Many have asked how I came up with the idea of V’s. The answer lies in my fond memories of going to the classic barber shops for a hair cut with my dad while growing up in Tucson. I keenly remember the sights and smells of Nick’s Barbershop and the real experience of being a boy among men. It was a place that we could go together and do more than get a hair cut. It was a place that made lasting memories.

My son was born in 1994 and I went looking for a barber shop that would let me make memories with him. I did not find the local barber shop that I was looking for in Phoenix, or anywhere else, so I decided to open one. This proved to be a challenge, as I am not a Barber and knew nothing of the industry. In 1999, the first V’s Barbers...

Fantastic experience: ristine at V’s Barber did an outstanding job on my hair. From start to finish, her professionalism truly stood out. She is caring, kind, and takes the time to listen, making sure every detail is just right. The result exceeded my expectations, and the experience was both relaxing and confidence-boosting. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about their craft and their clients, Kristine is exceptional. Highly recommended.

Sasha Gustafsson Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dino was amazing with my little three year old girl. He is a dad to five girls and it shows- he was so sweet with her, and her haircut is adorable. She had a bad haircut at a different salon and Dino knew exactly what to do to fix it and make a style that worked with her hair. His attention to detail and expertise is unmatched and he's the best we've ever had (and I have three kids). We will go back to Dino every single time.

Zachary Lewis Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Been here a handful of times and love every visit! I’ve tried a few different barbers, I have to say, Savana is the business!! I asked her for quite the random blend of styles and she killed it first try!!! And took her time trimming and shaping the beard. She’s my go to moving forward!

Michael Malkin Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I really was a little scared of going to a new place to cut my hair, I'm balding on top and can hide it because my hair puffs, Cat was wonderful, she put me at ease and cut my hair beautifully - can't really wait for my next appointment with her

Jerry Tubbs Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I finally made an appointment at V's after trying 3 other shops that apparently cut my hair with a hatchet instead of with scissors. I randomly got matched with Jessica....showed her my headshot...and she went to work. 15 minutes later she had me looking as good as I'm able to look without AI and filters....i will definitely be heading back

Richard Rohr Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: 1st time at a barbershop at least as an adult. Haircut and shave and goatee trim. Really a nice experience with a very pleasant and helpful stylist. Usually just go to the cheap places but I think those days might be over. I’d definitely go again

Lisa Parady Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dino was great. He did the cut exactly how my son asked and ran it by me first to make sure I understood what he was going to do.

Allyson Renkin Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I am not good at seeing hairstyles before they're cut and I wanted a lot more to come off, but the barber did a great job and seeing all his different collicks. In the end his hair looked a lot better than I expected!

Julian Parra Published on Google 1 year ago

Andreas Bungert Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Came in a bit early for an appointment. Was welcomed as I walked in and told it would just be a few minutes. 25 minutes past my scheduled time I had still not been taken while employees were cutting each other's hair. Ii simply walked out at that point.

Juan Carlos Aguilar Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to V’s for a while now and am always very impressed with the skill and expertise of their staff. Brittany cut my hair today and it was perfect! Exactly what I asked for, she was attentive and friendly and it was an A++ experience all around. Prices are also VERY reasonable for the quality and caliber of professional service provided by all the stylists. 10/10 would recommend!

Kate Syzdek Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: The worst experience. I regret booking for my fiancé. He never wanted his beard shaved and she never ask any questions. :( I just feel so bad and it was such a waste of money. Ughhhh I just feel bad he doesn't feel like himself and she just shaved off his face when he specifically said not trimmed to the face.

Jordan Fruchtman Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: We highly recommend Juliet. My teen is very sensitive when it comes to his hair and had some bad experiences with haircuts in the past, but Juliet gave him an awesome modern boys haircut and has been maintaining it ever since. I am very grateful to her.

Chunjai Clarkson Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’m a woman she/her and usually go to a salon but thought I would try a barbershop as a new experience. I have long hair and wanted the ends trimmed. I love the chair. You are practically horizontal and it’s much more comfortable for the neck than salon chairs. I had a woman barber who said that most of them are cosmetologists so they can take women. The head massage was nice and I was happy with the results after a wash, cut, hot face towel, quick blow dry and flat iron. The cost was under $70 including a 20% tip. The ambiance is nice, of course very masculine with interesting decor, beautiful sports photos of some of the greats, dark wood paneling and a TV for each station to watch the game. Mine had a football game on. The shampoo was woodsy smelling and pleasant. They also have an ice box with Pepsis and other drinks. My barber was Juliet who was very cool and nice. I probably will stick with my regular salon in the future because I prefer the flowery shampoos, but it was a good value and enjoyable experience.

Noah Ostanik Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Britanny at your Carlsbad store is my new barber! What a talented barber, I was given top flight service and the whole experience was like I had hoped for. Will be coming back regularly for Britanny's ability to make this old guy look young and new!

Ashley Hamiter Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Brittany was great! I brought my kid in and was on the fence about what we wanted, so she helped us decide what would look best on him! He loved it and so did I. We will definitely be back.

Tyler Goar Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Outstanding barbershop! When you make an appointment, they are ready for you when you arrive. Haircuts never take more than 30 minutes, so it's an easy in and out. All of the employees are very friendly and haircuts are excellent. This is the only barbershop I go to.

Fantastic experience: Juliete is the absolute bomb. It’s tough to find someone who has a great personality, and skills to consistently style a picky guy’s hair :-). Juliete knocks it out of the park every time!

Matthew Baxter Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Needed a new place after moving here, Savanna was the stylist, she’s no nonsense and got the job done. I got “The Works” which is a serious process, and totally worth it, if you have the time. I felt and looked about 5 years younger after I got out of the chair. Full range of products on sale, book ahead this place gets busy on weekends.

Scott Thompson Published on Google 2 years ago

Cale Jarnagan Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Showed up an hour early to my appointment due to MY mistake. They made some changes and fit me in immediately! Haircut was simple because I’m still growing my hair out but still a quick and great looking cut. I’m horrible with names but the women who was great at keeping conversation even with my awkward self… definitely will be back!

Ed Taylor Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My first cut with Brittany today was awesome! Talented, personable and funny! The perfect Trifecta! Highly recommended!

Cameron Toor Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been going to Juliet for a couple years now and she is absolutely incredible. It’s gotten to the point now where I don’t even have to tell her what I want done to my hair - she knows exactly what to do. Plus, for me, having a good conversation is always important and we always have great conversations. Whether it’s a tattoo artist or a barber, when I find someone I like, I stay loyal and Juliet is that person for me.

Thataway Vacations Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Brittany at V’s barbershop to anyone looking for a great haircut and a positive experience. I’ve been a client at V’s since their opening, so that in itself speaks to my satisfaction. However, it is a great barber that makes the difference and you’ll find that with Brittany. She is friendly and professional, enjoys a good laugh, is personable, and cares. Moreover she is certified to do shaves and beard trims, which takes an expert hand (and eye) to execute (not every barber at V’s can book this service).

Fenix Grossheim Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: i had a great time. she (Savannah) listened to me and did exactly as i asked. overall, a very positive experience and environment.

Daniel Overend Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Took my son here for his first haircut and the ladies made it an extra special occasion, and gave a great haircut. This will be our go to spot going forward.

Jen Merritt Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Jessika was awesome! My son was coming off of a bad haircut elsewhere, and she really took her time to understand what my son wanted, how he wanted his hair to lay, etc. She paused and conferred with us about each section to make sure we were on the same page. She is so sweet and very thorough! She rocks!!!
