Lee Highway Barber Shop

Not a good spot for a clean haircut. I asked for a fade and received a buzzed side one level and the side another level. If you want a cheap buzz cut this would be ideal but for more classic style go somewhere else. I am not sure if the lady cutting my hair had a certification.

Great full service barber. Beverage, cut, hot towel and head massage for $ 14. Can handle a good Medium-​reg military cut as well. Credit Cards accepted.

Great place to get a nice haircut and head massage for only 14 dollars. Plus complementary soft drinks. Overall nice place with nice people and high quality.

We love Barber Dan for my 5-​year old son. He is the only one I will trust to cut his hair. We followed him here from Harrison Barber shop.

everyone is very nice and all do a good job. you absolutely can’t beat their service for the price they charge.

Excellent haircut for a grown up. John and Dana cut my hair perfectly; however, I brought my 3 year old in and Dan gave him a haircut and Dan was horrible. Believe it or not, my son sat relatively still but Dan had zero patience for him. I will be going back but I will not bring my son there again.

Just moved to the area a month ago and was looking for a good haircut. Lee’s had the best reviews online so I went to see for myself and was not disappointed. I’ve gone twice so far (each time with a different stylist) and both times I was very pleased. Great attention to detail, friendly service, and a bang for your buck at $ 15, well worth a $ 5 tip. The only drawback is the parking lot.

Friendly staff aims to please the customer. The prices are reasonable and include a cold drink, hot towel, and a scalp massage. «Sandy» and «Dana» are the hair cutters of choice for me. Senior discount is offered, and they take credit cards for an extra fee. Parking is cramped in this older strip mall.

Just returned from Lee Highway Barber Shop and I am more than happy with my haircut. Sandy did a fantastic job at a very reasonable price. Mind you, this is coming from someone who is very particular about his haircut and will find every flaw in someone’s work.
Also, they also offered complimentary sodas, juices and bottled water for the customers. Overall, this place more than deserves the 5 stars.

This is a great place to get a haircut. Good prices and everyone does a great job

I can’t believe I have not discovered this place till early this year; they’ve apparently been in business for about 18 months now. I was driving along Lee Highway when I noticed a parked van advertising haircuts with complimentary hot towel, head massage, and beverages. I had never seen those extras in any barber shop/​hair salon in the area so I skipped my regular barber one weekend… and I’ve been hooked on Lee Highway Barber Shop ever since. I not only come here now for haircuts but also for manicures and pedicures. YES! Even men have to take good care of their hands and feet.
I would have given 5 stars except they’re so popular now that if you come at peak weekend hours, the wait can be quite long for a popular stylist. Hence, I’m going to be selfish and not «advertise» this shop too often. I want to keep this my own «spa» for as long as I’m in this area.

An awesome barbershop tucked away between retail shops. They’re very friendly, service oriented and I’ve practically gotten the best haircut ever at this place.

I am basing this review on two visits and I am a male in my mid 20’s so my hairstyling needs are not that high. The staff here is very attentive to their customers and its always been a very pleasant atmosphere. Complimentary drink are always available and offered to the customers. John has always finished the hair cut with a shave of my hair line, head massage with this nifty handheld massager and hot towel to clean any lingering hairs off. They usually stay open as late as they have customers. With tip I pay around 20 or so.

I nice little barber shop. The service was nice and although the barber cut my hair a little shorter than I asked (I have to protect what little hair I have left!) I think he did a nice job.
Surely worth the $ 14.00 plus tip.

Great staff & nice shop. They’re very polite & thorough. I’m now a regular!

This place is the bomb. Best haircut in Arlington. Cheaper than anywhere else around and head and neck massage, straight razor shave and drink all included. Go here.

I like this place a lot. I’ve been coming for 6 months or so and have always gotten a good haircut. The price is right. They also add a mild facial massage after the cut, and offer you a beverage on the way out. My wife also likes the way my haircuts turn out.

I noticed this place open up in that sketchy looking row of retail shops on Lee Highway, just east of George Mason Dr. Now, I’m normally extremely loyal to Chau at the Hair Cuttery in Lee Centre, but she was on an exetended vacation and I was getting a little shaggy, so I stopped in to this place. I admit, I was lured by the promise of a few extras: hot towels, head message, a soda while you wait.
The Saturday afternoon I visited, there were three stylists working. «Sandy,» one of the stylists, seemed to be in charge, since she was sort of supervising the other two stylists while also cutting hari herself. In fact, the other woman stylist in the place, «Dana,» didn’t seem to speak any English, and «Sandy» had to translate «Dana’s» customer’s requests for her. The male stylist, «John,» seemed a bit more independent, but was still under the watchful eye of «Sandy.» I put the names in quotes since all three stylists were Vietnamese and clearly adopted these nommes-​de-​guerre. (Interesting side note, Sandy doesn’t look Vietnamese but, in fact, is and speaks English with a heavy Vietnamese accent. She’s a very nice lady and has an interesting personal story.) I also noticed «Sandy» was the only stylist with her license displayed. Seeing these warning signs I waited under «Sandy» was available. Overall, she did a nice job and was an expert with the straight razor she used for the edges. The hot towel and and head massage were nice extras, but I have a couple gripes. First, the floor was covered with prior customers’ hair. Please sweep up after each customer. Second, there’s no wash or rinse included with the basic service, so I left the place with itchy hair all over me («Sandy» didn’t even brush off my shirt or neck.) Lastly, I noticed that the other stylists seemed to be inexperienced — they were very slow. Their lack of a publicly-​displayed license troubled me enough to avoid them. «Sandy» was good, but they’re going to have to improve some things if I were ever to return.

Long and short — Great Haircut Experience! I’ve gotten my haircut every two weeks since I was about five; I’m 35 now. Therefore, I think that I am a professional haircut-​getter that knows a good haircut experience when I get one. As time went on, I noticed fewer and fewer lone barber shops out there… especially those that use a straight razor, warm shaving cream and aftershave that remind you of the good ol’ days. This place has all of that uses all of that, well! They aren’t afraid to cut your hair — meaning, they handle up on the clippers with authority yet with a deft and artistic stroke (i know, a little too much), and they know how to form a nice, clean fade with no lines and, AND they use a hot towel at the end… a hot towel! It was GREAT!
All for how much you say… 12 whole dollars?!? I paid 20+ at the Hair Cuttery and later went home and shaved my head b/​c it was so screwed up. My hair is short, but shorter hair is hard to cut… once it’s screwed up you have to wait for it to grow out and hope for the best again… it’s kinda like overcooking a steak… you have to get a new steak if you ‘burn the beef.’ No burnt beef here… cooked (cut) just as you request.
