Reviews of Southern Gentleman's Barbering Co.
I've been using Jackie to cut my hair now for over 1 year. Wouldn't even consider going somewhere else. She does a great job. Takes care of everything. Pleasant to socialize with. Haircut always turn out to be the best and she goes above and beyond with customer service. Can't ask for a better experience.
Jackie did a great job! One thing I hate about haircuts is the forced awkward small talk, but once she realized I wasn’t the type of person to talk during my haircut, she respected that and let me close my eyes and relax. It was so relaxing that I even fell asleep at one point! She did the exact haircut I requested and even gave me a head massage during the shampoo. Her high skin fade was right on point and I highly recommend Jackie!
I have been coming here for about a year at this point and have gotten a cut from several barbers. Every time I have left feeling great. The two free drinks with a cut certainly are a bonus
My third visit here and I am thrilled by the level of service provided from every employee I've had the pleasure to interact with. While waiting free refreshments are offered for your enjoyment while relaxing in some really comfortable decor. The refreshments include a selection of ice cold beers. All the traditional barber services are provided. Including shaves and beard shaping. Everyone is friendly and the space is inviting. Parking is typical for the 5 points area, there is however a small parking lot available to customers behind the building and the barber shop has a second entrance with access to the parking lot. Look for the image of the barber pole on the door to find the back entrance.
I liked the environment even though it cost more than I liked; it was a good haircut. I didn’t have to wait long and staff was nice.
Best haircut I’ve had in Columbia hands down. The employees were awesome, I had a beer while waiting and then had the greatest Barber. Jackie saw my vision and executed it to perfection. We had great conversation the whole time and overall it was an amazing afternoon.
Just moved to Columbia and had to find a new barbershop...I came in and got my hair cut by Jackie and she did an AMAZING job. She knows what she's doing and while I was skeptical of having to find a new barber, I ended up extremely happy because she cuts even better than my last barber. It took her only 15 minutes to do a better job than my last barber who took over 30 minutes. Highly recommend.
Extremely happy and I am pretty skeptical of who is cutting my hair. Regena has done an awesome job and met every expectation. The only complaint for me is the price since I am used to an on-base barber charge, but I am so satisfied that I have already been back. Plan early, slots go quickly.
I have been coming to this place for a couple years now, before I started coming here I used to be very apprehensive about getting my haircut. I usually get simple fades but I have had so many bad experiences with haircuts. If you’re new to getting regular cuts or are unsure of what you want they always seem to be able to give you a cut that looks best for you depending on the style you’re looking for. I have had several different barbers here and I can say I haven’t had a bad experience yet. This place is the best in Downtown Columbia area. Offers a comfortable lounge area, drinks and professional service. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and have already to my family.
Well I couldn’t find my old review so I can change my stars for more stars. You get what you pay for. I finally found a barber that can cut my sons hair. All the barbers were good it’s just his hair is very hard to work with ,His hair is really straight and it’s hard to cut. Brianne does an amazing job with his hair, I am always pleased when we walk out. Thank you guys.
Googled the best barbershops in Columbia while on business in the area. I booked an appointment with Rick and I have to say it’s one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had. His attention to detail was remarkable. I highly recommend this Southern Gentleman Barber.
Had my beard trimmed by Regina, she's awesome!!!! Very nice job & I felt right at home.
I have been a regular for about 5 years now and always have had a great experience. My usual barber no longer cuts here, so I decided to give a “new” one a shot due to my previous great experiences. ALEX cut my hair and is “new” to the shop but has more than a decade of experience cutting hair, it shows. Best haircut I’ve had in 5+ years in Columbia. He listened to my suggestions and gave me the cut I truly wanted. A great establishment all around, if you’re new ask for Alex! He did an excellent job and I’ve found my new barber! Complimentary beer doesn’t hurt either!
10/10 service. Friendly staff, complementary beverage, and a great haircut. Ask for Mack if you’re looking for a good fade.
I started coming here before COVID took its toll on the local economy. I love the atmosphere and all the barbers are great. I have used Caleb and Mack and they have done great jobs on myself and my boys. Their scheduling system is phenomenal in that it can project out any date and time you’d like and then it sends you reminders the day before and day of your appointment. So long as we live in Columbia SC this will be my place to get my haircut.
After looking around, I chose this location based off of reviews and pictures of the work of the barbers here. I was even more impressed by my experience. This was a big cut for me, going from over a year of growth past my shoulders to a short and clean cut look. Caleb handled my hair and my beard with the ease and professionalism of a true craftsman. From the. booking experience to the prices and the quality of the work done, I was thoroughly pleased. I look forward to returning and highly recommend giving Southern Gentlemen's Barbering Co your business.
