The level of talent has definitely gone down at the Brookside location. They only have 2 employees plus the manager. When I got home I noticed my hair wasnt even and had to cut off some stragglers that they missed. Seems more like a sports clips kinda place now but still charging a premium. Definitely not worth the price of admission anymore.

Really enjoyed the experience. I called ahead and was able to schedule same-day service. I was welcomed with a fridge full of beer ages, including my favorite, PBR. Ree was super helpful in hearing out what I had in mind for my hair and then she nailed the look I was going for! Will definitely be going back on the regular.

Im the type of person that when I find someone that provides a quality service I continue to go back and I dont trust anyone but Catie with my hair. She does an amazing job, and honestly our conversation is so good that I forget about the haircut and then realize she is done.

Nice hair cut

Though it is slightly pricier than my I usually go for, the products and service is SO worth it. My hair was soft and shiny for weeks, the atmosphere is amazing, the dye lasts much longer, and the hairstylists are amazing. My new go to for a long time!

Sadie gave me a great haircut. I have longer, straight hair and most stylists have a tough time with it at first. She is a true professional and is an extremely skilled stylist.Highly recommend her and Chop Tops

I arrived in KC with no knowledge of a great local hair place. Upon a recommendation, I tried Chop Tops. This turned out to be a blessing. The artists there are efficient, friendly, and expert. My hair doesn’t require much, and I’m sure I disappoint them with my elementary requests. But they accept the task with every bit of workmanlike dedication as they would a fancy assignment. This is a strong recommendation.

Ive been a client of Choptops for a couple of years now. Ive been really pleased with the haircuts and the chill atmosphere.

Walked in today to get a haircut and it didnt take long to realize why this place has so many positive reviews. Catie was my hairdresser and she gave me the best haircut that I didnt get in a long time. She really knows her stuff and tried to understand how I wanted my hair to look like, and as a result, a perfect haircut!It is important for me to have a feeling that I got a decent haircut while walking out of the saloon and felt the same today. I would recommend this place, as the prices are decent which includes a complementary drink.

Had a wonderful experience here. Got my hair cut with Hunter. She was great, friendly, and skilled. The last few styles Ive gotten werent exactly what I was looking for and with todays cut, she hit it right on the nose. Definitely will be using Chop Tops as my go to.

Ask for Missy or Kat!!!Fantastic experience.From customer service to cut and style these folks are super nice and are very well trained. Missy, Kat, and Brooke are very knowledgeable and work with a variety of hair types offering a professional experience. Upgrade to the scalp and tea tree package for a nominal up charge and feel like a million bucks when you leave.

Staff is super friendly, helpful and they offer a free drink for your service. I only wish they would stop charging me $20 for an undercut when Im not getting a full undercut. It takes about 5 min to re-shave my sides and undercuts are typically more shaving/work.

Love this place. Such a reasonable price for top quality barbers!

Great staff and a great haircut! Catie consistently does a great job with my hair, and conversation is always easy. Definitely recommend, and whats not to love when a complimentary beer is in the mix?

I take both of my kids here on a regular basis and have seen multiple stylists. The staff is always really nice and I love their online booking systems.Most of the stylists really know what they’re doing and listen to what you want. There’s only been one time where I didn’t feel listened to. They’ve always given my kids and great cut. I’m very big on not making them look bad...like their mom cut their hair. They get compliments all the time about how cool their cut is. (Both of my kids are boys)

Melissa is terrific! Clean, friendly atmosphere with superb style.

Good quality hair cut, very interesting decor, and they serve beer

Been coming here for years and Ive always got great service and a great hair cut. After years of trying the places in strip malls, Im happy to say Ill never go back to one of them. Sure, this is a few more dollars, but worth it for the included drink, shampoo and professionalism. I send everyone here who asks for the best place to get a cut.

