Floyd’s 99 Barbershop

Was told it was going to be a 45 minute wait. After an hour and a half, I saw more people who arrived after me get cuts than were there before me. I won’t be back as I left without getting a cut.

I believe my stylist was Teri she was great! She really did a fantastic job. I would for sure be back. My hair was a complete mess and honestly just wanted a beard trim, however I felt confident that she was going to be able to shape up my hair and make it great, she delivered. My hair looks amazing now, thank you.

Floyd’s is essentially offers a Supercuts/​ProCuts haircut but charges $ 10 more. Don’t be fooled by the trendy atmosphere, you are not going to get a quality haircut. I’ve stopped into this Floyd’s a few times out of convenience, gotten a horrible haircut, and promised to never come back. It’s my own fault I’ve gone back, but my haircut this past Saturday was the last straw. I showed the barber/​stylist a picture of how I wanted my haircut, which pretty was a trim of my current hair and adding texture/​thinning it out. My hair is pretty much a buzzcut with my bangs/​front of my hair a little longer than the rest. Save your money and go to anywhere else other than Floyd’s if you don’t want a butchered haircut.

I’ve been coming to this particular Floyd’s for about 4 months and it’s very consistent with the two other Floyd’s I’ve been to. Knowledgable staff, clean and fun environment, and I’ve always had a great haircut. Definitely check them out, I’m sure you will come again.
Pro tip: call 20 minutes before you show up so you won’t have to wait too long.

Congratulations, Floyd’s. You earn one star from me.
I recently saw a review from another about Pierre. The receptionist told him that Pierre was on a vacation for 2 weeks, when in reality, he left the company! THE EXACT THING was done to me over the phone about a month ago. I called and she told me that he took a vacation and said he *might* be back in two weeks. Ok fine-​so I went to a different stylist at a different location for the time being. I call again today, and they proceed to tell me AGAIN that he took a vacation. Irritated and skeptical, I questioned the receptionist. She finally said that he left the company. Then, when I asked the receptionist where he moved to, she would not tell me where he relocated.
Like are you serious? you blatantly LIED to me (and to other customers) on the phone about an employee, and then you refuse to tell me where he moved to??? Wow. I should at least deserve that information for you wasting my time for a month in anticipation that Pierre would return. Very unethical behavior by the company. I won’t be returning.

Ok, way to go on transparency Floyd’s … I will not be going to your shop again.
I had been happy going to this location for the past year to get my hair cut with Pierre (probably the best barber there — see the multiple positive reviews)
I call 3 weeks ago to schedule an appointment with him and I am told he is on vacation for 2 weeks and to call back again later. I call back (again) last week and am told that he’s going to be back probably in 2 weeks (again). Finally decide to call again this week and am told he is out for the next 2 to 3 weeks.
That’s it. If you just said that he moved or quit, at least I’d have reconsidered finding someone else there to cut my hair … but playing games, quit wasting my time!

I went to Amanda again! Again so many compliments from stranger. I recommending her to everyone.
Problem with frequent haircuts is every time hairs get shorter in length no matter how much one tries t preserve it. But short hairstyle do require frequent cuts to keep it neat. But I am trying to reduce my frequency of haircut but sending you other customer on your way: D
Amanda is rockstar!

Cool place with a cool vibe. I didn’t get a haircut here so I couldn’t rate it any higher than a 3, just basing it on my personal experience. Husband got a haircut here and was cool with it. I enjoyed the scenery — music posters plastered everywhere on the walls, and the music selection was enjoyable.

Jedi just cut two inches off my hair. Wouldn’t trust another stylist to do this! Left Songbird for Floyds 99.

Would normally be 5 stars, but apparently my preferred stylist (of 4+ years) got fired/​quit/​relocated.
Called ahead, said it appeared my preferred service provider wasn’t there anymore, and needed an appointment with a stylist. Receptionist got me set up (so I thought).
I arrive early, and then get handed off to a barber who didn’t know how to use scissors. Usually to cut hair, the chicks will hold your hair with their fingers at the length you want, and deftly use their scissors (like they have passed kindergarten). The barber that I was appointed to used a comb to try to make some of my hair stand up, and then used the clippers. Ok, different technique, except that he missed most of the damn hair, and it ended up looking like a patchy yard.
Hopefully my request for a specific skillset can be fulfilled next time.

Samantha Smitherman has been my hair stylist now for a few years. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. I always get a cut and full color! I travel a couple hours to see her
And I’ve never been disappointed. She’s always in a good mood and full of good ideas if I’m indecisive. Highly recommend her!

Leah was my barber. Not only was she awesome at her craft but very friendly and personable. Love my new hair cut. Perfectly styled without product.

Easy location with easy uptown parking. They don’t make appts for men’s haircuts til the day of unless you are getting color. High turn over of stylists but there a few good ones. I’m not telling you who they are that way I can get in on occasion!

Pierre is the best barber in Dallas! If you come here, be sure to get an appointment with him. He books fast, so call early!

