About Don's Barber Shop

On East 23rd St S in Independence, Don's Barber Shop takes haircuts and beard trims on a walk-in basis, with no appointments booked. The shop seats about 7 to 10 people, and the room tends to fill up between 11 am and 4 pm, so waiting is common in that stretch. Payment is cash only. It opens Tuesday through Saturday and stays closed on Mondays and Sundays, giving the week a fixed rhythm around the walk-in format.

Customer Review Summary

The beard trim and shaping draws repeated praise, with reviewers describing husbands and regulars getting expertly maintained beards alongside solid haircuts. Close behind, the walk-in only setup comes up again and again: no appointments, just show up, though several note the shop fills all its seats fast and a wait of up to an hour is common during peak afternoon hours, with more than one suggesting arriving earlier in the day. Reviewers repeatedly describe the atmosphere as friendly, comparing it to visiting family, and mention a mix of ages and backgrounds swapping stories while waiting. The single barber running the shop is called fast and efficient, and pricing is called good more than once. One reviewer recalls getting cleaned up specifically for a wedding. No recurring complaints surface among the reviews.

    “Very good barber he’s fast at cutting hair he’s friendly you go there and it’s like visiting family lol”
  • Bo Bradley
    “Took me about 15 barbershops to finally find this one and he’s been in business over 14 years. I wouldn’t go anywhere else now usually all 7 to 10 seats are full, but he gets to you within an hour at the most. Of course go early is better. If you go say go around 11 am to 4 pm you might have to wait just a bit, but it’s worth it!”
  • Matthew Zank
    “Got a great cut at a great price! The head cutter was efficient and fast! Definitely will be going back!”
  • RaeMarie Penn (Curious Traveler)
    “This was a great place! My husband was super impressed. Really comfortable atmosphere. He has long hair, and a beard which can be difficult to find someone who knows how to maintain the style. Also with a beard trim and shaping, my husband came out with a new found confidence. Thank you Don’s Barber! Plus you can’t beat the price.”
