Hammer & Nails Cincinnati - Hyde Park

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place - check it out if you're a man looking for a haircut, pedicure or manicure.

Experiencia negativa: Bought a gift card, but in order to make an appointment, I need to provide a credit card, phone number on the fancy brochure does not work

Experiencia fantástica: Anna did a great job on my skin fade. I’ll be back for sure.

Experiencia negativa: This place will give you multiple bad haircuts and an even worse attitude. Would not recommend becoming a member here.

Experiencia positiva: The barber was friendly and I appreciated his efforts. However, this was a bad haircut for $50 plus tip. I tried it out. It's not my scene.

Experiencia negativa: I’m not sure why the barber didn’t admit he wasn’t the best one to cut my hair. It’s almost like he just took a stab at it and hoped for the best. I was not charged for this visit thankfully. My feedback would be - any place that charges $45 for a haircut - they should know how to cut every men’s hair type or have your staff listed with what cuts/lengths they’re experienced in on your website while booking. They did attempt to ease the blow by making me not pay even though at the end of the day, it’s not going to grow my hair back. AND I did receive great service when I went there for a pedicure on a prior visit.

Experiencia fantástica: I am only in Cincinnati a few months a year, and the person I used to go to when in town moved. I found Hammer and Nails on Google. I really liked the guys focus of the salon. The place is two stories of TVs, big comfy chairs, and even a bar. I made a morning appointment which was a mistake, next time I will make a later afternoon appointment and enjoy a beverage from the bar. I also heard that they do cigar happy hours on their patio occasionally in the summer. My haircut from Sade was excellent and efficient. I also used the new member special to grab a manicure which was a nice bit of extra pampering on a chilly fall morning and I think her name was Nikki(sp) did a wonderful job. While a bit more expensive than your quick service haircuts, you get what you pay for in my opinion. I will definitely be visiting Hammer & Nails anytime I am in town and need a haricut (and more).

Experiencia fantástica: Hammer & Nails does a great job creating an enjoyable and comfortable environment. As someone that doesn't usually take much time to slow down, this place is a special treat that I look forward to regularly. Caitlyn takes great care of me. She's awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: Posting for my son, Anna does an amazing professional job and provides high class service!

Experiencia fantástica: I scheduled a haircut. Dustin did a great job. I will go back.

Experiencia fantástica: Sade and Nicki are wonderful to work with. They each listen and makes the time fly by.

Experiencia fantástica: Upon arrival here I was greeted by Brittany. She clearly explained their membership program offers. Then escorted me on a tour of the facility. Then offered me an adult bererage -introduced me to Darby, who promptly seated me ensured I was comfortable then explained exactly what she was going to do. The next (45) minutes I felt like I was the “only” patron in the building. Darby’s firm yet gentle hand revitalized my feet & I decided then I’d return. Exceptional service professional courteous clean & very knowledgeable. Next month appointment already set! I had the premium pedicure

Experiencia fantástica: Haircut by Tom, pedi by Niki. Outstanding on both counts!

Experiencia fantástica: Was a mix up with my appointment so i didnt get a head shave but that might have been my fault. Regardless the staff was extremely polite answered all my questions. And Sade was fantastic and got my beard looking great. All in all a1 experience woukd highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Darby is awesome had a Mani and Pedi. I highly recommend Darby

Experiencia fantástica: Dustin is a beast and it was an absolute pleasure. Great cut and a great spot with a bunch of great dudes. No complaints.

Experiencia fantástica: Logan was excellent. He was very personable, provided a great experience, and a great haircut. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a barber in the Cincy area!

Experiencia fantástica: Dre did an awesome job — super detail-oriented and gave me exactly the cut I was looking for. Highly recommend!

