Our comment from BarberSpot about Scissors & Scotch:

Scissors & Scotch in Charlotte offers a unique grooming experience that combines quality haircuts with a welcoming atmosphere and complimentary drinks. Customers consistently praise the skilled staff, noting that they provide excellent service right from the moment you walk in the door. Highlights from user reviews include:

  • Exceptional Service: Many patrons have mentioned their stylists by name, highlighting their attention to detail and personable nature, which makes the experience enjoyable.
  • Atmosphere: The relaxed vibe of the shop allows for great conversations and a comfortable setting that customers appreciate.
  • Value for Money: While some users mention the premium pricing, they often feel the overall value, including service quality and included drinks, justifies the cost.
  • Complimentary Drinks: The addition of a bar with a variety of beverages complements the grooming experience.

However, there have been some concerns regarding experiences where haircuts did not meet expectations or service missed certain steps due to timing issues. Despite this, Scissors & Scotch remains a highly recommended destination for anyone seeking a quality haircut in a laid-back environment.

Fantastic experience: Top notch service from the front of the house (lounge) to the barbering services. Highly recommend and hard to beat a free drink AND free parking uptown when you have the membership. Even if you're not here for a haircut, the bar selection is great and the prices are amazing relative to anywhere else uptown.

Andrew, we love to hear that! It is awesome that you had a top notch experience from the moment you walked into the lounge to the final haircut. We take a lot of pride in that full experience, so thank you for the high recommendation. See you back at Scissors & Scotch for the next round! ✂️

Justin Albers Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Very good experience. Chill vibe. A place where you can have real conversation, get a really quality haircut, and hang out and have a drink with other customers. I just moved to Charlotte for work, and went here for a haircut before my first day. The staff is incredibly friendly, the haircut was great, and the atmosphere was really strong. You pay a little bit of a premium, but honestly, not bad for what you get. For me, haircuts can be annoying. I've had an idea for a long time that there should be a device created that automatically cuts your hair the exact way you want it so that you get the same cut every time, you don't have to even talk to people to get it done or explain, and you're in and out. Since that still doesn't exist, Scissors & Scotch is the way to go. Rather than rushing in and out for an average haircut and then leaving with loose hairs everywhere and needing to go home and shower before you can do anything else ... you go to Scissors & Scotch and make it a fun outing. They do a full shampoo and hot towel treatment so you don't have the loose hairs afterward, they take their time and even go back and correct minor things they notice after the hair washing, and then they'll style it for you to ensure the haircut is exactly what you want (not a guessing game, where you get home later and wash and style it only to realize it's not really what you wanted). It may or may not be for you, but if you're a guy looking for a new spot to get your haircut, I'd highly encourage you to check this place out. You may even make a new friend at the bar like I did.

Justin, welcome to the neighborhood! ️ We love that you pointed out exactly what we strive for, turning a "chore" into a fun outing. Whether it is the hot towel treatment or grabbing a drink and making a new friend at the bar, we want every visit to Scissors & Scotch to be the highlight of your week. See you back in the lounge soon! ✂️

William Leonard Published on Google 3 months ago

Negative experience: Very disappointed in the haircut received. I walked out “butchered”. The lack of customer service was another major disappointment, when originally I had such high hopes for this establishment being my ‘Go To’. I’ll never return.

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Bill, we take our reputation and the work of our team very seriously, which is why this review is disappointing to read.

You arrived approximately 20 minutes late for a 30 minute appointment. In order to respect the guests scheduled after you, your original stylist was unable to complete the service without putting the rest of the day behind. Rather than cancel your appointment, we made a concerted effort to accommodate you with another experienced stylist so you could still be seen.

To publicly characterize the haircut as a “hack job” feels less like an honest assessment of the service and more like an attempt to justify frustration over a situation that resulted from arriving late. We stand behind the quality of our work and the professionalism of our team.

Running on schedule is not optional for us. It is how we ensure fairness and consistency for every guest in our chairs.

We understand you have canceled your membership, and are just fine with that. We are confident you will find a shop that better aligns with your expectations.

