Great services and price.
Nicholas was phenomenal. I could definitely say it was the best skin fade haircut I’ve had.
This will definitely be my barbershop for the next years.
All of the other barbers are very friendly and talented too (seeing their work).

I had my old review removed but ill post it again every time. There is an old man there who cut my hair and i politely asked if there is anything the shop does for disabled veterans by chance. Completely okay if not but he got very upset and said that hes cutting a lot of hair for a good price, held my hair, and said i had lots left to go and there are no freebies for vets. I just finished the rest of the session, paid and left. The other barbers are great and polite for the years i used to go here but since this incident I havent returned

Fabian fit us in for a quick kid's haircut on a whim. He did a great fade with a design and our son was ecstatic. Recommend, plus this shop is a stunning antique place; gorgous antique barber chairs and decor. The other barber was very kind and funny too, didnt catch his name,

Gabby’s Barbershop and Joey have been the greatest find I’ve had since moving to Chicago a few years ago.
The shop: it’s super cute and is perfectly decorated in a classic almost nostalgic way. From the floors to the photos on the wall then to the layout and the chairs: this place is gorgeous.
The vibe is welcoming, genuinely friendly, and admittedly entertaining, There is a clear and genuine sense of care and respect in how well the team there interacts with one another and with their clients. In my most recent visit I had the pleasure of seeing them quickly exchange holiday gifts. From my perspective, seeing a staff with that sort of natural bond is rare and unquestionably something to celebrate.
As for Joey: I was referred to him by 7 of his current clients. Seven. That’s a substantial number of people (some of whom do not know each other) to refer a prospective client to a specific barber especially in such a large metropolitan area.
Your hair and your beard (if you sport one), is the first thing people notice when making a first impression. Finding the right fit is so difficult especially because it generally takes 3-4 cuts for the stylist to get to know you, how your hair grows, and for new clients to feel settled in with someone new. We put alot of trust in these professionals just as they do in us.
When I scheduled I admit I was nervous because it was a stranger doing my hair. However all the people who suggested I reach out to Joey are people I trust and who know me. And how particular I can be. Possibly the most important thing is to communicate clearly with your stylist. Tell them what you like, what you don’t, what you’re hoping to see when they are done. Eventually you’ll build enough trust to go in and let them have their way with your hair because by now they know exactly what your hair will do and what it won’t.
Each time I see Joey, I consistently received compliments from friends and coworkers on my hair and my beard. Joey did an AMAZING job on my beard: I have a jawline now and it looks good! I’ve had a beard for over 20 years and this is the first time I can say my beard looks the best it ever will. It’s all thanks to Joey and the careful attention to detail he puts in with his clients.
No matter where you go be sure to remember it’s not a business who cuts your hair: it’s a person. My person is Joey.

I’ve been to a lot of barber shops in Chicago and Gabby’s is by far the best! RJ the owner gave me my favorite haircut ever! I highly recommend and suggest you book with RJ. 10/10 very professional and detailed.