Experiencia negativa: Trusted that I’d run into some “experts” that would give advice or share some opinions when I told them what my plan was. I shared that I wanted to grow my hair out but came to get a cut/trim and figure out a hair style to be more presentable while my hair continues to grow all sorts of ways. However, instead of trying to figure something out with the guy he rather offer comments like “you wanna grow it out but want a cut” instead of suggestions. Furthermore, this guy proceeded to mess up my beard (which he wasn’t suppose to be doing in the first place and two he claimed to have followed how it looked in a picture I showed, I ended up showing the picture again to prove the dude wrong and no apology either, so my beard was shaved off because of his mistake) regardless of mistaking the type of beard style, bro also made the line that goes from the bottom lip to the chin off centered and not just slightly, super off centered??? To make it worse bro finished up with zero after shave my face was burning. It was also obvious bro was upset I didn’t hold his hand and guide him through every step of the way of what I wanted done, because I wanted help deciding and suggestions for how to style it since I’ve never grown my hair out. Anyways, I left overpaying for what is probably the worst haircut and facial hair grooming service I have ever experienced. I’ve been to some crappy great clips and on military bases for haircuts, so I’ve made that mistake but as for this place, I thought I finally found somewhere I can consistently go to, sadly I was wrong. Other than their haircut/grooming services I was welcomed and offered complimentary drinks by the polite members of this place. I just couldn't recommended getting any service here.

Experiencia fantástica: Needed some beard work done for engagement pictures, and Thomas did not disappoint! It’s the best my beard has looked in years, and more importantly, the bride to be loved it too!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Hammer and Nails to all men who want a high quality haircut and above and beyond customer service! Caitlyn is amazing and truly an expert with her craft as a hairstylist and has impeccable memory from just seeing me twice! 5 stars is not enough to rate such an experience! I would give 100 ⭐️ if I could. Update: Caitlyn continues to execute flawless work and her customer service is top notch. Due to those attributes alone , I will be a customer for life at Hammer and Nails. Update 09/2025: Caitlyn is, in my opinion, their best stylist. It is easy to tell Caitlyn enjoys her work and has high standards to produce a quality cut. She never seems rushed and takes her time. She is a great conversationalist too!

Experiencia positiva: Logan did a great job with my fade! Also efficient and friendly!

Experiencia fantástica: Kerline was excellent! Quick and efficient and really understood what I wanted from vague mentions

Experiencia fantástica: the girls were great. super friendly and amazing work!

Experiencia negativa: Really nice place and they try hard with customer service, but my goodness the barber screwed my hair up so bad. I went to sports clips immediately after just to get someone to buzz my head to fix the mistakes. If you are going there to relax and have a good time I would recommend, but do not go for a superior haircut. It’s the worst I’ve ever had in my life.

Experiencia fantástica: Had an excellent experience with a manicure and pedicure with Darby. Highly recommend her.

Experiencia fantástica: Leeanna, Makaela and Niki were great to work with. Makaela especially did a fantastic job with my pedicure. This was a first for me so she was SUPER helpful and explained everything she was doing. Makaela also gave me some tips for taking care of my feet. Leeanna and Makaela both explained the services offered and packages available without being pushy. Good job ladies, pushy NEVER works with me. I will be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Sade was great. Friendly cool atmosphere. A little pricy but worth it if you’re looking to treat yourself to a quality cut.

Experiencia fantástica: Ajoni is always on time. Is friendly and has a great smile. Is easy to talk with. Professional and does a great job.

Experiencia fantástica: DeAndre was amazing. Moved to town a few months ago and received a few disastrous haircuts. Hammer & Nails is my new go to!

Experiencia fantástica: Mikaela was AMAZING! I will definitely request her again next time! Very easy conversation! And I’m usually very ticklish but she handled them with kid gloves.

Experiencia fantástica: The team at H&N is amazing. Tom is one of the best barbers I’ve ever had, a master of his craft and a great personality. Keep up the good work!

Experiencia fantástica: Caitlyn is amazing! Takes care of the details and is always upbeat and joy-filled! Hammer and nails is a unique experience. I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Never had a manicure or pedicure in my life. Was frankly uncomfortable with the idea. Now I don’t know why. Very relaxing and absolutely pain free. Signed up immediately for a membership.y feet, my hair and my wife are all happy! Strongly recommend for all guys like me who are apprehensive about nail and self care done by others. They are professionals and excellent at what they do. Try it once. You’ll be hooked! Keith was en excellent barber for em today. - he understood what I wanted and did exactly as I requested . Highly Recommend him.i recently had Logan too and he did a great job with my beard & hair.

Experiencia fantástica: She very meticulous. Thorough and Detailed. She pours her time and energy into your feet. Incredibly gentle. You won’t choose anyone else once you’ve experienced her aura and glow.

