Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a world-class haircut and a premium grooming experience, look no further than CG Barbershop in Arjaan, Dubai Media City. The shop is led by Carlos, who is hands down one of the greatest hairdressers I have encountered in Dubai in years. His attention to detail, precision, and vision for style are unmatched. He doesn't just cut hair, he understands face shapes and hair textures to deliver a look that is perfectly tailored to you. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is welcoming yet sophisticated and the team is incredibly professional. For any sort of men’s grooming, I bet you won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: It was my first time at a relatively higher-end barber such as CG Barbershop; and they truly showed their value with their welcoming and accommodating customer service, along with interactive and insightful consultation. Elle showed great skill and expertise when it comes to long hair, such as mines. She was very intricate with the volume and layering, as well as consistency with lengthening both sides properly. Thanks a lot, Elle! I will most definitely be coming back as a regular to CG Barbershop.

Negative experience: Being asked to leave a review on the spot, with an obvious expectation of 5 stars, was uncomfortable and not credible. On top of that, there was too much talking and not enough attention to what I actually asked for. Overall, it wasn’t a pleasant experience.

Fantastic experience: I had an incredible experience with Alex at GC Barbershop. From start to finish, his attention to detail was second to none. I got the full treatment — haircut, shampoo, beard trim and shave, eyebrow threading (done by one of the ladies there), plus nose and ear waxing — and it honestly felt like a luxury grooming experience. Alex took his time to make sure everything was perfect and really cared about the result. It wasn’t just a haircut; it was a full reset. Easily the best barbershop experience I’ve ever had. Highly recommend asking for Alex if you want precision, professionalism, and a top-notch experience. Thanks again Alex!
Thank you, Thomas. We’re so glad you enjoyed the full CG experience and that Alex delivered exactly what you were looking for. It’s great to hear you left feeling refreshed and taken care of. We look forward to welcoming you back in the CG chair soon.

Fantastic experience: Had tried many barbers here in Dubai, but only truly understood what a real barber experience is when I visited CG and Abidal. This was my first time here and I specifically wanted to book with Abidal, and wow, what an experience. He’s not just a barber, he’s a true artist. The consultation was excellent, explaining what works and what doesn’t, and the execution was absolutely perfect. On top of that, he’s a super nice guy, which made the whole appointment even better. I’ll never go anywhere else or to a different barber again!
Thanks so much, Pascal. Really appreciate your detailed feedback and we’re glad you enjoyed your experience with Abidal and the CG team. He takes a lot of pride in his work and it’s great to hear that came through. Looking forward to seeing you again soon.

Fantastic experience: There are haircuts — and then there are moments that remind you of the quiet power of being seen, heard, and cared for. That’s exactly what I experienced with Carlos at CG Barber Shop. From the very first moment, Carlos brought more than just skill — he brought presence. He listened, asked the right questions, and approached my haircut not just as a task, but as a form of art and care. You can feel when someone puts heart into what they do — and Carlos does. Every detail of the cut was done with intention, precision, and genuine pride in his craft. What touched me most was the quiet confidence he gave me by the end — not just in how I looked, but in how I felt walking out. A simple haircut became a small reminder of self-worth and the beauty of slowing down to let someone else take care of you, even just for a moment. Thank you, Carlos — not just for the cut, but for the kindness and grounding energy you brought with it. I’ll be back, not just because you’re great at what you do, but because you made the experience meaningful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you Rami for this review. Really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Carlos puts a lot into what he does and it’s clear that came through. We’ll make sure he sees this. Hope to see you back in the chair soon.

Hi Balen,
Thank you for your review. We’re glad to hear Umid gave you a great experience and that you would recommend him to others. We look forward to welcoming you back to CG Barbershop.
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience! The team is incredibly professional, and Carlos was exceptional. He guided me with great style and attention to detail. I truly appreciated his expertise and friendly approach. Highly recommended!
Hi Nuri,
Thank you for your review. We are delighted to hear you had such a positive experience with Carlos and that the CG Barbershop team made a strong impression. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back soon.
Negative experience: Everything other than the haircut was good. Did a really good job on the beard but failed to follow instructions with the haircut even after showing pictures. At this price point, instructions should be followed clearly.

Hi Daniyal,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are glad to hear you were happy with the beard trim but sorry that the haircut did not fully meet your expectations. At CG Barbershop we take client instructions seriously, and we will review this with our team to ensure better consistency moving forward. We would welcome the chance to have you back and provide you with the experience you were hoping for.
Fantastic experience: I had the great pleasure of having Alex cut my hair and I couldn’t be happier with the result. He delivered exactly what I wanted and more. His attention to detail and the time he took to perfect the cut truly stood out. Alex is hands down the best barber I’ve ever had and I’ll definitely be returning to him. CG Barbershop is not just a place for a haircut, it’s a unique and professional experience.
Hi Raunak,
Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted to hear Alex’s attention to detail and craft stood out and that your visit to CG Barbershop felt unique and professional. We look forward to welcoming you back for your next haircut.
Negative experience: absolutely do not go if you have curly hair (3b in my case) they do not know how to cut it and will just brush the curls out

