High Five Barber Shop

Experiencia fantástica: After my barber moved out of town I’ve been on the search, glad to say I’ve found my new consistent at Frankie’s!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve gone to so many barbers in my 30+ years and they never get it quite right. It’s to the point that I have been nervous about getting another cut. I have thick, but mostly straight hair, which I thought would be easy, but what do I know? I ended up letting it grow for about 3 years just because I was avoiding another bad experience. I came to Frankie armed with only a couple photos of what I wanted and she nailed it. Like I didn’t even have to ask her to adjust anything at the end. The most happy I’ve been about any haircut I’ve ever gotten by far! I don’t think I’ll be waiting quite so long next time. 5/5 would get in the chair again!

Experiencia fantástica: First time getting a haircut from Frankie and she did a fantastic job. Location is great too, considering it’s right above Velo coffee. Cortado and a haircut, can’t beat that. Highly recommend Frankie

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is awesome! Talented and friendly with very reasonable pricing .

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie cut my hair for the 2 years I was in Chattanooga. After moving, my High Five appointments were one of the comforts of home that I left behind. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is so great! I needed someone to help me figure out what I wanted and talk me through it - and Frankie delivered! She is so nice and easy to talk to and willing to take the extra time to make sure you love the end result

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience all around! Will definitely be back! So glad to have found a barber shop that cuts women’s hair. Frankie listens well and is awesome at what she does! Also, LGBTQ and neurodivergent welcoming!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve gotten my hair cut here a few times now and I know I’ve found the only place I’ll go to in Chattanooga. Frankie is super nice and she does a great job. Very accommodating and the best place to go that’s LGBTQ+ friendly :) Edit: I’ve been going to Frankie for over 7 months now. She never disappoints! :)

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is awesome and did a wonderful job with my curly hair which is hard to find. You can’t beat the cost and location as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is super friendly, easy to talk to, and gives a great, clean cut! I’m very picky about how my hair looks, and she nails it every time. Cool atmosphere and great location on Main Street too.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie made the experience extremely pleasant and comfortable. The shop was also very sensory friendly.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience and amazing haircut. Plus Frankie is very cool and nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie was great! Really dope location and I felt very taken care of. Great prices for the service, too.

Experiencia fantástica: Five star review for High Five and Frankie....(seemingly without effort) raises and sets the bar for Barber Shop Higher. Props.

Experiencia fantástica: Very chill & welcoming! Had trouble finding a barber I felt comfortable with, but that’s not an issue anymore :) Team High Five!

Experiencia fantástica: Very cool studio. Friendly vibe. Good price for great haircut. Grab a coffee downstairs afterwards.

Experiencia fantástica: High Five was a great experience. Easy booking, good availability, very fair prices and easy payment. It’s clear they are elevating the barber experience in Chattanooga by focusing on the things that matter most; convenience and quality. I’ve been going to another great barber in Chattanooga for a couple years but over the past year it’s become very hard to get an appointment and the prices have climbed at a steep rate. That, combined with the expectation for gratuity in this business means it can cost $800 or more annually for a men’s cut. I appreciated the “everything is included in the price” approach that High Five takes, reducing decision fatigue and delivering a more transparent and simple transaction. A sensible approach when the service provider is also setting the price! I’m very happy to have another great barber option to consider when it’s time for a cut!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie gave the best haircut I’ve ever had. And loved the low key spot above Velo. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is the best! Listens thoughtfully to what you’re looking to achieve with your haircut as well as how you want to feel in your new hair. Keeps longevity in mind as well, which is huge. Would highly recommend for anyone with simple or complex goals for their hair! Can’t go wrong!

Experiencia fantástica: Love the chill vibe off this place and that the base price is the same no matter your gender. I've been twice now and love the results!

Experiencia fantástica: I'm old (and getting older) and that sometimes means looking old and haggard. Frankie makes me look human again. As much as I appreciate that, my wife appreciates it more! I'll continue coming here as long as I'm in Chattanooga!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is a magician. I always feel like I made the right decision to go to High Five. I’ll keep coming back. Thank you Frankie!

Experiencia fantástica: I had such a great experience here! I love my cut and can't wait to come back when it needs some shaping up. LGBT+ friendly. I didn't initially realize that it's INSIDE of Velo. Turn left at the cash register, go through a doorway, and head up the stairs.

