Hudson / Hawk Barber & Shop

Experiencia fantástica: Barber took his time and listened to my request.

Experiencia negativa: I had a very poor experience at Hudson Hawk, and I do not recommend this barbershop. From the start, everything felt extremely rushed. During the blending behind my ears, the barber nicked me almost immediately, and it hurt enough that I said “ouch” out loud. While they lightened up slightly after that, they continued to use excessive pressure with both the clippers and the trimmers. When lining me up, the trimmers were pressed so hard against my skin that it felt more like scratching than shaping. The pressure was uncomfortable and unnecessary, and at no point did it feel careful or professional. The shampoo portion was just as rushed. Shampoo was applied, scrubbed for what felt like only a few seconds, and then immediately rinsed out. There was no conditioner or follow-up care at all—it felt incomplete and careless. To make matters worse, I genuinely do not like the haircut itself. The cut does not look good, and the overall experience left me uncomfortable and disappointed. Between the rough handling, lack of attention to detail, and rushed service, this was not an acceptable experience. I do not recommend coming here, and I believe a full refund is warranted.

Experiencia fantástica: I haven't had a haircut beard trim in months. Toni asked good questions showing me the progress to insure I would look my best. Already scheduled my next appointment. My wife loved it. Thanks Toni.

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did a fantastic job getting my hair job interview ready

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience in this place, Steven did a great job on my hair highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha is an excellent barber! Very helpful and obviously enjoys her work!!

Experiencia fantástica: Kudos to Toni! She was so personable and above all else she knew what I wanted. Definitely recommend her if anyone is wondering who to go with!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome experience. Destiny really listened to what I wanted and nailed the cut. Very professional, takes her time, and makes sure everything is on point before you leave.

Experiencia fantástica: Toni was amazing!!! I gave her little information as I wasnt quite sure what i wanted. She exceeded what i was expecting with my hair and beard. Recommend her all day!

Experiencia fantástica: Toni gave me an amazing fade and took great care of me. Thank you Toni!

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did a fantastic job! Got to give her a ‘newer’ cut and she didn’t miss! Wonderful job and definitely recommend. Lots of joy and super fun to talk to as well

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did an amazing job. It was my first time getting a haircut at this barbershop, and I was hesitant at first. But Toni cut my hair exactly the way I wanted.

Experiencia fantástica: I got a haircut and beard trim from Chris for my graduation party. He did a great job. Definitely will come back.

Experiencia fantástica: Wes did a really great job cutting my hair. It’s not just the haircut the conversations we made me feel warm and welcoming.

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did a fantastic job on my haircut. It was my first time going to a Hudson / Hawk barber- and I am very pleased with the result. Toni was able to recreate my reference photo perfectly. She even was the first stylist to actually texture my hair the way I wanted. The quality of the cut, and the shampoo was well worth the price. Another thing that made the price worth what it was is Toni herself; She made great conversation and provided excellent customer service. I will be sure to return soon :)

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did an amazing job and she is so friendly and makes sure she knows what you want and strives to do just that. She's one of the few people I trust to cut my hair. Always satisfied with her service.

Experiencia fantástica: Toni is the absolute best she can cut any type of hair into any style! Never had a bad haircut with her! I won’t let anyone else cut my hair!!

Experiencia fantástica: Best haircut I’ve had in a really long time lol

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did an amazing job! Did exactly what I asked and made it look better than I could have imagined.

Experiencia fantástica: Toni did a fantastic job cutting my hair. I’m from out of town and she squeezed me in when I needed it. She definitely rivaled the $100 haircuts I get at home in NYC. Toni said it was her first day but she comes with years of experience behind those sheers. Fun, person, great attitude and even better haircut.

Experiencia fantástica: Super happy with my haircut! She got it done quickly and with attention to detail!

Experiencia fantástica: I have come here for a while and they do a great job! All the barbers are easy to talk to and friendly. Keep it up guys!

Experiencia negativa: Bad customer service. Management cares more about themselves than you as a customer. Have fun waiting 15-20 minutes past your scheduled time, every time you go. Do not go if you have a tight schedule. If you need to cancel they charge you, but if they need to cancel then you’re just SOL

Experiencia fantástica: Wes did an awesome job, trimmed both my hair and beard and it looks amazing! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place, always reliable. Wes F. is great. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I moved to Springfield about five years ago and bounced around different shops, until my friend recommended Preston at the Hudson Hawk shop downtown. In all honesty I was skeptical I hadn't had the greatest experiences at hudson before but I went in and for over a year now Preston has been cutting my hair. Not only has Preston always listened and cut my hair how I've asked, he has also helped me find new products that work better on my hair and new ways to style it I never thought would look any good. I highly recommend you go out and get your hair cut by Preston, he is simply the best and always a great guy to have a conversation with as well. (Ask him about playing the drums, One Piece, or Pokémon.)