Negative experience: They burned the back of my neck, the lines look super unprofessional and it took over two weeks to heal, NEVER going back. They did not fully refund me for this terrible haircut either. They also continued charging me for a membership fee that I did not use, I literally feel like I got scammed. Stay away!! **Response to your comment: I’m a very busy man and totally forgot to call and complain because I have a lot going on, I had this picture taken the day of the haircut (new picture with time stamp attached).

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear that you left unhappy. Any time a guest feels uncomfortable or dissatisfied with a service, that is not the experience we want at Scissors & Scotch.

According to our records your last visit was around three months ago. Because of the time that has passed and because we were not contacted at the time of your service, there is unfortunately no way for us to confirm whether the irritation you describe came from a visit to our shop. If we had known about this when it happened, we would have invited you back in right away to take a look and make it right.

Regarding your comments about the membership, the program is a month to month membership, which is clearly explained at sign up and in the written documentation you receive. There is no scam involved. When you called to cancel your membership, our team processed the cancellation and refunded the most recent charge that same day in real time. If you had told us months ago that you wanted to cancel then, we would have been just as prompt at that time as well. We do not make cancellation a difficult or complicated process. I simple text message will do. What we can not do is refund past months simply because a membership was not used, especially since we text reminders to our members to encourage them to come in and take advantage of their benefits.

When you spoke with our lounge team the day before this review posted, we understand that you mentioned you would leave a negative review if we were not able to provide the refund you were asking for. It is disappointing to see that play out here, especially after we handled the cancellation and same day refund for you within our policies.

We truly are sorry that we were not the right fit for you, and we hope you find a shop that better matches what you are looking for in both service and membership options.

Paul Umansky Published on Google 6 months ago

Positive experience: Review: Scissors & Scotch Uptown Charlotte – A Mixed Bag of Service and Spirits I recently visited Scissors & Scotch in Uptown Charlotte for the first time, and the experience turned out to be quite the two-sided coin. On the service front, I have to give full marks. Despite my own late arrival, the staff were accommodating and flexible. My stylist, Kelly, was a standout: she adjusted the service tier to fit the time we had, and she absolutely nailed the personal touch. Kelly explained each step of the process and matched my vibe perfectly, whether that meant letting me doze off in the chair or chatting when I felt like it. On the service side, it was a solid five-star performance. Now, about the "Scotch" part of Scissors & Scotch—unfortunately, that’s where things fell flat. The selection was shockingly limited for a place that literally has "Scotch" in its name. The best they could offer was a handful of very basic bottles—think Johnny Walker Red, Glen Moray, and Monkey Shoulder—and when I asked for something slightly more premium, they didn’t have it. It was a huge letdown, especially since I was ready and willing to pay more for a quality pour. The staff at the bar, while friendly, didn’t seem knowledgeable about the spirits either. Overall, that aspect dropped my rating down to a three out of five. In summary, come for the excellent grooming service, but don’t set your heart on a top-shelf scotch experience. If the owners ever decide to live up to the name, I’d be thrilled to return and re-rate them.

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Thanks so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re thrilled to hear that you had a five star experience on the grooming side. Kelley is a true pro and we’re lucky to have her. It means a lot that her attention to detail and adaptability stood out during your visit.

As for the lounge side, we absolutely understand your disappointment and appreciate the honest feedback. When we first opened the shop, I was genuinely excited to feature a full lineup of unique and top shelf scotches. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, those bottles gathered more dust than interest. The reality is that Charlotte leans heavily into bourbon and locally crafted beers. That preference has shaped how we stock our bar, with a stronger focus on what the majority of our clients ask for: well made Old Fashioneds, creative craft cocktails, and a rotating tap of local brews.

That said, we hear you loud and clear. Scotch lovers are a rare but valued bunch, and your experience reminds us to revisit what we offer from time to time. We hope you’ll give us another shot, not necessarily for the scotch, but maybe to see if we can win you over with something else from the bar.

Thanks again for the thoughtful words and for giving us a try.

Negative experience: Super uneven haircut, expensive, haggle over promotions and was never offered a drink!

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that your visit did not meet expectations, especially regarding the haircut itself. That is never the outcome we want for any guest.

