“ I was looking for a regular barbershop without pretense and found it. Small so you might wait but probably won’t. My partner called my cut perfect. I’m happy to have found a place. ”
“ Honest barber, honest price and honest work! Randy is an old school barber with nearly 40 years of experience cutting/styling hair. Super friendly, great haircut, and quick and direct service. ”
“ Randy gives the best cuts in town. Very kind and personable. Old school-style barber shop. First come first serve. ”
“ Great guy and great haircuts. I came in needing help after going to great clips/sports clips for years, and he helped a ton. Didn't even charge me the first time since it was minimal work. Also, prices are cheaper than any chain! ”
“ Great haircut. Not expensive and great atmosphere. Dog is cute as well. Randy is fast and gets to know you personally. ”
“ First time in after letting my hair get pretty long. I showed him a few pictures of what I wanted and he did a fantastic job. Cut was quick, maybe 15-20 minutes, and amazingly cheap price for the quality at 17. I will absolutely be coming back. Notes: cash only, no appointments, cute dog ”
“ Just an honest, no frills barbershop. Randy gets the job done. I've been coming here for over 2 years now and am always pleased with the final outcome. 2025 price is now 20 (cash only) just FYI. Hadn't raised his previous price in over 8 years! More than worth it. Show him a pic or tell him what you'd like and he'll get it done. Excels at all the classic men's haircut styles. The inside is a bit dingy, but the service is top notch. Cute shop dog too (Wilma). ”
“ I have never left a review about anything before, but felt the need to make one for Big Bend Barber. I was coming off a bad haircut and Randy was extremely welcoming and helpful. Not only was the haircut top tier, he refused to take any payment and insisted he just wanted to help fix my previous poor haircut. I’m rather particular about my hair, I’ve tried a ton of places around St. Louis and have never been this satisfied. Will absolutely be going back. ”