This place is amazing. As soon as you enter, you're treated with warm smiles and a complimentary drink of your choice (water, sodas, beers, etc.). Jody, my barber, was exceptional. I highly recommend Southern Gentleman's for anyone looking for a professional haircut, friendly atmosphere, and warm smiles.
From the moment I walked in, this was a superior experience. Being offered a beer while I waited was cool, but I had a great time with Regina, who cut my hair and trimmed my beard to perfection. My wife was very impressed when I met her afterwards, and that was the best endorsement I can give.
I was also happy that, while the service was excellent and definitely of a "premium" quality, the atmosphere was that of a pure, good old fashioned barbershop.
I'll be returning for certain.
Great communication on what i wanted, it gets real busy make an appointment. Inviting atmosphere, will be back.
Best place in town to get a more expensive hair cut experience on a college budget. High amount of variety and experience between the staff for any type of cut.
Jackie hands down gives the best haircut in town. Very professional, great lineup. She can cater towards any style that is preferred. On top of the amazing haircut, the conversation is natural & flowing. Without a doubt, Jackie is my go to whenever a haircut is done. My recommendation is go in & experience a high quality cut for yourself. Why are you still reading my review, go book your appointment already!!
My boyfriend recently decided to try this place out. Jackie did his hair and was fantastic! She was a great barber and clearly takes pride in her work! Overall great experience, he looks great and will be back.
Just had a fantastic experience. I was greeted by a great atmosphere and a kind front counter person and didn’t have to wait since the booking was done online. I had the pleasure of having Jackie tend to me with a cut, shampoo, hot lather shave and styling. The entire staff was friendly and inviting with conversation and I will definitely be going back for the foreseeable future. I would recommend the experience to any and everyone! Thank you!
Front desk check-in was great, already know my name from my online scheduled appointment and got me seated quickly. Rick was my barber and he was great. He took time at the beginning to listen to me bumble about with how I think I'd like my hair cut. He made great suggestions and explained the details of the haircut. He had great attention to detail and made sure everything was just right. Best haircut I've ever had and as far as I'm concerned he's earned a repeat customer.
Ms. Jackie has been cutting my hair since March and I haven't and will not let ANYONE else cut it from now on. Her meticulous attention to detail is second to none! She truly is the most personable and talented stylist I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. She makes every visit very friendly fun and enjoyable. I throughly look forward to every visit to Ms. Jackie! She is the BADDEST STYLIST IN THE GAME!! I really cannot say enough great things about Ms. Jackie and my experience with her!
I would trust Jackie with my life. Best haircut I’ve ever received. I recently moved from Columbia and I will miss her cutting my hair.
Fantastic service!!!! Very professional staff, atmosphere, and very clean.
I have come here many times and I have never had a bad haircut here. Staff is generally friendly and good at what they do. Just wanted to say that I came here earlier today saw Aisha. It was the best haircut I have ever had in my life. She asked for my input about my preferences throughout my haircut and even gave me a suggestion about how the back should be done. Our conversation was nice but not overbearing. I would definately recommend her especially if you have thick hair.
We have been coming for years for both of our sons. Michael, Regina, and Jackie have taken such good care of us and always have the boys looking stylish and handsome! Thanks y’all 💜 …
Best barber shop in Columbia!! Jodi is a true master at her craft, and delivers a perfect cut every time! I get a skin fade with a straight razor, and have always had trouble finding the right barber. Look no further. I recommend booking an appointment. Then, grab a beer, kick back and enjoy the highest quality and professional service. You won't be disappointed, and this will quickly become your go to barber shop!
Jodi did a great job on my beard trim and my head shave and straight razor shave. Great atmosphere and nothing better than enjoying an adult beverage while I waited. I highly recommend Southern Gentleman's Barber Shop and will definitely be back.
Jacqueline Moore and Southern Gentleman barbershop always provide the best haircuts and best experience. Every time I go I leave with the satisfaction that I received a great haircut and even better company. Not to mention the compliments Ive gotten following my fresh cut with Jacqueline!
I arrived 15 minutes late to my appointment yet she still took me and gave me an outstanding cut. I can’t imagine going to another barber after my wonderful experience with her this past Wednesday!
Just got me and my 2 boys hair cut today. Service was amazing atmosphere was chill and relaxing. The Crystal my stylist was very helpful with my boys and making sure they had a great experience. And she used her artistic ability to do a great job. When I left the store the people couldn’t even recognize me. Thanks Crystal and southern gentleman barbershop.
