Experiencia fantástica: A great place that has that local, neighborhood vibe. You're only a stranger at your first visit.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! Amazing staff

Experiencia fantástica: Love this barbershop! Highly recommend!

Experiencia negativa: Stopped to get my grandson a hair cut. They acted like they don't want to cut kids hair. Won't go back

Experiencia fantástica: Best Barbershop Ever! I’m 66, and this little barbershop is a real find - the best I’ve ever been to. Audrey and the team are friendly and professional. The shop is new and pleasant. The haircut, the shave, the eyebrows… Great job on all. For a half hour, I felt like I was the king of Persia! And the price was right. I definitely recommend Herston’s.

Experiencia fantástica: Great shop, great barbers. Glad I stopped in today

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey Herston always cuts my hair. She does a fabulous job at it. She does it all. She trims my eyebrows, mustache, straight razor beard and hair cut. I love the straight razor shave. It's so smooth afterwards. I think she does it all for $40, but I always pay her $50. All I can say is that she does an amazing job .

Experiencia fantástica: Joel is amazing! My 14 year old son refuses to let anyone else cut his hair! 10/10 recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: When I came into Herston’s Barbershop today, I was greeted by a lovely man who turned out to be Todd Channell. Mr. Channell is a friendly individual, and we had many conversations about football, hobbies, and each other's lives. Mr. Channell took his time giving me a haircut, and you could tell he cares about the quality of his work and is willing to do his best for everyone who walks through the doors of Herston’s Barbershop. Mr. Channell is a great barber, and I will make sure to always set up an appointment with him whenever I need a haircut.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been getting my hair cut by Joel for a few years now and no one has been as attentive as he is during a cut. He’s always measuring and checking and making sure everything looks right and I’ve had a great experience every time.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been going to Audrey for a couple years now. Shes super friendly and always does a great job. You can tell she is passionate about what she does. Definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place, sharp haircuts, and fair prices!

Experiencia fantástica: Joel always does an awesome job on beard trimming. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Had Todd cut my hair always does an amazing job you gotta come get a cut from him you will be back.

Experiencia fantástica: Todd Channel’s the man!! Seems like I’ve known him forever been going for a long time so glad to be here. Love this place. Come check it out.

Experiencia fantástica: My 16 year old wanted to try a barbershop. So I took him to Herston. Todd was amazing. My son wants to go back to him in the future when his hair needs cleaned up.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming to Herston’s Barbershop for a while, and I have always had a great experience. The haircuts are top notch and the prices are reasonable.

Experiencia fantástica: You need to be here all the best cuts and styles you want!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey did a wonderful job taming my unkempt beard and gave suggestions on how to look better!

Experiencia fantástica: Todd the new barber at Herston’s gave me an excellent haircut and beard trim, Todd really took his time, great atmosphere there, I will definitely be back

Experiencia fantástica: Been searching for a new barber for an over a year now, and Audrey did an amazing job. Her attention to detail is top notch and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a proper hair cut.

Experiencia fantástica: I love how I can make an appointment online, Audrey is a talented barber and easy to talk to. Best barber shop ever.

Experiencia fantástica: By far the best barbershop I’ve been too. I have tried a lot of different places in the area but none of them compare to Herstons, especially Audrey. She takes the time to get to know her client and make them feel heard and welcomed. She makes sure that you are getting exactly what you want. Great atmosphere and barbers. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Joel cut our nephews hair and did an excellent job

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey cleaned me up perfectly.

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly and know what they are doing 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a cut!

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice people! Working nearby and I needed to use the bathroom, they were super nice and let me use theirs. Inside is very clean, and the people are very friendly! Thank you!

