Austin Barber Shop

Great haircut! Trish was steady and precise, asked all the right questions, and gave me exactly what I asked for.

Trish complains a lot, and it seems like she doesn’t want to be there. Overall the shave was ok but not hot except for a towel. Results of the shave were good.
Wouldn’t go again.

I’ve been follically challenged in the cranial area for many years now… However, I started growing a beard recently and went here to get a trim. Frankly, I didn’t know what I was trying to do with it, but she helped shape and tame it and also showed me how to trim it while it fills in. I’ll definitely be back!

I found Austin Barber Shop more than a year ago and I’ve gone there ever since. Trisha just cuts hair, the way I want it, and that’s why I go to her. She’s an adult, she owns the place, it is always clean and welcoming. I’d go there just for the hot towel. Bring cash!

Trisha is a hidden gem in Austin. She works quiet and slow, paying attention to detail. In 15 minutes she had given me the best haircut I’ve had in years – only to give me the best advice on product for my hair afterwards.
High recommended, just go.

Highly recommend this barbershop! Trish has been cutting my hair for years and I have never had a bad experience.

Trish is reliable and always pays attention to details. Even though she always holds the mirror up so I can check my haircut at the end, I don’t bother looking because I know she always gives me a perfect cut. It also helps that it’s reasonably priced and the shop is a low– key, laid back atmosphere.

I wanted to update my review of Trish at Austin Barber Shop.
Once again, great haircuts at a great price.
My wife always tells how much she likes the haircuts I get from Trish.
Highly recommended!

Trish is great. I’ve been going there about a year after going through several other barbers that gave bad cuts or had prices over twice as much. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. I’ve yet to have a bad haircut.

Hubby went to get a high and tight and the lady cut him up and didn’t cut his hair even. Same price as Floyds, and they do a MUCH better job. Will not go back. This town needs more barbers.

A real barbershop! Visited early Saturday morning with no appointment and didn’t wait long at all for the best haircut I’ve gotten in Austin. Trisha is a true Master Barber and not only cut it perfectly, but gave me a shave, hot towels and all. She’ll even give you recommendations on the right cut or style that you need.
She takes appointments by phone or website. I recommend her highly. I know I’ll be going back.

Very nice lady. I went here in a pinch. Great price! I really didn’t like the fact that she only uses clippers. However, you can tell that she has a lot of experience as a barber. All in all, I got a good cut.

Trisha gives great inexpensive and classic men’s cuts. The hot towels, easy conversation and straight razor finish make this place a fave. The prices are reasonable too. Go.

I have trouble finding barber shops. This surprises me, because I basically want the simplest haircut ever. Long enough to comb to a part on top, tapering toward my ears and neck with high-​ish sideburns. I agonized a fair bit over finding a barber in Austin after having had the same one for 6 years in Seattle, but Trisha and Austin Barber Shop have hooked me up well.
I walked in on a Saturday afternoon, and Trisha was just closing up, but took me in anyway. She wasn’t the most bubbly person I’ve ever met, but she was nice and chatted a bit (but not too much) while she gave me exactly the hair cut I wanted. The cut was only $ 16.
Great hair cut, great prices and a nice barber. It’s hard to ask for anything more.

Tried because I was in the neighborhood and had heard great things. Walked out with an unfortunate boxy haircut. Not only was the cut boxy, but I asked for scissors on top and she used clippers. Bottom line was a mediocre haircut that wasn’t worth the price and made me look worse when I walked out the door. I’ll be sticking with my regular guy.

I walked in on a Friday afternoon and no one was there except Trisha. I felt a little weird, just because I’m used to Avenue Barber Shop on South Congress, which always has a long wait and all of the barbers are male, but I was in a bit of a hurry and my «don’t be an asshole» side was telling me not to be sexist, so I decided to go for it. I’m so glad I did.
I knew it was a good sign when I sat down and the first thing she said when looking at my head was, «So you had it tapered, last time. Did that work out for you?» It’s been awhile since my last hair cut, so to be able to tell that from a quick look impressed me. She proceeded to cut while we talked about the business, her son, and my move to North Austin. I hardly realized I was getting my hair cut.
Trisha was very professional and patient with her cutting. Be sure you have some time to sit while getting your hair cut. A good cut will take 20 – 30 minutes, but it’s well worth it.
When she was done, she straight razored the back of my neck with hot foam, which I was used to from Avenue, but then she pulled a hot towel out of a warmer and covered my neck and face. I wasn’t expecting that, but it was awesome.
Bottom line: This place offers great hair cuts and great service at a great price. It’s cheaper than most places I’ve been and the quality is top notch. Try it our at least once!
Note: This place was formerly known as Capitol City Barber Shop. Read their reviews too to get a better idea.
