Zil Barbers: Reviews
Positive experience: If you want a quick, honest tidy up at a reasonable price. This is the place. No airs, nothing fancy. Just a good quick cut. I'll def be back.
Negative experience: I don't know if the old man know anything about hair cut .. wrost experience
Fantastic experience: They are quick and remember how I like it your in and out before you know it
Negative experience: I'm 30 year old,worst hair cut experience in my 30 years ,1.the guy is in a hurry for some stuffs ,so he didn't listen me,he didn't clean the hair comb ,trimmer I found someone hairs ,he didn't bother about that after the hair cut he didn't clean the hairs ,after in ask him for trim my bears he was tell some meaning reson . So I just walk away from there.im not spreading hate ,please guys don't take a risk
Fantastic experience: Really good haircuts at Zil Barbers in Johnsonville. I’ve been getting my haircuts there for about 7 years now, and they are always in line to meet my requests. All staff are highly skilled. Whenever I walk in, I’m confident I’ll get a great haircut regardless of who’s cutting my hair. Super affordable as well, especially compared to some of the other high prices with barbers in Wellington at the moment. I highly recommend.
Positive experience: Expected a little cheaper.
Fantastic experience: Best barber shop ive been too
Negative experience: I stopped coming to Zil Barbers. They either don't listen or don't care about their level of service. They had one female barber who was excellent, she has gone. If I ask for a buzz cut you need to pass over in several directions to get all hair. They don't bother. The only reason they don't get one star is because they have not cut me and drawn blood.
Fantastic experience: Great people who know what they are doing
Negative experience: Requested for a low fade but he trimmed completely to the level and claimed that to be it. The lethargy and the carefree attitude didn’t help much either. I wouldn’t visit this barber as I wasn’t happy with the outcome.
Negative experience: Terrible haircut. I can do better myself. It’s all uneven and it’s not really what I asked for. There used to be a couple of other workers that used to be there that were fantastic, but this place is no longer any good.
Negative experience: Pathetic experience. The guys was not at all interested in listening to what haircut i want, and was in some kind of hurry or something and just did not pay attention to what haircut i wanted. Even during the cutting, no matter what i said he just wanted to do a haircut what he knows . left me with a untidy, uneven and pathetic haircut. wont go there again, and wont recommend others to go here.
Negative experience: No good
Negative experience: Stay away. Worst cut of my life. I legitimately thought the guy was joking, I left looking like a 10 year old from 2005.
Negative experience: Worst haircut i’ve ever had. No straight lines. A messed up a fade. Everything went wrong. He did not take care of my hair or even try to copy the video of the hair style I wanted. Would like a refund or a recut of my hair.
Sorry about your experience please come back in will re cut it again
Negative experience: Gave me a 10 min cut. Ruined my hair. Dont waste your money here.
Negative experience: went in today and specifically told the barber i wanted a little trim and showed him twice how much i i wanted off one before the cut and one before he went to trim the top and he proceeded to not listen and cut half my hair pretty disappointing as i cant even style it how i want to now got charged 35 dollars was in and out in 10 min
Positive experience: I wish I could only request specific barber. Going into there is a gambling and hoping that you would get a good barber.
Negative experience: Stay away!!! They messed up my sons hair completely!! I am going to have to take him to another barber to salvage what we can! We asked for a fade and they gave him an uneven buzcut and left everything long at the top!! They are not qualified to be cutting hair!!!
Negative experience: Horrible cuts both times. Plus when I took my son for a haircut at 4.55pm after seeing that they close at 5.30pm. The person rudely responded that the shop is closed. Would never go here again and would strongly advise others to avoid as well.
Negative experience: Rushed through hair cut in about 15mins. The barber got frustrated when I asked for it to be tidied up. Wouldn’t recommend.
Negative experience: Paid 32 bucks for the worst haircut I've ever had, didnt listen to a word i said, I could do a better job blindfolded, would not recommend this place
Negative experience: I took my kid for hair cut there and guess what! I should have read the reviews first. Worst hair cut possible in the world. Do not know what they are doing. I asked for trim and fades, they did only one side the other was uneven did even faded the back of the head. Never going back there
Fantastic experience: Gave our son the best haircut he's had. The barber put so much care into the cut, perfect lines and fade, and made our son so welcome and comfortable. Top notch
Negative experience: Walked in, made eye contact with the barber who was on his phone on a call. Proceeded to wait, guy didn't even come off the phone the whole time or say a word to me. Place was empty other than him. Wonder why ....
Fantastic experience: Staff are very good and meet your requirements without fuss. Would definitely recommend them.
Positive experience: Very good
Fantastic experience: Good service
Negative experience: Worse haircut no one else in the shop barber rushed job no care taken didnt even take time to fade properly travel from Whakatane for worse cut 50 bux for a cut and shave deffs not worth the money dont recommend
Negative experience: They cut blokes' hair.
Negative experience: if you hope to do a cut in 3 minutes for $30, this is right place! They need to do & learn properly hair cut then operating a business.
