Phil is the man when it comes to old school mens cuts. I bounced around for years unhappy with other places till I found him. I know a lot of UWM kids come here for the cheap simple cuts, but I work a 1940s style that is not easy to do. Aggressive taper, from a #1 to about 6" at the top. Phil has always nailed it, and had some great advice for improving it. Phil knows his stuff from 1920s cuts to Rockabilly to modern (and obviously the simple stuff). He can really work a proper fade and a taper. And he always takes the time to get it right. He and Keisha are super nice, warm, friendly people. The place is a little quirky (They recently adopted their niece so she is sometimes there in her crib), but I love that about it. Put simply, they are good people. And I easily get a $25 cut for $10. Go there. You will not regret it.

The best in Milwaukee when it comes to quality and price. There are only two barbers, Phil and Keisha (sorry if I spelled your name wrong), who are both awesome. You dont have to pray for a good stylist like at a chain shop. You can walk-in knowing you will be taken care of. You can tell they care about your hair. They take their time, and are very friendly. The Price has been $10 for the last 4 years Ive been going there, which is absurdly cheap for the ability to have your barber be your friend. Dont hesitate, just go!

I just moved to Milwaukee and was nervous about finding someone to cut my hair. I had always had a person I regularly went to back home and was not looking forward to searching for someone else. After looking up some places on Google, I saw that Be U had very good reviews and was close to my place. I decided to try them out and was very happy with the result. Phil does an amazing job! He takes his time and listens to what you want. He also gave me some tips to improve my hair. A great haircut for $10!

Went in for a haircut for the first time based on the excellent reviews and the price. I wanted someplace else to go other than SuperCuts. Phil was awesome and nice. Took his time and really cares about making you look good. Nothing was rushed. It is kind of a family ran business, so there are some aspects that arent so professional (like kids running around.) However, none of that will matter once you look in the mirror. I will be going back and am glad to give a local eastside shop my business.

Local owners run a wonderful shop. Very friendly! I got a great cut - the barber was very precise and took alot of time to get me exactly the look I wanted. Very personable and great stylists. The price was amazing too! Just 10 bucks a cut. Beats super cuts and and cost cutters any day. To Be U youre a person. To super cuts and cost cutters youre just a number. Go with Be U and help out some local artists!

As a student at UWM, I was looking for a place close by for a haircut. The reviews here seemed positive, so I went. I was not disappointed. Phil cut my hair and made sure it looked good throughout my visit. He also asked me how I was going to style my hair and took that into account. I will definitely be going there again. For $10, this place is the place to go.

Both Phil and Kesha are real friendly and do a great job every time I came in for a simple mens hair cut. Only $10. They recently re-did the interior of the place, so it looks new and fresh. I went there every month when I lived in Milwaukee for a year. Also, theyre across the street from Ottos liquor store, so you can knock two trips out in one!

Was looking for an affordable place to get a quality haircut and decided to give Be U a try. I havent had much luck with haircuts in the past, but this place gave me a great cut for a low price and I was in and out in 15 minutes. This was my first time coming here and definitely will not be my last.

Phil is the Man when it comes to giving you what you want with just enough advice to make it even better then you imagined. And for $10 hes giving away a true deal which is hard to come by. Great place to get a cut as well. Theyre very friendly and always ask you how your day is going.

AWESOME experience! Ive been going for three years and I will never go to another place again. When you find a place and dont know whats better; the friendly hospitality or the excellent hair cut you get you never want to leave. Keep up the great job!!!

I had to find a new barber, and had Be U recommended. Always a bit nervous going to a new barber, but I was extremely happy with my haircut. Exactly what I wanted, at a fantastic price, near where I live as well. I will definitely be a regular customer.

I think this is the barbershop that Ive always been looking for. Ive tried Great Clips to Groom for Men. This is a barbershop like it should be. Friendly, local, fair, quality cut, and comfortable. I highly recommend this place.

Have been going here for several years now. Happy from the first haircut, both Phil and Keisha and great people and know what they are doing. Kids are super fun, prices are great, overall this is a very lucky place to find.

Phil is a nice and talented guy. I first heard about this place near UWM through Groupon. Its a very good value at $10 a mens haircut. He takes his time with the scissors on top until he gets it just right. I will be back.

Friendly, skilled, and reasonably priced. Youll keep going back once you give them a try. Dont take your chance at a franchise "salon" when you can get a great haircut every time at Be U, for about the same price.

I have been going to see Phil and Keisha for years. Best barbershop in Milwaukee in terms of the experience Phil and Keisha have and by far the best value anywhere. 10 bucks for a great haircuit, cant beat that.

Decided to break routine from the cost cutters and other chain salons to try something new and local and I could not be more satisfied! Excellent cut in a friendly atmostphere at a very affordable cost!

I really like my haircut. My stylist was a good conversationalist. Some of the interior (bathroom especially) should be fixed up/redone. All around it was a good experience for a really good price.

Love this place! I highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking for a great haircut at a fantastic price, and to support a local, family-owned business that prides themselves on service.

I just got my hair cut here, and everything about it was great. Great price. Friendly, professional service, and no pressure or attitude from the stylists. WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK.

Phil did a superb job today. Listening to my wants and needs. He explained how to better style my hair and demonstrated the differ approaches I can take. I am a customer for life!