Experiencia fantástica: It's been almost 2 years since my last haircut and I'm new to the Chattanooga area. I found Frankie and she worked a small miracle with my long hair and beard! I would highly recommend High Five and Frankie for a ROCK STAR haircut! I will be a regular with her to keep a fresh clean look!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is just great! The haircut is killer and its always fun hanging out.

Experiencia fantástica: After years of searching for a steady place to call my hair did home, I can finally say I’ve found that place and it doesn’t hurt that you can get a great cup of coffee while you’re there. Great atmosphere, great conversation and great service. It’s a great mental break during a busy day, always timely and is a seamless transaction. Very personable and professional. Frankie’s amp goes to 11.

Experiencia fantástica: Extremely friendly and always a good experience. Finally found someone who does a good job every time and who I’m never nervous about messing my hair up.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie, is the best! I wouldn't get my hairs cut any place else.

Experiencia fantástica: Can’t recommend High Five enough. Frankie always gives me the best cut with only my vague thoughts of how I want it. Plus, do yourself a favor and grab some coffee from Velo on your way out. Only dummies wouldn’t get their hair cut here!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie does a great job and is an awesome person to chat with. Highly recommended!!!

Experiencia fantástica: A real High Five! A swing! Good conversation and a professional cut. You can keep your free beer. This place was great.

Experiencia fantástica: I should’ve posted this review a long time ago. Frankie has been cutting my hair for 7 or 8 years now. She always does the best job and I can’t recommend her enough. I lived out of the area for a few years and I would always make sure to get a haircut when I’d come back to town for a visit whether I needed it or not. Now that she’s working above Velo you can get a top tier cup of coffee and a top tier haircut all in the same place.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is great! She is thorough and meticulous, and is great at blending. She gives a high quality cut, I definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie has been cutting my hair for many years. Always does a great job and always kind. Happy to see she has her own place!

Experiencia fantástica: Really cool spot to get a haircut. Frankie is super nice and welcoming and did a great job. I’ll definitely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie was very attentive to what I wanted with my haircut and did a really good job. She was very friendly and we talked quite a bit about everything. It was quite an enjoyable experience.

Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience at High Five and will definitely be back! Frankie is lovely, so easy to talk to and the atmosphere was 10/10! Really love the gender neutral pricing and how inclusive the shop is ✨

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is awesome! Have been getting my haircut from her for years and she never disappoints. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I loved getting my hair cut at High Five Barber Shop! Found this place from an online search for queer-friendly barbers in the city and that made me feel at ease - the atmosphere and Frankie's friendliness also contributed to a feeling of safety and relaxation. Frankie gave me an awesome fade that looked just like I wanted it to - showed her a couple reference photos at the beginning and talked about how I like my hair to look and she knocked it out of the park. I'll definitely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie's is amazing. Go. It's an experience I personally do not regret. On the house drinks, a man cave, best scalp massage ever. Seriously, go. Treat yoself.

Experiencia fantástica: GREAT! AMAZING! INVITING! Highly recommend! Frankie is awesome and genuinely cares about you as a person and your hair/beard needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie finishes cutting your hair She spins you around You say “I love it” *for the first time in your life - it isn’t a lie*

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie ROCKS! My new favorite place. Perfect if you're a person wanting a more gender inclusive vibe over other 'traditional' barber shops that offer 'mens cuts.' Frankie can do it all!

