Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming here regularly for the past four years. The staff and the atmosphere are both wonderful. Having a haircut in such a friendly, chatty environment makes the whole experience incredibly enjoyable. Thank you

Negative experience: Shitty job! Said on google — accepts apple pay and contactless payment but they only take cash. Didn’t bring any cash or card with me as was planning to pay thru applepay. And the new guy was in a hurry , shit job! Mind you there wasn’t people waiting. Highly do not recommend.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a customer of Ali’s for more than a decade and I couldn’t recommend him and his staff enough. Best barbers in Galway

Théo RODRIGUES Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Accueil à améliorer, le personnel pas très chaleureux. La coupe a ete très réussie, mais en me coupant les cheveux, la coiffeuse a cassé ma chaîne et s’est contentée de s’excuser, sans proposer de dédommagement ou de remise. J’ai dû moi-même aller chez un bijoutier pour faire un devis, puis revenir au salon pour discuter de la suite. Après quelques échanges compliqués, elle a finalement accepté de me rembourser la coupe. Une meilleure gestion de ce genre de situation aurait été appréciée. Si jamais vous vous faites couper chez eux, enlever votre chaine

Fantastic experience: A great place to get a great fade

Declan Sullivan Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Nice to have a barber that actually takes walk ins! Great haircut and atmosphere. Would highly recommend

Niall Lally Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: **NOT FOR MULLET HAIRCUT** Just got my hair butchered after specifically telling the barber “I’m growing out my mullet” and “I want to keep the length”. Fella in the far chair continued to cut out of some kind of weird impulse, and even said “sorry” mid trimming. Because it’s at the back I couldn’t tell properly until I turned my head after. Not only that, he could do with clippers not from Wish because my neck is left stinging after the beard trim.. He still somehow had the cells to ask for 38 euro at the end. Stay well clear

Fantastic experience: Best man in Galway to get it right

L Ga Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: There’s some good barbers here. Be careful, some barbers aren’t good, or will rush hair cuts, like taking 5 minutes to do a scissors cut and blend - you’ll end up with a buzz cut.

John Delaney Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Went with me friends to get my hair cut they went first after I seen what they did to there hair I just left I was glad it wasn’t me in the chair ! He didn’t listen to anything my friends were asking for there was 3 people working that day and I think they end up with someone who was still in training 22€ for the worse hair cuts I’ve seen in my life

W D Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: He cut my hair like a bowel it was as if he put a bowel over my head and just cut out that shape charged me 22€ to look like Edgar I had to get a buzz cut to fix the damage would not recommend

Pascal Klinker Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: Ich bin kurzfristig kurz vor Feierabend (18.15 Uhr) spontan in den Laden gekommen um nach einem Haarschnitt zu fragen. Ich konnte nach 5min. warten direkt Platz nehmen und wurde von Alex bedient. Er hat einen guten Job gemacht und ich bin zufrieden. Es war sehr nett mich so kurz vor Feierabend noch anzunehmen. In dem Barbershop kann man nur mit Bargeld bezahlen. Mir wurde aber angeboten das Geld auch nachher bringen zu koennen. Ebenfalls sehr nett.

Jerome Reynolds Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great haircut today with Eren, sound lad and very accommodating. Would recommend to a friend if I had any

Cialan Lohan Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ali barber gave my the best trim of my life

Martin “Beanz” Warde Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been getting my haircut here for over a decade. I have to get a bad cut yet there. Always a great interaction with the berbers, especially the owner, Ali. Competitively priced and great attention to detail on beard trims and shaping. Make sure to check out some of their great hair and beard products on sale too. I couldn't this place recommend more. I'd give more than 5 stars if it was possible.

Ali's barber

Thanks Martin always a pleasure!

Shukru Mustafa Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best haircut, I don't even tell Ali what to do, he knows the job. I always go to same place, ALIS BERBER SHOP.

Adam Pearl Published on Google 2 years ago

Ali's barber

Thanks Adam

Huzeyfe Akman Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: I had haircut in here, low quality trim! I don’t recommend this place to anyone.

Ali's barber

Huzeyfe first of all you have never even set foot inside my shop and have never once had a haircut from me or any member of my staff, so the fact that your so eaten up with jealousy for other people’s success shows how pathetic you are! You weren’t even in Galway your in Istanbul so if you do come to Galway have the decency to call to my shop and explain why you think it’s alright to publicly lie about others. I’ll look forward to seeing you!

Oto Khetaguri Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nice neat skin fade haircut.