Experiencia fantástica: My first time going to Hammer and Nails, and it was unlike any other barber shop I’ve been to in the best way possible. The atmosphere is very nice and accommodating, I highly recommend seeing Sade, she is very professional and I’m so pleased with my haircut.I could not be happier!

Experiencia positiva: Nice haircut and input on style. Good manicure and information about membership. Five stars if membership options and credits were not so confusing.

Experiencia fantástica: Let me just say Brittanie is incredible! She takes her time and really makes you feel like she cares. It might take longer than others but there is no question that the finished product will be awesome. I got a facial and she really went above and beyond. Even conditioning the skin under my beard. Without a doubt I couldn’t recommend this place and Brittanie more!

Experiencia fantástica: Deandre was amazing and I will definitely be coming back.

Experiencia negativa: I joined for 1 month (April 2025) and received great service. Always tipped 50% or more for my services! I stopped going due to recent health problems. My card was charged today (July 31, 2025) for premium services ($169) without my consent. Is this a membership or subscription that is difficult to terminate! I haven’t used any services since late April this year! I’m totally displeased with this sales tactic!

Experiencia fantástica: So, ive been a member at Hammer and Nails for 2 years now and I'm still amazed at how great I feel after my manicure pedicure . Darby did an awesome job.

Experiencia fantástica: Dre was great, super cool barber and does a great fade! Will be back for sure.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience with both Thomas for a shave and a haircut. As well as a great Sports pedicure with Ajoni. Both were very professional and the experience was incredible

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome first time visit! A very professional and skilled crew. DeAndre was a pleasure to talk with and the cut was fresh, lineup crisp, say less!! Also shoutout to Darby for getting my nails done right thanks to the entire team. I will be back

Experiencia fantástica: always a great cut- Dre (DeAndre) always gives an excellent cut- bald fade looks great, I'll be back in a few weeks!

Experiencia fantástica: Ajoni is always great, she shows attention to details and never does a rush job.

Experiencia fantástica: Olivia did an excellent job! Very happy with my classic haircut and beard trim. Overall experience was friendly, professional, and she did an awesome job. Would definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Been going to hammer and nails for 2+ years now. Shout out to Thomas who gets it done, keeps it real, and has never caused me to spill my bourbon.

Experiencia fantástica: Anna, Brittinie, Deandre, Lena, Olivia… everyone I’ve had here has done a great job. Very professional and skilled at their craft.

Experiencia fantástica: I usually get a fade or drop fade and everyone always comments on how great it looks. Sade has been cutting my hair for a while now and she is great with textured hair. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Brittnie provided a memorable experience, attending to details during haircut and grooming experience. I would highly recommend her to friends and family. Great job.

Experiencia fantástica: Niki is a great nail tech. She took care of my feet and hands! Very personable and professional!

Experiencia fantástica: Place is great. Friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere, clean and fun. Caitlyn does a fantastic job every time.

Experiencia fantástica: 1st time at Hammer & Nails, let alone any type of salon. Thought I would try something different, and this place caught my eye because it had a bar. I had to see this and satisfy my curiosity. Stephanie took great care of my hair and trimming the beard. The neck and facial massage nearly put me to sleep. They do offer club packages but never pressured me to join. I will most likely try the manicure and pedicure soon.

Experiencia fantástica: What a great experience! Everyone was so welcoming, nice and cheerful. Brittnie is a true artist! She gave me the best haircut in my life, Being so personable, fun, creative, entertaining and professionell, she truly changed the experience of "Getting a hair cut" to to a wonderful, wholesome, fun and appreciative experience. I'll be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Caitlyn is awesome! Fun to talk to and very good attention to detail. I feel relaxed, looking good and ready to tackle the day after she has done her work!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve seen Caitlyn several times now, and she is always extremely personable and does an amazing job cutting my hair! She’s throughout and pays attention to detail. I’m pretty picky with my hair and she is on point every visit. She also kept me at ease when going from a long hair style to short. Keep up the stealer work!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent experience, the atmosphere was perfect All the staff that I dealt with were attentive to my needs, demonstrated a great deal of experience and made absolutely every attempt to make sure I was happy

Experiencia fantástica: Lena was amazing as was all the staff! I was a last minute appointment and they went above and beyond to accommodate! 10 out of 10 will recommend and will be continuing to go back!! Love the atmosphere and staff! Thank you Lena for an amazing hair cut and conversation!

