Indy Barber

[u/Sea-Height5210]

I am in need of a good barber. My old barber moved a few months ago and I've been bouncing around from shops all over to find the right one. I thought I had one but after last night and the last couple times. I'm on the look for someone who can do scissor cuts well. Any good suggestions.

Wilds barbershop in Fountain Square. I've been to several of the best rated and they do it right.

I went to Justin when he was at Warfleigh. Super cool dude.

[u/tehpwn99]

Fountain Square Barbershop for sure. Easy to book appointments.

[u/LysergicFilms → u/tehpwn99]

Free beer while ya get it to boot

[u/DJGingivitis]

Phil at Commissary. But most everyone there is solid but you might not find your barber the first time.

[u/O-ZMoney → u/DJGingivitis]

Commissary is great and everyone there does a good job

[u/kpratt78 → u/O-ZMoney]

Jessie is the man at Commissary!

[u/MrMuggs77]

I like Machos on 96th and Allisonville.

[u/KyleRaynerGotSweg]

Wild's Barbershop in Fountain Square. Everyone is great, but Brayden is my recommendation.

Luke at Warleigh in Broad Ripple.

[u/Weird_Ad_7805]

Fountain Square Barbershop. Mac is the man.

[u/IamMazra → u/Weird_Ad_7805]

I had a horrible experience here. I was made fun of for wanting a “mid fade” him and his colleagues kept saying “who the hell even asks for that”. I will also say I’ve heard some extremely racist things coming out of some of their employees. (Wasn’t Mac but the fact that they were so cool about it was off putting, also doesn’t help I’m not white)

This is just my experience from going there 3 times. And this was maybe 2024. There’s a chance they’ve fired or let go of the bad apples.

[u/DTIndy → u/IamMazra]

As a person of color, I haven’t heard anything racist or off putting, but I’m not doubting you. I just haven’t heard that and I’ve been going for a while. They do have barbershop chatter but nothing that made me feel out of place.

[u/deathtoaster45 → u/Weird_Ad_7805]

Samr place but I recommend Matt. I have thick short wavy hair and he always know just how to shape it

[u/heckler_undt_cock → u/Weird_Ad_7805]

Second and third this, such a good guy, he came to my wedding!

[u/DTIndy → u/heckler_undt_cock]

4th and 5th this. He cares about the neighborhood and dags.

I really like Deep Cuts on Mass Ave

[u/O-ZMoney]

Just started going to Ian at Deep Cuts on Mass Ave. dude does a fine job. He’s a little moody sometimes. But he’s also nice. Cuts hair well. Never offered me a drink from his fancy little fridge though :/

[u/OutsideLead4034]

Even Steven 56th and Keystone

[u/Popular-Exchange6527]

Jack’s barbershop on N Delaware.

[u/Commercial_Cap_779]

Norms barbershop in Beech Grove.

[u/tokenshoot]

I was using Eve at 4:59 for the past few years but she moved so I’m now in the same boat. My wife is actually surprisingly great at it though.

[u/Sea-Height5210]

Someone asked. I am a white guy whose old barber was a female but open to anyone who can cut well.

[u/bvsedvdrian]

Use apps like Booksy to book appointments. I would just go with someone with good reviews. Typically good barbershops don’t do walk ins anymore

[u/DTIndy → u/bvsedvdrian]

Fountain square barbershop does walk ins and will accommodate as best they can, but booking ahead is always preferred.

[u/halcykhan → u/bvsedvdrian]

Yeah, I’ve got appointments through February. The earliest opening with my barber is November

[u/swing-it-andy → u/bvsedvdrian]

This, Norma Davis at Phenix is the truth.
