Came down all the way from Kingman az to hook with them they cleaned me up real nice gonna have to go with em today again
Derrick is a guaranteed barber are the other barbers there. It's a treat that it's located inside the Tarkanian Basketball Academy as it provides a added caveat to the shop. The service is wonderful and recommend to any coming or looking for a more than decent cut not too far off the strip.
I booked an appointment at this location about a week in advanced because I was going to be in Las Vegas for two days for a work event. I wanted to have a fresh haircut before my presentation Friday morning, so I booked a 9am appt. I showed up to the barbershop early (Still Closed), waited for about 10 minutes, then realized the barber cancelled my appt. If you can’t fulfill early appts, the block them off. I was really counting on this and was let down. Won’t be back.
This is without doubt the best barbershop I have ever been to in North America the guys here are awesome and the cut is out of this world if you're in Las Vegas there is no other barbershop you should visit PERIOD not only do these guys have incredible skills cutting both hair and beards they offer fantastic conversation. Value for money and the best haircut you will have this side of Europe
While visiting Las Vegas and all it lights and restaurants I needed a haircut and the first place that popped up on my search list is Ballin Fades. This local hot spot is the perfect place to come get a fade done right. I was lucky enough to walk-in and have the owner Derek, cut my hair. Derek was on point with his fade. All I told him is that I needed a shadow fade with a 1 1/2 on the top and he knew exactly what to do. My cut only took about 30 minutes. The lines were straight and the blend in the fade was perfect. He was able to keep my waves and if you know anything about waves that's really important. This man has skills and I saw the same from the other people getting cuts in the other chairs.
Ballin Fades has been around for about 6 years and Derek has been around a lot longer than that, so I know I got a cut from a real local. The reason I know this, is because he straight up had a conversation with me while getting my cut. If you have ever been to a good barbershop, that's a good sign. The place was clean and active with young basketballers going in and out of his shop that always showed him respect, and he returned that respect with "I got you big man!" This place is super friendly and I love local businesses that fight during tough times like COVID.
I wish you all the best of luck Derek, keep on doing what you're doing. If you're in town and you need a cut, support a local barbershop like Ballin Fades.
