Quick info
About Kontrol Barber Shop
On NW 17th Ave in Miami, Kontrol Barber Shop takes walk-ins only, with no appointments required. The shop opens daily, and a chair often comes with a wait, with some customers waiting up to two hours to be seated during busy stretches. Most barbers on staff speak Spanish, and some are also able to speak English, making the counter accessible to a range of customers coming through the door. Anyone stopping by should plan around the time it can take to get seen rather than expecting a quick turnaround.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return to Kontrol for a clean, sharp fade or cleanup, with repeat customers describing years of visits and getting a son's and a brother's fades done here. Several say the barbers are talented across the shop and that they leave looking fresh for a good price. One longtime client says a barber listens closely and pays attention to detail. Reviewers also note that the shop is mostly Spanish speaking, with one estimating it at 95 percent, though others say a clear idea of the cut gets past the language gap and many barbers do speak English. The complaints are specific. One reviewer describes waiting two hours for the chair while two barbers sat on their phones. Another says a cut was left unfinished. A third says they were told the shop closes at midnight on Sundays and Mondays, not the later hour listed. One reviewer calls it a real barber shop, not a "getto cut.

“If you’re in Miami and looking for a transformation, Kontrol Barbershop is the place to go! Just check out these photos, they speak for themselves. If you want a clean, sharp, and detailed cut, ask for Enoch. He’s hands down the best in the shop. I’ve been going to him for 7 years, and he’s never let me down. Enoch listens to what you want and pays close attention to every detail to make sure you leave looking your absolute best. I’ve always said that when I become famous, I’m hiring Enoch as my personal travel barber, he’s just that good! Highly recommend Kontrol Barbershop and Enoch for anyone in Miami who wants top-notch service and a fresh look!”

“They take forever to cut hair. You can be waiting for 2 hours just to be next in chair. Two barbers are literally sitting down on their phones when it’s just I who’s waiting for a haircut. If you looking for quick in and out i recommend don’t come to this place”