5 stars all the way. Jackie was excellent. Took her time to make sure my haircut was perfect. First person who has ever taken actually taken the time to fix my cowlick ( didn’t know you could) She knew exactly what to do without me even having to say anything. 5/5 stars!
Never had a bad cut here. Been going with my son for years. He’s autistic, and has trouble with more single phrase instructions, and even he looks forward to getting his complimentary drink and walking out looking fresh for our daddy-son-day out!
From start to finish it was a 10/10 customer service was amazing. I will be back
I have had my hair cut here about five times over the course of two years. I would describe it as a 10/10 environment, as they have a great drink selection and a great ambience. The customer service is often good too but the actual haircut itself is inconsistent. A "half inch scissor cut off of the top" sometimes means "two inches off the top" here and other times means "half an inch". As someone whose hair doesn't grow fast, this is extremely frustrating. I understand that mistakes can happen and not all barbers are the same person but, regardless, I want the haircut I ask for, not the haircut someone feels like giving me. The clipper work has also been inconsistent. I've had great fades from this place before with very clean lines all around while other times I leave with a very jagged and uneven cut. Although I truly enjoy the setting and the feel of the place-- I don't enjoy paying over $30 (after tip) for a haircut that is on par with GreatClips/SportClips.
Jackie is my barber of choice. She’s always pleasant to converse with and I leave feeling fresh. The waiting area is kept tidy and clean. Plus, they serve a complimentary drink per entry. Hard to beat. Easy 5 stars, recommended to anyone both in passing or looking for a new barber.
Michael and Mack are both amazing barbers! Just moved down to the area from NY, and couldn’t be more happy with the outcome from the shop!
I got there at a little after 6pm needing my hair cut for a picture the next morning. The receptionist told me that they didn't have any spots available. As I described what I needed, Crystal overheard and said she would squeeze me in right quick. I was offered a drink and sent to the chair. Crystal was quick and efficient and got my hair cut exactly the way I wanted it. This shop is one of a kind and will become a stop for me anytime I am in the area. If you want a good haircut this is the place and remember you get what you pay for. Awesome 👍👍👍
I've always had an amazing experience at Southern Gentleman's. First off, how can you beat a place that offers you whiskey upon checking in?! Each time I have had an appointment I have been treated with great hospitality from the appointment booking to payment.
The barbers really know their stuff and have always done a great job with both my hair cuts and beard trims. A little bit pricey but more than well worth it for the experience. Not only do they do a fantastic job as barbers, but are also very helpful when it comes to deciding on any products. Definitely check them out.
Jackie did an awesome job cutting my hair. She Offered new insight and extra time to make sure that I was satisfied with my haircut. Great conversation and felt clean walking out. Will be coming back again
I highly recommend Jackie if anyone is looking for a professional and tight fade. I naturally have coarse hair with a thick follicle and medium porosity. This means that my hair density is lower than folks with thin, delicate hair. As a result, my hair is VERY unforgiving and will show lines or poor blending if the fade is not near perfect. Jackie, however, gave one of if not the best fade I’ve ever received. She is very attentive, extremely friendly, and very knowledgeable about how to care for various hair types. (I swam professionally and still subject my hair to chlorine regularly.) Having visited many barbers and salons with stylists who just nod and do whatever they want, Jackie actively engages with you to make sure she executes exactly what you want. For example, I hate when people completely shave off their sideburns, giving them this creepy televangelist or Lego hair. I prefer to have my sideburns stop at the tragus, which is the pointy part of the outer ear. I couldn’t be happier with the result. You will not regret requesting Jackie for a shave, eyebrow waxing, or haircut.
I absolutely love this place! There is a barber and stylist there named Chelsea, and she is by far one of the best stylists that has ever faded me. She is incredibly professional, and listens to my exact needs. I now have a new regular barber. If you take your hair or fades seriously, then look no further than Chelsea at Southern Gentleman's Barbering Company. 10/10, and would definitely reccommend for a top notch men's cut or fade. 💯
I don’t even know where to begin. From the moment I Day in that chair for the first time, the barber made me feel like we had a report of two life long friends.... mind you that was the first barber. The last Two times I have been there The other barbers made me feel the same. What I absolutely love about this professional establishment is the esthetic feel you get as soon as you walk through those doors. The whole layout is symmetrical and every station has their tools of the trade organized in a manner that shows the quality of care you are about to receive. It’s those small things that gives you that comfort feeling of knowing these are guys and gals that are intricate and notice every small detail. The commitment to keeping their client base as sharp as their straight razors cannot be matched.
