BARBER EFFECT MERRIFIELD

This is my 2nd review for this establishment. I used to go to their Fairfax location before they opened this one. Now I come to Vienna to get my hair done. Fairfax is actually closer to me, but I always prefer Ms. Tho, because she is so kind and very good at what she does. I always like my hair after I leave the store. Thank you!

Definitely need to try! 👌 We visited Barber Effect for the first time and were very impressed! My son got a haircut from Joseph, and he absolutely loved it. The cut was clean, stylish, and professionally done. The barbershop is new, very clean, and has a cozy, welcoming vibe. The owner is incredibly friendly and makes you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. We’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for quality and comfort! Bonus: there’s free parking right across the street at Harris Teeter, which is super convenient!

Best skin fade in the area! I went to a couple of barbers in a 20 mile radius around Merrifield in May but none was able to do the skin fade i was looking for. But as soon as i got to BarberEffect and met Joseph and explained the trim i wanted, he exactly understood and I’ve been going back since. if you’re looking for a reliable barber/barbershop who understands the haircut you want along with having a great, relaxing experience, Joseph is who you should go to.

Been going to Frank for the last 5+ years from opening week at his Fairfax location and now Merrifield location. Frank has done various styles for me for my curly/wavy/thick hair which include undercuts, side parts, textured crop top and his fades are solid. You won't be disappointed

I’ve been getting my hair cut by Frank at Barber Effect for over eight years, and I can say with full confidence that he is the best hairstylist in the industry—period. The level of precision, consistency, and artistry he brings to every cut is unmatched. I’m in his chair every week, and he keeps me looking sharp, clean, and confident every single time. Frank doesn’t just give haircuts—he delivers a signature experience. His attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care for his clients are what set him apart. Congratulations, my guy, on opening your second location—a milestone that’s truly well-deserved. Wishing you many more locations, success, and continued greatness ahead. Thank you for always keeping me fresh! — A loyal and grateful client of 8 years