Believe me when I tell you this, BEST SERVICE ON THE PLANET. I used to have a beard down to my chest and needed more beard oil so i looked up places that sold beard oil and this was at the top of my list. I scheduled a hair appointment to tame my wild hairy beastly face and by god they did just that and more. If youre a man with a beard and you want that sucker tamed and looking proper, look no further. They have the product for your beard and hair. They have the know how to keep you looking like dapper gentleman. I have never found a single mistake with a single cut or trim. Gentleman, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. If youre satisfied with your mediocre great clips cut then who am I to judge, but if you want the best service and to look and feel like a million bucks then go here. They have the friendliest staff by far. The girls are very beautiful and theyll turn you from a gruesome lack of style clown into a handsome stud. This is no joke. I miss living near this place.

Catie is amazing! Been there 3 time now and always with Catie, per my request. Any one who is after some sweet @$$ hair please go check them out. Super friendly, good for the $.

Great haircut. Clean, friendly and experts. Will be a regular patron.

Came in just to get a bottom cut, Hunter was my Hairdresser and she did a wonderful job. She also gave me some general hair tips which I really appreciate, and the price was very fair, thank you. (:

What a fantastic place to get a haircut. Melissa did an amazing job with my beard trim and my hair. She wasnt rushing me or being dismissive when I told her how I wanted it done. Plus she had a great sense of humor and could hold a conversation! The staff at the front desk were more than helpful and accommodating. The shop itself has a very vintage feel to it which was refreshing. Plus they offer military discount! I am new to the city and get my haircut once a month, so its a good feeling to know that I have already found my new barber. FIVE STARS!!!

Wasnt the most impressed, but my expectations may have been to high or I may not have conveyed what I was looking for to the artist. I have grown my beard out for sometime and needed a clean up and style. I thought I had explained what I was looking for, but seemed the artist was a bit timid in the services. Im sure it was a simple miscommunication, the staff was very nice an accommodating. If you going I would suggest to be clear, I think she was a bit afraid to take any length of the beard and shape it to what she thought would look good for my face shape.

I needed my hair cut as my regular person was unavailable. I was referred to Chop Tops and was very impressed with the results. I would recommend to anyone.

Great shop. They are super friendly. They send me a text when I schedule an appointment, and a reminder the day before. Great location and friendly staff. Cant go wrong.

Not only is Chop Tops filled with awesome, funky decor, its filled with awesome, funky people. Sadie Rucker is the only stylist I want cutting my hair. Every cut is always so perfect and dreamy. Brb I need to go make another appointment ...

Inviting and comfortable. While you wait they offer complimentary beverages. Molly did s great beard trim for Chris and she opened all the beard oils so he could smell each one. We went with a vanilla cigar blend that was reminiscent of spiced rum. Molly made him very comfortable and he of course chose water over Pabst blue ribbon.

I dont think youre going to find a better place, especially at this price, to get your hair cut in KC. These ladies crush it every time! Ive been going to Chop Tops for 5 years now and wont go anywhere else. If you go here or 39th youre going to be taken care of. It has a rockabilly vibe/theme - Craftsman rolling tool chests for cabinets, hot rods and band playbills on the walls, and Johnny Cash and the like playing. Did I mention how great their stylist are? Theyre amazing! Ive had two main ladies in 5 years that I mostly go to but Ive had about a dozen different ones due to scheduling (due to me last-minute trying to get a hair cut) and ALL of them produce amazing work! They also sell a lot of excellent male hair care products that you arent going to find just anywhere. I get my shampoo, conditioner, beard brush, beard shampoo, and beard balm from here. You could save $5 and go to Sport Clips or you could get an amazing haircut youre going to love with excellent service here. Id go here if I were you.

Awesome place, first visit and right off the bat they have impressed me. Atmosphere is spot one, place is clean, employees polite and knowledgeable. Hannah was great, and I will be returning.Good selection of products on the shelves and ask for your input in what you want used in your hair. Front desk staff where attentive and friendly asking if I wanted a complimentary beverage.

First time going and wow! Amazing service! Nice people. Did an excellent job on my cut. Will be my wig splitting spot from here on out! Hannah B. Is awesome! Thanks for the dual hard part!