I highly recommend this establishment
Jackie is the best. Incredibly friendly and had me looking fresh fast.
This place is awesome.. It opened me up for a whole new hair cutting experience! And shout out to Miss Jackie! She was super courteous and made sure that she went the extra mile to assure my satisfaction.. and her attention to detail and preferences were great!!! I am super pleased and shall return!! Worth every penny!!!
Great shop! Great Barbers and excellent atmosphere!
Went in today, after not having a haircut for about 2-3 years. Skeptical on what to expect as I had grown two feet of hair without stepping into any place of business for haircuts. Got there at 9 to setup an appointment, and Derek took me right away. We talked and chit chatted as he worked through layers, and I mean layers of hair. After some tough work, which he never stopped or took a break or anything, my hair looked exceeded my expectations. I’ve gotten compliments all day. After the cut, Derek told me he had only been cutting hair for 8 months, when it looked like he had been doing it for years. Great attention and determination for what they do in there. Welcoming staff all the way around, didn’t meet an employee who didn’t have a smile on their face and nice things to say. 10/10 would recommend and I’m going back soon!
Jodi has been cutting my hair for a couple of years, and is always on point and consistent. Beer and a fresh haircut 👌 …
Great atmosphere and experience. I'm new to the city and this is the first cut I've got here and I will certainly be back. Had an appt on a busy saturday. They gave me a beer and had the football game on while I waited and ended up still starting my cut before my scheduled time. Showed the lady a picture of what I was looking for and she nailed it. Quality through and through. Repeat Customer earned!
Great Cut , Clean lines , took great care to make sure I was taken care of.
Briittany Pearson did a GREAT JOB , if you have a chance to go by for a visit make sure to book her if available you will not be disappointed ! She was professional and friendly, was made to feel very comfortable and welcomed. Everyone in the shop was great from start to finish never a bad experience and a great way to start off a Saturday Morning ! Brittany brought it all together ! Pricing is right in line for what I would expect to experience.
Had the pleasure to cut my hair with Jacqueline Moore! She was very nice and cordial, gave me the hair cut that I wanted and I felt like I was back at home. Great service in the counter too. Will definitely recommend!
Great haircuts, but over-priced. Went there 3 times, and one of the three times the gal didn't know how to do a bald fade. Still looked good though - just not what I wanted. I get better quality cuts for cheaper at my regular barber :). Love the place though! Also want to clarify price, price is not an issue for quality. It is if you can get the same quality elsewhere though.
I went here recently to cut off the long hair I had grown out over the pandemic. I had Regina and she absolutely killed it! She gave a perfectly shaped and even undercut. I will definitely be coming back here.
The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly. Crystal does a fantastic job cutting my hair. She is a very skilled barber with great people skills. The rest of the barbers are great also. I have never seen anyone leave with a bad haircut.
I had a perfect barber shop experience. I called to book and was in the chair within two hours. They offered me a beverage while I waited, which I happily accepted. My barber's name was Will, I believe... Wes, maybe? Anyway. He was awesome. Super interesting dude, great at conversation, and an incredibly skilled barber, if you ask me. And I believe he said he was self taught.
Going to the barbershop is serious business. I'll be back!
This is a barbershop that you can trust with getting it right. The service is very professional and the staff is very hospitable. The massage and complimentary drinks were icing on the cake. People complain about the price, but I feel that it is justified for the level of service you are getting. Will come back regularly.
I had a great experience with Jackie! I showed her a picture of what I was looking for and she delivered. She took her time and styled my hair perfectly. I will definitely be back!
Crystal is the BEST! She is a GREAT addition to the Southern Gentleman TEAM! She brings a lot to the table and the owner made a GREAT business decision hiring her. Now if you are looking for the best experience in a relaxing environment while you get your hair cut head down to Southern Gentleman in downtown Columbia. You will not regret one min of your time or $$$$$!
I arrived early as parking in the area can sometimes be an issue. No issue today so I was about 20 min early for my appointment. The wait was less than 5 min. and Angela was ready for me. She was patient and talked me through my "uncertainties" about a new-to-me cut/style.
Very pleased with the visit.
Thanks, Angela!
UPDATE: A follow-up visit about 1 month later was not as good as the first visit. Perhaps I am too needy but for the price paid for my cut and beard trim, I do not feel I should have to ask my wife to touch up the work when I get home.
Also, barber seemed less interested in offering opinions/recommendations for my cut.
