Fantastic experience: I really like this barbershop a lot, the atmosphere is great; very calm & ordely. Chavez is great, my favorite barber in the twin cities.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to David for almost a year now and have loved every bit of it. Before this I was jumping around from barber to barber trying to find someone who wouldn’t absolutely screw me up. David understands what I want even though I might be very vague, and he always asks me my opinion throughout the haircut to make sure that I get exactly what I want.

Fantastic experience: David from StudioAZ is a master of his craft. Hands down the best barber in town. He is consistent, skilled, and detail-obsessed. I can always count on getting a great cut every time I come in.
Fantastic experience: Albe is the man! I really appreciate his attention to detail. I love the fade he does for me every time!
Fantastic experience: just had my first haircut with Joshua and it’s genuinely the best cut I’ve had in years. The consultation alone told me I was in good hands—he asked the right questions, really listened, and made thoughtful suggestions without ever pushing anything I wasn’t sure about. He took his time, paid attention to every detail, and clearly knows his craft. The end result? Exactly the haircut I had been trying (and failing) to get elsewhere for a long time. Looks great, feels great, and nailed the style I was aiming for. Couldn’t be happier. Ten out of ten. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: David gives a fantastic cut, is great at asking the right questions to make sure I'm getting the cut I'm looking for- plus an overall great vibe, highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: albi is awesome barber from my perspective he is the best perfectionist excellent barber.
Fantastic experience: Anna has been my barber for decades. She does top class work. I love her haircuts. I look sharp. We have fun conversations too that are very natural and enjoyable. A top rating.
Fantastic experience: Been getting my haircut here with David for about a year now, and have gotten a great cut every time! He's very friendly and easy to talk to, plus his schedule is very flexible. Hands down the best barber I have had, would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Albe is the man! His Spanish is better than his English -- but despite the language barrier, Albe knows exactly what I want. The execution, professionalism, & overall experience has earned this barbershop a 5-star rating (& a new regular @ Studio AZ).
Negative experience: I booked an appointment online for a men's haircut. When I showed up on time, the business owner told me that the barber hasn't made it in and probably won't for the rest of the day! HOW DO YOU HAVE A BARBERSHOP WITHOUT ANY BARBERS? What a Hoot! Guys, this is NOT a serious business. There are plenty of better places to get a haircut in MN.
Fantastic experience: Logan is wonderful! Very clean, welcoming shop!
Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Studio AZ enough! Chavez runs an amazing shop with an A+ team. I typically visit Chavez once a month and always look forward to not only the amazing cut, but the conversation as well. If you’re looking for one of the best shops in the cities, look no further! Also, Drew is a dog!! Great cuts and extremely personable.
Fantastic experience: Chavez at Studio AZ is hands-down the best!!! He consistently delivers the perfect haircut every single time. The shop itself is clean, trendy, and inviting. You can tell they care about creating a great experience from the moment you walk in. Chavez is awesome to work with and truly takes pride in his craft. Highly recommend him and Studio AZ!
Fantastic experience: Great haircut! David was great to work with- understood my needs and improved my look!
Fantastic experience: There are so many salons in the city and it's hard to find one with consistency. After going for the first time, this is the only place I'll go. Quick, great environment, easy online scheduling, and David is the best stylist I've worked with. 5 stars for sure.
Fantastic experience: Liam was professional, communicative, and delivered a fanatic haircut. The studio was well kept and clean. 5 out of 5!
Fantastic experience: I had been going to the same barber for 8 years straight, David has changed that permanently. He does outstanding work in an efficient manner. My hair is brutal to cut. He got it figured out immediately and gave me a fantastic scissor cut. Super friendly guy, great vibe in there and at a reasonable price too.
Fantastic experience: David did a great job explaining my options for a new look. And a great cut!
Negative experience: I’ll keep it straightforward. Overpriced and barber was rough on my hair. Not exaggerating, I swear. My barber was Abel and he kept pulling my hair to my the point my eyes were being lifted. Never had a barber comb my hair after mousse applied to my hair? That hurts like hell. Had hair on my right leg but thankfully he blew it off but there’s still some. Then charged me $52??… Gaslighted myself cuz I thought it was $45. Ended up paying $5 for tip because common courtesy. So in total $57. I regret not asking why it was $52. Another barber saw the price after we couldn’t scan my card for the payment so there’s my witness. If that was the tip, he never told me. Idk man….been to many affordable barbershops and there are better places. Maybe it’s the barber, bad day? Going to ask a different barber to fix it. Im sorry trust me, I’m not rude. I’m just simply telling the truth. Below is what I wanted vs what I got. Drove home very pissed. I’m just laughing at my experience not gonna lie.