Im new to the area and couldnt be happier with this place. Great cut and awesome service. Stylist gave a lot of good advice and did a great job with the cut. Got a new loyal customer out of this visit

My hair is a bit of a unique style, so its tough to find someone up to the challenge. Molly is my stylist, and she knows her stuff! Shes a super sweet person and did an amazing job on my hair. The atmosphere is great, the staff is friendly, and its a great place for a hair cut! Definitely a recommend for anyone.

Great service, decent prices, comfortable atmosphere. They play old movies and classic rock in the background which is pretty cool. Must try!

Great custom haircuts and affordable pricing. I would recommend you check them out.

No same day appointment

I had my haircut with Emily twice now and I love it! I received several compliments on both of my haircuts. Emily is highly professional and courteous. The salon is very nice and I like their decor, very interesting posters to look at. Finally, their hair products (I forgot the brand, lol) smell sooo good! Some day I splurge and buy them.

I love getting my hair cut here! You can relax with a glass of wine or beer as youre waiting and the stylists are all very friendly and professional. Also, they arent trying to sell you products you dont need, like Ive had done at other hair cutting places.

The staff is wonderful!! I always leave feeling great and looking good :)

I use to see Emily on 39th, unfortunately she is no longer there, but I found a new Emily at the Brookside location.

Went to them for the first time a couple months ago, the service was great. My haircut was great! Id recommend to anyone!

I have had fantastic experiences at Chop Tops in Brookside. The people are friendly, they get me an appointment as soon as they can, and they are great with follow-up. I was referred to this salon by a friend and specifically to Kayla and I have been so happy about every appointment. Kayla is fun and easy to work with and she really listens to my questions and suggestions. She absolutely wants me to be happy and knows how to cut my hair really well. The price for a haircut is totally reasonable and the salon location and environment is great. I would absolutely recommend this salon to others and I would encourage them to try and get an appointment with Kayla!

I would seriously recommend checking out Chop Tops Brookside if you are looking for a fresh cut, good conversation, and the best stylists in the KC metro. I went in and was greeted by the sweetest lady. She offered me a selection of drinks, including a cold PBR! Such a good experience, and Hunter rocked my cut. Re-think spending youre money anywhere else, the best is right here! 10/10 recommend and will be back.

Margaret really listened and was super nice. Released 12 inches and Really happy with it!!!

Great place and good people. Hannah is who I see and she is knowledgeable and friendly. She always does a great job. They also carry a solid collection of good products to cover you from hair to beard.

I used to go to Great Clips, but recently two really bad haircuts there in a row. I then remembered meeting with my friend for coffee several months back right after he got done with his appointment at Chop Tops. His hair/beard combination looked so professional, stylish and clean... so I had my first haircut from Chop Tops back in December; Hannah was my stylist. Lets just say I am never going anywhere else as long as I live remotely close to Waldo, and I have my second appointment tonight :) 25 bucks is extremely reasonable for the quality of the cut and the wonderful shampoo you get at the end. Also, they put some AWESOME product in my hair the first time to style it. I loved it and considered buying, but they encouraged me to think about it and come back if I wanted to purchase it... thats so cool that they didnt try to push a sale on me before I walked out the door!

Great service and reasonable pricing. It was nice finally finding a hair stylist that can actually assist with guiding you to a different hair cut. Everywhere else I go, if I dont have a precise picture, its hopeless.

My boyfriends hair looks amazing after hes been to see Emily! Shes great!!

Great overall experience. The girls are knowledgeable of todays fashion and arent scared to share. Great attention to detail. Reasonably priced for the services provided!

Ive had two haircut experiences before Chop Tops, my mom and great clips. After coming here, Ill never go back. Ive had the same haircut for 20 years and gave my stylist the freedom to do what she thought looked good. She was decisive and the result was awesome. Ill be back for my third time tomorrow!

