Walked in for the first time a couple weeks ago. Decided to go with the first barber available due to all of the good reviews I saw online. The reason for coming in was to fix and blend the sides of my hair with the top since I had just had a terrible cut about a week earlier. After about five minutes, I was called on. I clearly said what I wanted and left the rest to the barber. The first thing I didnt like was 95% of my hair cut was turned away from the mirror, so I was staring at other customers and couldnt see the progress that was happening. The only time I saw my hair was briefly at the very end. I thought it was okay and, after less than ten minutes, I was finished. The only other barbershop Ive been to has been Santarellis. For the same price, I was blocked in for 30 minutes, had a lathered shave to clean up lines and a hot towel at the end. Unfortunately, I didnt feel the same kind of dedication and care at Longview Barber Shop. Maybe it was the wrong barber for my style of hair, since, after my cut, I had to have a friend fix blatant areas of my hair (front, sides and crown) that were still not blended or uneven. In the end, I felt it was not worth the $20+ I spent and will not be returning.

Been going here most of my life. Staff is very customer service focused. Great with kids. Jeremy, especially, is patient with kids that have fears with getting their hair cut. Big crate of toys plus books and comics to keep the kids entertained and out of your hair. Certain days, certain barbers are appointment only. There are always non-appointment barbers. On their web site there is a web cam showing their sign in sheet so you have an idea of wait time. Usually it is pretty short unless you have a specific barber in mind and a couple folks are in front of you. The new seating arrangement allows for more barbers but does make it a bit harder for pre barber conversation. So for first time folks it may not be as socialable as it was back when they had about half the staff. But once you get back to the barbers, there is tons of good conversation to be had. Local Clintonville history with Dave, movies and comics with Nick, sports [OSU, NFL, NHL, MLB, MLS (the Crew filmed a commercial in the shop), etc.] with most anyone and almost anything else. I heard Chelsea discussing dogs with a patron during my last visit. And after a few visits they get to know your name and the experience grows.

5 Stars isnt enough!! I have been going to Longview for only 2 months now and every visit was stellar. They have a sign in sheet for walk-ins and I always select first available because I trust google reviews. I am also eager to have each barber have a go at my misshapen head! The first few haircuts have been by Amy who did such a good job that my wife noticed! (She NEVER notices) My last visit, Nick took care of me. He too did an amazing job! The entire staff there is passionate, friendly and professional. They truly care about their clients and have an excellent reputation. Many of the customers that walk in are addressed by name. That isnt something you often see at other barbershops or salons. From now on, consider me a loyal regular! Do yourself a favor, treat yourself to a great haircut and exceptional customer service!

I have been going to Longview for about a year. I have had my hair cut by multiple barbers at this location. The level of talent here is off the charts! Other reviewers have complained about the atmosphere. If youre looking for a prohibition style barber shop this isnt for you; if you are looking for a prohibition style cut however, this barbershop has the barber for you. Dont let the female barbers discourage you- they have the talent to do any cut you are looking for. I have had my hair cut by Chelsea, Dave, and Mitch (incredible : but is basically only by appointment). I usually go for a high-and-tight with a beard trim and have yet to be disappointed. Whether youre taking your child or you are looking for that hip new cut, Longview will not disappoint - I promise!!!

This is a quality barber shop. Ive literally been going here all my life and the guys are just great. I was so happy to see how theyve grown over the last year. I cant speak for the service of the newer woman there but I know all the guys are great so I have full faith that she is too! comes down to this: You want a family comfortable environment- go here you want someone who will cut your hair right!- go here you want some conversation with some cool people- go here you want fast and affordable service- go here hands down the best barber shop in Columbus.

Nick was amazing!!! Knew what I needed due to a botched job at great clips (coupons are not worth a bad cut). Walk in wait was around 30ish min. Big crowd means high quality place. Great atmosphere. Laid back. First time away from my normal barber do to their availability. I know its hard to find a new barber or someone in between cuts. Hands down the place to go if you are out of town, need a new barber, or just a quick cut. Go see Nick. His attention to detail was amazing. Fun guy and super chill. I will be back!

Ive been going here for about a year now. I usually have Mary cut my hair. I always enjoy the conversation and atmosphere. Everyone there is friendly and great at what they do. I highly recommend it. To put it into perspective, I have many barber shops around where I live, but I choose to go 30 minutes out of my way to make the drive to Longview Barber Shop. Dont get discouraged when you see the line. It is well worth the wait, I promise!

Gave my boyfriend a bowl cut! We thought the haircut looked okay while wet, but after it dried it looked absolutely awful. No layering done. Back wasnt even cut. I dont think this place can cut longer hair, or at least our barber. We were really surprised considering all of the high reviews. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. Real barbershop chairs. Rustic stadium chairs. Childrens play area. Free Wi-Fi. Big screen TV.

Dave and Jeremy were the only Barbers at Longview Barber Shop when I started getting my hair cut there in 2005. I have watched the shop evolve to what it is today and it still has that same feel now that it did then. I used to enjoy watching football games while waiting for my turn on that big CRT TV that used to be over the front door. Great atmosphere, fair prices and good Barbers; Id recommend them to anyone.

I have been going to Longview Barber Shop for about 5-6 months now and regret that I did not find them earlier. The atmosphere and customer service of this shop makes it worth the occasional wait. I wish that more business would take the time to get to know their clients and perform at the level of customer service that this shop shows on a daily basis. Keep up the great work!!