We do want to clarify that our team does not haggle over promotions. They were explaining the terms of the promotion to ensure it was applied correctly and fairly. We understand how that conversation may have felt frustrating, and we regret that it came across negatively.

Regarding the drink, complimentary alcoholic beverages are always offered with paid services. The only time alcohol cannot be served is when a service is complimentary, as required by North Carolina liquor laws. We apologize if this was not clearly communicated during your visit.

We take all feedback seriously and use it to improve both our technical standards and the way we communicate with our guests.

Fantastic experience: I’m new to Charlotte and started going to scissors and scotch because I live in uptown. I didn’t have many expectations going in, but the facility is very modern and well kept, and the haircut I received was top notch. I’m not crazy picky about my hair, but I most certainly got my expectations blown out of the water. The staff is welcoming and it really makes getting your haircut much less of a chore and more of an experience. You get what you pay for, and if you go consistently, the membership makes it well worth it. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: This is definitely my new place to get my haircut. Being new to the Charlotte area i felt welcomed as soon as I walked in. Didn't feel rushed. And you get a drink with your haircut. Deja was amazing i definitely recommend her. Will at the bar was spot on with my drink.

Negative experience: Barber was kind but I was never shown back of my head. Went home to have my wife tell me that the barber didn’t blend it well. I then went to Uptown Cuts to get it fixed. See before and after pics. Very upset that they would allow their clients to walk out the shop like this. If it hadn’t been for my wife I would’ve shown up to the wedding looking like a fool!

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Really sorry to hear this and I appreciate you taking the time to lay it all out. While I’m glad the barber was kind, the end result clearly didn’t meet expectations, and that’s on us. We absolutely should’ve shown you the back and made sure you felt good about the cut before you left the chair. That’s basic, and we dropped the ball.

This isn’t the standard we stand behind, and I’m addressing it directly with the team. You should never have to second guess your haircut, especially before something important like a wedding. I’d like to make this right if you’re open to it. Let me know and I’ll personally make sure your next visit is handled properly start to finish.

J Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Honestly I got there late (don't do that) and they had to have Kelly cut my hair and Deja trim my beard. They were both excellent. I really enjoyed my visit. Competitive pricing but leave yourself a few extra minutes to park. They do validate for the parking structure next door to the shop. I didn't get the receptionist's name but she was really nice as well.

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Appreciate the honesty and the solid review. Even with the late start, glad Kelly and Deja were able to tag team and still give you a top-tier experience. They both know how to deliver. Thanks for pointing out the parking too — always smart to give yourself a buffer. We’ve got your validation covered and the front desk team will always welcome you with a smile. Looking forward to next time ✂️

Sam Published on Google 7 months ago

Negative experience: The shop has a nice setup, but what really kept me coming back was one great barber. Unfortunately, over time, I noticed a lot of turnover with the rest of the staff—new faces every few months—which made the overall experience feel inconsistent. In the end, I decided to cancel my membership and continue supporting that barber directly. I hope the business finds a way to better support and retain its talent.

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Appreciate you taking the time to share this and for your support while you were with us. We’re proud to have been voted the best barbershop in Charlotte and that doesn’t happen by accident — it’s because we hold the experience to a higher standard, every single visit. The truth is, not every stylist or barber is willing or able to maintain that level, and when that’s the case, we make changes to protect the client experience.

That said, we get it — relationships matter in this industry. And when someone moves on, whether it’s a personal life change or a career shift, it’s felt more deeply than in most businesses. That connection is what makes this craft so personal.

No hard feelings at all. We respect your decision and wish you and your barber the best. If you ever decide to come back, we’ll be here, still raising the bar.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing experience. I enjoyed all of the services they provided. My stylist was Flor, she did an amazing job at making sure to understand exactly how I wanted my hair and beard. Also a shout-out to Jessica for making a fantastic Old Fashioned at the bar. The services may seem pricey at a glance but you are definitely getting your money's worth. In a time where prices are going up everywhere, for seemingly the exact same service as 15 years ago, you definitely can't go wrong with spending a little bit more, for a much better haircut experience!