I got my wedding do at Chop Tops and they were fantastic! They went out of their way to make me feel at home, put a smile on my face and give me awesome 60s style hair for my 60s style wedding. I highly recommend them for special occasion styles!

Absolutely loved chop tops. My service was great, Hannah Beth cut and styled my hair exactly how I wanted it, the atmosphere is really cool, and Lo at the front desk was super nice too! Overall great experience.

Love it but moved so too far. i was sort of anoid about tge price. guy comes in for a wash cut style 25 iam lady with short hair similar to a guys im charged 60. why but i did like the place an molly was great

The absolute best place to get your haircut. Fair price for services you get and I am loyal customer

Hannah at Chop Tops does amazing work! The staff are always friendly and take pride in their work.

Usually call the same day to get an appointment so I dont have a preferred or consistent stylist but every person Ive seen has done a spectacular job

I get my hair cut by Molly. Top notch cut, every time. The best Ive had in Kansas City. Never visited a hair spot with so many people that seriously know their stuff. Wife sometimes makes a comment about pricier hair salons but never when I get cut at Chop Tops! Its worth it.

Was looking for a new place to get my haircut since moving up here from Wichita. So glad I chose this place they are amazing and I am happy with my haircut. I will definitely be coming back again.

Great place for a haircut, wax, or whatever else you need. Super friendly staff, very reasonable rates, cool ambiance. Best spa Ive been to in KC that wasnt Aveda or way overpriced.

Chop Tops is the awesome. I reached out to them after an awful experience. The atmosphere is relaxing with great music. Kind of a rockabilly feel.I have always been greated with a smile and offered a drink at arival. Never waited longer than 5 minutes. Kat has taken care of me and I have gone without wearing a hat for weeks, and I love hats. Both hair and beard are top notch. Wont be going anywhere else.

Great experience. Easy to set up an appointment. Great cut. Good atmosphere. I have a stage hair style, and they kept it going strong.

Best customer service I have ever experienced at a Salon. Theyve done everything for me for the last several years including the hair for my wedding party. All the girls that work here are incredible. I encourage everyone I know to use Chop Tops and they are never disappointed!

Its only a few dollars more than a place like sports clips but way better service. Plus you get a complimentary drink while you get your hair cut.

Ive been coming here for a couple of years and used 3 or 4 different stylists in that time. Everyone has been great. Friendly staff, great haircuts and theyll give you a beer!

Excellent shop. Highly recommend Missy. Best haircut and beard trim I’ve ever had.

Super great with a fussy toddler. Very attentive to his comfort level during the entire haircut

New to the area and am looking to find a new place - loved my visit today and my hair cut. I am looking forward to coming back. I love all of the Rat Fink/R. Crumb/Bettie Page art. My stylist Haide is new according to facebook but she was great and Im very happy with the results. Im looking forward to returning.

People are pretty nice, they provide you a drink when you walk in. I am from LA so I am trying to find a good barber shop here. This looks pretty promising to me so far!

Excellent quality haircuts. From the moment I walked in they made me feel comfortable and right at home. And service is beyond satisfactory

After my last haircut/beard trim, you wont catch me at any other salon. Missy gave me the best haircut of my life and the atmosphere was great. Go see Missy!!

I have always had a wonderful experience at the Brookside location. Marissa keeps me looking great! The location is clean, conversation is good and my hair always looks fantastic afterwards. I always recommend Chop Tops to friends looking for a new place for a cut. The price is right too! $20 gets you a cut, shampoo and a neck shave. Believe the reviews, come to Chop Tops!

Without question, this is the best haircut experience Ive ever had. Very friendly staff and great selection of grooming products. They totally ignore the get em in and get em out mentality of larger chains and actually care about the service they are providing to their clients. They even offer you a PBR while you are waiting if you arrive early. Highly recommended!

I usually cut my own hair, but that led me to grabbing the wrong guard and creating a large buzzed landing strip. I came to this place due to personal recommendations. Macy was professional and not only did she fix the strip, she made me look extremely stylish. I might not cut my own hair ever again and plan on being back!

