Reviews of Ace Barber Shop

Chris K.

Awesome experience. If you're in ABQ you have to check it out. The records are always spinning. The conversations always Lively. In the Art is everywhere. One of the best haircut I've ever had bar none!

Chase Arviso

Heath gives the best haircuts in town. I've finally found a barber that knows what he's doing with a pair of scissors and is chill to chat with. Came here for a haircut before my wedding and haven't looked back since. Definitely recommend!

Michael Goodner

This place has some of the kindest people working here. They gave me a great haircut and started my day off nicely.

AJ B

Had a great experience. Unfortunately open hours no longer line up with my schedule :( but I’ll definitely recommend here to others.

food is good

I really like this place! Everybody is always super nice, and they give really good haircuts! The overall style of the shop is super cool and original as well! Id reccomend this place to anyone. And they do good with curly hair too! Every product they use works well, and left my hair feeling and looking sharp!

Kimberly Leppots

Looked up google reviews, saw nothing but greatness so I took one of my boys here on the fly. So we called, spoke to Gabe who was supes nice, so we strolled in and WOW!! Both dudes were busy cutting but were welcoming, had great tunes and lots of cool stuff to look at in the meantime. Then another guy who seemed to be the owner came in with clean laundry and I believe a new item for the cool shelf. Anyway, it reminds me of when we were out in New York or Miami in this little whole in the wall spot, with great vibes and great cutters. Boy got a great cut and as a chick, I definitely recommend you guys goin here. Price is on point for the service and chill atmosphere here. Definitely a dude spot, and I'm pretty happy to have witnessed it lol Also, had to leave a review right away cause this is the first spot I've been to that has Juxtapoz on hand. And as yal know, I am everywhere, so kudos to these dudes.

Diego Ramirez

Could not be happier with the haircut i received from Heath. It was exactly how i pictured it . He was beyond communicative, worked with me and the style i wanted before any cutting even happened . the atmosphere is great and the shop is wonderfully decorated. if you’re looking for a great haircut with great prices and great atmosphere, Ace is your place and Heath your guy!

Kevin Day

This place is super cool and chill! They spin vinyl records while you’re having your hair cut! Great stuff on the walls. Just a cool vibe. But most importantly, Heath was awesome and gave me the best haircut I’ve ever had! Thanks Heath!

Chase Arviso

Happy birthday, Heath! You took care of my desperately needed to be cut hair and cleaned me up in time for my wedding. Heath was excellent. Great atmosphere and even better service.

Beef Supreme

Definitely coming back!!! Super chill place, excellent attention to detail on my shave and haircut. Great music as well and a friendly conversation.

Danno Akins

Love this place. It's the only barber shop I go to for a hair cut and beard trim. Its downtown, on 4th street, just south of Central. Everyone at the shop is awesome, and it's a very comfortable, old school x new school vibe. Theres usually a skate video or some other interesting video playing in the background, and you can always count on there being good music playing. You'll definitely want to get an appointment ahead of time. Covid restrictions are still in place as of 12/29/2021. Make sure you come in wearing a mask. The combination of great people, music, customer service, as well as an ever-changing collection of art from many talented local artists, make this barbershop a unique and vibrant part of the community.

Zachary Ginzel

Looking for a great place to relax and get a haircut or beard trim, look no further. Has a unique vibe with plenty of art and music playing, along with great babers.

Lorraine Sanders

Going to Ace is an outing for me and my husband. The shop is filled with interesting artwork, Gabe spins vinyl while he cuts my husband's hair. He does a great job, and my husband who has dementia has a smile on his face the entire time he's there. It's like going to visit and hang out with a friend.

Steven Keady

Ace has it dialed in! Two true gentlemen running the chairs this am!!! Sadly in town for my Mom passing while in hospice in Presbyterian Hospital right up the street. Unable to get my haircut, but if I don't in the next day or two I'm definitely heading back to Ace Barber Shop! Gabe, thank you for the prayers 🙏 for my Mom and family and friends. Kapok

Andrew West

This is the best barber shop I've ever been to. The haircuts here are so well executed and the guys are so friendly and really know how to explain your style to you so you know what to ask for next time. The vibe is cool with local art and they even sell some great products. Carlos is my guy there.

