Cliff's Classic Barber Shop

Expérience positive: Nice barbershop and good haircut. However, I’d like to see clear sanitation of tools/clippers after each customer. Hygiene matters.

Expérience fantastique: Always get my haircut here.

Expérience fantastique: Best in town. Expert hair cutters and warm and friendly. They know how to make you feel at home and how to laugh.

Expérience négative: Worst haircut in 70 years never listen to my instructions

Expérience fantastique: The barbers are old school, as much scissors and comb as cordless trimmers. They take great care, even with my bald man's fringe. I've seen some very contemporary styles done while waiting.

Expérience négative: Worst haircut I’ve ever had. Asked for a fade, the guy just shaved my head. The top, uneven. I have to go to a real barber to fix it.

Expérience négative: With haircuts it's important to follow instructions. Unfortunately they didn't follow instructions regarding length and basically gave me a military buzz cut. Also I can see the steps between clipper guards on the side of my head.

Expérience fantastique: This is a great and reliable spot for haircuts. They're also open on weekends and the price is very reasonable for the amount of care and effort that they provide for each customer. Yasin in particular is excellent!

Expérience fantastique: Victoria is the best barber I have ever had!

Expérience fantastique: I always try to go here. Eseen is great.

Expérience fantastique: Just got awesome haircut here! My dude was new cdn from Morocco. Incredible skills. Used scissors straight razor and clippers on me. Warm shave foam neck clean up. I feel great and love the cut. All at greet price! I might have to come over monthly from mainland for my hairs cuts from now on!

Expérience négative: I don’t know if it was a language barrier or what, but I asked for 3 on the sides and an inch off the top, and the guy shaved way up past on the sides where I showed him to go, and he took off way more than an inch. I dunno if he though a wanted a Mohawk or longer bangs or something weird. I’ve had some good haircuts there but this is one of the worst haircuts I’ve ever got. I wear glasses so I don’t have them on when I’m getting cut and it’s hard to tell what’s being done, and the final product when I put my glasses on was disappointing to say the least.

Expérience négative: Very nice people. However, the hair cut I got was not normal compared to other salons I go to. For example, the barber used the “thinning” scissors on my already thinning hair on top of my head he also took the fade all the up to the top of my head, so be sure to tell them “fade halfway” now I look like a and the English wasn’t the greatest to be honest which is probably the most important thing I look for because a simple miscommunication can completely alter the appearance. Now I ll wait 6 weeks to regrow my hair.

Expérience fantastique: Military, senior and kids discount. But also a very affordable mens cut at $26 for a walk in. Great team, always happy and phenomenal work. Noel is a gem! Thank you for a great cut.

Expérience fantastique: Good pricing , no waiting, excellent craftsmanship, very nice gentleman in a cool location. Excellent bakery next door.

Expérience fantastique: Great haircuts, very reasonable price, my go to place for haircuts

Expérience fantastique: These guys are talented. Trust me, go here for your haircuts. This is the fastest haircut I have had. I got unmanageable cowlicks, 5 of them. They had me figured out on visit one!

Expérience fantastique: Awesome place to get your haircut or a bread trimmed, which I got both done. Never had a haircut experience like this, they are a master at cutting hair, their speed and accuracy is amazing. If I lived up in the area he would be my new barber for life.

Expérience positive: the barber didn't listen to what I wanted. won't be returning unfortunately, upside is that it's a good price.

Expérience fantastique: Driving by and spotted Cliff Barber. Looking for a haircut and first straight razor shave in 65 years. Awesome experience and feel so much better walking out!

Expérience fantastique: Loved these guys! It was the best haircut my son has received. Fast, really clean lines and professional. We will be back

Expérience fantastique: Very skilled barbers at Cliff's shop at a fair price. The bakery next door makes for a great snack after relaxing in the barber chair.

Expérience fantastique: Always a great hair cut and service in French is a bonus.

Expérience fantastique: Super great guys, friendly professional great haircuts!

Expérience fantastique: Good group of guys, they always give me what I asked and make sure it’s precisely done and I come out looking fresh every time. I only ever come here for haircuts now!

Expérience fantastique: Great service. The hot towel shave is awesome. My guy Dia gives a great cut. Cash only!

Expérience négative: I’ve been twice for a haircut. Both times I said - I’m growing my hair long on top, so just give me a fade, and even the top out if needed, but again, I’m growing it long, so not much. Both times he cut my hair short. Way too short. So. Won’t be going there again.

