Reviews of Ace Barber Shop (Barber Shop)

Daniel Heron

Hair cut was great. I felt a little uncomfortable though in the place. Perhaps it was the high dude that walked in off the streets and acted like owned the place.

Akihiko Hashimoto

J Bernstein

Gabe and the crew are awesome! Been going here for years and don't plan to stop any time soon.

John

They need to work on their skill level. Judging from what they want you to perceive, I had great expectations...

Mike

Very satisfied with the service. Will definitely be coming back.

Rachel Maurer

Ace is awesome. Great barbers. Hip. Gabe the owner might treat you to some scratch music if he's there. Popular place. Haircuts $20, fades $15. I love this place.

John Knopp

Loved it! Walked in right as they opened they had me sheared and shaved in about twenty minutes. Even gave me a good recommendation for lunch as this was my first time in Albuquerque. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Hope I need a haircut the next time I'm in town!! If not, I'll get one, anyway.

William Hanson

***UPDATE*** The owner was very accommodating when I walked into his busy shop; he sent me to Carlo right away. Carlo did an outstanding job cutting my hair. I definitely plan on returning again and recommend ACE #APLUS I do not mind paying $20.00 for a cut; charging me an extra $5.00 for a quick wash without mentioning the cost was suspect. Most places in Albuquerque do not charge for a quick wash. Fortunately, the barber begrudgingly gave me $5.00 off after showing him my student ID.

Taylor Best

Awesome barbershop. First time going, great vibes, good conversation, and a quality haircut. For sure going back.

Jonathan Bock

Nice guys, good haircuts, funky atmosphere. Convenient downtown location. Usually some good art on the walls to to look at (local I believe) while you wait.

Erik Lewis

Best barber shop in town. Appointments recommended.

Mr Xeno

It's a mighty fine spot to get your head right. They take cash or plastic and even use straight razors.

William Norman

Attention to detail and they don't rush. Great cut!

Austin Wade

Conor is excellent. Always crushes it, and my cut is always exactly how I need. He puts in the work. 10/10 recommend Ace as a whole, and especially Conor

Kevin Alghul

Very cool and laidback shop. There’s also a strong artistic vibe which permeates from the decor and the barbers themselves. And Phil is one of the best barbers I’ve been to

Mr C

Great cut, great staff!

Tara Rodarte

These guys are awesome. Best haircut I’ve gotten in a long time! Fun, upbeat atmosphere!

SUMMON the WULF

Hands down best local barber shop in Abq. Ask for Gabriel if you want the fresh fade.

Greg Mays

Great shop, friendly barbers, unbeatable prices.

Robert Jackson

Best in the ABQ ! Hands down!

Jeremy Standiford

My favorite place to get a haircut. The price is good in comparison to the quality of the work they do.

Richard Snow

Ace Barber Shop is THE spot for a cut in downtown ABQ. The music is chill, and the rotating artwork always gives you something new to check out. Connor has been hooking me up with super sharp haircuts and was awesome with my 2yo last weekend. Definitely recommend checking them out.

Alan Matthiensen

I've been coming here for about 5 years or so now and am always impressed. The atmosphere is modern, but relaxing, the barbers are personable and attentive, and the prices are the best in the city. Gabe runs a great shop in downtown Albuquerque. After reading some of the reviews I just felt like I had to set the record straight and give everyone a perspective from a long-time customer. I would, however, recommend an appointment, as it can get fairly busy at times (especially on Saturdays). All in all, come to Ace if you want an awesome cut for a great price not too far from just about anywhere in town.

Chad Werenko

Best haircuts in town and a great atmosphere!! Don't forget to pick up a t-shirt while you're in there!

Jacob Richards

Found this place when I moved to town. Awesome barbers, great vibe, rotating art, good music always on. Love my haircut! Thanks guys

Vick Dupree

Great place

Phillip Shamas

This is a great place for your barber needs. Connor does an excellent job. You owe to yourself to get your haircut there and they sell products too!

Alan Baum

Called ahead to make an appointment “we only do walk ins on Saturdays.” So I walked in on a Saturday, waited for 40 minutes, and the guy that walked in after me apparently had an appointment. I’m extremely disappointed as they came recommended.

Laurin Beckhusen

Awesome experience every time. Great fades, good prices. Strait razor shaves leave you so fresh and so clean. Been coming here for 6 + years now!

Yevgeniy Zhupikov

It's been long time me since I had good cuts, always leave happy with their service. These guys are artists!

SonofMan74

Amber is the best barber in the house.

David

best cuts downtown and in an unique space

Grant Marek

Great place to get a cut and shave. Razor fade! Good people, music and great haircut.

Joel Brandon

Love the monthly art shows! Best shop in town

Nathan Sinton

Always a good experience here. Great results and friendly barbers.

Tyler Zundel

Connor is great. Had my hair cut and my 4 year olds. I know kids are harder and he was great with him. Fantastic price point. Highly recommend and will be back regularly.

Patrick Torres

Never come here without an appointment. 1.5 hr wait, barber left for lunch before calling me up (told me I’ll be next) and then just passed up by the other barbers for their regulars. Not a friendly place for new customers. At this point I’m just leaving and not coming back again, time to spread the word.