Fantastic experience: Albe does an excellent job every single time. Very punctual and detail-oriented. He never fails to consistently make a fresh fade or cut.
Fantastic experience: Liam is hands down one of the best barbers I’ve been to. He’s surgical with the shears, especially clean with tapers, and really knows how to work with curly hair. What I appreciate most is how easy he is to communicate with he listens, understands style, and always gets the cut right. If you’re looking for a barber who combines skill with attention to detail, Liam’s your guy.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Studio az. Really nice place with cool people. I came in not really knowing what I wanted but Logan helped me find a style and did a great job.
Fantastic experience: This is a great place to get a high level cut the people here is very profecional, any barber you pick is 100% guaranty, I personally like to go with Joshua great barber but a great guy as well
Fantastic experience: Studio AZ is a great barber shop in a greet location. Elevated feel inside along with elevated service from Elle! She does an excellent job with a men’s fade cut. Would highly recommend you choose Elle for any type of cut you may be looking for!
Fantastic experience: albe was great. he gave me a fresh new cut and beard trim. highly recommend him!
Fantastic experience: Drew is the reason I keep coming back to this barbershop. Easy going, experienced, and talented person who truly cares about his craft and clients. Man is a true artist!
Fantastic experience: David truly cares about each session that he has consistently cutting high quality haircuts. He’s also a great guy, easy to talk to and has always made me feel comfortable. I’ve been getting my hair cut by David for about 10mo.
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and very professional. Joshua was very helpful and always delivered great results. Have been here three times and could not recommend more!
Fantastic experience: Whole crew is great and they really take care of you, especially for guys with mid length and short cuts (best modern mullet in MN). Logan is a rockstar; try and book him
Fantastic experience: Logan! He did an amazing job—stylish, sharp, and exactly what I wanted . He worked with a lot of patience and perfection, making sure every detail was on point. I really appreciate the time and care he put into the cut. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows their craft, I highly recommend him
Fantastic experience: Started going here after David moved from his last location. His work is exemplary and is unbelievably nice and understanding. Super chill and goes above and beyond. I have a pretty big beard and he cleans it up and makes both the haircut and my beard look professional. I strongly recommend seeing David. The establishment is super chill and clean.
Fantastic experience: Been coming here for a few months now and have never been disappointed, Chavez always got me right
Fantastic experience: First time today and great experience. Albe was my barber and he was quick and efficient and got it done in a great manner. On time and professional. Didn’t know this placed existed normally go to Great Clips honestly but paying a bit more for good stylists and barbers is worth it. Especially this place. Great area too little hidden but maps should direct you right down there by North Loop Green. 100% my new place.
Fantastic experience: Albe is the best. I always feel great walking out after my haircut. Albe takes his time and makes sure everything looks good. My only complaint would be finding parking especially during a Twins game. Not a knock on them though
Fantastic experience: Truly a genuine experience. Felt like a brand new man walking out! Not only a fantastic haircut, but a fantastic conversation as well. I will definitely be coming back here!
Fantastic experience: Drew is the man to go to. Had my gf telling me that this is the best haircut I’ve ever gotten, maybe your significant other will say the same thing
Fantastic experience: It had been quite a while since I had my hair cut since I literally went to get my hair cut directly after leaving the hospital after weeks of being in there, so there was a lot to work with. Also, I had no clue what I wanted, so I had asked David (my stylist) to do something he thinks would look good on me. He washed my hair, and then started to cut away. Once done, I was beyond happy with how it looked. I have been flaunting around so everyone can see how good it looks lol. I’m very happy that David was my stylist. He was very friendly, and asked lots of questions about me, which made me feel like an important client, and besides that, we have the same name, so that makes everything even better. I do plan on keeping him as my stylist, and have him do whatever he wants every time I go in. I am very happy I found studio AZ, and have no plans to go anywhere else. Thank you, David for boosting my confidence!
Fantastic experience: I’m glad I came here, I was recommended to come here by two people and I was paired up with Drew who cut my hair perfectly and now I get so many compliments!
Fantastic experience: I found my forever barber! Liam has been cutting my hair for almost a year now. Every time has been a fantastic experience. He’s so professional and kind. And my hair looks great as well! The space is welcoming and calming but at the same time lively and energetic. I highly recommend AZ in the North Loop!
Fantastic experience: I got a haircut with Liam and had a great experience. He did an awesome job and was super kind and warm- would definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: I come here for Joshua as he gives some of the best cuts in the metro area. Highly recommended barber.
Fantastic experience: I waited 6 months before getting a much needed haircut. Liam did a great of keeping the hair on top long and the shaved around the edges. I loved it and it will be my new hairstyle.