Experiencia fantástica: Preston did a fire job, I’ve gotten multiple haircuts and he has never let me down always just killing it. Also just a sick guy

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve had plenty of haircuts in my life—some good, some not so much. The problem has always been consistency. One visit my barber would nail it, the next time… not so much (and it was the same barber both times). That’s never been the case here. Preston has consistently cut my hair exactly how I want it, and it looks great every single time. The only time I wasn’t thrilled was when I asked for something completely different—and that’s on me, because Preston still cut it exactly the way I asked Long story short, I’ve found my new go-to barber.

Experiencia fantástica: I had Preston Rohr for my cut. Did a phenomenal job with my buzz cut and was very nice to talk too. Would recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Been going for a little over a year now… every time Preston is my go to, I won’t get a haircut if it’s not him. I live in southern Illinois and go to Springfield for school. When my hair gets due for a cut in the summer I’ll drive 4:30 hours to have Preston do it because he’s the only one that can do it right. Great place overall!

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot recommend Preston enough! Great haircuts, conversation, and overall atmosphere. Preston listens to what his clients want, and executes perfectly.

Experiencia fantástica: My boy Wes Ford is a miracle worker! I used to drive all the way from Marionville to Bolivar just to get a cut from him—then he moved to Republic, which made the drive a whole lot easier for me. I really can’t overstate how incredible he is. I’ve been to so many different barbers over the years, and not a single one has been able to pull off what Wes does. His attention to detail, consistency, and skill are on another level.

Experiencia fantástica: I have not gotten my haircut here, but my barber Wesley Ford just moved to this shop and I couldn't be more excited! He does fantastic work, and is both personable and professional. He is one of the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Booked an original cut with Wes. The shop was nice and clean. Wes did a great job on my haircut and was very personable. Definitely recommend seeing Wes for your next cut!

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely love this shop. Wes is one of the best barbers around!

Experiencia fantástica: Steven is awesome, gave me really good taper and had amazing consult before the cut. Would highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Easy to schedule, clean space, good music. Samantha is the barber I’ve been to the past 3 cuts and she does a great job. She is skilled at her craft, remembers my haircut, and has improved it each time. She is easy going and can have a conversation but doesn’t feel the compulsive need to fill the quiet times with chatter. I’ll keep scheduling with her as long as she’s available.

Experiencia fantástica: Next level cut. Next level experience. I always look forward to coming in. The wash, the hot towel, the fresh shave. It’s pretty special. And Samantha, my barber absolutely rocks!

Experiencia fantástica: Steven did an amazing job with my 3-year-old’s haircut! Patient, kind, and took the time to make him feel comfortable. My son loved it, and the cut looks perfect!

Experiencia fantástica: I love going to this location! Preston has cut my hair several times here and I’ve loved it every time!

Experiencia fantástica: Stoked on my new cut from Preston! I don’t normally get my hair cut, but when I do, it’s this guy every time.

Experiencia fantástica: Great shop, friendly and welcoming staff. Go to Sam, she is the best!

Experiencia fantástica: This barbershop is great! Preston has been cutting my hair for a couple years and is awesome every time! Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris was amazing! Was looking to get it trimmed for my perm and came out of the chair looking really good, he also did my eyebrows and gave me some tips on how to keep them looking nice. Overall best experience I’ve ever had at a Hudson hawk, my new favorite location.❤️

Experiencia fantástica: Preston does a great job at cutting my hair. I have trusted him for 2 years, he delivers the best haircut and exactly what I want.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Hudson Hawk for several years, during that time Destiny has provided excellent customer service and even better cuts.

Experiencia fantástica: Steven was solid most people can’t cut curly hair good but he did a great job.

Experiencia fantástica: Steven L at the down town Springfield location always does a fantastic job cutting my hair!

Experiencia fantástica: Destiny at the downtown shop is my go to! Great customer service and a great cut! Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I always go to Sam. My hair has never looked better and I how never received more compliments then when I go to her. She is the only person I see now.

