Really nice place, really nice people, they take the time and put in the effort, which is rare these days when it comes to mens cuts. Stylist was awesome as was every staff member I interacted with. Will be my go to spot now.

This is long overdue. Before moving out of Durham a few months ago, I was getting my hair cut by Jenna for over two years. Jenna is great, very attentive to your needs and personable/friendly. I always looked forward to my haircuts because of her. I highly recommend Jenna! The shop staff are also very nice and welcoming.

After a scheduling mixup, the manager immediately called and worked it out with me. I was very impressed with her sincerity and professionalism, and then I got a wonderful cut by one of the senior stylists there who couldn’t have been friendlier. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend! Went here for the first time yesterday and had a really pleasant experience so I will certainly be returning. I was wanting to try a new style and was hoping for some professional and personalized suggestions, and that is exactly what I got. My stylist, Rock, took their time to discuss my options with me, and other stylists (Rachael and Tyee) were also happy to provide insight. I really appreciated how caring, thoughtful, and validating Rock and the other stylists were—I had walked in there feeling nervous, but left feeling confident. Many reviews mention this place being “expensive”, but I would have to disagree. For $35, I got a cut, style, wash/shampoo, and a pint of craft beer. I had previously gone to GreatClips, and a cut always cost me $25 with tip. The wash, beer, and professional yet warm/caring treatment are more than worth the extra $10. Also, the atmosphere of Rocks itself was very cool, which added to the experience. If all you want is a quick, basic cut for as cheap as possible, go to GreatClips. But if you want to get professional insight on new styles, to be treated with warmth and care, or to get anything beyond a simple trim, go to Rock’s.

Went in yesterday and the check in was super easy and the wait was very short. Everyone there was super helpful and kind, The haircut was exceptional, I had long hair and decided to get it cut short, it turned out great and I'm super happy with the way it looks! A great experience all around and I will definitely be sure to come back regularly.

I went to the same person for 10 years before she retired, and I've been looking for years for someone new, and Jenna is it for me. My hair can be very difficult to cut correctly, and she absolutely nailed it. She will be cutting my hair for as long as she works here. Also, for anyone that doesn't drink and isn't sure about the complimentary beer, I simply told them I wasn't interested, and it was perfectly fine, no pressure whatsoever.

I've had my hair cut at Rock's by April for the past three years and she has been fantastic. Always listens and responds to feedback to make sure my haircut is exactly how I envision. Her attention to detail and thoroughness are top notch. On top of that, Rock's is just a fun place to get my hair cut. Only reason I won't be going back is we're moving 😭

My daughter recommended Rock’s since I was in town for a couple weeks and would need some sprucing up. Had a nice pilsner while I waited, a good cut and wash, in a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere.

It's a great vibe with the bar, music, and chill staff. Mel listened and asked questions about the haircut that I was going for and exceeded my expectations with a part, tapered down and a "duck tail" in the back. If you're trying to look extra special for an occasion, I would recommend checking this place out.