Fantastic experience: If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Scissors & Scotch in CLT is hands down the ultimate destination for an unparalleled and upscale grooming experience. The moment you step inside, the stylish atmosphere sweeps you off your feet and puts you in total relaxation mode. TeeJay, the amazing manager, leads an incredible team that truly goes above and beyond for every guest. The staff is not only friendly but genuinely attentive, making you feel like an absolute VIP from the moment you walk in! Also, let's not forget about Willie, the bartender—his craft cocktails are simply out of this world! There's nothing quite like enjoying a perfectly mixed drink while you wait, adding an extra splash of fun to the whole experience. The vibe here is both classy and comfortable, ensuring that every visit feels like a special occasion. I can't recommend Scissors & Scotch in CLT enough! Huge thanks to TeeJay, Willie, and the entire team for consistently turning every appointment into a delightful adventure!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Deja for about three years now, and following her to Scissors & Scotch was hands down the right move. I was a little unsure about the extra 20-minute drive (especially on the night of a preseason game), but it ended up being totally worth it. Yeah, I paid more than I usually do for a haircut, but the whole experience made it worth it. I even showed up 30 minutes early and normally that’s super awkward, but the front desk staff were awesome and hanging out at the bar while I waited was a nice bonus. Overall, great vibes and a great cut.

Scissors & Scotch

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear Deja continues to deliver the kind of cut and care that keeps you coming back—even with that extra drive (on game night, no less!). ✂️

At Scissors & Scotch, our goal is for every visit to be more than just a haircut. From the moment you walk through the door, we want it to feel like an open-door S&S experience—welcoming, elevated, and enjoyable at every step. Whether you’re at the bar, chatting with the front desk, or in the chair, our team is here to make sure you feel taken care of.

We truly appreciate your trust and loyalty, and we can’t wait to keep delivering that experience every time you visit!

Fantastic experience: Great stylist! I had gotten the 25 year treatment and it was definitely a spa day for me, Ashley was the one who took care of me and if she kept going with the shoulder massage I would of fallen in love. Already booked my next visit and can’t wait to relax again. They also make men feel welcomed and cared for offering 50% off at the bar for men’s mental health awareness and Tay is a great conversationalist!

Negative experience: Can’t help but be irritated. I’m new to the area, and online it says they take walk ins. I drove 45 minutes out of my way to cut a cut just to be told you need to book an appointment. I was very excited to come in and see what Charlotte has to offer, just to be turned away. Had I been able to get a cut and it turn out well, I’d make the trip every time. Not coming risking it as this was a massive waste of my time.

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

I’m truly sorry for the frustration you experienced on your first visit to Charlotte and to our shop. You’re correct that we do accept walk-ins; however, we prioritize guests who have booked in advance, and on very busy days—like the one you visited—our schedule can be fully booked, which unfortunately means we can’t take additional walk-ins at that moment.

I completely understand how disappointing it must have been to make such a long trip and be turned away. We’d love the opportunity to change that first impression. If you’re willing to give us another try, I’d like to personally invite you back for a complimentary haircut so you can experience the level of service and atmosphere we’re known for.

Please reach out to me directly at [email protected] so we can arrange your visit.

Thank you for sharing your feedback—it helps us improve, and I hope we can welcome you back soon.

Fantastic experience: First time here. The bartender (I unfortunately did not catch her name) was a great welcome to the place. I showed up way to early, and she gave me a beer and chatted with me until it was time to go back. Natosha cut my hair, and got it exactly how I wanted it for a summer cut. She also took the time to explain what she was doing and why, since this was my first haircut after growing my hair out! Thanks S&S, will definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: Definitely one of the best barber experiences I have had. Their place is very inviting and their customer service is top notch. Being able to have a drink while waiting on your appointment makes the experience worth while. My barber did an amazing job when it came to my beard. He had a vision that really was able to bring my beard to life. I will definitely be going back to experience this top notch service.

Adam M. Published on Google 11 months ago

Negative experience: They’ve officially priced me out of a haircut with a fade. lol. Basic haircut is $55, plus $22 for a FADE, plus a 20% tip. Completely insane. That’s $91 for a haircut with a fade plus a tip. Totally bizarre. And they don’t use a foil shaver…?

