Fortune Cat Barbershop — Local services in Denver

Fortune Cat was mentioned to me by a friend in the neighborhood. He never used their services, but he thought I might like it because the location is close and the place looked cool & trendy. I figured, why not... In hindsight, I should have NOT gone.

This was hands down the worst experience I have ever had. The barber cut more hair then requested, and gave me the WORST clean up/fade ever. Towards the end of the cut, he never offered to hold up the mirror to show his work. So when I got home to inspect the cut, I looked in the mirror and was shocked. Long... uneven... just horrible. I was honestly appalled that he let me leave the shop looking like that.

I called and asked to come back to have it cleaned up, and they were nice about it and tried their best, but they still left it long & uneven.

I didn't have it in me to tell him that it still looked bad while in the chair for a second time, so I ended up going to a different spot.

Recently, another neighborhood friend and I were talking about haircuts for his upcoming wedding, and Fortune Cat came up. I wanted to warn him not to go there. Ironically, he already had a bad experience there. I wish I would have spoken to him instead of my other neighbor so I wouldn't have wasted my...

If you want a high quality haircut by the best in the industry, then I highly recommend scheduling your next cut at this shop. I took my son here in preparation for school picture day and my expectations were beyond exceeded. Barber Zach gave him an incredible cut and has the right amount patience (not easy to cut kids hair) to do a fabulous job. The owner Jesse Diaz assisted Zach and I was completely blown away over Jesse’s knowledge, attention to detail, and ability to explain exactly what direction they were taking with the cut. These barbers not only know their craft so well they are also very passionate about what they do and it really shows. The customer service is top notch 👌 They also had Disney+ on for my son to watch (unexpected perk :) Disclaimer: please If you want to take your kid here make sure you call ahead and specify it’s for a kid and what his age is. They will have to match you with a barber willing and skilled to do a kids cut, not all the barbers there will do kid haircuts so make sure to ask first before scheduling. Also, like a lot of barbershops, It’s cash only so...

$40 for a haircut. Don’t even make any sense. Update - called to see if they adjusted their price within reason and apparently they went up $10-$50 for a haircut (this is not Manhattan or Rodeo Drive). There’s just no reason to charge that much for a 15 to 20 minute haircut when I have no idea if the haircut would even be any good. I will be happy to give my hard earned money to another business that does not price gouge. And btw I’m not grumpy, just tired of you millennials and your entitled pricing structures. How about a first time barber discount to see if the barber is worth $50 before thinking you deserve celebrity barber pay? Not that I’d ever come here anyway but it just makes good business sense. And another thing what’s up with not accepting debit or credit cards? That’s a...
