Sanford Barber Shop

Horrible haircut by an older gentleman who has been "cutting hair for over 60 years". I asked for a SKINfade, what I got was a high fade from side view but the back was just kinda neglected and longer than the sides? When he was finished he didn't even show me the back with a mirror, but that wasn't necessary since it was so bad I could see the back from the front view. I smiled, tipped $7 on my $25 "skinfade" and immediately left, called and had my sister fix my hair. While I could have perhaps asked the barber to do so, he already showed me what he was capable of and I did not want to end up buzzing my entire head. I thought this location would be great because it's been around so long, great reviews, fair prices and even my barber had apparently been cutting hair for over 60 years but boy was I let down. Sanford Barber shop Never again. Go elsewhere if you're looking for a skinfade.

I've been going to Otto's barber shop in Sanford for the past 5 -6 years, until I walked in back in September only to be told it was the last day of business and I received my final haircut from the establishment. However, I was glad to hear that one of my favorite barbers at Otto's, Shawn, was going to be working at Sanford Barber Shop. I finally made it in today and was glad to see the familiar face. The shop itself is an actual old school, traditional barber shop. Not one of the ever so trendy "faux" old Dapper Dan, exuberantly overpriced, pretend ol' skool places that plagues the downtowns of America (I'm honestly not talking about any establishment in general). Keep in mind a simple, traditional hair cut isn't new science, so it shouldn't be treated and charged like it is one. Anyway, Shawn had me in his chair within in 15 min upon my arrival. I wear a mild pompadour and Shawn shaped it back into place perfectly with just a short description of my preferences. He really did an amazing job, like he always has, and I sure am glad he found a new home at the Sanford Barber Shop!

Great shop with old time barbershop feel. Shawn does a superb job. I highly recommend him.

Dante was the dude doing haircuts. Very professional, super friendly, and did a nice skin fade for me! Reasonably priced, nice shop, honestly really impressed with my first cut there. Thanks Dante!

Walked in without an appointment the Saturday before school started and waited only a few minutes. Caught off guard by the fact that the barber did not accept bank cards but when I sent my son to find his mother for cash, a second barber produced a cell phone and processed the payment. At $20 for a 13-year-old student cut I wouldn't have tipped with cash but being able to pay electronically allowed me the flexibility to do so.

I'm from out of town and we were just strolling thorough when we spotted the place. I was overdue for a haircut, so I gave them a try. I forgot the young man's name already (because I'm not a young man) but he delivered a great haircut as well as great experience!

Super easy to book online. I didn’t have to wait at all when I got to the barbershop. Dante was friendly, efficient, and skilled — my grandson got a great haircut! Highly recommend The Sanford Barbershop!

My husband and I went to downtown today so he could get his hair and beard trimmed, and we were so happy to see this barber shop open on a Sunday! Dante cut his hair and it looks amazing. We all had a great conversation too. My husband has now found his preferred barber!

Dante does excellent work. That man is an asset to that shop as far as I’m concerned. He does walk ins and appointments. The shop is even open on Sundays.

My boyfriend came in the other day and got a cut by Dante, AMAZING! He did such a great job and we both love the haircut. Very professional, friendly, and great atmosphere. This is the place you want to get your hair cut in downtown Sanford. We were super happy to see it’s open on Sunday’s too

Dante does an excellent job with my son! Very patient and great with young kids! No other barber I’d take my son to!

Dante was extremely nice to my son and did a wonderful job on his hair:) will definitely be back

Absolutely phenomenal old school styled barber shop. They did a great job, have a great background and decorations, and at the end of the day, the price is great. I'll definitely be going back again!

I got my haircut by Dante and he knew what he was doing. I walked in and just needed my hair fixed and shaped and he immediately started getting to work and naturally knew what to do and listened to everything I said and this may have been one of the best haircuts i’ve ever had. Thank you man. You da best!

Dante was incredible! Great conversation and very professional and desiccated! Most talented guy I’ve seen since moving to Orlando! Until next time.

Dante was Amazing! Came in With a Picture and he got almost perfect and it was his first time attempting it First time there and will definitely go back. Great Environment. Great prices. Overall great place!

Walked in on a Saturday and instantly got a fresh cut. I had no idea what I wanted and Dante was able to guide me to a decision. Enjoyed the friendly conversation, excellent service, and classic aesthetic.

Walked in for a trim up because the place looked cool, and had no customers. I don't know her name, but a middle aged, very southern woman, cut my hair. Told her I liked a military style, straight up the sides, just touch up the top, because I like something to pull forward. She was very pleasant, good conversation, but I got "the cut". Not what I asked for, and the longest hair on my head doesn't exceed an 1 inch now! Absolutely horrible cut. Rushed for no reason.

Pat is a great barber, great conversation great place to go for men. They also have beautician for women. Give it a try

Super great environment! Super great haircut!