I have lived in Columbia nearly ten years now and this is by far the best barber shop I've been to. I heard about Southern Gentleman from a friend and have been coming ever since. I was a walk in the first time and got paired up with Brandon. The attention to detail was the biggest factor for me. I was tired of being rushed in and out of the chair and not be satisfied with the end results and that is no longer a problem since I've met Brandon and Southern Gentleman. The laid back atmosphere and cold drinks don't hurt their case either. Getting a haircut now has become a time that I can get away, relax, enjoy a drink and get a great haircut as well. I now look forward to this time every so often and usually make my next appointment before I leave.
Looking for a barber with the attention to detail of a salon? Look no further. Everyone here takes great pride in the place and their work, too. Personal service combined with a killer atmosphere makes for a fantastic barber shop. People compliment me on it as well as ask me where I went. I am definitely coming back!
Always have had a great experience here. Really fairly priced, plus I will never turn down a cold beer while getting my hair cut.
Bree always does a fantastic job! She’s great at understanding what I describe and putting it into practice. I always feel so welcomed with a cold drink while I wait and always look forward to the straight razor shave of my neck and the hot towel at the end.
Jodi Byrd has been cutting my and my son’s hair for several years. I followed her to Southern Gentleman’s Barbershop from her previous shop. Jodi gives the best haircut in Columbia. Southern Gentleman’s is a clean, professional facility with excellent customer service.
Great barbershop with exceptional staff. Rick does my hair and beard everytime I go. I highly recommend him and the Southern Gentleman!
Absolutely amazing. Walked in without an appointment at 7:15 on a whim expecting to make an appointment and come back. I was offered a drink (and was tempted with the Jameson, but it was near close), sat me down right then and there, trimmed my sides, gave me a hard part, shaved my neck, and then only charged me for a touch up. Many places would have charged full price. I was out the door so quickly I didn't even get anyone's name! I love this place, I'll be sure to come back.
Crystal is the best. When ever I need a great haircut, she is always able to get me in and does a fantastic fresh cut every time. If you're looking for a great fade, a simple trim, or any other cut go see Crystal at Southern Gentleman's Barbering Company!
I’ve been coming here for about 2 years and I love this place! Mrs.Brittany cuts my hair there and she is the absolute best! Always has me leaving here feeling fresh(so make sure to ask for her)
Had to get a haircut for a job interview and to propose to my girlfriend. My coworkers recommend here. Zayne was awesome! Saw me as a walk-in and gave me a great cut. I've already had several people compliment me on it as well as ask me where I went. I will only be returning here and I highly recommend getting a haircut here.
I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Justin today. My hair and (4 year) beard were about 3 months overdue for a trim and despite that the results were nothing short of amazing. Justin offered a lot of attention to detail and zen-like patience while taming my mane. He definitely earned my repeat business. Everyone else seemed nice and atmosphere in the barbershop is pretty cool too.
The girlfriend was pleased as well so... 👍🏻
I just moved to Columbia and was nervous about finding a new barber because I can be pretty particular when it comes to my hair. Brandon is hands down the best barber I have ever had and he pays super close attention to detail, which is huge for me. This is the only place I will be getting my haircut from now on.
Oh boy. I love this place. Southern Gentleman’s is not just a barber ship, it’s an experience. A little pricier than your average haircut, but the complimentary drinks (alcohol, ranging from beers to spirits, coffee, soda, etc.) and quality of the haircut itself make it worth it. And if you feel like hanging out afterwards for another drink, that’s fine with them! Gonna miss this place after school ends.
Jackie was awesome! She excelled way above and beyond my expectations. Great hair cutter and personality. Definitely will be back. Thank you!
if you are in need of a great beard trim, go see rick. top notch quality and he takes his time to make sure you are looking your best before you get out of the chair. the front desk staff are extremely nice and accommodating. thanks for kicking the beard up a notch, rick!
I don't usually post reviews but they deserve one plus some. Long story short these guys are my normal barber but made a bad decision and went elsewhere for once and got a really bad cut from a different "classy" barber in Columbia. I realized my mistake and came back to them to see if they could fix it, with no appt, and them being slammed, the manager stopped what he was doing, offered me a drink, and spent over 30 minutes fine tuning my bad haircut. Then didn't charge me at the end, which I did not anticipate at all. If it isn't broken don't fix it, these guys are far from broken, and should be a go to for anyone who wants a good cut for a good price in a professional environment. Plus they have bourbon! Will be back everytime no matter what from now on!
Great place to get a haircut in SC.
Edit several months later:
I originally just reviewed SGBCo when I first arrived in SC from TX, and gave it a simple review. Now that it has been months later I feel like it needs more of a total comprehensive review overall since the place is great.