Andrew Huff

By far the best barbers in town. I tried every other place in town and stopped looking after I went here. Perfect razor fade from Amber.

Nathaniel Paolinelli

Gabe is awesome

Eric Sandine

This is where I get my hair cut!

Andre Appert

The guys at Ace always do a great job! Best cut I've ever gotten in Albuquerque. The atmosphere is super welcoming and they always have some great tunes playing. They're always super respectful and I always feel right at home. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Harry Greene

No joke, best haircut I have ever had by far. Worth getting ab appointment but I was able to get a haircut as a walk in!

germain505

Great shop downtown with good vibes and spinning records

M Csn

Always a good haircut, best barbers!

Jameel Tyson

Really good barbers but you need to arrive early to get a seat or make an appointment.

mateojuanitogan

I might like to come back here but $25 plus tip for a basic cut is crazy high for me. Downtown rates I suppose.

Evan Ray

Amazing in all aspects.You can expect to get a perfect haircut, no matter what you are looking for. Amber usually gives my cuts but any one of the barbers can set your hair straight. Give them a try! you wont regret it!

Jose Cordova

Good cuts, gotta go with Tommy!

Sebastian Sandoval

Good people, sick art, fresh cuts.

Carlos Garcia

Great place. Have been here a handful of times, and every time has been great. Haircuts are always how I want them, and the owner and employees take care and pride in their work. $20 for a haircut.

Ayman Rand

Gabe made me wait more than 15 minutes for my 11:00am appointment. Maybe because he was already BAKED? You can manage to get a decent cut from him if you micromanage him and speak very slowly, but since that's just one step away from cutting your own hair I suggest you go elsewhere. I know I will. BTW when customers and clients are all yelling at each other it means the music is too loud.

Travis Smith

I've been going to Ace for over a year now. Conor is my go to barber and has always been professional and accommodating of my schedule when arranging appointments. Definitely recommend!

peter reynolds

I love this place! They always treat me great and I always just walk in when I have time. I don't think I've have ever had to wait more than 10min.

Chris Saltonstall

Probably the best barber in abq but not that great.

Ilie Spilca

Best haircut I have ever gotten, they do amazing stuff

Erick Fox

Great vibe, old-school barbers' chairs, vinyl always playing. Been there three times now, cut by three different guys. Happy every time so far.

brian botkiller

Love this place, great ambiance and the barbers rock.

RJ Martinez

This barber shop is awesome. A very laid back and welcoming staff. A great barber shop environment. The next time I'm in the area I'm getting hair trimmed here.

Max Jensen

My first time here was the best experience I've ever had at a barber shop. Antonio took his time, gave an extremely sharp haircut, and was incredibly skilled with a straight razor. I feel like a million bucks, thanks dudes. I'll be back.

Jesus Zamora

Not a weak link in the chain . . . You can expect a quality hair cut from everyone who works there and they always play the best music!

louie martinez

Alcario rocks... excellent skills detail oriented. Gives great cut also probably because he’s not a bad listener. Laid back, friendly and I wasn’t interviewed, has art of easy conversation. The owner too genuinely welcoming and high spirited. My first visit on impulse yesterday. Too bad for me, Ace on 4th street right south off Central too far out of the way...

Jay Edwards

I will never go to another barber in Albuquerque! I have been coming here for months and each time I go I am floored by the exceptionally kind and talented staff, the exceptional atmosphere in the shop and their exceptional taste in music.

Tom maestas

Vinyl records for music. Excelente fades, Fine use of blades, really recommend

Bert Goodman

Descent haircut but $20 is a little steep for a "gentlemen's haircut"

Joe Cardillo

These folks do good work. The shop has been around for about 10 years, and is super friendly and has a great vibe. Basic haircut will cost you twenty bucks, and pretty much all of the stylists are on point. You can call ahead for appointments, or you can walk-in terms of ttiming just plan on having an extra 20 to 30 minutes if you do the walk-in. They also display local art and have openings once a month, in combination with the First Friday Art Crawl.

Joseph T

Great haircuts and a very cool vibe. It is getting a little pricey.

Zero Griffith

Top notch barbers and a trendy shop with different art displayed every month makes for a great place to get a cut no matter your style.

F I

I went in there having no idea what I wanted. All I knew is I wanted my hair to look better and for something to be done about my big beard. They brought me in a suggested a bunch of things and even told me other stores where I can go get them. My hair and beard look better than I hoped for and the people were extremely friendly the whole time.

Marco Nieto

Very mellow atmosphere which made me feel both welcome and comfortable. I got my hair cut by Connor who paid close attention to detail and did an awesome job. Highly recommend this shop.

D GR

Everything you like about a barber shop and none of what u hate about them. Great chill staff, made me feel welcome. I heard rave reviews for Gabe there but he was booked. Was attended by Reuben, and he gives a boss cut! Highly recommended, attention to detail, and good prices and service. Thanks ACE!

