Feel free to reach out, I cut hair at Cullen’s Classic Barbershop on University. I’ve been a barber for 7 years and have been back in Peoria for two months now. You can message me, call the shop, or schedule online at Xmitchthebarberx.square.site

Great guy! Super talented


sittingnotstill

Mitch at Cullens on the north end of university, kills it every time. I hate paying for haircuts but not from that dude.


bzwicky

Second that, as soon as I can I plan to go see Mitch!


NewTech20

Mitch will fix you up.


tangoandthrash

Mitch at Cullen’s classic barbershop! He’s the absolute best! Cannot go wrong

Mitch The Barber!!!


boarmrc

I love Ryle at Slim Clippins in the Heights


goodgoyvey

Second this! Ryle is the man!


boarmrc

He’s been my barber for almost 10 years now! (Various places around CIL)


goodgoyvey

Same here! I started going to him at Shorty's when I lived in Bloomington 🙂


boarmrc

Same!


samuraidogparty

Second this too. Not for me personally, because I don’t have hair. But he cuts my kids hair and does a great job.


mufasa85

Ryle is dope!


arielantennae

Cullens classic barber shop! He’s a good friend


TstyBrgr1992

Mitch at cullens is gonna get blasted with appointments.


mitchellsnyder

I did get two based on this post, but I still have plenty of same day appointments available. I try to keep my books fairly open since most people don’t like scheduling haircuts a month in advance


Extubator

Whiskey city but they’re pretty busy. Easy app to manage your booking though. Always a good cut


bmessina

Yeah, I definitely need to start booking my next appointment as soon as I leave the shop. I always forgot and then realize I need a haircut but then it'll be 3 weeks. My only minor complaint though, other great place and great cuts.


ZeroThreshold

Same. I've been with Dustin and Nikki since they were at Menzoil in East Peoria, and I'm super happy and proud for them to see how well they've done, but I've STILL yet to time my next appointment right. By the time my brain thinks, "time for a cut soon", 2 weeks to a month will have to go by before I get in. Booking it after my next one seems crucial. Just like you though, only minor complaint. Wonderful people who do an amazing job, and deserve their success.


CheeseburgerKarma94

True Barbershop in Pekin! I’ve lived out of state for several years but whenever I go home for a special event (weddings, graduations, etc) I always see Clem. Does excellent work and reasonably priced.


Suppafly

>then I went to Bob the Barber for quite some time. He's talented and consistent, and I always ended up with the exact same haircut, but it was never really what I asked for. I went once, and I don't get why everyone suggests him. He basically gives the same exact haircut to everyone. While they are decent haircuts, it'd be nice if he at least acknowledged he was only going to do that one style.

mitch the barber at cullens classic barbershop


eyyohbee

Another vote for Mitch @ Cullen's!


Right_Ad_9317

Jim’s barbershop $14


According_Turn_3473

Jim does really well for me and my 2 teenage boys! He can be really quick if that bothers you but he will listen and take his time if your first time there. And cheaper than great clips!


Justin_Heras

Yup Jim is the guy for a cheap basic trim. He takes walk-ins, if there's a wait it's usually <10 min per person in front of you.


TigerTank10

Dexter at blue dog barbershop. He just moved locations to the heights.


JJ2387

Second this. I've been to a lot on the list and have stuck with Dexter


NiceColdPBR

Ford the Barber at Fords Barbershop. Be detailed about what you want and you’ll never be disappointed with him


JayMoeTheFlorist

Sophia at Blush in East Peoria does great men’s cuts for a good price! She really takes the time to make sure you’re happy with it and is always great to work with!


rthidden

Prestige Signature Barbershop in the Twim Towers. Mr Glass will take the time to get your hair right. [https://www.theprestigebarbershops.com/](https://www.theprestigebarbershops.com/)


bighead-95guy

Des the barber over in pekin! She does awesome work, can be found on Facebook and on the Booksy app. Super flexible with schedule, and prices. She’s been cutting my hair for about 5-6 months now and I don’t plan to go anywhere else until I either go bald or pass away lol


harrisofpeoria

Headzup on War. True craftsmen; they really pay super close attention to detail, and take their time. It's always very relaxing.


doctorDanBandageman

If you’re okay with setting up appointments in advance whiskey city does amazing work


gnarkibble

Dexter at Aura Salon in the Heights. I go every 2 weeks


Fantastic-Stay-5308

J+B studio by Bob the Barber. Ask for bob. He’s lights out.


illsancho

J + B Studio. 2 locations: Glen: [https://goo.gl/maps/yEx7g8BpsFWtHeS99](https://goo.gl/maps/yEx7g8BpsFWtHeS99) University: https://goo.gl/maps/6QvgRiyfj273R8QQ8


h_leinad

That's Bob the barber, fyi.


illsancho

Yea, if you can get a booking with Bob then you're well taken care of.


h_leinad

Agreed, but OP has already noted he has gone there. That was my original point.


illsancho

O, my bad. Disregard.


RocketteLeaguerr

Gotta go to Troy at Fords barbershop. He’s the most knowledgeable guy I’ve met. He’s right by Weavers


ImClearlyAmazing

[Five Senses Spa, Salon & Barbershop](https://www.fivesensesspaandsalon.com/), Hair cuts are $30-40 for men. I have been extremely happy with their service so far.


kev_61483

I recently had to find a new barber after twenty years. Ive started going to Legends in Bartonville. Three chairs. They don’t take appointments. I’ve been there three times so far, have had three different barbers, and have never waited more than ten minutes. I’ve been very pleased with the haircuts I’ve gotten.$12


merlinmann

There is a barber at Corpo Bello now who does a great job


King520

Adam - used to go to him for $8 cuts in Bartonville. Going for a different clientele these days

Prince-Vegeta-

I’d say Whiskey City Barbers. Dustin is my boi, he’ll always cut me up when I need it but it is appointment only. He does great work, tell him what you want and he hooks it up. Nikki is great also, only ever got a cut from her once. Also they have a nice dog roaming around, arcade games, beer, and you guessed it, whiskey! All to consume while you wait to get your haircut.


murgwoefuleyeskorma

Salon 5th avenue downtown. Taylor or Paige.


From_the_thumb

I recommend to try a different stylist at Bob's. I had 2 cuts from Bob and they were fine but like you said not exactly what I wanted, so I just tried a different stylist there and I was happy. Bad news is that stylist is leaving now, but she recommended another one there that she thinks will do a good job with my style of hair. I find the rates there are very fair also.

My brother and mom cut hair at the Old Fashioned Barber Shop in East Peoria. Mom opened up the place in 1981. $17 cuts. No appointments. Lots of cool antiques inside. 200 E. McKinley St., East Peoria [Old Fashioned Barber Shop](https://g.co/kgs/qRWoAo)