Location: Located in downtown (somewhat) the problem is that parking is sparse with all the spots in the general area being metered parking. Bring some loose change because the meter maid in the area isn't any joke. There is a small unpaid lot behind the shop you can park in but it is normally full by after 10am.
Staff: Grouping these together because they're one in the same in some regards. From the moment you call to make an appointment or from when you enter the door you are greeted with a smile and friendly hello (no, you can't see the smile on the phone but you can feel it). You're checked in with ease and given a complementary choice of beverage (soda, water, beer, liquior). Drinks are mixed
enough so you're not tipsy when you leave the shop, but they're not all mixer either. I have dealt with many different people working the front counter and all of them are extremely friendly and chatty.
Haircut: Excellent. The barbers will all work with you in regards to what you want and get it perfect. I haven't talked to a single person who has come to the shop who has been disappointed with their hair cut. My barber of choice is Danny and he hooks it up with a good military hair cut every single time. I can just sit in the chair and he does his thing. It's great to have found a place where I'm a regular and they know me by face/name alone.
Odds and Ends: The haircuts are slightly expensive ranging around 25 dollars for a dry cut, so definitely be aware of that before you come in for the first time. Appointments are a must because of the general busy nature of the shop so plan ahead.
Great place to go and I will be a customer for as long as I live in the Columbia, SC area.
Great shop/great people. Crystal Rainwater has been cutting my hair for over a year now and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Best barber in town, for sure. Nobody else at any other shop comes close.
If your looking for a proper haircut, look no more. SGB has extremely experienced barbers both male and female, super laid-back hip atmosphere and a little lounge where you wait with a drink in hand. The hot towel and neck massage is definitely something to look forward to. I've been going there for about a year and always walk out feeling like a million bucks. And word is they're about to start doing chair massages for a dollar a minute. This place is always improving the atmosphere and The service keeps getting better and better. Shout out to Curtis and Crystal Aka Lil Bit. Deuces!
Crystal did an excellent job cutting my terrible, terrible hair tonight. Very friendly and very skilled at what she does! I've been here several times and have never left with a bad haircut, not once!
Looking for a barber with the attention to detail of a salon? Look no further. Everyone here takes great pride in the place and their work, too. Personal service combined with a killer atmosphere makes for a fantastic barber shop.
Ask for my guy, Danny! He'll take care of you.
Comfortable environment. Beverages are offered while you wait, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic. Highly recommended if you're looking to get pampered gentlemen
Superb experience, Nicki warmly greets everyone as they enter; Zane expertly cut my hair. This is a traditional barbershop experience executed by a staff who is well trained and has passion for their craft. They know how to use a straight razor. Lots of fine hair care products. I travel world wide and this is world class service in my hometown.
Fantastic service. I have been to several shops and this has been by far the best experience. Request an appointment with Jackie! I got the works and she did an outstanding job!
Very laid back atmosphere, friendly staff, great barbers! I've never had a personal barber before, but I've been seeing the same one here for over a year now and it's been a great experience each time. Highly recommended!
I'm updating my experience to 5 stars! Jacqueline tamed my long curly mane, even as a walk-in, with no idea what I wanted. She was patient and made me look great!
Came in for the first time today. Great service and great cut. They were kind and courteous. Greeted me and ask if I wanted a drink as I walked inside. Haircut also turned out great. I would definitely recommend this place.
Chelsea is the best barber around for sure!!! I was getting my hair cut by an old grandma for years who kept me looking like I was in middle school and it wasn’t hitting... now I can’t go anywhere without getting asked where I get my hair cut or being mauled by beautiful ladies... thanks Chelsea you have blessed my head.
Employees were very hospitable. Very comfortable salon. Best hair cut I’ve ever gotten, barber seemed very experienced. Ask for Jackie (;
Great place. Great hair cuts. Ask for crystal rainwater. Really friendly and cool gives me a great hair cut every time. Plus a couple free brews while you wait. Can’t go wrong with that. Definitely recommend this place and crystal
Jackie cuts both my boys hair and she is awesome! We drive over 30 minutes to see her because she is so good! We love her!
If you are looking for a great barber I highly recommend Jodi. She has cut my hair and beard for a few years now and I have never been disappointed. Great atmosphere as well.
Appointment with Zayne. A very good haircut and a good listener. The price includes two free drinks from a little bar. No neck massage, which was advertised, but a good trim and shave. Pretty nice for the price. Bring cash.
