The Barber Studio

I was visiting from California and needed a cut bad, set up an appt with Brandon and it went smooth! For being a very well known shop, I was impressed with the service and all for coming in last second. Highly recommend! The shop looked nice and the set up is much better than any barbershop I’ve been to. Coming back to TBS anytime I’m in Canada
On a side note, the shawarma place right next door was crazy popular so if you’re waiting to get cut, try out Osmos grill and get the wrap

TBS has been my barbershop of choice for about 2 years now. Personally I get my hair cut by Nick, but looking around the shop, it seems that every barber there consistently does a good job, as there are plenty of people, both young and old, who walk out of the shop in all smiles.
The barbers here work on an independent basis, paying rent monthly for a spot in the shop. Having said this, each of them maintains their own clientele and this shop is heavily appointment-​based. If you walk in without an appointment and just sit down, do not be surprised if you do not get any service, as each barber is probably just assuming that you are a client of another barber there.
For walk-​ins to be successful, I’d highly recommend telling one of the barbers that you’re a walk-​in. Usually, if the barber you ask doesn’t have time in his schedule for you, he’ll ask his fellow barbers in the shop if anyone does have time.
Ideally, what you’ll want to do is get a barber’s number and set up an appointment. This way, you can greatly decrease the variability in your wait times.
During your wait, feel free to play a game of FIFA on the PS4, charge your phone on their built-​in chargers behind the bench, watch TV on the flat screens, or even check out the new hair products in the showcases. The music here is typically loud, and they tend to play various types of hip hop.
Hopefully your wait isn’t too long, but it’ll be well worth it once you get your cut.
PRICE: $ 20, CASH ONLY

I went to this place for the first time today after my old barber retired. The people who work there are great and know what their doing! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone needing a hair cut or beard trim.
Asides from that the environment is really fun, they even have a PS4 you can use while you wait.

Wow this place is packed!
I was the guy who was tired of going to salons/​first choice and other choice cutters and needed a good decent cut! so I went on Unilocal to look around and I landed on this place after reading some reviews so went in for a try.
The place located in Streetsville is a very busy shop. I walked in and ask about if they were taking walkins but after sitting for 30 to 40 mins I got tired. I talked to Russell and he elaborated that making an appointment would be better as they all have customers back to back. Instead of being angry I though to give it a try one more time. Russel was pretty nice and told me to text him and he will book me in.
The day finally came and I was here! I was sitting in the seat to get a decent cut, when Russell talked about how the barber shop works. Basically, each barber is on their own and pay rent for the chair; building their own client base and that’s why appointments are much better.
After the cut was done I would say it was one of the best cuts I have had in a long time. The sides were faded/​blended very well and the top was cut in the right direction as I gel it to the left. Hence, the $ 20 wasn’t as painful to pay for a nice cut!
The place is designed to chill, as they have a PS4 and flat screen TVs for sports as well as cell phone chargers.
The parking behind the shop is a bit limited and if its busy you might have a problem. but I think you can park down the street.
The shop lost one star as there is not a good system of walk-​ins but 5 stars for the hair cut!
P.S if you are into cars the owner drives a Maserati, check it out if you are there.

Walked in and got my cut there for the first time got a great cut and beard line up make sure you ask for matt he was very patient and made sure i was happy before i left very great customer service ill be back for sure!

Don’t bother coming here for a hot towel shave. More like a lukewarm towel with a terrible shave. The shave was rushed and not done properly. I still have stubble on my face. When I confronted Frankie about the stubble he said oh the towel was there and I did not see that part. Wtf kind of excuse is that? Move the towel and look. He then attempted to shave the part he missed and said «I can’t shave closer if I do it will be skin. Now I have had a bunch of hot towel shaves and I have never left with stubble on my face before. When he finished the shave he used a blow dryer to blow after shave all over my face and shirt. He then proceeded to baby powder my face and dust it off with soft brush which went on my shirt and in my eyes. When I left I had a wet, not damp, collar. I also still had hair on my face that was not cleaned off. I didn’t tip and just left. What a joke! I can’t believe they would let someone like that work here. Multiple times during the shave he walked away to answer the phone! I’m so disappointed I will never return to this establishment!

Every Movember, I grow my Mo to help raise awareness and money for improving mens health. A carefully crafted mustache requires a few visits to a skilled barber who can wield a straight razor expertly and carve out a sweet stache without nicking you and leaving you with a silky smooth baby face.
I usually allow myself two pro shaves during November and after having my initial Mo shaped up in TO, I wanted my Mo to get some Mississauga flavour, and this is when I came to The Barber Studio. Located in Streetsville (Sauga) on Queen St near Thomas street, TBS is the antithesis to the growing hipster barber spot. It’s got all the trappings of a mod-​salon with an urban vibe and clientele. I like this place because with their diverse staff, it’s clear they understand how to work with different types of hair.
But I wasn’t here for a cut or line up, I needed a shave… Enter — The Groomer! Who? No, he’s not a new super hero with a movie coming out in 2015 (but he might as well be). He’s Stephen the expert barber over at The Barber Studio offering the tightest fades and closest shaves around.
I’ve had many shaves in my day, and this was by far the most detailed, thorough, and closest. While the service followed all the key points in terms of facial massage, lather, hot and cold towels and two directional shaves, where he really impressed me was with his attention to detail. He pointed out an ingrown cluster of hairs that I just assumed was a pimple AND went over an above what he needed to do by not only removing as many of the clustered in growns as possible but educated me on how this had happened, and how to address this on my own once home. This was a huge help as I know most barbers would have just shaved over this without taking the time to remedy the situation.
Expert Shave top to bottom.
My one critique is that the music at times got a tad excessive, part of the barber shop experience is shooting the breeze with your barber and I found this impossible with the music blasting and other yelling over top of it to be heard — sort of took the relaxation part out of the shave for me.
On the other hand, I enjoyed that TBS has found a way to cultivate that classic Barber Shop vibe where guys just come to hang out, there were several guys there just shooting the shit with the staff and it’s great they felt comfortable enough to hang out here like that!
I’ll be back again soon for another shave and maybe more!
CASH ONLY

If you want a fade done well come here. All the barbers here know what they’re doing.
I went today with my friend to get a cut from Nick one of the philopino barbers there. If your going to this place by yourself for the first time don’t be surprised if no one comes up to you I don’t think they do drop ins here since its so busy. You should book an appointment prior to coming since they are busy thought the week.
20 bucks for a cut with tax and tip no wash.
The spinning chairs are a plus

Walked in and got the best cut I’ve had in years. $ 20 for a cut and it was done in less than half an hour. My only complaint is that they could be a little friendlier and greet you with a smile when you walk in and walk out just to make you feel comfortable and to show that your business is welcomed.

My friends barbar just recently started working here in Streetsville and works with a bunch of other talented barbars. This is a place for men obviously, and they accommodate to their customers needs. While you wait to get a cut, they have a PS3 and TV mounted to play FIFA. This place is poppin with the latest hip hop and rap, kind of even feels like your at a house jam. The staff is friendly and can help you achieve the look you want. My friends barbar, Steve, has been cutting his hair for 4 years now and my friend has never left unhappy with his cut. All the barbars take their time and enjoy what they do. They interact with their customers and keep their stations organized. Men if you need a good cut, come here, they know whats up ;)