Expérience fantastique: Did a fantastic job on my son's hair! They were soooo nice!

Expérience fantastique: Great guys with the skills to make even the most hagard among us look nice. Would reccomend to others.

Expérience fantastique: Great haircut, nice experience! Very happy!

Expérience fantastique: Cliff Barbershop in Victoria, BC, is fantastic! The service and haircut were amazing, with great attention to detail. The team is professional, friendly, and accommodating. I was especially impressed that they speak English, French, and Arabic, which makes communication easy and welcoming for everyone. I definitely recommend this barbershop for anyone looking for top-notch service and an excellent haircut!

Expérience fantastique: Yassine gave me one of the best haircuts of my life

Expérience négative: I went in, explained I wanted 2 c.m. off, marked with my fingers the desired length of my cut. Partway through my hair was exactly as I asked it... Then the barber kept going. He snipped my bangs (when pulled straight) from the bridge of my nose to the middle of my forehead. I let him make the cut even so that I wouldn't look completely atrocious, BUT HE THEN RETURNED TO MY BANGS AND I HAD TO TELL HIM TO STOP. I won't look normal for at least a month and half. Thank God I'm moving out of Victoria. Can't believe I paid for this crap

Expérience négative: Don't go near this place, this is not the Cliff's of a few years ago. The young guy with long hair is horrible, cut was uneven, missed a patch of hair on my neck, no attention to detail at all, spent the entire time watching soccer...save yourself some money and just cut your own hair at home with a butter knife, you'll get the same result.

Expérience fantastique: Smoothest hot towel head shave I've had in the city. Great price as well. I'll be back again.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been coming to this barbershop for years now, and it’s great. Good mix of younger and older barbers, and always a good, reasonably priced cut.

Expérience fantastique: Very happy with my haircut. Very professional shop and was very detailed.

Expérience positive: Good quality hair cut for fair price. No reservation is needed. Military and Senior Discount.

Expérience négative: I went here twice in the last 6 months, and both times, barbers didn't listen and decided to give me a haircut nowhere near what I asked for. This time this young barber was to invested into a soccer game on TV and chatting about it to properly cut my hair and decided to shave the entire back of my head after being told "don't cut the back too short" and would have almost cut all the hair off the top of my head too if I didn't tell him to leave it alone. Please do better and leave the TVs alone when you have customers... I now need to restart on growing my hair and definitely will not be going back here

Expérience fantastique: These guys aced my haircut Highly recommend

Expérience fantastique: Ive never seen my kids happy like this for their haircut :) Will come back

Expérience fantastique: Im going there for almost 5 years now , very reasonable price , super happy for haircut and beard trim

Expérience positive: It’s been three years now and they are still my barber shop to go to, they have never let me down

Expérience négative: The haircut was ok, but the barber, old man, kept blowing on the clipper and on my neck. I didn't feel it was sanitary.

Expérience fantastique: Had great haircut by Wadii. Very nice barber and reasonable prices.

Expérience négative: Over charged me. Didn’t listen to what i wanted for my haircut and then told me oh well hair grows

Expérience fantastique: Awesome haircut, best I've had in a while. I'll definitely be back.

Expérience fantastique: Love going to Cliffs. You go in, wait your turn, tell them what you want and then just sit in silence until they are done. Pretty quick and efficient and reasonably priced as well. I am sure if you like to make small talk they will but, it's a great place if you just want to be quiet and get your hair cut..

Expérience négative: I got a skin fade here, the haircut wasn't too bad. Although the guy cutting my hair was the least bit gentle. He proceeded to man handle my head and bang into it with his clippers, as though he was hammering nails. Not coming back.

Expérience négative: Hot shave. Razor was very dull and shave was not close. Missed spots and neck is completely mangled. Did not use trimmer to shorten at beginning either. Had to go home and shave again. Experience and result was poor all around.

Expérience fantastique: Needed a cut, and visited Cliff's on recommendation from a friend. Wadi COMPLETLY blew away any expectations. Best haircut I've ever received! Can't recommend them enough. Cash only but there is a fee free ATM in store.

Expérience négative: Impatient while not knowing the language. Inspite of picture etc, my hair looks ridiculous. Not knowing the language is just fine, that's why I had plenty of pictures. He was dismissive and quite rude.