Outstanding place to get a haircut. It's by appointment so no wait, but there is a nice waiting area anyway. The staff is very nice and you get complimentary drinks. I highly recommend going with Brandon, especially if you are looking for a fade. Hope this helps.
My first time coming here, was a little bit nervous for my hair but no need to worry because this place is fantastic. So worth it,
I would highly recommend everyone to get a haircut from here. S/O to Ashley, thanks again for the haircut.
My fiancé has moved up to SC from Florida & hasnt had the ideal cut to his preferences for the past year he’s been in SC. After carefully reviewing many places. We landed in Southern Gentleman! He can officially say that this will be his permanent spot! Aisha (forgive the name spell if it’s wrong) listened to my fiancé & with confidence she hooked him up with efficiency! Those ladies at the shop are dope! Thank you!!
I'm overdue for a review. Justin is my go-to Barber and he nails it every time! He's the best barber I've had, I get compliments all the time. Be back after the deployment 👋 …
My favorite barber at SG's is Crystal. She gives my haircut all the attention it needs, alway has friendly chat, and gives a great neck rub after trimming it up. Southern Gentleman's atmosphere is like no other, and the friendly staff, leather couch, and TV make it worth the trip.
Jackie did an amazing job with my fiancé’s hair he absolutely was blown out of the water she did it perfectly! Definitely will be coming back
I had a short notice to get in for a beard trim. Angela was fantastic. Got my beard looking exactly how I wanted it. Will definitely ask for her again.
Southern Gentlemen’s Barbering is my go to place for a haircut in Columbia. When I moved to the city just over year ago I couldn’t find a place that could give me a haircut that I was happy walking out the door with. That is, until I found Southern Gentleman’s Barbering. Brandon cut my hair the first time I went there and Every time since. Every time I leave the chair I leave pleased. Brandon takes pride in his work and it shows in the quality haircut you will get. Even if you don’t get Brandon, you are in the hands of some of the best in the business at Southern Gentlemen’s.
Thanks for the great service! I was referred by a friend and happy I made the appointment. Jackie was hospitable, professional and gave a great haircut. Highly recommend!
Jackie is awesome! Saw all the positive reviews for her and gave her a try. Been going to her ever since!
Best haircut I've had in a while.Very nice people and atmosphere.Just went again today (5/19)And very happy with my covid-19 cut.Regina did an outstanding job, and they were on top of all the health requirements.just revisited the shop for another haircut,Crystal did an outstanding job.
My 9 year old son loves this place! We have been going to Jodi for over 2 years and she does an awesome job with his hair. We won’t go anywhere else.
Always a great place to get your hair cut. All barbers are professional and keep you looking sharp.
Took my husband and son here. Best haircut my hubby has ever gotten!! He loved the experience and everyone was so nice!!
I just found my permanent barber here! Her name is Bri and she gave me the best haircut I've had in years. 10 out of 10 recommended you go see her!
Went back here again for another cut. Great staff great environment. Caleb hooked me up with an awesome mullet and cleaned my beard up nicely. Walked out feeling and looking like a billion dollars!
Another great cut. Been coming here for a little while now and I have found my spot for sure. I'm sure they are all great, I have been very happy with Crystal. Front desk staff has been great and communicative as well.
Josh will make you leave the salon feeling like a younger man. Exceptional service and a decent beer selection
Very professional place. They give you free beer with a haircut. Everyone knows how to cut hair and do fades. You have to be very specific if you want a haircut.
Bri Smith is a professional and caring individual that catered to everything that a barber could be expected to perform towards. I would definitely return and highly recommend.
Wow, talk about a 5 star barber. This barber shop is by far my fav in South Carolina. The barber Brandon is a ex vet and he knows every trick in the game. Highly recommend this shop and The barber brandon, he can do marvelous fades, great parts, just an overall great guy and barber in a great shop! Will be going here until I graduate
Jackie is great! I let her do her thing and it came out awesome!! Get Jackie if you can, you won’t regret it.
This place was fantastic, got a beard trim and hair cut. Got exactly what I wanted and it was quick and easy. Will definitely be back!
Had the best haircut i ever had here. I'll be sure to come back for future haircuts. And if you want someone who knows how to really cut hair, ask for Rick Barber!
The customer service is excellent especially Caleb is really attentive on how I want my haircut And he will advise me if my hair cut won't look good
CRYSTAL is amazing, always on point with her hair cuts and great conversationalist. She is my forever barber now, if you have not had a chance to get a cut from her your missing out.