Experiencia fantástica: Go get cut by Frankie. Seriously, set up an appointment for a cut and the Hangover session after the cut is a 100% MUST! Traveling for work has ran me through many barbershops across the country and Frankie’s cut and service was by far the best. She is fun, chill and easy to talk to. I wanted the mullet touched and she made it extra trashy! Makes sure she understands how you want your hair cut and to get the look you’re going for! The best part was the hot towel, essential oil facial massage! Holy shnikes! I’m tempted to go back just for another Hangover session! For real, go see Frankie; you can thank me later!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place and atmosphere. Very welcoming. I am of mixed descent and I have a hard time finding good barbers. Lived in plenty of places. This has been one of the barbers I’ve ever had. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is the first person I've felt comfortable with to get a extremely different look from. I was looking for something gender neutral and 100% got what I was looking for. I've been looking for someone with the right vibe for years now and I'm glad it was right here. Super comfortable atmosphere, bonus that it shares a shop with Velo coffee roasters, so I feel revived inside and out. If you're looking for skill and a great conversation, look no further.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie was very nice and knew exactly what I was looking for with my haircut. She did an amazing job, it came out perfectly. I had a great experience and will definitely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: I love, love, love this place. It took a bit to find the business, even though I knew that it was upstairs, but once I did, I enjoyed the location. (Tip: once you enter the coffee house, you need to walk past the cashier to the left side of the house, where you will find the steps leading upstairs to High Five.) The owner has their own little area reserved for their business, which has a lovely open-air atmosphere. The haircut was excellent, and the flat-rate pricing was amazing. I have never had a haircut before that didn't involve some sort of check-out process where you had to juggle tipping and payment. But when my cut was done, the owner simply said, "You're all set!" and I was on my way. Perfect. Just a great all around experience, and I would definitely come back again.

Experiencia fantástica: We have been going to Frankie for a while now and she is awesome. Super clean place very friendly and excellent service. My son has had a mullet for the last 2 years and will not let anyone else touch it except her. She is very professional and does excellent work.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is the best! She’s been cutting my hair for a few years now and always does a fantastic job. You can’t find a better or more personable barber in town. Her new place above Velo is super cool too. Go check it out!

Experiencia fantástica: The best of the best! Frankie has cut my hair for a couple of years now and genuinely cares about it. Scheduling an appointment is easy online and the new place is so comfortable and welcoming.

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful atmosphere, great service, coffee shop downstairs if you need something to drink while waiting, and a swing. Best barbershop I've ever been to.

Experiencia fantástica: If I could give six stars I would. Somewhat new to the area so I searched the internet for reliable places to go. I went in for my bi-annual haircut, as I enjoy growing my hair out until it becomes too hot outside. I showed Frankie a picture of how I’d had it cut in the past (close fade on the sides and length remaining on the top and front as I have curly hair). The cut I received was even better than the photo. Not only the attention to detail and the excellent haircut, but the kindness and conversation had while visiting is second to none. The new location near downtown is also cool and shares the building with a coffee shop which is only an added bonus.

Experiencia fantástica: The whole atmosphere is great! Being upstairs at a coffee shop is a plus! Frankie did an amazing job cutting my hair. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I will definitely be back.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is AMAZING!! I’m from San Francisco and literally this is the best haircut I’ve gotten

Experiencia fantástica: So thankful that Frankie is back! Same great haircut and same lovely Frankie but in a beautiful, unique, new space.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie is great; very knowledgeable, highly skilled, and very helpful explaining to me how to maintain my cut/style.

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie, as always, did a fantastic job on my haircut. The new space is great, cool location and more of a private feel. 10/10, definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: The new location upstairs at Velo is a perfect place for the new shop. I was able to get my haircut in a nice spacious area with delicious coffee available on my way out to work afterwards. I’d highly recommend making an appointment and checking it out!

Experiencia fantástica: Frankie and Jonny's is a great place to get a haircut! They do a phenomenal job, pay their employees a living wage and provide benefits, and support their community both inside and outside of the shop with charitable donations and by taking COVID-19 seriously. They require masks in the shop to help stop the spread of the virus and their staff members are all vaccinated. This makes a HUGE difference for folks (like me) with chronic illnesses and compromised immune systems. I also really appreciate their support of the LGBTQ+ community. It can be difficult to find a queer and trans friendly shop and I know I can trust Frankie and Jonny's to always be a safe and welcoming place!

Experiencia fantástica: Love all of them and have been getting my haircut by Frankie for 8-ish years. The best of the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly service & a clean cut. Excellent detailing on the beard. Just found my new barber.

Experiencia fantástica: Jane did such a fantastic job! I had a lot of length taken off, and Jane checked in with me at each step of the cut to make sure we were on the same page. Great conversation and an awesome environment too. I’ll be back next time!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband loves getting his hair cut here and I love that they give ME his drink! Then I go shopping while he zen's out during his haircut. Happy husband, happy wife=happy life.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is pretty cool. Tyler is amazing as always. He's been cutting my hair since I moved to Tennessee. The enviournment is super chill. Everyone seems nice. I highly recommend this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Cannot say enough positive things about Vince. He does an incredible job and is a great guy. He is easy going and great at reading the room whether you are in the mood to chat or just need some quiet time. I drove 3 hours for him to cut my hair before proposing to my fiancé because I trust him that much.