Experiencia negativa: Made an appointment over a week in advance. Get multiple reminder emails for the appointment. Show up & they claim there is no appointment. Try to tell my husband it’s probably my fault because I didn’t finish the “last step”. How does one get appointment reminders if the appointment is not set?!? We won’t be back. Customers time is valuable!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Joel is a master of his craft!! His attention to detail is spot on. I haven't had a hair cut or beard trim in close to a year, so I presented a decent challenge haha Sat down and we got to talking about what I was looking for in a cut and beard trim and he hit it out of the park. Will definitely be booking an appointment when I'm in town. My first time impression, being my first time to the shop, it was welcoming and laid back. Audrey came right out, welcomed me, and sat down for a quick talk. You could tell everyone liked being there, which makes all the difference. Keep up the great work!!

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you, Jeremiah for the perfect fade! Most consistent barber I’ve had, always clean and welcoming

Experiencia fantástica: jeremiah gave me the best fade of my life ! 10/10 will be back again !

Experiencia fantástica: The service here is very friendly and you feel welcomed as soon as you walk in. Jeremiah is very talented at what he does! 10/10 :)

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey listens to detail and does a really great job, I highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly clean and quick great place to stop in for a cut. Would recommend them!!!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Jeremiah was the Barber who had cut my hair, the cut was phenomenal to say at the least. Not only was the quality of the work good he was very personable and held great conversation to maintain a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended this barbershop and getting cut my Jeremiah while visiting.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional, clean, and a customer first mentality. This is the only barbershop I go to NE Ohio, because they make everything simple and have the highest standards. I appreciate how they ask questions and want things to be just how I want them. I have gone in to get a shave, and they blend things in and ask if anything is bothering me. They take their time, I never feel rushed, and I feel like they are more concerned with things being perfect than I do. Audrey and Joel have built a great community of people, and I always enjoy talking and catching up. Thank you for everything!

Experiencia fantástica: Best place to get a haircut in Akron!! Audrey and Joel are just amazing and go above and beyond for you every single time!! Great place, clean and inviting! Highly highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey is excellent. I have struggled with how to cut and style my hair for years and she nailed it. She is now my go to barber. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: First time I went to this shop I instantly knew that it was going to be my permanent barber shop. The staff is very friendly and always do an absolute amazing job. The owner even cuts hair and Audrey is truly talented at what she does. Not many barbers can cut a flat top she has been doing the best flat top I've had in many years. I always tell anyone looking for a barber to go to Herston's they are wonderful very clean and comfortable places to get an amazing haircut.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Audrey for the past 4 months after switching barbers due to repeated issues with my haircut. I told her exactly what I was looking for, and she not only listened but helped clean it up and get it right. Ever since then, she’s been my go-to. Definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing.

Experiencia fantástica: My mom is an amazing barber and the place is very beautiful and clean!

Experiencia fantástica: Joel did an outstanding job on my son’s hair. From a full head of long hair to a short hair style he wanted. It looks amazing and my son and I are super happy with it. Will definitely be going back for his future haircuts. Thanks again for getting us in last minute.

Experiencia fantástica: Best place to get a haircut. Audrey and Joel do a great job. I always appreciate the conversations we have and level of service I get.

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey and Joel are the best around! Not just cutting and shaving but to talk to. It’s that feeling of being friends with people you haven’t met yet. The place is clean,professional and relaxing. This is a community family owned and operated gem in Portage Lakes so let’s support these places that do so much for the community!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Herston’s Barbershop is hands down the best barbershop around! Audrey, the owner, has consistently given me the perfect haircut every single time. She truly has a gift for her craft. On top of that, her warm and engaging conversations always make you feel like you’re her most important customer. I also really appreciate how easy it is to book appointments online — I usually set mine the night before, and the process is smooth and convenient. I strongly recommend Audrey and Herston’s Barbershop to anyone looking for top-quality service and a welcoming, professional experience!