Matthew Legan Sanchez

Ace barber shop is top shelf! Gabe is a fantastic barber that really cares about his craft and goes above and beyond with every cut. The vibe is perfect for the downtown area with a wall of constantly changing local art, vinyl records setting the mood, and a collection of Albu-quirky collectibles. You will always have something interesting to look at while getting your hair cut. Most barber shops in the downtown area have a menacing and almost confrontational atmosphere with bad vibes all around. Ace always has a positive, up, and friendly mood in the air. Good vibes. Cool atmosphere. Great cut and barber! You won’t go wrong with an ace cut.

Alan Matthiensen

I've been coming here for about 5 years or so now and am always impressed. The atmosphere is modern, but relaxing, the barbers are personable and attentive, and the prices are the best in the city. Gabe runs a great shop in downtown Albuquerque. After reading some of the reviews I just felt like I had to set the record straight and give everyone a perspective from a long-time customer. I would, however, recommend an appointment, as it can get fairly busy at times (especially on Saturdays). All in all, come to Ace if you want an awesome cut for a great price not too far from just about anywhere in town.

L Otero

The crew at ABS are great! the place has a very cool vibe, the vinyls played on the turn table and the art hanging on the wall will surly elevate your mood from a long day. And the cuts will boost your confidence when you walk out. This is just a super cool place with quality haircuts. And the fact that its in the city, in downtown Albuquerque, just makes it that much cooler! I would say that the people that complain about the wait, just aren't taking the time to enjoy the music and the atmosphere.

Greg Padilla

Aside from giving you a quality haircut at a quality price, Gabe (the owner) is legitimately one of the nicest people I've met in Albuquerque. He's a friendly outgoing guy who definitely makes you are satisfied before you leave the shop. All around great shop!

Brandon Howard

The place is awesome. The atmosphere is top notch, the barbers are great and the price is extremely fair.

SW SW

Ace Barber Shop is the best I've visited in ABQ. Gabe gave me an awesome fade, was super friendly, vibe of the shop was great, place was super clean and they followed COVID guidelines perfectly. They gained a customer for life!

John Knopp

Loved it! Walked in right as they opened they had me sheared and shaved in about twenty minutes. Even gave me a good recommendation for lunch as this was my first time in Albuquerque. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Hope I need a haircut the next time I'm in town!! If not, I'll get one, anyway. 👍🏻

Andre Appert

The guys at Ace always do a great job! Best cut I've ever gotten in Albuquerque. The atmosphere is super welcoming and they always have some great tunes playing. They're always super respectful and I always feel right at home. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Connor Northness

This is hands down the single best barbershop in Albuquerque. Gabe really REALLY takes care of you. He's the owner and head barber and he'll make absolutely sure you get a cut and experience that'll make you smile. All of his other barbers are very talented and you needn't worry about getting a mediocre cut. The shop itself is RAD and is a real piece of Albuquerque. If you come here, treat them well and tip better. I consider them my friends after being a customer for years now. I promise you'll finally find *your* barber.

Joe Gonz SWK

Really like the downtown location. The art inside is awesome. Great energy and great barbers really friendly. Got my haircut from Ruben he did a great job. Would recommend this place to anyone. Only thing the cuts aren't cheap $20 for a fade. But worth it

William Hanson

***UPDATE*** The owner was very accommodating when I walked into his busy shop; he sent me to Carlo right away. Carlo did an outstanding job cutting my hair. I definitely plan on returning again and recommend ACE #APLUS I do not mind paying $20.00 for a cut; charging me an extra $5.00 for a quick wash without mentioning the cost was suspect. Most places in Albuquerque do not charge for a quick wash. Fortunately, the barber begrudgingly gave me $5.00 off after showing him my student ID.

Joe Cardillo

These folks do good work. The shop has been around for about 10 years, and is super friendly and has a great vibe. Basic haircut will cost you twenty bucks, and pretty much all of the stylists are on point. You can call ahead for appointments, or you can walk-in terms of ttiming just plan on having an extra 20 to 30 minutes if you do the walk-in. They also display local art and have openings once a month, in combination with the First Friday Art Crawl.

Richard Snow

Ace Barber Shop is THE spot for a cut in downtown ABQ. The music is chill, and the rotating artwork always gives you something new to check out. Connor has been hooking me up with super sharp haircuts and was awesome with my 2yo last weekend. Definitely recommend checking them out.

D GR

Everything you like about a barber shop and none of what u hate about them. Great chill staff, made me feel welcome. I heard rave reviews for Gabe there but he was booked. Was attended by Reuben, and he gives a boss cut! Highly recommended, attention to detail, and good prices and service. Thanks ACE!

louie martinez

Alcario rocks... excellent skills detail oriented. Gives great cut also probably because he’s not a bad listener. Laid back, friendly and I wasn’t interviewed, has art of easy conversation. The owner too genuinely welcoming and high spirited. My first visit on impulse yesterday. Too bad for me, Ace on 4th street right south off Central too far out of the way...