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Thanks for your feedback—we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. We understand that our pricing may not be the right fit for everyone, and we’re sorry to hear you felt the value didn’t match the cost.

At Scissors & Scotch, our prices reflect the quality of our services, the skill of our barbers, and the overall experience—from the consultation to the precision cut, fade, and relaxing finish. The additional charge for a skin fade is due to the extra time and detail required. It’s a more technical service than a standard fade, which can typically be done more quickly with clippers and doesn’t incur any added cost.

As for the foil shaver—we deliberately choose not to use them because we believe a straight razor delivers a cleaner, smoother result. It also provides a more refined and elevated experience, which is what we strive for in every service.

We’re always looking for ways to improve, and your input helps. If you’d like to chat more or give us another shot down the road, we’d be glad to welcome you back.

Pro tip: Bring your parking slip from the parking garage right next door with you, They validate parking!!!!

Cocktails were on point and was service!

Fantastic experience: If you are “old fashion” or a “cut” above the other men, then there’s no reason for me to “massage” this message. Men, bring your ladies and she’ll lounge comfortably with a drink or two. And then when you are finished being pampered, take her out on a date looking (and feeling) like you deserve her.

Hi Antonio! So glad that you got that vibe from our shop. Self care for guys is about downtime. I chance to decompress, relax, get cleaned up, have a nice cocktail and feeling great. We strive for that with each and every S&S experience. I would debate though that there is nothing trivial about a haircut. I good haircut can make your day, a bad one....well not so much. Have a good week and hope we see you again soon!

Negative experience: I had high hopes going into my appointment with Alexis, especially after showing a clear reference photo of the style I wanted. Unfortunately, the end result didn’t match the look I requested—it didn’t even come close to the picture I showed. That was disappointing, especially since I chose this stylist specifically for that style. I was also 10 minutes late, which I understand may have affected timing, but I was surprised that the hair wash, hot towel, and neck clean were all skipped . These are basic parts of the service that I still expected, even with the slight delay. Overall, the experience didn’t meet my expectations, both in terms of service and results. I hope this feedback helps improve client communication and consistency moving forward.

Scissors & Scotch
Scissors & Scotch

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to hear the experience didn’t meet your expectations.

That said, I do want to clarify a few things. You arrived about 10 minutes late to your appointment, which significantly shortened the time available for your service. Our team works hard to stay on schedule out of respect for all guests, and unfortunately, that delay meant we had to adjust the experience to avoid running into the next client’s appointment. The wash, hot towel, and neck clean are included when time allows — and we typically can deliver the full experience when appointments start on time.

Also, based on the reference photo you provided, it looks like you were going for a full transformation. That kind of cut requires extra time and usually needs to be booked as such. If we had known in advance, we would’ve happily adjusted the booking to give Alexis the time she needed to fully execute that look.

I understand you’re disappointed, but in fairness, consistent last-minute cancellations and showing up late does make it challenging for us to provide the top-tier service we aim for.

That said, we appreciate you giving us a try, and I’ll go ahead and cancel your membership. Wishing you all the best in finding a shop that better aligns with your needs.

Julian Flamer Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I walked into Scissors & Scotch frowning, and left smiling. That should tell you everything. From start to finish, this was one of the most magical grooming experiences I’ve ever had. The haircut was sharp, clean, and tailored perfectly to my style. But the real standout was the straight razor shave. It wasn’t just a shave, it was a ritual. Hot towels, precision, and attention to detail that turned something routine into something relaxing and even therapeutic. I genuinely felt like time slowed down for a bit. The vibe is upscale but comfortable, like a lounge you never want to leave. The staff were personable, professional, and genuinely seemed to care about delivering an excellent experience.

Positive experience: I really wanted to treat myself after my birthday, and this place delivered! I love the vibe. My barber Megan was super nice and kept the conversation going without too much awkward silence. The scalp massage was the tops. Highly recommend. Only critique is the somewhat limited bar and tiered liquor shelves (understandable for the "free drink with every cut" model however).