Negative experience: My experience there was beyond disappointing. The barber barely spent two minutes on my hair, and the result was a mess that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Not only was the haircut rushed, but it was also completely uneven and lacked any semblance of style. It felt like the barber couldn't wait to get me out of the chair. I left feeling frustrated and embarrassed by the lack of attention to detail. Save yourself the time and money, and steer clear of Zil Barbers. It's not worth the risk of walking out with a CLAPPED haircut. I mean like was the guys even trying? like bro i would rather have had a 3 year old done it than whoever was on shift that day bru. Like fr DO NOT come here. -5 stars
Negative experience: They cut my hair in 3 mins and now it looks horrible
Negative experience: $30 and less than 10mins spent on my hair, leaving a messy fringe and very little care or precision involved. Won't be coming back.
Negative experience: Great place to go if you want an old man that completely disregards what you ask and instead makes you look like you’ve been in the military for three years
Negative experience: literally the worst haircut i have probably gotten. one side of my head is completely uneven and he did the job in about 5 minutes, such poor and lazy work. getting charged $30 for something that took a couple minutes is outrageous and i'm never going there again. he didnt even finish the back of my head and I had to get another barber in jville that I know well to fix it up for me. apparently some guys have only been working there for 3 weeks! so unprofessional its embarrassing
Negative experience: Worst haircut ♂️
Positive experience: Quick, efficient and decently priced, it was worth it. Recommended.
Negative experience: Asked for an undercut and fade on the side. The guy rushed through the cut, taking the whole side of as well as a patch on the top. Had to go to another shop to fix it, and now I walk around with a cap.
Negative experience: Extremely Disappointing Experience Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ I recently took my son to Johnsonville Salon for a haircut, and I must say, it was an incredibly disappointing experience. I had shown the hairdresser a picture of the style we wanted before the haircut, but unfortunately, the end result was nothing like it. My son was in tears when he saw his hair, and it was evident that the initial cut was a complete disaster. Another hairdresser attempted to fix it, but it only made matters worse. The final outcome was far from what we had expected and hoped for. We were left deeply dissatisfied with both the haircut and the overall experience. It's unfortunate when a simple trip to the salon turns into such a distressing ordeal. I strongly advise caution when considering this salon for your hair care needs, as our experience was far from satisfactory.
We extremely sorry about your experience. Please do come in and show this message for the next haircut will fix it once it's grown a bit and no charge for that the the least I can do so sorry once again
Negative experience: Honestly the worst hair cut I’ve ever had, there was no one in the store and the bald guy was rushing like he had customers lined up, the top of my hair was completely uneven I’ve never seen a barber cut hair the way this guy does. Save your money and go somewhere else
Negative experience: This is one of worst haircut I did from my school days. Only good thing is my wife was laughing out louder after a long time.
Negative experience: Very average experience, squared off the back of my hair like a perfect box. No communication just a rough overpriced cut, don’t do it
Negative experience: Has to be one of the worst haircuts I've ever recieved. I'm sure the other barbers are much more skilled but the barber I had didn't listen and did a terrible job in the process.
Fantastic experience: Great service event busy
Negative experience: WORST BARBERS IN WELLINGTON - DO NOT GO HERE!!! Firstly the barbers are mute, they don't say a word to you nor do they even listen to you when you ask for a certain cut. They have no idea how to fade at all and if you ask for a little or a lot off the top it's all the same to them and they cut your entire head in 2mins or less because they have no idea what they are doing. No wet hair scissor cut or anything, they simply get the scissors on dry hair and start chopping without brushing your hair or wetting it and parting it. After the cut there is clearly a mess of long and short hairs on top of the head and an uneven fade but they don't notice it and even when paying and leaving they still don't say a word to you. Actually the most useless barber business ever.
Negative experience: Terrible cut. Terrible service. Clearly rushed through the cut (despite no one else waiting) and didn’t speak a word. Although he was happy answer his phone and talk to someone else mid cut. When I tried to mentioned what I wanted during the cut (some extra off the top), the barber shrugged it off and didn’t listen. Will not return and would not recommend.
Negative experience: Probably the worst haircut I've ever had.... Asked me (or just motioned to me)what i wanted and then did whatever he wanted anyway. Probably because he couldn't understand one word i was saying. I pointed out something to fix and he had no idea what i was talking about. I can't believe i paid for it
Positive experience: Happy
Fantastic experience: A fast, good haircut. There is often a wait so choose your time to visit to avoid normal busy times (after school, lunchtime, weekends)
Negative experience: Probably the worst haircut I ever got. I got a second haircut the same day to try to make it more presentable. The 2nd hairdresser was quite polite and didn't want to make a comment on this barber shop reputation but she knew it was not good. stay away
Fantastic experience: My good pal Jimmy got his pubic hair trimmed to a number 3. I gotta say he was lined up like drake.