Fantastic experience: Thanks for the barber *Alex* from bosnia is the best ! Thanks for CG. The price for the hair cut is 185 AED and it’s worth it.
Thank you, Ahmed! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your experience with Alex — he’ll be pleased to know his work is appreciated. We look forward to seeing you again in the CG chair
Fantastic experience: Best haircut I have ever had. Sami explained why past cuts failed and walked me through each step. The result was better than I thought possible
Hi Tim,
We’re so pleased to hear Sami was able to guide you through the process and give you the best haircut you’ve had. He takes real pride in making sure every client leaves CG Barbershop feeling their best. We look forward to welcoming you again.
Fantastic experience: I had my haircut and beard done at CG Barber a couple of weeks ago with Carlos, and I have to say it was one of the best grooming experiences I’ve had. Carlos is an artist. He approaches his work with precision, technique, and a real passion for the craft. What sets him apart is that he doesn’t just give you a haircut he designs a look that suits your head shape and features. He even shared insights about my skull structure and recommended what styles would complement it best. It’s clear he takes great pride in what he does, and it truly shows in the results. Highly recommended if you’re looking for more than just a routine cut this is grooming with intention and skill. Beyond the haircut itself, the entire vibe of CG Barber is on point. The playlist sets a great mood, the service is top-tier, and the hospitality is unmatched from the warm welcome to the drinks offered, every detail is thought out. It’s an A to Z experience that goes way beyond the chair. If you’re looking for high level grooming in a place that feels both cool and professional, this is the spot.
Hey Mak,
Really appreciate you taking the time to write this. Carlos will be so glad to hear it. He genuinely puts a lot into each appointment, so it’s great to see that recognised. Always happy when someone gets what we’re about.
Hope to see you back in the CG chair soon.
Fantastic experience: Carlos is hands-down one of the best barbers I’ve ever been to He takes his time gives honest feedback, and makes sure the final result is exactly what fits your face and style The cut was clean detailed and exceeded my expectations CG Barbershop itself is a professional atmosphere, great vibe, and everything is spotless and well run This place actually cares about quality not just rushing people in and out
Hi Yousif,
Thank you so much for this incredible review. We’re thrilled to hear how much you appreciated Carlos’s care and attention to detail — he truly takes pride in creating tailored results for every client.

Fantastic experience: Hani is an absolutely awesome barber. He always delivers top-notch haircuts that are exactly how I want them—clean, sharp, and consistent every time.

Highly recommend him if you’re looking for someone who truly knows what they’re doing!

Fantastic experience: A barber is an engineer for all practical purposes. And I have struggled for many years in Dubai to find that one person who could create what I have always wanted my hair to look like and feel. I can highly recommend CG Barbershop and especially the master barber Carlos for anyone looking for the best. I was a bit wary of the cost of the haircut but after the experience and the result it was all worth it and more. The advice on the style as per the hair type , volume etc was just spot on. Thank you Carlos. You have a client forever
Hi Sajid,
Thank you for such a detailed and generous review. We’re truly glad to hear that your experience with Carlos met your expectations — it’s always our goal to combine skill with care. We appreciate your trust and support, and look forward to welcoming you again.
Fantastic experience: Abidal was a quality barber. World class. He was a good vibe & had the shop chatting and laughing. Great experience. Would 100% go again
Hi S,
Thanks for your feedback — we’re really pleased to hear you had a great experience with Abidal. He’s a real asset to the team and it’s always good to know the energy in the shop adds to the visit. Look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service in an exceptionally chilled and professional environment. I whole heartedly recommend the guys at CG Barbershop for their skills, professionalism and attention to detail. An absolute world class service from Raj who made my son and I feel like kings with his level of expertise!! A wealth of talent here, thanks guys!!
Thank you so much for the amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that you and your son had such a great experience with Raj — he’ll be over the moon to hear your kind words. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you both back to CG Barbershop again soon!
Fantastic experience: First time getting a haircut & pedicure from CG Barber. Hadi did a great job cutting my hair & Princess did a great job with the pedicure. Customer service was also excellent. I would definitely recommend.
Thank you so much for visiting us and for your kind words! We’re so glad to hear that Hadi and Princess made your first experience a great one. We’ll be sure to pass on your feedback to them. Looking forward to welcoming you back again soon!
Fantastic experience: My facial was great, my manicure was amazing, but best of all was my haircut done by Abidal. Greatest haircut I’ve ever done and the fades were masterclass. 10/10.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your facial and manicure — and especially that your haircut with Abidal was the highlight. He takes great pride in his fades, and feedback like this means the world to us. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon for another 10/10 experience!
Fantastic experience: Went there for the first time (thanks TikTok), and I didn't pick anyone in specific. I bought the haircut, beard trim, manicure, and facial. Raj did an amazing job and enjoyed the chat with him. I've been struggling with my hair. Had a hair transplant 6 months ago and didn't know what to do. Raj knew what works for my head and delivered it perfectly. Won't go anywhere else from now on.
Hi Dali, We’re so glad TikTok led you to us — and even happier to hear Raj made such a great impression! It means a lot to know you felt in good hands, especially post-transplant when trust is everything. Raj is incredibly thoughtful with his approach, and we’re proud to have him on the team. Looking forward to welcoming you back in the CG chair.
Fantastic experience: Pre wedding haircut with Siroj. Safe to say hands down the best haircut I’ve ever had. Great experience and really nice guy
Hi Kyle. That means a lot — especially for such an important moment! We’re so glad you trusted us with your pre-wedding haircut, and we’ll be sure to pass on the love to Siroj. Wishing you all the best for the big day and beyond — hope to see you again soon!