Expérience positive: Alright, they also do not have Interac, there’s a cash machine in the place so be ready for that

Expérience fantastique: Friendly, to the point, fair prices and a great atmosphere. First time visiting and all I did was walk in and took a seat. Standard Barber services from qualified gentlemen. Location is easy to access and the beard trim was great for me. I will be visiting again!

Expérience fantastique: You are a fool if this is not your guy. Best prices, very high skilled. Always busy due to these things.

Expérience fantastique: This is my go to barbershop. These guys are the real deal. After years of searching for a good barbershop, I’ve finally found this gem. Great haircuts, great price and always nice pleasant vibe.

Expérience fantastique: Top Shelf Complete Service! A very proper barbershop, its my new goto!

Expérience fantastique: Just recently moved to Victoria, would strongly recommend this barber shop,received a excellent haircut at very reasonable price,friendly and professional service,glad to have gone there,since I will return there on a regular basis

Expérience fantastique: Great prices, fast service, and amazing haircuts.

Expérience positive: Staff are friendly and welcoming. Shop is clean, tidy and organized. Haircut and beard trim were good with attention to detail and extra touches such as neck tidy up with straight razor and aftershave spray.

Expérience positive: They always treat me like a king, the level of detail is exceptional.

Expérience fantastique: The guys are awesome. I just stopped by to get work of another barber fixed and they did it without any charge! Next time I’ll need a haircut I will go straight to them.

Expérience fantastique: I am visiting from the North. I walked in on a Sunday afternoon and got the best haircut I’ve had in a long time. Wish I lived here, I’d go here for every cut!

Expérience fantastique: All three barbers are excellent. Friendly and professional. Great location and work hours.

Expérience fantastique: We had a great experience visiting Cliff’s classic barbershop with my kids. We were greeted with a smile and left with a smile. All three of my kids were very happy with their haircut and reasonably priced. Thank you gents.

Expérience fantastique: I have visited Cliff's for a number of haircuts now. Im always greeted with a smile and a hello and I usually only wait about 5 to 10 minutes until it's my turn as a walk-in. I've been given 3 separate wonderful haircuts here and the price is extremely fair for the quality of work! I 100% would recommend this barbershop for all your gentleman's hair needs!

Expérience fantastique: Recommend these barbers over many others. Their attention to detail is superb. The atmosphere is professional & cordial.

Expérience fantastique: Great and friendly shop, very classic. They really only seem to do one style, but if that's your style, this is your place.

Expérience fantastique: Great haircut. Great price. Did a great job cleaning up my beard. Definitely recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Great staff, incredible service and competitive pricing. Usually a short wait but that is reflective of great service

Expérience négative: 2 bad haircuts in a row by the current 'barbers'. What happened to Cliff & his capable help?? I'm Looking around for somewhere new. On the upside, there never seems to be a line-up.

Expérience fantastique: I had my husband and my 7 years old went there and they were super happy with the service they had .

Expérience négative: It's an awkward place where no conversations happen, the barbers seem genuinely in a huge rush or to have a weird contempt for the customer. My haircut was uneven, the barber smelled terribly, one sideburn on my head was at an angle, the other was dead flat, he shaved the entire back of my head and used scissors after a shaver on top, so I ended up with a weird fuzzy haircut. I guess I'm happy I only paid $24 but the fact that the barbers all had bad haircuts themselves should have been a give away. Won't be going back.

Expérience négative: Tried to communicate my wants but was misunderstood and I dont think I will go back. If I cant be understood then I will not get what I want

Expérience fantastique: These guys are great. I have long hair and they did a great job. Friendly, fast and one of the cheapest haircuts I've ever had!

Expérience fantastique: Started going on regular basis to this barbershop and i am very happy with it. Desiree (Kaled?) knows perfectly well how to cut my hair and I am never disappointed so far and it is cool to practice a bit of French in the shop. Keep up the good work guys !! Thomas Thanks

Expérience positive: Got a nice haircut, not what I asked for, a bit short on the bangs and guy was a little rough with my hair but can't complain for $20... not bad

Expérience négative: The haircut was okay - not quite what I wanted or expected, but good enough. The owner's responses to my review (and subsequent edits) have been unprofessional and insulting. Not going back to a place that tries to gaslight honesty

Expérience négative: I hate to give 5* as they are getting busy all ready. But I have to. Fantastic service and best cuts in town. Edit. I’m have been going here for over a year now. There is one barber who I go to every time. I always call a head to make sure he is working. At least 10 times now I have been told by others that he is there and when I get there he is not working, or I have been told exactly opposite days when he is actually working. He is hands down the best barber in the shop and I think others in the shop are trying to screw him over. Today was last time I I go in to this shop.