Fantastic experience: Good bunch of guys welcomes with a smile, makes a customer wants to come again..Nice one guys
Fantastic experience: Awesome value, great haircut's! :)
Negative experience: Absolutely horrid. I hadn't had a haircut for about a year and a half, and I had finally decided I'd let it go since it was just becoming a pain at that point, and I wasn't the biggest fan of the way it looked. I showed the person a picture of what I roughly wanted, and he ended up giving me something the was not anything like what I had asked for and was basically just a bowlcut at that point. My hair probably won't be looking good again for atleast a few months. Save your money and go somewhere that won't ruin your hair.
Fantastic experience: The guys there are always helpful and give great ideas for your cut.
Negative experience: Worst barber in Wellington. Just went didn’t speak a word to me when I asked for a little bit off took a large chuck. Guy was an absolute tool no skill don’t go here save your money.
Fantastic experience: Number 1 barbers, in Wellington, these barbers will have you looking superfly
Negative experience: One barber takes his time, the other's in a rush despite no one waiting. I got the rush guy. Under three minutes for a cut and lots of random long hairs were missed, so now I need to trim them myself.
Fantastic experience: Went in for a quick and easy cut. I didn't expect much but I was pleasantly surprised! The guy was really courteous but didn't try and push conversation on me, clean and professional cut, can't fault him. I feel like with better marketing the place would be really successful!
Positive experience: Depends who you get some are very rough
Fantastic experience: always a good service, barbers listen to customer request which is very important as the customer is the one having a haircut. well recommended
Fantastic experience: Need a cut, it's the place to Go, walk in.
Fantastic experience: Great service
Fantastic experience: Very Happy with my haircut and reasonable as well
Fantastic experience: RIchard's the man, my wife insists I go back to him as he does such a good job and takes really good care. Today I went in and he was going to go on lunch but he postponed this so I could get my hair done by him. Very much appreciated, also reasonable price and the wait times are never too long.
Positive experience: Place and staff is good
Negative experience: Worst Hair Cut Ever. i asked for a simple skin fade finger length texture cut with scragly parts only cut off the beard, left with a full shaven beard, god awful skin fade and no remorse from the barber, NEVER GO HERE EVER.
Fantastic experience: My barber is great, works fast and cuts well. Only had to wait for about 5 minutes.
Negative experience: I went there on monday and experienced terrible haircutting experience which i never had before, the guy on the right handside was very rough and didnot care that might hurt his harshness to the customer, he left couple of marks on my forehead and some at my back of the head. Overall bad experience, please calm yourself and be gentle.
Positive experience: Has changed to become Zil Barbers, prices sheet
Negative experience: I would not recommend this barber to anyone. No care at all was taken while it was being cut and the lack of skill was apparent. Instead of walking out with a nice clean cut, It was a very rushed job with my partner noticing a small bold spot on the back of my head
Negative experience: They hygiene is not good here, they don't clean the Clippers.
Positive experience: They give pretty good haircuts, but they don't follow their online hours, 2 days I've gone well before they're meant to close, and they've turned me away
Negative experience: Worst haircut. Asked for a trim and to keep the length. The barber proceeded to cut most of my hair off.
Fantastic experience: Awesome service.. Highly recomended
Fantastic experience: Skilled barber, made sure I knew what I wanted and double checked. Most barbers don't even ask me. 10/10 will come again
Fantastic experience: Excellent service
Fantastic experience: Good quality and quick haircuts
Positive experience: Good place to get a haircut, usually have 3-4 barbers waiting if you go early
Positive experience: It's the cheap place for good reason. I've had three haircuts here, and each one has been uneven. Others don't notice though. It's an express outfit and the barbers are rapid. They don't comb up when using a number three, so each haircut I've had, around the number 3 area you find long hairs which avoided the haircut altogether. Other barbers comb up and clip to find all the hairs, but thats a $40 barber in the city thing isn't it. So I just expect to trim them myself when I go. So for me it's a backup. $25.
Fantastic experience: This is what I look for in a barber, yeah they arent the best but for the price they are insanely quick and do quite a good job for the price. Yeah I could go to another place and pay $60+ dollar and sit there for almost an hour and get a 10/10 detailed haircut but these guys do pretty much almost the same job in 10 minutes. In and out quick and easy. a couple times they will mess up my beard when doing my fade where my hair begins by shaving a side like 2cm lower on one side than the other but it grows back quick so thats not that much of a concern.
Negative experience: Very rude and difficult to understand the barber's accent. Haircut is only mediocre, at best.
Fantastic experience: Best place for a decent and quick haircut!
Fantastic experience: Great barber all the guys are friendly
Fantastic experience: Good guys, good cuts.
Fantastic experience: Awesome cuts, may have found my new barber
Fantastic experience: WOW best haircut I've ever had. For the price it's extremely good value, very thorough, was quick and efficient no unecessary talking like alot of the other places I've been too. This place will definitely be my regular from now on! highly recommend to anybody that has trouble finding a good barber.
Fantastic experience: Guys very friendly and accommodate small boys choices of haircuts with a smile. Wait time not long.
