Village Barber Shop

I called a few places around town to see if they take children. There are a few places that are for kids only however, I don’t have too much of a desire to be waiting around with other parents or children only because I know that if my son sees other kids all he will want to do is play and never get his hair cut! Thankfully this place is in a convenient location off of keystone and parking is wide and open not limited to 6 spots like other places such as the midtown area. Which really gets on my nerves.
There were 2 barbers working on clients but, we were greeted right away as soon as we walked in.
Adam was the guy that gave my son a haircut. He was very nice and patient with my 5 yr old and even gave him a lollipop after he finished cutting his hair.
Throughout the time my son was getting his hair cut I noticed the place starting to fill up pretty fast, but Adam still greeted everyone and didn’t seem like he had to rush at all!
We are definitely coming back!

Really happy to get a great beard trim at a low price. Friendly people. An authentic barber shop. Will be back soon. Thanks guys

This is a classic barbershop where men come to get a clean haircut and shave. It has that old school barbershop feel and Adam gave me a good clean cut for only $ 15. They definitely found a regular customer now.

After searching for barber shops since being new in town. Dealing with rude shops that don’t accept children. I called just to ask if they accepted kids. The gentleman said of course. Walked in was created kindly and sat and waited. The man Adam was kind and welcoming and everything I was hoping to find for my son. We will be coming back. Thank you for the excellent service.

Came here about 45 min before closing, and they were very friendly and accommodating. The younger guy at least. He didn’t rush the cut, and even said to me when their closing time was approaching, «I’m not worried about the time. I only know one way to do it, and that’s the right way.»
At $ 15 for the haircut, with the amount of detail and care I was shown, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend this place. Next time I’m in Reno, I’ll stop by here again for sure!

I’ve been coming here for the last 16 years — hence my 5 star rating. This place is what a good barbershop is all about, a place where a man can get a clean cut or shave, the Village Barbershop is where dudes come. If you’re metrosexual and picky about your silky smooth, long girly hair, then I would recommend going to a salon. They don’t take reservations so sometimes you may have to wait in line and read one of their newspapers, Playboy, golf, auto, SI, or hunting magazines for 30 minutes or even longer if the place is packed.

I’m out of town and decided to come here from seeing all of the great reviews. Enzo cut my hair and he was amazing! Customer service was great and the other customers were great. I highly recommend coming here!

The service there is without question to notch!!! Thank you for a great experience in your city and if I ever come back this way I will be looking you guys up.

I just moved to the area and was super stoked to find the perfect barber shop on my first try. Adam does an amazing shave and hair cut every time I come in for a price of 25 $ which is an amazing value in my opinion. I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for a great strait razor shave and hair cut.

Just got my haircut here and I was very impressed. It’s $ 15 for a cut, I waited about 15 minutes, and the barbers were nice. I got a fade and the guy who cut my hair really took his time, was super attentive, and made sure I was happy with the cut. He went above and beyond when trimming the back, around the ears, and sideburns by using some shaving cream and a blade. I’ve never had that happen getting my haircut before. Overall, good experience.

Another great haircut from Adam! He takes the time to make sure you are satisfied with the cut. The price is $ 15, but worth every penny!

Adam knows his stuff!!! He had my little guy looking so fresh and clean. The Saturday wait was well worth it. I’m really stoked we gave this little, old shop a try. We will quickly become regulars. Keep it up fellas!

Knocking this place down two stars and looking for a new barber. First, they raised the prices from $ 12 to $ 15 in the course of a couple months. They also have two new barbers after Art and Bill retired within a few months of each other. There’s currently a young and a middle-​aged fellow. Got a good cut from the latter a few months back, but Enzo (the older owner) is just too shaky these days and lots of people wait for one of the other barbers, which means longer wait times for everyone; and wait times seem to be growing longer any time of the week.

Bill, Art and Enzo are not only cool guys and good barbers, but a real Reno institution. I started going there in ’85 when I moved to Reno and they have the two criteria I look for in a barber shop:
1) Playboy magazine. You want to look at the girls (what articles?) but not porn. I cant look at porn with another man looking over my shoulder. Therefore, its either Playboy or Sports Illustrated for me.
2) Straight razor — any good barber finishes up with a razor. If not, you arent done my friend.

I tried this shop for about six months because it was well rated on Unilocal.I’ve been cut by all three barbers, so I know what I am talking about. The shop itself is fine, the décor is what you would expect from an old barbershop. There is plenty of old man banter available if that is what you like. There are Playboys on the bottom shelf of the magazine rack, so if you don’t want your juvenile to get into those then maybe this isn’t the shop for you. The problem I have is with the skill of the barbers. Bill, who works on the far end, is pretty good. He is definitely the rock star of this shop. He is always in demand and it is first come, first served. Art, the guy in the middle, is the quiet one. I’m sorry to say, Art is not a very good barber. I was cut by him twice and I could have done better at home with a Flowbee. The one that scares me is Enzo. He is a heck of a nice old Italian guy, probably in his 80s, but he’s had a few health issues lately and is a bit shaky. He has actually cut me with the straight razor (I mean actual blood). This happened twice. I mentioned it the first time and he just smiled, I guess he didn’t hear or understand. I figured it was a fluke until it happened a second time. No way I will ever go to Enzo again. Art is at lunch from noon to 1pm, so you have a ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ chance of getting Bill. I think I will be looking for another barber shop.

I have been coming here since the mid-​80s. This is a classic barber shop with three great barbers.

Went in today for a shave, and small trim to my handlebar moustache. The result was a couple of small nicks on my neck and chin, and my moustache trimmed too much, and quite unevenly on one side. I ended up having to shave it off when it got home, it was beyond repair. I would not recommend Enzo for a shave.

I have been coming here since I was 7 years old. Literally for 20 years (they have been in business since 1955). Same guys Bill, Art, and Enzo. Always a great haircut.
This is a traditional barber shop, equipped with the necessary trophy animal heads, an array of Playboy, Field and Stream, Car and Driver magazines, and of course décor that dates back to the early 70’s, all of which in my opinion are necessary for a proper haircut. The only thing that changes in this place is the nudie mags and I swear, there’s something about the combination of looking at a nudie mag, staring at a dead animal while getting your haircut, and the smell and feeling of warm shaving cream that just exudes manhood. I once saw an eight year old get his haircut here and by the end, he had a five o’clock shadow and an ex-​wife.

Enzo, art, bill great people, great place to get a hair cut, Enzo cut’S my hair great every time

So Husband has taken to growing out his beard lately, and it has been getting a bit shaggy. I thought I’d treat him to a professional trim to clean it up nice. My stylist recommended this place, and I’m glad she did! It is hidden away in the back of the Village Shopping Center and is like a step back in time! Husband was extremely happy with the excellent job Enzo the barber did on his face. For FIVE dollars! (Haircuts are $ 12, and CASH ONLY.)
Warning: this is the territory of men. There is no sign that says «Women Keep Out,» but that is definitely the sort of vibe you get. I got the impression that the guys who were waiting for cuts all show up once a month, as the barbers all seemed to know everyone who walked in. Husband will now be one of those men. Enzo is now in charge of keeping his face presentable.