Experiencia fantástica: Isabella did an outstanding job cutting my hair. The entire experience from start to finish was not only different than a traditional barbershop, it was unique and fun. They even have cocktails and drinks available for their clients. Such a cool place and no one else is touching my hair except Isabella.

Experiencia fantástica: Old school cool with contemporary flair. Isabella worked miracles on my hair and beard. Vince fought back the demonic hordes known as my eyebrows, and Leonard... well, Leonard is a dog and just wanted pets. Everyone made me feel welcome and right at home. I hope my hair grows fast, so I may return as soon as possible. Do yourself a favor and pay for a legit haircut.

Experiencia positiva: Cool place, professional barbers and definitely capable of giving you the haircut you want. However, both times I’ve gone in, I used a picture to show them exactly what I wanted. Both times I walked out with my hair not even close to the picture and hardly any hair left on my head. Like I said cool place, solid barbers, I just want a specific style of low fade and everywhere I go I get scalped.

Experiencia fantástica: I have never been to a barber that was more eager to please their clientele. Courtney gave me my first hair cut in almost a year and a half (covid head) and did an absolutely perfect job. Great conversation, great atmosphere and a soothing drink while I waited. Speaking of which, I went in without an appointment at about 8:30 on a Saturday morning and they were already full. I only waited about five to ten minutes, but I can only imagine how much busier it would have been later in the day. I'd say that making an appointment would be the way to go and the extra $10 appointment fee would be well worth it. Wish I could give six stars! I'll be returning until they decide to retire.

Experiencia fantástica: Vince has cut my hair now twice. Both times have been absolutely outstanding. If you’re a guy and like fresh cuts, Vince is your guy.

Experiencia fantástica: The environment was very welcoming and professional. This is hands down the best experience I have ever had getting my hair cut. Having a beer while getting my hair cut was a first for me and it was quite pleasant to say the least. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: As long as Jonny is physically capable of holding a pair of clippers, no other human being will EVER touch my head. The relationship he and I have built over the last five years is unlike any other experience I have ever had. Spending time in that shop is not a chore or a task, it’s an experience. The conversation and atmosphere is just as priceless as the flawless haircut I receive every other week. Shoutout to Frankie, Izzy, Jared, Vince, and Courtney as well! I’ve seen all their work and it is just as fantastic as Jonny’s! If you care about your hair, and you want to be treated as an guest, not a customer, then go see them! Love you guys!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the barber shop every non-gender conforming, transgender, questioning individuals who want short hair. Frankie was amazing! I was concerned to cut my hair short again even though it fits me and my gender. Frankie gave me an amazing haircut! If you need a gender confirming haircut ask for Frankie! They are all talented and LGBT friendly but Frankie did mine!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been seeing these barbers for going on 6 years now, and I've never been disappointed. Although Jared and Izzy are the ones that I frequent, all of the barbers here are a 100% recommendation. Clean, professional, great quality cuts for a fair price with a great shop vibe and whiskey/beer to top it off! Take my advice. Ditch Super Cuts and hit these awesome barbers up if you wanna look your best and have a great haircut experience

Experiencia fantástica: Courtney was great, I was available a little bit before my actual appointment and she accommodated me no problem. Light-hearted conversation and easy-going atmosphere. I had a trim and shampoo. The trim has me looking fresh and the shampoo smells great. 10/10 would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Went in for a shave on Wednesday and DID NOT need to shave until Saturday!!! Furthermore, almost feel asleep while I was getting shaved. Unbelievably relaxing.

Experiencia fantástica: Great local shop. Always good conversation happening in this place. Beer on tap, movie on screen and a staff who know how to cut hair.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great experience! Staff were very professional and wore masks the entire time (unlike some other barbershops in the area). Decor is really cool. Jared was very friendly. I will be returning here exclusively.

