Gentlemen’s Barber Shop

They take appointments, the barber knew what he was doing and I was very pleased with my haircut.

First, it’s worth mentioning that I’m a barber kinda guy, not one for a salon. This is a bit of a hybrid here as it’s not exactly equipped with a spinning striped pole out front, that said the guys do a great job! Scott, Ken, and Mark are a few really good guys and they keep it real here. They each maintain a splash of themselves in their booths and conversation is plentiful and equally real.
Noteworthy items for patroning here: there are just the three of them and just their three chairs. They have their regulars and stay busy, so while appointments aren’t a must, you may be hard pressed to get in otherwise. Aside from that you could do far worse finding a barber in Reno and of course speaking for myself, I enjoy their company, though it’s brief, each month (it should probably be more frequent).

Great place with three outstanding Barbers. Always friendly, always a good cut. They are busy most of the time so calling for an appointment a few day ahead is needed. They will fit you in if they can but they fill up most days. I’ve been going here for 14 years and never been disappointed

A throwback to the barbershops of yesteryear. (Which is all good in the sea of Supercuts, Great Clips, and the like) It really reminds me of some of the places I’ve gone in NYC and Oakland. A cash only mens’ affair where an appointment is required to ensure you can get in.
Since day one, I’ve always gone to Scott and he does a good job taming the mess when it gets too long.
Magazine selection is good and you can always catch some Sportscenter or the News depending on the time you go in.

This is a great barber shop. Ken «The Trout Man» did a great job with my hair every time. Cuts are $ 18, which is not bad. The banter is heavy on sports, so if you are a sports fan then this is your place. Each barber even has his own TV, which is usually tuned to ESPN. So why not 5-​stars? Well, I stopped going because you absolutely must get an appointment, and sometimes they are not easy to get. I made the mistake of walking in without an appointment once and was almost laughed out of the shop. I guess this is a great sign of a successful barber shop if you are booked solid all the time, but Ken started taking more days off and it seemed to be hard to even book an appointment. I probably should have switched to one of the other guys, but you know how it looks when a barber sees you switch to another guy in the same shop. It’s like dumping your girlfriend for her sister. Anyway, I haven’t found a decent alternative yet, so I may end up back here. Honestly, I’m not that huge of a sports fan and I feel a little intimidated when I walk into this shop, but I think I put on a good show. Ken is definitely a talker, by the way. This isn’t really a shop that you can just sit down and grumble a few commands and then sit in silence, so expect to be engaged in a conversation.

I absolutely love going to the Gentlemen’s Barber Shop. I get my haircut by Mark (middle barber) and have NEVER once had a bad haircut. The other barbers (Scotty & Ken) are also really, really good.
It’s a cozy and enjoyable place to get one’s haircut and they cut women’s hair as well.
The shop is clean and tidy and couldn’t ask to have your haircut by friendlier folks in Nevada. 5 Stars for these gents!