Experiencia fantástica: Scheduled the Original Cut last-minute and somehow left feeling like I’d just caught up with an old friend. The conversation with Samantha was effortless, like we’d known each other for years. And the haircut was just as good. Samantha absolutely crushed it. Great conversation. Flawless cut. Good vibes all around. I’ve been in and out of Hudson Hawk for years, but she’s the reason I’ll keep coming back. Ask for Samantha. Trust me.

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha is simply the best hairstylist/barber I've ever had in my many years (okay, decades) on this planet. She works with me to make the most of what little I have left.

Experiencia fantástica: Definitely recommend going to Samantha! She was attentive, patient, and made sure I was happy with my cut before I left!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great experience overall with Sam and the hair cut looks great! 10/10 would recommend going to Sam

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha cuts my hair and does an amazing job every time! She’s the best barber I’ve ever had in my life.

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha LaValley is an excellent barber who has cut my hair for a long time. I highly recommend her as a barber for your future barber needs. She is the best

Experiencia fantástica: Sam is a phenomenal barber I couldn’t recommend her more!!

Experiencia fantástica: If you come here I highly recommend being seen by Preston. He is kind, professional, talented, and reliable. Always a guaranteed great experience with him!

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha has been cutting my husband and son's hair for over a year now and she always does an excellent job! We always look forward to our mornings at Hudson/Hawk. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha is the absolute GOAT! She nails what I want every single time and I am as picky as it gets. Make sure you go see Samantha if you want to look your best!

Experiencia fantástica: Destiny W is excellent. She makes you feel at home and comfortable. When I first switched from my old barber I was really struggling to find someone who seemed like they actually cared about the customer and wanted to make sure they made you happy. Then I came and saw her and I’ve been coming back ever since because she does exactly that.

Experiencia fantástica: i love this shop! Preston always does a great job cutting my sons hair! Very kind! They bonded over pokemon!

Experiencia fantástica: Tremendous experience. Online scheduling is a breeze. Check in is always efficient and check in staff are always friendly. Waits are short and if you do need to wait, the seating is comfy. I have no doubt that All the barbers are great, but Samantha is my go to and she is especially incredible. Wonderful service, tremendous haircut, awesome conversation, AND she always remembers my cut. Can’t imagine going anywhere (and to anyone) else!

Experiencia fantástica: Destiny is great and very friendly. I highly recommend her

Experiencia fantástica: Preston is the best hair guy and he cuts hair good fr 10/10 very much good mmmm!

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend Preston, he was able to get me an appointment and an amazing haircut on very short notice last time I was in Springfield. Serendipitous establishment

Experiencia fantástica: This barbershop is great! Preston has been my barber for almost two years now and he does a great job every time!

Experiencia fantástica: 5 stars, but for some reason every time I get a haircut from Preston, people try to get my number and annoyingly flirt with me. Haircut is immaculate everytime but I now have to figure out how to get these flirtatious mosquito-type people away from me! Perhaps I’ll acquire a can of pepper spray, or cattle prod.

Experiencia fantástica: Got a taper from Preston, high quality cut and an overall great conversation. Would highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Preston is the chillest and kindest dude I know, def go check this place out

Experiencia fantástica: Destiny at the downtown location does a fantastic job. Would definitely recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Preston Rohr is my barber! I want to start by saying I have never had a better barber in my life! Great conversation and even better hair cuts in his chair. Will go back.

Experiencia fantástica: my barber there his name is Preston R. I have long hair and he does a wonderful job giving me trims!

Experiencia fantástica: Hudson Hawk is a clean, cool, and welcoming shop. I’ve gotten my hair cut by Preston—he’s cut a lot of friends’ hair as well—and he is a very kind, funny, and attentive barber. He makes sure that you leave feeling good about your haircut and how you look. I can’t recommend Preston enough! As well as Hudson Hawk.

Experiencia fantástica: Preston has been cutting my hair for a while and he makes my hair look exactly how I want it every time. I’ve never been disappointed in a haircut since going to him and he is very nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Preston cut my hair. I asked for the Lego nightwing cut and he absolutely delivered. 10/10 recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Preston did such a wonderful job on our son’s first haircut!!! We recommend him to all our friends!

Experiencia fantástica: Preston at the downtown Springfield shop cuts the hair of all the men in my family. He does an amazing job and we love him!

Experiencia fantástica: Preston Rohr is a hair cutting god among men! He treated me like a king in a castle and even massaged my back after! What a guy! Highly recommend going to the hawk!

Experiencia fantástica: Been getting my haircut by Preston for about a year now. Absolutely kills it everytime, he’s the man!!