Experiencia fantástica: Dre is the best fade in the city. Hammer & Nails is an excellent place. Great drinks, great vibes, great people.

Experiencia fantástica: DeAndre knocked it out of the park today! Honestly this is the best my beard has ever looked. I will absolutely be back next time I need to look my best. A+ experience all around!

Experiencia fantástica: Just got a cut from Logan at Hammer & Nails in Hyde Park, easily one of the best experiences I’ve had. I asked for a burst fade that blends into my beard (which isn’t easy with my curly hair), and he absolutely nailed it. The fade is clean, the blend is seamless, and he really took his time to get every detail right. Logan knows his clippers, and the shop itself has a great vibe. Highly recommend booking with him if you’re in the area and want a fresh, professional haircut.

Experiencia fantástica: Great visit with Deandre (Dre) and the staff. It was my first time and I’d definitely go back.

Experiencia fantástica: Sade always does a great job! I leave feeling good about myself and enjoy my Sade Style, every time!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Sade for three haircuts now, and I can’t say enough how great it’s been. She’s always very patient, listens to exactly what I want, and her haircuts are the best I’ve ever gotten. Great conversation, great cutting, very gentle. Amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: I have used Hammer and Nails for a few years now and have always been super happy with my service. I just moved from Columbus to the Cincinnati area after having the same barber (Tiffany) for three years. I was a little nervous to get a new barber at a new location but was thrilled to have Brittnie take care of me today. She was attentive, welcoming and very professional. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience at the Hyde Park location and will be returning regularly to see Brittnie moving forward. I highly recommend this location.

Experiencia fantástica: Tom did an outstanding job! I’ve been there a few times but I have to admit this is the first time I’m leaving completely satisfied. He did exactly what I wanted with little direction and it came out perfectly!

Experiencia fantástica: Dre, provided a great experience and timing of service was great! Niki and Anna were also great and provided exceptional experience. The services and atmosphere is amazing and you cannot miss with any of their memberships package!

Experiencia fantástica: This place is TOP TIER. I booked services here for my husband to enjoy a luxurious Father’s Day experience. My husband had a manicure and pedicure service performed by Niki and it was beyond our expectations. Not only was the service incredible, Niki was exceptional. She was kind, extremely talented and very informative. She educated us on the different types of packages and services that are offered at the establishment. My husband is someone who would prefer a manicure over a pedicure, but after his experience with Niki…he’s 100% sold on maintaining his upkeep with both services! In addition to this service, my husband received a facial performed by Anna. Another incredible experience!!! Anna was very welcoming and my husband’s skin looks incredible. He’s literally glowing! If you have a man in your life that you love…send them here ASAP!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best barber shop i’ve ever been to!! Lena cuts my hair on point every single time and she’s also a great person as well!! if you’re looking for a barber shop with consistency, this is the place for you!

Experiencia fantástica: She did an excellent job yet again !! Caitlyn did an amazing job. Thorough and timely. She’s kinda funny in a good way. Makes me laugh every time I get cut! From lumberjack to sophisticated gentleman

Experiencia fantástica: Hammer X Nail is awesome!! Jason welcomed me and gave me the tour PLUS options… Sade absolutely nailed my haircut!! Thank y'all so much!!

Experiencia fantástica: Caitlyn is always fantastic both in the city and in her warmth. Love coming in.

Experiencia fantástica: Lena was a great help really nice and kind and will definitely come back before leaving back home too California.

Experiencia fantástica: Been seeing Lena for last several visits. Always friendly, always personable, does a fantastic job and always goes the extra mile. Couldn’t be happier with my decision to join the club. Absolutely recommend. 10/10.

Experiencia fantástica: Best place out there. Always do a good job. Thomas is one of the best barbers in the game. Got a facial from Smiley. Shes super nice a d did a great job. So relaxing! Can't recommend the place enough

Experiencia fantástica: Caitlyn is fantastic, she takes care of my hair and beard and does a wonderful job. She always seems happy and is easy to talk to.