Marco Nieto

Very mellow atmosphere which made me feel both welcome and comfortable. I got my hair cut by Connor who paid close attention to detail and did an awesome job. Highly recommend this shop.

Molly Keyes

My husband went in to Ace this morning after getting a HORRIBLE haircut at Supercuts. He asked the barber to fix it and after a short conversation about what he wanted and what it was supposed to look like, she got to work. She was meticulous, careful, and did a fantastic job! When she was done, the cut was wonderful. It turned out incredibly well and we were very impressed with the work she did! We started out with quite possibly the worst haircut he's ever had, and it turned into one of the best. We will definitely be coming back!

Gage Dowling

Great place. One of the best hair cuts I have ever received. If I lived in ABQ. I would definitely go back!

Tyler Zundel

Connor is great. Had my hair cut and my 4 year olds. I know kids are harder and he was great with him. Fantastic price point. Highly recommend and will be back regularly.

chikawayolotzin monica t

I'm very happy with my cut. Brett did a great job. I came in as a walk in & it wasnt a long wait at all. The vibe, the vinyl, nice guys, I will mos'def come back & highly recommend.

JA V

These guys always give great haircuts and the atmosphere is great. I'm only giving 3 stars because some of the guys who work there spend too much time on their phone. My combined wait time and haircut time could probably be cut by 30 minutes if he spent less time on his phone and 100% of the time on cutting hair.

Furry Alpaca

Amazing in all aspects.You can expect to get a perfect haircut, no matter what you are looking for. Amber usually gives my cuts but any one of the barbers can set your hair straight. Give them a try! you wont regret it!

F I

I went in there having no idea what I wanted. All I knew is I wanted my hair to look better and for something to be done about my big beard. They brought me in a suggested a bunch of things and even told me other stores where I can go get them. My hair and beard look better than I hoped for and the people were extremely friendly the whole time.

Rachel Maurer

Ace is awesome. Great barbers. Hip. Gabe the owner might treat you to some scratch music if he's there. Popular place. Haircuts $20, fades $15. I love this place.

Travis Smith

I've been going to Ace for over a year now. Conor is my go to barber and has always been professional and accommodating of my schedule when arranging appointments. Definitely recommend!

Max Jensen

My first time here was the best experience I've ever had at a barber shop. Antonio took his time, gave an extremely sharp haircut, and was incredibly skilled with a straight razor. I feel like a million bucks, thanks dudes. I'll be back.

Jonathan Bock

Nice guys, good haircuts, funky atmosphere. Convenient downtown location. Usually some good art on the walls to to look at (local I believe) while you wait.

Kevin Smith

After moving back to Albuquerque from Seattle I had a hard time finding a good barber shop like the ones I was used too. This place is just what I was looking for. A great cut, shave the neck, and good conversation.

Jay Edwards

I will never go to another barber in Albuquerque! I have been coming here for months and each time I go I am floored by the exceptionally kind and talented staff, the exceptional atmosphere in the shop and their exceptional taste in music.

Carlos Garcia

Great place. Have been here a handful of times, and every time has been great. Haircuts are always how I want them, and the owner and employees take care and pride in their work. $20 for a haircut.

Laurin Beckhusen

Awesome experience every time. Great fades, good prices. Strait razor shaves leave you so fresh and so clean. Been coming here for 6 + years now!

RJ Martinez

This barber shop is awesome. A very laid back and welcoming staff. A great barber shop environment. The next time I'm in the area I'm getting hair trimmed here.

Conor is excellent. Always crushes it, and my cut is always exactly how I need. He puts in the work. 10/10 recommend Ace as a whole, and especially Conor🤘🏻 …

AG Huff

By far the best barbers in town. I tried every other place in town and stopped looking after I went here. Perfect razor fade from Amber.

Daniel Heron Gonzalez

Hair cut was great. I felt a little uncomfortable though in the place. Perhaps it was the high dude that walked in off the streets and acted like owned the place.

Top notch barbers and a trendy shop with different art displayed every month makes for a great place to get a cut no matter your style.

Matt J (mateojuanitogan)

I might like to come back here but $25 plus tip for a basic cut is crazy high for me. Downtown rates I suppose.