I have been coming here for a few years now and highly recommend this place. Molly has always been my stylist and does an incredible job.

The hair cut was good. I had the girl with blonde and pink hair. I had to wait 30 minutes even though I had an appointment. There was no sort of head massage that occurred during shampoo and conditioning and I was quite disappointed.

Today was my first time visiting Chop Tops. From the minute I walked in they made me feel like a returning customer the environment was awesome. My stylist was Murissa, she delivered one amazing hair cut and took my out of control beard and made it look good. I will be returning and I encourage any man looking for an amazing cut to visit as well.

Remarkable! Missy did an outstanding job with my fade!! She really goes above and beyond to ensure your looking your sharpest when you walkout.

This place was great, very friendly and welcoming staff made it a comfortable place and the cut was wonderful.

Without a doubt the very best haircut I have ever had in my life. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and makes you feel welcome. I will be back.

Ive come consistently for years and the service for mens cuts is fantastic no matter who you see, especially for the value!

The stylist listened carefully to what I wanted. She engaged me in casual conversation. The atmosphere was relaxed, laid back, and trendy. And I LOVE my haircut!!!

Had a great experience at Chop Tops! Great value for haircut and wash.

Great service. The staff is fabulous. Each experience is consistently great

Always a great experience. Talented staff, excellent environment. The best you could ask for in a neighborhood shop.

If you want to get your haircut right, then make sure you come here! Their stylists are very professional and listen to what you need.

I really wanted to make this salón my favorite but today I was very disappointed, I had an appointment at 10am when I showed up they said the hairstyles doesnt come until 11am. You didnt know like it was my mistake. Also said what dont you have some breakfast and comeback? I have things to do. They need to have a better service. And if the front desk make a mistake cant treat costumer like that. Very unprofessional. On the top of that after she saw my angry face she said sorry . It was very fake. Dont let no one to treat you with not respect.

Ill never go anywhere else. The staff is great. The place has a fun vibe.

I’ve been getting my haircut at this place for about 3 years now, even followed them to Brookside when they left the PV location. Today I call to schedule my appointment and was told that I’m only allowed to schedule same-day appointments because I was “rude” to a stylist during my last visit. Absolutely not true. During my last visit, I was 5 min late (I even called to warn them), it was the last cut of the day, as soon as I walk in I get told that I can’t get my hair washed because I was late (I just left the gym mind you). The reasoning was because it’s supposed to be a 30 minute slot, no one behind me remember. Truth is they wanted to go home, don’t blame em. So I laughed and kind of scoffed at the idea of it taking 30+ min. to cut my hair. Haircut proceeds, 15 min cut + 5 min hair wash - service is fine, I pay, I tip, over. Then today I basically get told to F*** off. Hostess was sooo pleased when I told her I would just go somewhere else. Kind of unbelievable. This is a $35-$40 haircut. Thank God I’m off of this money train.

Chop Tops is the BEST! Excellent service, awesome atmosphere, and great haircuts! I always walk away feeling better :)

Great place. Nice atmosphere great haircut. Will be coming back.

Morgan gave me an excellent cut. She spent a lot of time blending and which made a big difference, and the neck straight shave is a great touch!

Ill never go anywhere else. The staff is great, and Molly does the best fades Ive had in my life.

New to the area and picky about my hair. Kat took great care of me and my large beard. See you in a couple weeks!

Great atmosphere, super clean facility, and all star faculty. Maggie does an amazing job, will definitely be going back to her for my next cut.

5 stars great service Lindsay did a great job. Thank you so much.

Great Service. Good Prices. Clean Establishment. Friendly Staff.

After getting my haircut by Missy, I have decided I will never go anywhere else, Go see Missy and I guarantee you will go to her every time! She’s seriously the best!

Outstanding haircut! Really friendly folks in a great venue. Thanks!

Great service, products and hours. Staff is super friendly and are very knowledgeable about the products they carry.

Found a stylist I reallly like and trust...Catie
