Acme Barber Shop: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Went to get a cut last week and Josh was great. He gave me a great fade and answered all my questions. Would strongly recommend him and would go back again
Thank you, we really appreciate your feedback !
Fantastic experience: I tried booking an 8:00 appointment online, but for some reason it didn’t go through. Even though I wasn’t officially on his schedule, Josh still took me in without hesitation. That alone says a lot about his professionalism and customer service. On top of that, he gave me a super clean mid bald fade exactly how I wanted it. His attention to detail was on point and the cut came out sharp. I highly recommend booking your next appointment with him.
Thank you , we really appreciate your feedback !

Negative experience: I bet these guys are good, but charging a full haircut that is already overpriced on a missed reservation made hours before on a non busy day is stupid, and makes it so I will not be going in for future haircuts
We are sorry to hear this. Please if you could provide us with who you booked your services with and more details about your services and will be able to look into this further. Hope to have this solved for you.

Thank you , we really appreciate your feedback!
Negative experience: This is got to be the most ridiculous barbershop ever I haven’t even gotten an appointment there yet because first off they don’t have a military discount which every barbershop should have. Second of all they require you to put your card to make an appointment. I walked in to make an appointment for the next day and they told me off saying they only make online appointments. This is extremely frustrating.
We are sorry to hear about your frustration with our booking process. Like many barbershop in Seattle, we use on line appointment system and require a card on file to help us manage our schedule fairly and minimize no- shows. At this time , we don’t offer specific discounts, but we strive to provide high-quality service. We truly appreciate your input and hope you’ll consider giving us a chance in the future.
Fantastic experience: Josh did an awesome job! He my dad’s beard and hair. He rocked it. My dad I 85 and he had fun!
Thank you for the great review!
Fantastic experience: Barbers are good and friendly. Clean shop. Appointments are available until later at night, last appointment ~9:30-10pm
Thank you, we really appreciate your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Josh was amazing! Came in after I had a bad experience at a sports clip and he was able to get me right with a skin fade.
Thank you , we really appreciate your feedback!
Negative experience: I asked to just leave the bangs below my eyes, a trim to my mullet/shag to keep it as a wolf cut, they chopped it and reset my bangs at the center, avoid at all costs. Taylor is chill tho go to him if you have to go here.
We are sorry to hear this. Please if you could contact us and will be able to look into this. Hope to have solved for you . Contact us at : [email protected] 206-788-6007
Fantastic experience: Josh did a wonderful job working my requests into a style that works for me and I really love it! We had a great conversation while he worked and I will be coming back.

Fantastic experience: Louie is a great barber. Cut my curly hair well and left my beard looking sharp. Couldn't recommend him more
Thank you , we really appreciate your feedback!

Thank you , we really appreciate your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Josh did a spectacular job with my hair, fade came out fantastic!
Thank you for the great review!
Negative experience: Had a 1:30 appointment with Louie that I had booked online and confirmed via text that morning, showed up at 1 just in case there was a chance to start a little early. I was greeted as I walked in and confirmed with a member of staff that I was there for a 1:30 appointment. 40 minutes passed, all of the barbers present started in with new clients. I stood up, contemplating writing my appointment info on the check in board and one of the barbers asked me about my appointment and who I was here to see. I confirmed 1:30 with Louie and I was then informed that Louie was not in today. So I left, the barber I was speaking to poked his head out the door while I was waiting at the crosswalk and mentioned that he had just called Louie and that a family emergency had come up so he was unavailable today, then he mentioned that if I wanted to wait another 30 minutes someone else could fit me in. Frustrated with the lack of communication and not wanting to commit more time to the already frustrating situation I declined the offer. The Buckhorn barber shop on Broadway was able to fit me in on short notice about an hour later and I got a fantastic haircut for the same cost that I would’ve paid at Acme. I never received a email from Louie about the need to cancel.
We are sorry to hear this . As contractors each barber have access to our their calendar. The barber you have appointment with he had something comes up he can’t make it to the shop and when we talked to him when you here he said have family emergency he can’t make it and he said he sent email to his clients from square appointment them know . We are sorry again to hear u had bad experience with us . Could you please contact us. Hope to have this solved for you. [email protected] 206-788-6007
Fantastic experience: Came in looking for a traditional cleanup and trim and left looking fresh. Left it up to the stylist and he knew his stuff. Definitely coming back again.