Experiencia fantástica: Visited Frankie and Jonny's today for the first time and regret I haven't been seeing them for the last 3 years! Best haircut I have ever had! Included a straight razor finish and a cold beer. Never looking back now. Thanks!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been to just about every barber shop in Chattanooga and I can say unequivocally that Frankie and Jonny's is the best spot for a cut. There are other shops in town that offer a beer with their hair cut (although, "the tap is out" is normally what I heard there). It's not the extras that make this place better, its the people and the space. Incredibly friendly, welcoming, and VERY good at what they do and talking through cut styles with customers. You know that awkward, moment when you're sitting in the chair and the barber asks what you want you fumble through trying to explain it? Doesn't happen at Frankie and Jonny's they've got it worked out. Go here. Get a great hair cut. Go back the next time. Simple.

Experiencia fantástica: Vince did an incredible job on Hair & beard! Great environment & great people! Highly recommended

Experiencia fantástica: It’s a really nice place. Staff is friendly and they really practice the current hygienic standards. Thank you for the nice haircut :)

Experiencia fantástica: Jonny and Jared did a fabulous job on both my boys hair! Very kind, quick and were caring with them. They also got a special design from Jonny, which made their day! Definitely going back!!

Experiencia fantástica: I really liked the vibe in the shop. Treated me like family. Vince did an outstanding job on my cut. He really took the time to know exactly what I wanted and nailed it. I will never go anywhere else again.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic service from Isabella. I needed a last minute haircut for a big interview and I was extremely impressed at how great of a job she did! Been to many many barbers before and can honestly say she did a better job than any of my old NYC barbers! Will definitely be coming back.

Experiencia fantástica: A community minded business you can always depend on to make you look like a million bucks. The barbers here are always striving to be the best and you can tell how much their customers benefit. #treatyoself

Experiencia negativa: So if you book an appt, which is normal with any barber shop, they attach a 10$ “booking” fee. What a rip off.

Experiencia fantástica: Quality service, excellent haircut and adherence to COVID-19 protocols. They’ve earned my business and I will be a returning customer. Thanks so much Jonny and staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome vibe and even better staff. Frankie is awesome and a pleasure to work with. They also demonstrate a high level of attention to detail in their covid prevention measures

Experiencia fantástica: Decided to get my first fade and Frankie did an amazing job! Have been back since and can’t wait to get my hair cut now!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the first time I have been to Frankie and Johnny's barber shop. The service was fantastic! Johnny was great! I walked in and was seated right away. We are in from west tn and we will have to plan more trips to/through Chattanooga to stop in and hang out. I will be back! Thanks, Johnny Zac

Experiencia fantástica: I've tried multiple barber shops since moving down to Tennessee and luckily for me I found Frankie and Jonny's. Vince is an awesome barber highly reccomend him

Experiencia fantástica: I was able to walk in and be seated right away. Vince is a top-notch barber and a cool cat with an interesting background. The atmosphere was laid back and inviting. They offer a beer with your cut as well. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great haircut today from Jonny himself! Very friendly atmosphere and clean shop. Thank you Jonny!

Experiencia fantástica: The BEST barber shop in Chattanooga! Jonny has been my barber for years, and I have never been disappointed! Time is well spent when you are at Frankie and Jonny’s! Great conversation. Great atmosphere! When it’s all over, you leave with an excellent cut. No matter who gives you a cut, you will not be disappointed! For both young and old, Frankie and Jonny’s is THE place for a fresh cut in Chattanooga!

Experiencia fantástica: The best barber shop in town, hands down. Friendly staff, clean workspace, offer appointments so no waits. You’ll leave with a great attitude and a fresh haircut.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome barber shop!! Very professional great atmosphere. First time getting my hair cut as I live in picayune ms. But I have to say I really enjoyed the experience!! And the hair cut was on point would highly recommend:)

Experiencia fantástica: When you walk into Franky and Jonny’s you are always met with smiling faces and a positive environment. No judgement, and as little or much conversation as you want. This is all on top of getting the best cut you have ever had. Jonny has cut my hair for years and he has never disappointed.

Experiencia fantástica: I have gone to Jonny for haircuts for me and my son since they opened, and before at his old shop. He is amazing, has great recommendations, and always does an awesome job. I never want to get my hair cut by anyone else ever again, only Jonny.
