Barber-Q (Hawthorne)

I got my haircut at the Barber-Q barbershop, at 4136 SE Hawthorne Blvd, on January 2, 2026. I want to let others know about my very positive experience at Barber-Q. I am very happy with both my haircut, and the barbershop itself. First off, it’s not a fancy salon. A good, basic place to get a haircut. Being an older guy, I was looking for a place that wasn’t charging an arm and a leg to cut my hair (I wanted a basic buzz cut). They charge $22 for a buzz that uses one clipper attachment. Great price! I also wanted a place that was very accessible by bus, and this location is right in the heart of the Hawthorn business district. Perfect. I had my hair cut by KimAnh. She was fantastic! She was very professional and skilled in giving me just the haircut I was looking for. After b

Best cut I’ve personally experienced in town. Haven’t been to many places, but I don’t foresee myself going anywhere else! Really enjoyed it. And definitely looked better walking out than I looked walking in! For the record I’m a white guy with thin hair (less and less every year), getting a fairly traditional cut. Thanks all!

Kim is the best! She’s been cutting my hair for 8 years and I’ll never go elsewhere. I love our conversations and the relationship we’ve built. Thank you Kim :-)

I recieved the worst haircut that has ruined my pixie cut. They cut too high on the crown and now my calick sticks up at a weird angle. They also took out chunks of areas that were supposed to remain long so the back of my head looks very weird. Going to another shop to try to fix it, but I'm probably going to have to shave my head and start growing it all out again. The hairdresser also made me uncomfortable during our conversation when I told them I am not interested in having kids, and they proceeded to continue the conversation even though I had tried to steer the conversation to something else. I will never be visiting this shop again.

Full disclosure: I didn’t get a haircut, my friend did. A simple buzz. He liked it. Seemed like a good cut. Staff was friendly. A little pricy for me.