Experiencia negativa: Great barbers and atmosphere. I highly recommend treating yourself and getting a hair and beard trim! Update: the barbers that I would recommend have left. I have started going elsewhere. Update 2: I have tried other barbers and watched others. It has been a while since i have been there but i was scrolling through my reviews and found this and wanted to update it to reflect my updated feelings. Also, in my himble opinion, chastising patrons is probably not a good look for a business owner. If I would have been thinking of returning to try it out again I most certainly would not now!

Experiencia fantástica: The hubby loves this place.... low wait times !! Appointments on line.... super convenient... clean establishment!! Friendly barbers !!! AUDREY IS amazing !!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great fade haircut by Audrey 10/10 definitely recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I've gone a few times and Audrey does a great job every time.

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey always gets me right! Have had several great experiences. Crazy attention to detail!

Experiencia fantástica: Probably the best cut I've had with Audrey. Very polite

Experiencia negativa: She trimmed my eyebrows way too short now it looks like I have none 0 stars if I could

Experiencia fantástica: Came across Herston's in a Google search and was impressed by the ratings and comments. Visited the other day for a haircut and was thoroughly impressed. Great haircut, but also great atmosphere. Audrey is so personable and friendly! The shop is impeccably clean with a positive vibe. Absolutely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey usually does my hair and it always looks amazing. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I began visiting this barbershop at the start of the year, and it’s quickly become my go-to ever since. For a long time, I struggled to find a barber who could consistently deliver a haircut I was happy with, someone I could trust not only to execute my preferences but also to offer expert suggestions. Audrey has exceeded all expectations. She is exceptionally skilled, welcoming, and creates a warm, comfortable atmosphere every visit. I occasionally bring reference photos to help communicate my vision, and she consistently brings it to life with precision. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and talented barber.

Experiencia fantástica: Very hard worker and needed a break. What a relaxing experience. Left feeling much better and my wife loved the cut. Bonus

Experiencia fantástica: I wasn’t sure what to think walking in the door today, it seemed kind of fancy. I can tell you from the second I walked in I was greeted with kindness and a smile. I’ve been going through a rough time and the woman who works there was beyond compassionate. She gave me an excellent consultation, and fade and beard trim. Most importantly she listened and told me about Jesus and how he has changed her life. It was very inspiring, and I feel like I walked out the door with a new breath of air and mindset. Can’t be more grateful for my experience today. Thank you to the lady with the light in her eyes!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Best barbers, they really go above and beyond to make you as handsome or beautiful as you've ever looked

Experiencia fantástica: The kind of place where you walk in with burdens and leave lighter — not just from the service, but the spirit of the space. Spotless, well-organized, and the aesthetic attention to detail reflect an ownership or management team that genuinely value the customer experience. Excellent work and better people. Keep it up and thank you in advance for becoming an essential part of my routine. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality in an amazing environment.

Experiencia fantástica: Love that they take appointments. Great haircut by Joel and just all around great experience! Definitely coming back

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent place to get a haircut and or trim to your beard done great atmosphere barbershop is really nice

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey was amazing. She shaved my head, face, and neck. It was an awesome experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey is amazing. Great Haircut, great shave, great atmosphere and conversation. Price is right and I would much rather have this Barber experience then sit through various hair stylists at a chain salon. If you haven’t tried Herston’s Barber Shop, you should!

Experiencia fantástica: Always great experience! Their always perfection at their cuts I always get a hair cut with a beard cut with a hot towel just I love the clean shave with a strait razor cut definitely old school and not much newer barbers still do that can't go wrong I used to go to mutiple barber shops and now I only go to Herstons Barber they know what their doing and for what you ask for is decent pricing they don't leave you with a rash after a haircut like other places that can't even clean their clippers would 10/10 recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I was working in the area and had seen the barbershop while working up here so I was way over due for a hair cut and I gave them a call to see if they took walk ins and Audrey answered the phone and said absolutely so I booked an appointment with Audrey and it was probably the best hair cut and trim I have ever had, walked in looking scruffy and walked out feeling fresh and younger thank you again Audrey will definitely be back

Experiencia fantástica: We walked in, and Audrey was booked up with appointments and still was able to squeeze me and my son in! Super nice and great cuts!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome barbershop. They’re really friendly, remember their clients, and do great work. My son and I won’t go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome barbershop! They are super friendly and remember their clients, so you’re not just another “body” in the barber chair. They do great work, and the shop is nice and modern. I won’t go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome service. Audrey was fun to talk to. Cozy shop and got me right in.