They are good, but it used to be really fun to go get a haircut where you can have a liquor drink. It’s all different now. You can still have a beer but all the family friendly is gone. Really sad that you had to change things
Miranda was super helpful especially considering she had to wotk with me. Good atmosphere. A little pricey but stupid haircuts are free. Will go back.
Great place and atmosphere. Used to get a double shot with my haircut but thanks government. Chelsea does an amazing job so I keep coming back time and again.
Jack and the crew can have cleaned up and ready to roll out
This is the only place I trust to trim my beard and straight razor. Crystal has been cutting my hair for a while and she is the best, but honestly everyone in their does a great job from what I have seen.
Another great experience today at Southern Gentleman. Had the pleasure to get a cut from Dana. Knowledgeable, friendly, good conversationalist. I will definitely be going back again.
Curtis gives a fantastic haircut. He really listens to what you are looking for and works with you to get it right. The attention to detail at Southern Gentleman's has kept me coming back again and again.
Excellent service, great barber shop. If you need a haircut or a shave, they got you. Great place to get a beard trim. Relax in the lounge with leather chairs and beverages.
This place is very popular so make sure you make an appointment before walking in. Ms. Jodi did a fantastic job cutting my hair. Very comfortable and clean service!
Got my haircut here for the first time today. It was a wonderful experience. Very friendly staff, nice atmosphere and most importantly a great haircut.
This Barbershop is incredible! The customer service and skill set of the barbers is outstanding! My boyfriend won't get his hair cut anywhere else!
First time in and they experience was great. They were able to squeeze me in without an appointment, and Crystal did an amazing job. I'll definitely be back, thanks again!
Crystal always has a great conversation and does an awesome job taking her time cutting my hair. Always great customer service and easy to get an appointment.
This shop is amazing. The people working here are amazing, and Matt , who cut my fiancé’s hair, did a phenomenal job!!!
The haircuts are fire from all the barbers especially Mack in the far back left chair. I would've given 5 stars but the lady who greeted me today was hella rude.
I had a great experience coming in here, Joe did an amazing job, great conversations as well as a great barber. Went above and beyond and took his time, I’ll definitely be back.
Ms. Moore is the best! I went with her recommendation and she was spot on! I left feeling like a new person with my hair cut.
Convenient location and great service. I saw Michael, he always gets my beard shaped up perfectly. Friendly staff all around.
Place is awesome! Super friendly staff, and amazing atmosphere. I'll definitely be coming here for now on if I'm up around Fort Jackson for anything.
Crystal Rainwater, go see her. Just do it. Best barber in the state with the best people skills. All the other employees are very friendly and seem interested in their community.
They have an awesome atmosphere and give amazing haircuts. Derek is one of the best barbers I've ever been to
Great service and amazing barbers. Crystal always gives a great haircut, and this is one of the few places that still shaves you with a straight razor.
I've been coming here for about a year now. The staff here is absolutely fantastic and I have never had a cut here that I was disappointed with. Would absolutely recommend it to a friend.
Jaqueline Moore was able to squeeze me in last second and give me a much needed haircut. Great service, will definitely be going back.
Just got my haircut at Southern Gentleman's and it is great. Ashley is very nice and knows what she's doing. Highly recommend!
Absolutely love this place. I recommend Brittany, her attention to detail is unmatched in the area. I will be going back for my next cut and all after that!
Had a great haircut with Jacqueline, she handled my long curly hair very well!
Jackie did an excellent job on my hair and was very personable the entire time. She knew exactly what to do with my hair.
This is now my go to place in Columbia, SC. They ask questions about you want, and ACTUALLY listen to your answers! Went 6 times over 3 months and never had a bad cut
This is my second time visiting Jake here, and it's always a killer experience! They offer a refreshment with every visit, and they always exceed expectations. I'm now a regular!
Chelsea is an amazing barber! She cuts and trims my hair regularly and does a great job everytime!
Love getting a good haircut and adult beverages while getting your haircut. They also do straight razor shaves . It's a top notch place!
10/10 recommend, great haircut and even better people, Jackie did an amazing job and will definitely come back
Ask for Jodi. She did an amazing job with my hair and then gave me some recommendations for things to do since I was just in Columbia for a short time.
My boyfriend has been going to this shop since it opened and we couldn’t be more pleased with the services provided. Customer service and atmosphere is superb! Thanks SGBC for all the great services over the years!

Talk about a neighborhood staple. If you haven’t been here, do yourself a favor. Great folks, great atmosphere, great product. It’s literally the only place I’ll go to so long as they let me.
Old school barber shop atmosphere with a modern twist. Southern hospitality at it's finest, and my beard looks perfect every time.