Fantastic experience: Drew is the curl master and gave me the best hair cut of my life. My hair was a bit out of control after letting it grow for a while so it definitely needed some work. I was also a bit nervous going to a new barber so I wasn't sure what to expect. For the longest time, I never knew how my hair should truly be cut and this guy cracked the code. I have only ever had a handful of people cut my hair and they did a fine job but when you get a haircut that makes you look in the mirror and say “wow, I look good”, you know you found the right barber. He exceeded my expectations and it came out freaking amazing. He was great to chat with and really helped me understand a lot more about my curly hair and how to take care of it better.
Fantastic experience: Very nice atmosphere. Liam was very punctual. He asked how I would like my hair cut and did a wonderful job. We chatted during the haircut and caught up on what has been going on with our lives since we last saw each other.
Fantastic experience: David is a fantastic guy to cut your hair. I have been going to him since his days at Gent. He is attentive to my needs and incredibly helpful with suggestions if you are not sure what to do with your hair.
Fantastic experience: Albe did an amazing job - gave me exactly what I was looking for and offered his thoughts along with respecting what I was hoping for. I'm excited I found a regular spot for a beard trim.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Joshua for a while now and he always delivers consistent, great haircuts. I’ve mainly gotten mullets and he nails it every time. Super easy to talk to and knows exactly what he’s doing. Definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Elle for almost 14 years. She is that good! I found her on Google reviews so I think I should pay it forward and let you know as well. Easy to get in to see and takes great notes around my last service. I hate changing barbers so she makes it easy.
Fantastic experience: Went here after trying many barbers and finally found one I’m sticking with. Highly recommend going to Drew. Did exactly what I wanted, told me how he was doing it, and gave ideas he thought would look better and it did. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Love the work these guys do on my husband's hair. Clean, professional, friendly. They took their time to talk about what they were doing and why. You're not just another cut to complete.
Fantastic experience: GO TO ALBE EVERYTIME!!! He is probably the best barber I went to in my whole entire life, he literally told me exactly what haircut would look good for my head shape and it felt super refreshing in the end. If you need a Fade then go to ALBE!! I will come back!!!
Fantastic experience: Studio AZ is super convenient for me as its right by work and easily walkable in the north loop. I stared coming here when David moved over from his previous location, and have always been thrilled with the quality of the cut and service that I get!!
Fantastic experience: I have a hard type of hair and Joushua Made it look easy and my head can breath again 10/10
Fantastic experience: Albi was a great hair stylist he was very friendly to my son who was getting a haircut. He did a great job overall and took his time getting the details right

Fantastic experience: Been going to David for years since Gent, now happy to continue going to him at Studio AZ! Very clean shop, great lighting and easy to book times with. For a great experience I suggest booking with David he’s my guy ✊
Fantastic experience: I now go to Drew every single time for haircuts. He cuts my hair like an expect, is an incredible guy, and someone I recommend to everyone.
Fantastic experience: I get my hair cut every 2 weeks by Drew and he is fantastic. Every cut has been awesome, the environment is great, and overall love my experience. I have also gotten cuts from Logan and Chavez - both of which are fantastic barbers as well. I recommend AZ to everyone.
Fantastic experience: Drew is outstanding. I have gone through six different stylists after moving to this city and none could replicate my old haircut, as simple of a men’s cut as it was. Drew looked at the pictures I sent and was the first person to actually listen and understand what I wanted. I’m so relieved and will not be doing to anyone else besides Drew from hereon out. Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: I've been getting my haircut by Erin for about 8 years and am amazed by how great the result is every time I have an appointment with her!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Drew for months now, and every single time he nails the haircut. Seriously, this guy is a master with the clippers. He’s got an eye for detail and always knows exactly what I want—even when I can’t explain it well. Beyond just the haircuts, Drew is an awesome guy to talk to. The conversation is always top-notch, whether we’re talking sports, life, or just cracking jokes. Every visit is a great experience, Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Drew is the man! I've been searching for a go to barber for a long time and straightaway he made me feel right at home. He took time to really listen to what I was looking for and even explained some things he was doing in the process. The whole process was a breeze and I knew instantly that I was in good hands. The cut was so clean and the experience was so pleasant. To anyone looking for an awesome experience, clean and ACCURATE cut, I highly recommend Studio AZ. The environment was awesome and welcoming and everyone there seemed so professional, competent, and friendly. Special shoutout to Drew, I think I've finally found my barber!
Fantastic experience: I greatly appreciate the work they do here! It is a beautiful shop and has great barbers. I always leave happy with my new haircut. The barbers are skilled in any styles and even helped me find the style that works best for me!