Experiencia fantástica: Audrey was able to take me by appointment and she did an amazing job! Will definitely be coming back and referring to others.

Experiencia fantástica: Phenomenal barbers and phenomenal place. They know their stuff. All the barbers are also easy to talk to and can really do it all!

Experiencia fantástica: After buzzing my own hair for the past 15 years, my wife finally put her foot down. She told me I was too fat to keep rocking the soldier look and that it was time to start looking like the businessman I’ve become. She helped me search online for a barbershop and found this one, saying it was by far the cleanest looking one with really good reviews. After showing me pictures, she said, “This is the one.” I set out on my adventure, with my son as my trusty sidekick, to explore this barbershop. Now, I suck at technology, and they have an online booking feature (which I will be using in the future, and I recommend you use it too), but I called and Audrey answered. She got me in right away and from the moment I walked in, I noticed how clean and comfortable the place was—way cleaner than any barbershop I had ever been to. As I sat in the chair, I couldn’t help but notice the plants carefully placed around the shop. They didn’t just add to the clean and modern feel—they made the place feel alive, almost like a quiet reassurance that I was somewhere I belonged. It was the perfect balance of comfort and masculinity, like being cuddled by nature but in a way that still made me feel like a man. Audrey was warm, welcoming, and incredibly skilled. And let me tell you about this magical hose—she used it to blast forced air all over my neck and clothes after the haircut, ensuring I didn’t drive home itching like I had a bad poison ivy rash. That little touch made all the difference. When I got home, my wife took one look at me, bit her lip, and said, “You look so sexy.” Then she gave me the same look she did on our wedding day and informed me that tonight, the kids would be going to bed early. So, gentlemen, if you want your wife (or girlfriend) to call you sexy, or if you’re looking for a girlfriend, or if you simply want to increase your odds of having kids to send to bed early in the future—book an appointment. Audrey and this barbershop will transform you into the manliest of men. The manliest of men is not just a title—it’s a presence, a force, a quiet storm wrapped in confidence. One who stands like an oak tree, deeply rooted yet unshaken by the winds of the world. One who is the steady hum of a well-tuned engine, powerful yet controlled, never needing to rev too loud to prove his worth. He carries himself like a well-aged whiskey—smooth, strong, and commanding respect with every presence he graces. He is the iron anvil upon which strength is forged, yet refined like a blade honed to perfection. The manliest of men doesn’t demand attention; he simply exists, and the world takes notice. This is what this barbershop will do for you. I will definitely be returning here and finally stop butchering my own head. Luckily, I didn’t have to search far and wide—this place was a lucky first find. So here’s to a bright new future of being manly—where strength meets style, confidence is effortless, and every step forward is taken with the poise of a king. A future where the beard is sharp, the hair is crisp, and the presence is undeniable. Where a man walks into a room, and without a word, the world knows he means business. Here’s to standing tall, looking sharp, and embracing the kind of masculinity that turns heads, wins respect, and most definitely gets the kids sent to bed early.

Experiencia fantástica: Stopped by today during a power outage, I was in a pinch and the owner Aubrey was willing to still cut my hair even under the circumstances. When I got home, it was perfect! Will be back

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best out there. Outstanding service, very welcoming and professional environment & always leave looking my best. I don’t leave many Google views (I probably should) but in this case it’s worth it. Audrey & her fellow barbers are top notch & I cannot recommend them enough! Stop thinking about it and book your appointment today. Thank me later.
