Legitimately the best haircut experience I have ever had! Cut, shampoo w/ hot towel, neck shave, and complimentary beer as part of the service is incredible! Jose is the absolute man, I will be a regular of his for as long as possible. His attention to detail and welcoming personality makes the perfect barber! 10/10 experience, highly recommend!

Highly recommend Rock’s. Tried many places in the Triangle but this place has the best and most consistent stylists. Reek has been awesome to work with and pays attention to every detail. Bonus you get a beer.

Had my first experience at Rock’s yesterday and it was fantastic. Nate spent a lot of time working with me to come up with a plan, then really worked with me through the entire hair and beard cut. It was nice not feeling rushed out of the chair like most other places in the area.

TL;DR: Read the reviews, believe them, stop searching, book now. This is without a doubt the best barbershop in Durham, and I will go out on a limb and say the best barbershop in NC.
The environment is upbeat and inviting but never in your face. I have been to plenty of shops that try to pull off an elevated barber experience, and something is always off. Rock's nailed it, from the music selection to the bar offerings, the website experience, booking and payment, and of course the cut.
I get a high skin fade every time I get a haircut, for the last 10 years. There are people who know what a fade is in theory, and then there are true practitioners of the craft. Reek, The Barber, gave a masterclass. Thank you so much. Your attention to detail and calm, steady approach left me feeling comfortable and at ease, especially for my first visit. By the end of the cut I had complete trust, and I will be back in two weeks.
The service I booked came with a wash, gentle styling, and a complimentary drink. For the price, the experience, the vibes, and the service, it is absolutely worth it. Stop searching. Trust the reviews. Book an appointment. You will be very pleased with the service you receive. Then repeat.
Thank you all so much.

I’ve been getting fades in the Triangle over the last 10 years and no one does a fade better than Reek! Her haircuts are ALWAYS on point and her attention to detail is exceptional. If you’re looking for a fade in the Triangle then look no further. I’ve been going to her for a year and am so glad I found her.
Also shoutout to Rocks barbershop for being such a great place to go. Thank you treating your staff and customers so well!

Wonderful service! Carintha was very attentive, asked many questions at the beginning to ensure I was getting the cut I wanted, and was very thorough cutting my hair and making sure I felt relaxed. Would definitely come back !

Efficient service and the space was clean. The layout is very open and modern, nice vibes! I would’ve liked for my stylist to ask me more questions (how short do you want you hair, which side would you like your line on, etc) before starting on my head, especially as a first time customer. I liked my cut at the end of the day but think the communication could have been better. Definitely worth giving them a shot and see how you like it!

Man do I love this place. Highlight of my month coming here to get a haircut from Mel and forgetting about my college life worries. Such a relaxing atmosphere, and every single person is a sweetheart. 11/10, would recommend.

I went to Rock’s to get my haircut by someone other than my usual barber for the first time in about 12 years. Let me say, NATE is amazing! Very personable, super fun to talk with, and an amazing barber. He did exactly what I asked. Very detail-oriented and asked about each step before proceeding. I will be returning.

I can’t recommend this shop enough. Everyone is very friendly and inviting but i want to talk about Tony. Tony is exceptional! Not only is he a talented and passionate hair stylist, but he’s also an incredibly kind and thoughtful person.
I needed specialized care due to wearing a hair unit, and Tony consistently went above and beyond to make sure I felt completely comfortable and well taken care of. His impeccable attention to detail, excellent communication, and commitment to providing the best care possible truly set him apart.
Tony worked tirelessly over several appointments, fine-tuning my haircut each time until it was absolutely perfect. By our second session, it was clear to me that Tony is deeply dedicated to his craft and always strives to be the best. In my eyes, he’s the best there is.
I always looked forward to my appointments with him, and thanks to Tony, I’ve been able to experience having hair again after many years. For that, I’m incredibly grateful. Thank you, Tony, for everything!

Nathan R is simply the best! Couldn't be happier with my cut and I had a lot of fun working with him. Wife, friends, and co workers all have complimented me. Nathan made me feel welcome and I can't wait to go back!

Rock is an amazing woman. She is talented and a complete joy to be around. I love taking my kids as well as myself. A free beer with a haircut is a great way to start the day

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.