Expérience positive: They offer drop in appointments only which can be handy. It’s a busy shop. Reasonably priced and the barber did a good job on my husbands cut.

Expérience fantastique: I've had two haircuts by Victor and have to say they are the best haircuts I've ever had. That was validated by friends/family who were really impressed with Victor's work as well. Especially for the price. I'll be back. I highly recommend Victor and Cliff's shop to any guy looking for a very skilled barber who'll leave you with a 'cut above' and looking good!

Expérience fantastique: Came back again , great service ! Third time for me. ( December 01 - 2022 ) Professional and love the shaved neck. Come out feeling clean and refreshed. If there is a line up it is worth the wait. Fair price !

Expérience fantastique: Best place in town for a haircut that is fairly priced. The guys here do an amazing job.

Expérience négative: I'd avoid this place. Asked the barber for the '95 Leo cut and he gave me the hardcore frontman special. Very disappointed as I wanted to look like fly not like I two step for a living

Expérience négative: I went to this barber shop early today and requested a very simple 1.5 fade and a beard shaping for a beard that I had been growing for years. The barber did the haircut carelessly and fast only concerned about getting it done quickly and not the finished product. It was an okay haircut at best. For my beard he asked if I wanted it long or short and I requested that he just shape my beard and not cut it too much. No joke, he took probably 85% of the beard off and the finished product he left me with is uneven and looks horrible. I’ve never ever refused to pay for a service in my life but this was a first for me. Extremely disappointed. 0/10.

Expérience négative: Asked for a fade and he ended up taking almost nothing off the sides Left my top extremely uneven Horrible communication skills Not sure how he got 5 stars Find God

Expérience négative: Worst haircut of my life, I asked for a little off the top and the guy butchered it, it’s been a month and my hair still hasn’t recovered

Expérience positive: Friendly barbers but this last visit constituted the 2nd time my son showed a photo to the barber and the same barber cut it at least an inch too short. Can't justify returning at this point.

Expérience fantastique: The best barber shop I’ve been to. Introduced me to a real, clean looking haircut. Makes me feel real deadly. The staff are very professional. My go to spot all the time even if I have to wait in line. They also give you a free Pepsi after the haircut. *chefs kiss*

Expérience fantastique: Loved the experience. Great place to get a haircut. Charges $24 for haircut and provides good service.

Expérience fantastique: Hands down the best haircut ive gotten in my life. Constant, fast and fairly priced. Cliff's always delivers.

Expérience fantastique: After years of laughably bad haircuts at the likes of supercuts, magic hair, etc... I finally stumbled into this place.. Classic barber like the name says, friendly, full service (even a straight razor on the back of the neck!), and to top it off, it was only 24 bucks!

Expérience fantastique: I came in with basically a rats nest of hair and they turned me into something that resembles a human. Very good cut. Will use again.

Expérience fantastique: The place looks nice ,the staff is nice and friendly ,they also do a great job on the haircut I always come here for now on

Expérience fantastique: Today I took my 2.5 year old son here for his very first haircut. Despite having a squirmy and kind of unsure customer, the barber was very gentle and patient with him. His hair also looks adorable and is well done. I'm so happy I brought my little boy here. We'll be back!

Expérience fantastique: My go-to place for haircuts for sure, always friendly and I always come out with a clean cut.

Expérience fantastique: Cash or EMT, hours are consistent, whenever I go its never too busy. Been going for almost 10 years now.

Expérience fantastique: Best hair cut and shave I've ever gotten. This is my new barber awsome service!

Expérience fantastique: My first time here, definitely not my last. Warm friendly greeting the moment I walked in. Staff is very professional and know how to cut hair, love the straight razor on the neck. Probably the best barber experience I have had in Victoria. Walk ins only, well worth stopping by. Thanks Guys!

Expérience positive: Always had a great haircut here by the 3 older gentlemen. Went there yesterday with a friend to get our hair cut and made the mistake of letting this younger kid cut our hair. He didn't listen to what we wanted and gave us both an awful haircut. Would've been 5 stars if not for that.