Finally found a good barber! I’ve been bouncing around places in the DFW for the last four years and have always just received average cuts. This place is near where I live, so I figured I would give them a shot.
The first couple of times I came here, I wasn’t getting that great cut I was looking for, but I was getting above average, so I continued to come. My hair is very flat, wavy, and the crown is lower than most, so it requires a knowledgeable barber to do it right. After reading other reviews, I saw that Pierre might be the guy I’m looking for, and I’ve been coming to him ever since.
Pierre is the best barber in the shop and does a great fade. It’s no wonder he books up quickly for the day, so if you are a walk-​in, it’s not going to happen. You’re going to have to call in advance, and early on top of that. This place only allows same day appointments, so try calling close to opening. Some people would describe this as an inconvenience, but I don’t see how making a 3 minute call loses to a 30 minute wait as a walk in.
For the place itself, it’s in the West Village area and there is an adjacent parking garage if you need to park a car. The place is always blasting rock n’ roll and has lots of artist’s pictures on the walls. The stylists/​barbers all have a rocker look and many of them show off their body ink. If I were just rating on Pierre, the place would get 5 stars, since I’ve had my hair cut by some of the other people here, it gets 4.

This Floyd’s is nothing like the one in Austin. It’s a bit hard to find (sort of in an alley), and the staff were less than enthused that people were in around 7:30. The place is also very long lengthwise but super narrow in width (two rows of chairs). I was VERY excited to go to Floyd’s for my haircut, as I have recently moved to South Florida from Austin, and was in desperate need of a 1.5 buzz cut while in Dallas for work.
I had a guy in skinny jeans ass in my face for the duration of my haircut, as he showed the front desk girl something on his phone. I’m assuming he was off of work? It was annoying. My stylist said hi and asked how I wanted my hair cut (and did the usual handshake), and that was the extent of our conversation. To be honest, it was more awkward than when someone strikes up awkward conversation while getting your haircut. Also, not sure if it is an Austin thing only, but either this location did not do the hot towel, or I was not offered. Also, before I left they tried to charge me for a Floyd’s cut when clearly the amount of hair left on my head was the result of a buzz cut. Very disappointing overall — this is not the Floyd’s I loved. Next time I’ll just head to the «Clips or Cuts» — whether that be SuperCuts or Great Clips — it’d be cheaper with just as nice of a haircut.

Haircut was terrible. I can’t remember the name of the girl I had, but I think it was Tatiana.
My hair is so simple to cut, I have no idea how she screwed it up. I showed her a picture of my last haircut too! Everything is crooked and uneven now. I’m lucky my hair grows fast so I can take it somewhere else to be fixed once it grows out a little.

Apologies to Mom, Dad, my church pastor, my daughter (don’t ever cuss, baby) and Jesus for the profanities herein. My apology as well to the poor girl who answered the phone when I called in full on freak out panic mode this morning, after I finally washed, dried and styled my hair and realized that it was, in fact, the worst haircut ever. It’s not your fault and I shouldn’t have yelled at you.
*Also, yes, I realize it says «barbershop» in the name, but they cut the whole family’s hair so I thought a trim should be no biggie… ugh.*
And now…
See the photos attached, and proceed with caution. (*I have decided to edit out the hairdresser’s name because a.) I’ve calmed down, and b.) Eh — maybe she was having a bad day and will do better for you. However, the events herein are true so I’m not willing to take the review down.)
What the hell is this «hair cut», exactly?
I asked for a trim — just remove the dead, maybe frame my face, that’s it. «I DON’T WANT TO LOSE THE LENGTH, I’M GROWING IT OUT» — my exact words.
Four inches in some places, 6 inches in other places later — and I get to walk out looking like the effing victim of a blind ax murderer.
My four year old was in a chair behind me. So, I suppose I made the mistake of watching her get her hair cut more closely than the sheer slaughter that was happening to my hair. And when it was done, I was so consumed with how fantastic my daughter’s hair looked and being so proud of her, that I didn’t stop to SCREAM until we went to brunch afterwards and I saw the grotesque hack job this woman did to me in the mirror.
You need to consider a new profession. Seriously — this is the worst fucking haircut that ever happened. Did you seriously not look at it and think «Oh my god, what have I done to this poor girl!!!» I should have known you were taking too much length off… but the two entirely different lengths that make no fucking sense or serve any purpose or shape at all? Really?
I look like the victim of a cruel prank.
I’ve been growing my hair out for three years and I now have to have it cut above my shoulders to fix this destruction. You’re seriously a total jerk for doing this to me. I could have gotten wasted and cut my hair with a butter knife myself and done a better job.
I will never make the mistake of not policing a hairstylist. I should not have trusted you to know what you were doing. A trim. I asked for a trim. Damn you. Seriously.

Since coming to Dallas, I’ve had to find a new stylist to be my regular. Coming to Floyd’s has been a very mixed emotion. The price is decent, an the stylist I go to (Erica) is amazing! She always does my hair great. The reason for the 3 stars is the problem with calling and scheduling an appointment. The first time my partner and I came we had scheduled appointments, I got mine on time, but unfortunately my partner got skipped twice and had to wait an additional hour for his appointment because they somehow skipped over him, yeah they were busy so I have them the benefit of the doubt.
Second time my partner and I come again, and we set appointments with our same stylists at the same time. This time he got his appointment on time, but mine was 30 minutes later than scheduled. What’s the point of setting an appointment if you don’t even get your scheduled time?

Love love love this place. I came here after I had gone to Avalon Salon and they ruined my hair. Mari fixed the horrible color job they did and made me look normal again. She was so sweet and listened to my every request. I love the style of the shop. It’s incredibly clean, everyone is so friendly and it’s reasonably priced! I’ll be coming here from now on and I recommend it to anyone!