Experiencia positiva: Very good job and cleaned up nicely only complaint is few hairs left to clean up and seemed to have got nicked on back of neck with straight razor

Experiencia fantástica: Lena is the best stylist I have ever used. She did my hair at 18/8 until leaving there. Learning she is now on your staff was very happy news. I'll be your customer as long as she is there.

Experiencia fantástica: Tom did phenomenal, highly recommend requesting him for your cuts. He’s now become my permanent barber

Experiencia fantástica: The standard of excellence for men's grooming lies at Hammer & Nails in Hyde Park. Smiley is very personable and takes her time to ensure your cut is spot on. Niki is very professional and ensures your feet are in good condition and ready for sandal season. Thank you both ladies! Matt

Experiencia fantástica: Tom is my go to barber. Always a great experience and he takes pride in making sure everything is top notch.

Experiencia fantástica: Makaela is very friendly does good work and provides advice on ways to maintain your nails between visits. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: This is my 4th month of having a membership, and I’m loving it! I’ve been getting grooming services since the early 90’s,, to have a place like H&N to go to for my grooming needs (manicures, pedicures facials, Bourbon, cigars, Sports channels) is amazing!! If they would let me, I would move in.

Experiencia fantástica: I received a manicure and pedicure from Ajoni. My appointment got off to a rocky start because I inadvertently booked a haircut and a pedicure when I really wanted a pedicure and manicure. Anyway, after that mistake was resolved by the staff I received my desired services. I was very pleased with the results, particularly Ajoni’s attention to detail without prompting, and will likely return and try some of your other grooming services.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been scheduling with Tom for a few months now and he has been great! Would definitely recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: Outstanding experience, I definitely recommend Ajoni to anyone thinking of booking an appointment. She’s the only person I’ll allow to touch my hands and feet.

Experiencia fantástica: Big fan of this place. I have the Classic Club membership and it’s a great value for the money. I always feel welcome and sitting at the bar for a few minutes if I’m early is a nice touch. Kerline is my go-to artist and she’s spectacular. Update a year later. Still a great experience all around. Keith did a perfect job on a hair and beard cut. Will keep coming back.

Experiencia fantástica: Relaxed and professional! Great staff. Oliviagave a great haircut and Darcy’s manicure was the best( my first).

Experiencia fantástica: Tom is amazing, he’s professional and kind and easy to talk to. He’s very talented and always does a great job. Excited to come back again!

Experiencia fantástica: Logan did an amazing job and I will definitely be booking with him for next time!! He took time at the start to really understand what I was looking for and checked in with me through the service. He also has a great personality and easy manner.

Experiencia fantástica: I got my haircut by Smiley. She was very kind and did a great job cutting my hair! Definitely recommend her and Hammer + Nails!

Experiencia fantástica: Great stylists and atmosphere. Love this place! Caitlyn always does a great job with my hair. I hesitate using her name because it'll just make it harder to get an appointment with her but she deserves the recognition! Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for a beard trim and all your grooming needs. Sade is great and always leaves me looking well groomed!

Experiencia positiva: My stylist was amazing. I might come back because of her but they still charged me for the shampoo, conditioner, and scalp massage that I didn’t receive.

Experiencia positiva: Great place I’ve been 3 times now I even got a membership. Only issues I had so far I tried to pred med and facial in the same day online and it wouldn’t let me do all 3 so I came a got a facial from a young lady Smiley she was nice and professional but while she was given me my facial the music was driving me crazy ha it was like rock music if they could switch the music idk relaxing music like when get a massage or even soft jazz music r&b that would of been great but I will be back.

Experiencia fantástica: Tommy is the best in the game! I would highly recommend him to anyone! If you haven’t checked out hammer and nail, you need to experience it now!

Experiencia fantástica: First time haircut with Sade and she did a great job! I have had a couple beard trims before which were always exceptional. I would highly recommend!

Experiencia positiva: Caitlyn was Great. Staff was friendly and made me really comfortable, explained about the memberships since this was my first visit for the services offered at Hammer and Nail

Experiencia fantástica: Makaela is great! Very welcoming and engaging! She makes the treatments so wonderful and relaxing! My go to every two weeks!