Experiencia fantástica: Haven’t ever got my hair done by a barber!! I went to see Samantha L!!! She did an amazing job! Highly recommend!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha is awesome. Always does a great job and great experience overall!

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha has been amazing at cutting my hair over the past year—she’s consistent, detail-oriented, and always makes sure I leave looking my best. On top of that, she’s great to talk to and always brings good energy and conversation to every appointment.

Experiencia fantástica: I had an appointment with Samantha. The website is clean and easy to book through. I was happy with the cut. Overall great experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for a great haircut. Long time customer, and with guys like Preston in their shop makes me a customer for life! He always does it right! Exceptional

Experiencia fantástica: Preston aka “lil drummer boi” cut my hair. Treated me like family. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: If you're looking for a great experience, come to this barber shop and especially hit up Steven! He definitely came in clutch 100% for me. Because I went to a different barbershop beforehand than the one I normally go to because the guy who I normally go to is always booked and I don't usually like having to schedule out in advance all the time, because sometimes I like doing walk-ins. So I came to this barber shop because I needed help getting my hair fixed because a previous barber messed it up, so I went here and he hooked me up. He did an amazing job. He talked me through the whole process, and as somebody who has ADHD and high-functioning autism, it's a lot harder for me to find a place where I'm comfortable and feel safe because, you know, I can get anxious, and I also deal with OCD. So I am very particular about my hair and he definitely hooked me up and made me feel comfortable. And I feel a lot more confident with my hair now. So if you're looking for a great experience, go to this Hudson Hawk location and book an appointment with Steven!

Experiencia fantástica: My son absolutely loves having his hair cut and washed here! Austin and Chris have both cut his hair just perfectly!

Experiencia fantástica: Tried out an actual barber for the first time in years. Went to see Austin and he absolutely nailed my haircut both the first and second time. Definitely go see him, best haircut I’ve ever had. Need a haircut, Austin is your guy

Experiencia fantástica: They do a wonderful job every visit at THIS location. They are patient and gentle with me and I feel great when I leave to go about my day. LGBTQ+ folks can be themselves here. Thank you!

Experiencia negativa: Definitely not worth going to the downtown Hudson Hawk Barber schedule an appointment to get your haircut. The guy over-the-counter who took the reservation for the haircut took my reservation. Said they could do my hair when I got there Finally came time to get my haircut I showed him what I want done was a taper fade said they don’t have time to do that even though they took my reservation so I had to leave Horrible customer service the guy over-the-counter taking reservations said he could do it and as I got there and I waited they told me they couldn’t do it. I’ll make sure to never come back down here again.

Experiencia fantástica: Go see Austin!! Best barber I’ve ever had. Great attention to detail and takes the time to make sure everything’s just how you want it. Also super personable and cares about his clients. Highly recommend!

Experiencia negativa: SO frustrated with our experience at this location. I arrived with my son to his appointment 5 minutes prior to his scheduled time. Samantha was 20 minutes late getting us in. She then told us she didn’t have time to do the cut he wanted and it was an upgraded cut. We have been getting this same cut at other locations and NEVER been told this was a “stay sharp” cut. I honestly wouldn’t have even been as upset to pay for a different cut, but when SHE was late and then told us she didn’t have time was extremely frustrating after making this appointment and driving to town and then wasting our time by not providing the service.

Experiencia fantástica: Whole experience was great. Easy to book. Shop was clean. Austin was my barber. He was great and professional and went above and beyond, even spending a little extra time to make sure I was happy when I got picky about the length. Price was decent for the service.

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha is the best barber I’ve ever had! She is so nice and very good at what she does. I recommend all my friends to her.

Experiencia fantástica: Samantha is exceptional. As I get a face and head shave every week, and recently transplanting to Springfield, I am ecstaric to have found such a great barber/stylist in Samantha. Very skilled at her job, as well as a great conversationalist. I highly recommend Samantha, and Hudson Hawk here in Springfield

Experiencia fantástica: Destiny in the best! I’ve never really stuck with one barber until I met Destiny. Been seeing her for around 2 years now and the haircut is consistently great

Experiencia fantástica: Kel M. was fantastic! Got my cut exactly right, was friendly and respectful, and didn’t force any awkward conversation (which I appreciate a lot). Couldn’t be more happy with my experience and cut.

Experiencia fantástica: Their original location did not disappoint. This was my first time at this location, and it beats the other ones. The vibe was great. Eric did an excellent job.

Experiencia fantástica: Kel was great! They take their time and listen to what you want.