Judem B

Came in for an actual haircut after years and years of cutting it myself. The guys do a great job. Highly recommended

Nicho Martinez

Great cut everytime

Bill Kelman

Great haircut , nice people 5 stars

Laura Solomon

Awesome shop. My boys love Conor and always leave feeling fresh. They won’t go to anyone else!

Lyle Bennett

Love their work and very chill

Justin Ferguson

They have good barbers but they are way overpriced

Tyler grizzle

Best hair cut in the city.

Brandon Howard

The place is awesome. The atmosphere is top notch, the barbers are great and the price is extremely fair.

Samuel C.

First time I walked in and loved it ! Good cut plus good environment makes the best out of it.

Sid

This place rocks and the homies do good work

Brandon Baca

Great guys, good company, awesome fades!!

Steven Nery

Every barber here is a pro. The place is easy-going and the customer base is very eclectic. Great attention to detail, great chat, great vibe. Go here.

Tino Martinez

Awesome and exciting barbershop to come an get your hair done

Austin Provencher

Conor is the only man I trust with my beard. He is a master of his craft. Also, they play great music.

Athanasius Herrick

Been to 3 barbers my whole life... One in my hometown and then I tried another place and he messed my hair up so I will be going here for the rest of my life...

Hiccup Haddock

The barber that cut my hair cut my neck and didn’t do what I asked for so I don’t think I’ll be going back given how I have a deep cut on my neck and my ear also my hair is nothing I had asked for I would suggest going to a different barbershop even though ace used to be the place I would live to go to but now I don’t see myself going back there I’ll be finding s new barbershop

Paul Andrade II

Gabe the Barber is great and the atmosphere is great as well!

Monica T

I'm very happy with my cut. Brett did a great job. I came in as a walk in & it wasnt a long wait at all. The vibe, the vinyl, nice guys, I will mos'def come back & highly recommend.

Santino Chavez

Wonderful atmosphere great haircuts recommend Conor!!

TileMaster

Quality, timely, and professional.

Arzamas -16

These guys always give great haircuts and the atmosphere is great. I'm only giving 3 stars because some of the guys who work there spend too much time on their phone. My combined wait time and haircut time could probably be cut by 30 minutes if he spent less time on his phone and 100% of the time on cutting hair.

Andrew West

This is the best barber shop I've ever been to. The haircuts here are so well executed and the guys are so friendly and really know how to explain your style to you so you know what to ask for next time. The vibe is cool with local art and they even sell some great products. Carlos is my guy there.

Eric Miller

This is the best barbershop in Abq! I’m so glad I found this place. Conor always keeps me looking clean.

Francisco Trujillo

Dude fit me in as a walk in on a day they only do scheduled cuts so that was cool. Walked out feeling fresh too.

Derek Quibell

It's a very small but nice Barber shop I've got my haircut here twice and was very satisfied each time I went

Matthew Tucker

I've been getting great haircuts here for the past seven years or so. Nobody beats Gabe as a barber or DJ!

D SS

Great cuts by great dudes!

C1 2

Walk-In ... stated I was looking for a good haircut. The guy sweeping turned his back and said something durogatory to the barber working on a customer and laughed. Used to go to this shop in the past when I worked across 4th street and always had a great experience. WOW what happened . Richard cabeza de Baca

Molly Keyes

My husband went in to Ace this morning after getting a HORRIBLE haircut at Supercuts. He asked the barber to fix it and after a short conversation about what he wanted and what it was supposed to look like, she got to work. She was meticulous, careful, and did a fantastic job! When she was done, the cut was wonderful. It turned out incredibly well and we were very impressed with the work she did! We started out with quite possibly the worst haircut he's ever had, and it turned into one of the best. We will definitely be coming back!

Kevin Smith

After moving back to Albuquerque from Seattle I had a hard time finding a good barber shop like the ones I was used too. This place is just what I was looking for. A great cut, shave the neck, and good conversation.

Joe Gonz SWK

Really like the downtown location. The art inside is awesome. Great energy and great barbers really friendly. Got my haircut from Ruben he did a great job. Would recommend this place to anyone. Only thing the cuts aren't cheap $20 for a fade. But worth it

Dan Mosman

Awesome place to get a great cut and trim. Loved the vibe from the crew there. They really know what they're doing!

Kimberly Leppots

Looked up google reviews, saw nothing but greatness so I took one of my boys here on the fly. So we called, spoke to Gabe who was supes nice, so we strolled in and WOW!! Both dudes were busy cutting but were welcoming, had great tunes and lots of cool stuff to look at in the meantime. Then another guy who seemed to be the owner came in with clean laundry and I believe a new item for the cool shelf. Anyway, it reminds me of when we were out in New York or Miami in this little whole in the wall spot, with great vibes and great cutters. Boy got a great cut and as a chick, I definitely recommend you guys goin here. Price is on point for the service and chill atmosphere here. Definitely a dude spot, and I'm pretty happy to have witnessed it lol Also, had to leave a review right away cause this is the first spot I've been to that has Juxtapoz on hand. And as yal know, I am everywhere, so kudos to these dudes.

iron horse

Great hair cut everytime I go! Ask for Greg
