK in this case as I could get the damage repaired sooner, but all other barbershops do use razors and make the haircut worth it and last longer), hairs sticking out all over my head, left a chunk behind the ear that a loved one noticed and pointed i out to me so I had to fix it myself, cut hair unevenly on the side and no fading whatsoever, uneven length of hairs on the side of my head. The overall effect was that of an amateur job. He spoke about not doing well financially and rent being too high. I understand why! Also, I can understand the negative reviews because the haircut looks like he intentionally messed it up as it could not look any worse if he tried. I gave him a shot despite being warned by the posters, but now I understand what is going on. Instead of trying to play a victim and having a need to post an excuse for the negative reviews, Rick should spend time learning the basics of hair cutting and appropriate barbershop conversation! Stop with that pathetic conversation and hot seat questioning!

Friendly staff, cheap prices, and very accomaditing. Rick also gives a Fade that's fresh AF.

Yikes talk about the worst haircut I have ever received. Great place if you enjoy terrible service and a fade where half the hair on the side of your head sticking up. Oh and the back of your head too! Then tries to comment about my last barber taking the caulic in the back of my head up so it didn’t stick up — now that good old boy rick cut my hair my caulick is currently again sticking up. Needless to say I cannot wait to see the barber who he decided to ridicule tomorrow before I forget this god awful haircut and the loose hairs that are sticking up all over my head. Hopefully this review will save atleast one person out there the misfortune of looking at these other reviews and actually getting a haircut from from this barber like I had the unfavorable experience of.

Appointment only and he was able to fit me in the next day after calling. Nice guy who's quick and complete.

Nathan Emery

Down to earth guy, great at what he does. If you want a real barber and want to support a small local business, there is no better place to start. I don't let anyone else get a blade close to my hair.

Joe Gianino

Know him my whole life he is family and me and my Dad's best friend and my uncle. Best cut in town he has been doing it his whole life.

David Copeland

It's on the east side of union, across from Tucker's, in the strip mall next to Grace Union.

Gregory Wade

Best place I've ever gone too. Great guys. Will and have recommended!

Elliott Telle

My father, brother, and I are loyal life long customers of Rick. Rick’s professional skills and friendly attitude create a wonderful atmosphere that reminds you of a time when barbers truely cared about their customers. Forget modern day chains that treat you like a sheep getting sheared, and make you pay rediculous rates for their low quality work. If you’re looking for a place where being a regular means great conversation, a great haircut, and a great experience, then Rick is your man.

Mark Exline

He knows what he's doing he does it right. No Matter what style of cut you get.

Richard Bockwinkel

Found Rick's Barber shop by asking Siri "Nearest Barber Shop". Although Rick works by appointment, I was lucky to walk in and get served right away. Turns out Rick's dad cut my hair when they had their shop in Grasso Plaze many moons ago. Great to catch up with Rick...and get a GREAT haircut too.

Great barber shop with excellent customer service. They took me in late on a Saturday without concern for the time and did a great job. Thank you!

Rick has been cutting my hair for 40+ years and I would recommend him anytime. I see there are a few negative reviews some scammer posted. Unfortunately Rick is getting calls asking for money from some supposed ‘Google Teammate’ saying they will remove the negative posts in exchange. Don’t believe any of those negative comments. Anyone who has been here knows the great business he runs.

Zachary Krueger

Two-man operation, Rick and Phil. I had Phil. Fade is great, nape is a bit funky. Haircut includes beard trim. $14, no credit cards.

Mike K

Horrible experience Went there recently and asked for a medium cut. Ended up with 1/4" long hair, which is not a medium length. I asked to have my mustache trimmed. He gouged it so bad I had to shave it off. I'm not happy at all! I went because I heard good things and his reviews weren't bad. Will not go back. Can not recommend this place to anyone.

Eric Schoenberg

Very friendly, never had a bad experience.

John Roberts

My first time here. I am very impressed with the way my hair was cut. It was done EXACTLY the way I wanted. I will be back when its time for another haircut.

Harry West

Got a much needed hot towel shave and removed my three week old beard. Got that clean cut look!