Fabi Altu Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Haircut was OK but just got something basic done. Haircut took 5 mins but got chargesd over €20. Most expensive place I've got my hair cut in Galway by a long way. For a simple Haircut you are best go elsewhere more reasonably priced

John M Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Went for a haircut and hot towel shave. Hair cut was just ok but the hot towel shave was disgraceful, never again, ended up going home with a moustache and had to shave again at home, barber just didn’t know what to do, and had to ask for help off another Barber. Never again. 1 ⭐️ is too much

Ali's barber

John I’m sorry to hear you had a bad experience and can assure you it won’t happen again. Please make contact with me where I’ll be happy to give a full refund or I will personally give you a hot towel shave myself.
Ali

Fantastic experience: Apr'23: Got another incredible haircut from the same lady barber there ☺️ I still recommend to try out the place! Dec'22 : Was looking for a really good barber in the past year and found Ali's barber. The lady barber was really sweet to give me the hair cut that I wanted. Would 100% recommend to try out this place!

Patrick Hogan Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: This Saturday, I went to Ali's barber (in desperate need of a haircut) but I wasn't sure what to get. Kadear, the man who cut my hair, was so accomodating and helped me get the cut I didn't even know I wanted! 10/10 best haircut I've ever had

Alamin Mollah Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I would like to thank Eren for the excellent service. I was well received by Eren who was very attentive and kind. Eren paid a lot of attention to detail and cut my hair excellently. He is always paying attention to details and very careful. I will come back more often because I didn't find someone who cut my hair as well as he did.

Fantastic experience: Ik stapte spontaan binnen om te kijken of er ruimte was. Ik was meteen aan de beurt. Een kapper uit Italië heeft mij keurig en met zorg geknipt en bijgeschoren. Echt vakwerk! De prijs was betaalbaar. Let op, wel alleen contant betalen!

Ridhwaan S Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Passionate group of barbers. Never left disappointed. More often than not there will be a queue but never a long waiting time. Brilliant job friendly staff. They are very good at styling beards which is a rare skill on top of being able to do a good ol' hot towel shave. Reasonable price for city centre. $$.

Mohammed Aidarous Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got a great haircut, staff did exactly what i wanted it, all ears for your instructions.

Simon Thomson Walker Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Got the regular short back and side's and i just let him do his thing once he had found out how short i wanted it. It was everything a bloke want's to get ! Simple no fuss or drama and the Barber ( I got Ali himself ) is very skilled from what i saw him do to a couple of people in front of me, not only him but the other barber's were very good as well as i saw a variety of styles catered for. From skin tight to design's and line's added to the customer's cut. The overall experience was very VERY good in a score out of 10 I'd give the place a very satisfied 9.5 out of 10 . The only thing that caught me unaware was that he only took cash on the day i was there. Not sure if this is the case all the time or not but it wasn't a big issue as there's a lot of cash machine's literally one or two shop's down or just around the corner and he's such a nice guy and he trusted me to go out of his establishment and get the cash to pay for it, a less honest person could have just done a runner and not paid. So keep some cash on you just in case it's a cash only business. Sorry for the big long review but i am so impressed with the skill of ALL the barber's there and the excellent and relaxed atmosphere of the place along with the chat with the Barber if you were so inclined ( one person wasn't and it was no bother at all and didn't affect the atmosphere or the quality of his cut ). It's just a brilliant place to go get your hair cut. I'm sure that someone else will have had a different experience but from what i saw and including myself every customer was very happy with the job done and as there was a constant stream of people coming in and out of the place Ali's Barber shop is a very VERY popular business. In short go there and get your hair cut by a skilled Barber and enjoy the experience with no fuss or drama.

Stephen Feeney Published on Google 4 years ago

Negative experience: I went in for a cut and beard TRIM. AND I GAVE INSTRUCTIONS and he absolutely butchered me I don’t care about the haircut it was ok. the beard on the other hand well what’s left of it is destroyed and as good as stubble left. He did exactly what I didn’t want him to do and still paid 30€

C 16 Published on Google 4 years ago

Negative experience: Asked a few times for the barber to take a very small bit off and he done the exact opposite, also was very uneven in a few parts. Definitely the dodgiest haircut I've ever got.

Michael Fadden Published on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Just got the best hair cut of my life hands down from Karzan at Ali's on eyre Square near supermacs. Service was impeccable and Karzan went above and beyond. Attention to detail was amazing and such a relaxed and friendly environment. Beard shape, close shave, high fade, and scissors... even did my eyebrows and nose hair, and everything was done exactly as I asked if not better somehow. I'm a new man!! Will only be getting my hair cut by Karzan from now on for sure. Thanks Ali's Barber I'll be telling all the lads about this one! I'll be back for my next trim when needed.