Fantastic experience: This place is top tier. Drew has cut my hair since I started coming here. He knows exactly what will look good on you and has very good advice. The vibes here are great and the other barbers always make sure that I’m taken care of. Don’t hesitate to give Studio AZ a try!
Fantastic experience: Joshua always does an amazing job! Whether you know or don’t know what kind of haircut you want he will make sure it looks great!!
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best barber experience I’ve ever had. Liam listened attentively and delivered exactly! 10/10
Fantastic experience: High quality haircut in the North Loop. Chavez is very talented and truly cares about his work. Also efficient with time, in and out in 30 mins
Fantastic experience: Love this place. I have been here twice so far and both times have been nothing short of perfect. The studio is super clean and has a really cool vintage aesthetic to it. (My barber told me it’s actually classified as a historical building). My barber, Drew, is excellent at what he does and I would recommend him for anyone looking for a new barber. He keeps his workspace really clean, delivers a great cut that’s exactly what you’re looking for, and is such an easy dude to talk to. I’m definitely gonna be back here a third time and more!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Elle for 3 months now, and she has been great. She always does exactly what I ask for, and I can count on her to get it right every time. Super dependable, and I never have to wait for my appointment. If you’re looking for a reliable barber who consistently delivers great cuts, Elle is the one to go to.
Fantastic experience: Albe is the man when it comes to a haircut. Does it perfect and is as artistic as he his clinical in his execution. Will come back again and again and again. Best barber in the state
Fantastic experience: Drew has been my barber for over the past year after trying out a few other places in the area over the last couple years. It’s the best haircut I’ve gotten in Minneapolis and Drew is a great barber and person. Can’t recommend the place enough!
Fantastic experience: I have had the pleasure of working with Logan at Studio AZ, and I can confidently say he is a true professional. He takes the time to listen to his customers’ needs and ensures that every detail is addressed. Logan consistently delivers outstanding results, and his work is always of the highest quality. Studio AZ itself is always clean, and the staff is friendly and welcoming, creating a great atmosphere every visit. Highly recommend Studio AZ for anyone looking for top-notch service.
Fantastic experience: My Barber Logan was great and did an amazing job. I have gotten so many compliments on my hair. I’m excited to have found a place I can get my hair done regularly!
Fantastic experience: Have gotten haircuts from both Logan and Flora and they both crushed it! One before my own wedding and one before my best friends and received multiple compliments on both occasions. 10/10.
Fantastic experience: A good barber should feel like he has your back and keeps you looking young and fresh. Hit up Joshua I make a 2 hr round-trip everytime to come see him, very clean work
Fantastic experience: I got my haircut here a few weeks ago for the first time, everyone was very nice and friendly. I got my haircut by David. I wasn’t entirely sure what I wanted, I showed him a few reference pictures and David was able to tell me what would work/look good and compliment my frame. The prices are very reasonable. I couldn't be any more pleased!!
Fantastic experience: Drove 45 miles to get an absolute disaster of a haircut fixed, and Albe did an AMAZING job. He is a master barber and really knows how to work the contours of the head and the angles of growth to produce a very consistent and balanced cut. Albe’s attention to detail is one of his value props. The shop itself is very well located, clean and has a good atmosphere. All clients appeared to be happy, and the barbers I saw were clearly professional and skilled. I highly recommend both Albe as a barber and Studio AZ as a shop for a fantastic haircut experience.
Fantastic experience: AZ Barbershop has a welcoming atmosphere. I got my hair done by Albe Styles; he is very consistent in delivering great results and makes sure my hair looks its best. He nails it every time since I've known him.
Fantastic experience: David is a great barber - both for me and for my kids (ages 14 and 9). Very good at what he does, also great conversation and wonderful with my kids.
Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience with David! He gave both me and my son great haircuts. He’s skilled, attentive, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire process. My son felt at ease, which is a big plus. The attention to detail and quality of the cuts were top-notch. Highly recommend David for anyone looking for a professional and friendly barber!
Fantastic experience: Chavez was great! He made sure that I got the haircut I was looking for and before doing anything he made sure to tell me what he was doing and how it would make the cut look better. Also the atmosphere in Studio AZ is very professional and if you come here you’ll be sure to get what you’re looking for. I have curly hair and he knew how to cut it to make it not only look good going out the door but also make it look good in the future as it grows out. 5 stars would come back again.
Fantastic experience: I've been coming here for a haircut for last few months. The team is professional and friendly. Flora has been cutting my hair and does an amazing job! Keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: Studio AZ is great! Highly recommend. Comfortable, warm atmosphere in the North Loop. Very thankful for Elle, who has been expertly cutting my hair for years.
