Illume Barber Shop

The BEST barber shop in NWA. For years barbers complained about how thick and unruly my hair was, but then I met Ashton. Ashton 👑 has given me godlike haircuts for two years! He tamed the beast on my head and turned into a beauty. He’s given me sexy middle parts, charming taper fades, sharp beard trims, and even turned my self-inflicted ugly buzz cut into a blessing. Kyler gave me an award-winning (literally) haircut once too! The shop itself is fun and lively. Everyone there is friendly and easy to talk to. Illume Barbershop has made a permanent customer out of me. Ashton 🐐 has never let me down like everyone else has.

I’ve been going to Blair at Illume ever since the shop opened, and she’s awesome. She knows exactly how I like my haircut without me having to say a word, which is super convenient. Blair’s always professional, friendly, and just easy to talk to. She also cuts my kids’ hair, and she’s great with them—patient and makes it fun for them. The shop’s got a nice vibe, and I always leave happy with the service. Highly recommend Blair and Illume if you’re looking for a solid barber!

Blair did a fantastic job with my haircut. She listened to what I wanted, paid attention to detail, and made sure I left feeling confident. The shop is welcoming and professional, and Blair’s skill really shines through. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great barber experience.

This whole shop is full of awesome professionals who have a good time while they work. Eamon is my barber, he is the bomb (educates and listens and does great work), but I honestly would trust anyone here to take care of me if needed. It can be hard to find a shop who will give fades to women, but this group is rad.

What an amazing barber shop! I’ve been going here for years following the crew and Blair. Highly recommend. Always keeping me fresh and the shop banter is a CUT above.
