Selwyn Barber & Style

I’ve gone here maybe ~4 times since I moved to Charlotte 6 – 7 months ago, and I could not be more satisfied. Kristy gives a really consistent cut and is very easy to chat with. Call ahead for an appointment or make one online.

May be one of the worst hit cuts I have ever had. Can’t speak for all of the barbers in this place but Reece did a horrible job. He has to be in his late 80s, cut my hair sitting down the entire time, and rushed to leave when it was closing time. He should retire.
Safe to say I will not be back. Stay away from Reece if you do decide to try it out.

I like this place, I’ve gotten a haircut with several people there and it’s always good. The price is not the lowest around but not expensive by any means at $ 21 + tip. It’s usually better to call ahead of time but you might get to just walk-​in sometimes, just don’t get mad if they are all booked and they can’t help you right then and there!

Graduate from «Cheap Clips» and «ESPN Clips» and check this place out. It’s not far from the intersection of Woodlawn and Selwyn, and right next to the Selwyn Pub.
Guys, go see Reece. He just moved to Selwyn Barber & Style from his old shop, Sedgefield Barber, on South Blvd — where he worked for 44 years before developers pushed him out last fall. It’s great that he found such a good place to keep doing business.
Now, Reece is old school, no doubt about it. There are a few generations between he and I. But let me tell you he knows what he is doing. He is a gentleman and he will help you look like one too, and quickly at that.
I have been to a few places in Charlotte and have paid a lot of money for mediocre haircuts, but Reece is now my go-​to. I am pretty particular about my hair and I will not be going anywhere else. I was a little nervous at first, but Reece is AWESOME. Go see him. He takes walk-​ins, but calling ahead will save you some time. $ 21 cut, $ 1 off if you pay in cash or check (and don’t forget to tip).

Even thought there is a large sign in the front window that says «walk-​ins welcome» the two men there acted like they were doing me a favor because I didn’t have an appointment, even though they only had one customer and no one waiting. The guy who cut my hair was so old he couldn’t even stand up and worked sitting in a chair. I told him to leave the front long, but he started cutting it shorter and when I mentioned that I wanted it longer in front than the back, he just kept going. Then after the bad haircut, he had the nerve to try to sell me some shampoo. This was the first and only time I will ever go to this barber shop.

Quick and easy, good cut at a great price.

I am a salon girl but my stylist has always said that barbers are the best trained in their craft. I took my four year old daughter here one afternoon after she insisted for hours that she wanted a haircut. She went in with a hairstyle I would lovingly call ‘bird’s nest’ and came out with an adorable and well done bob. She did not mind the no-​frills atmosphere. There was a local anchorman and an elderly gentleman getting their hair did, too. Old-​school barber with friendly service at a great price… ($ 15 without tip) and a dumdum lollipop? Good stuff.
–we were walk-​ins and did not wait but they did get busier while we were there with people who had appointments–

Needless to say, getting a haircut at a barber is completely different from a salon! I like paying less than $ 20 for a haircut and am always amazed at how fast they are. The lack of frills at a barber shop like Selwyn’s is comical. They move so fast sometimes I can’t tell if they’re cutting hair or chopping wood!
But the best thing about barbers is that when your usual salons are fully booked for a month you can just walk in and immediately get a haircut.
Especially for men, if you communicate what you want up front I’d wager you’ll get as good a haircut as any salon. I’ve been here several times and I really like Jodi. The new guy’s doing a great job too.

I’m picky, and I’ve found home. Easy to find, moderate prices, Jodi is reliable, cheerful – and literate! I’ll bet the customer loyalty is as high as it gets!
