Easy access. Had appt with Susan. She listened to what i wanted, engaged in conversation and made sure I was happy before I left. Scheduled another appt. Salon clean and did not smell like bleach, as sometimes occurs in salons. Pricing reasonable for cut/ blow dry

Kent cuts my kids hair exactly as they want it.

Best barber in all of Albany. Every time I get a hair cut here I get a tight fade and it feels amazing. Very refreshing experience with very reasonable prices. I have Asian hair so it can be tough to find someone who can handle it but Kent does everybody.

Excellent style, super nice, and all around great experience.

I found Kent over 10yrs ago and have been a client of his ever since. Always consistent and done to perfection. Very friendly and a great guy! Very good with kids as well, my boys love to chat it up with Kent.

I had to cancel an appointment last week due to a death of a family member and I let the barber know of the cancelation ahead of time through text. Then I just tried to book an appointment for tomorrow (Sunday) but I accidently chose the wrong time and called him two days in advance and wanted to change the time slot to tonight. However, while I do know it was my fault that I cancelled the first time and tried to reschedule the second, that's no excuse for him to be extremely rude and aggressive over the phone. I could have easily done a no show since I'm not even from Albany but I went out of my way to apologize to him on the phone and reschedule, but he responded with animosity. I no longer have any interest of being a customer and went to Dukes Barber Shop of Albany instead and they were very polite. TLDR: Please be careful when you cancel or reschedule an appointment, you don't want an angry barber cutting your hair.

I have been going to Kent for 10plus years and always pleased with my haircut. He’s always consistent and a pleasure to talk with. He’s extremely flexible if I need to reschedule an appointment and always makes time on my schedule to get me in the chair. I highly recommend Kent Hair Studio.

I have been going to Kent for over 20 years. He has been nothing but the most professional, honest and friendliest hairstylist. I recently brought our teen girls to see Kent as they are very anxious with anyone touching their hair. They absolutely loved it and I cannot thank Kent enough for going above and beyond as he always has with myself.

I have been using Kent as my stylist for nearly 15 years. He is professional, talented, and meticulous. I have never been dissatisfied with my cut and style. His salon is clean, beautiful and centrally located. Booking appointments is simple and convenient. I also love using cashless payment. I have referred several friends to Kent, and they also have been very satisfied. Book your appointment today!

I was recently there and I have to say the hair salon is nice and the barber Kent was nice and a cool person but to be honest, after seeing my hair done for men’s cut, I was actually disappointed. I showed Kent a picture of what hairstyle I wanted and it turned out completely different. The fade on my hair was uneven and the back of my head looks like it wasn’t really put into work.

I’ve been going to Kent for the last 9 years, and I have to say I am so thankful for connecting with him. Kent is very thorough in his work to always ensure the best possible haircut for his client. Kent listens very well to any and all questions regarding my hair. His knowledge is above and beyond. And most importantly, Kent is funny and very easy to talk to and makes great conversation throughout the process. I cannot recommend Kent enough ! I suggest scheduling a week ahead because he’s usually booked ! You won’t regret it

Kent has been my long time barber for the last 20 years. He not only cuts my hair, but my children as well. He takes pride on work, his professionalism is 2nd to none. I can always count on him to provide a quality haircut. He cares about each and every one of his clients. I appreciate the long time friendship and relationship. If you are in need of a quality barber, visit Kent.

Kent is a great guy. Not only does he do a great job cutting my hair, which is not easy. Kent also shares his wisdom with me. It is always a great experience here. I first went in like 2019

Kent is an artist! He knows exactly what you want, keeps the studio clean and professional, we wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommend 👍👍

One of the best hairdressers is Sue and Amber for women and Kent does the men. Highly recommended for quality haircut and style and price is pretty decent.

So I called with an hour and 10 until they closed because my work ran late asking "if I get there in 5 mins if I can get a cut" and before I could even finish the word "there" he was interrupting me with "No no no no no" never got a cut there and never will. I understand being booked but i can see he is rude. Spend your money else where there are way less rude and inconsiderate people to cut your hair.

I wanted a first-time perm, and coming from NYC where they have many locations that offer that service, I was hesitant to go with a salon in Albany. I found KENTS HAIR STUDIO, and after a phone call with Kent, I decided to go. Kent was amazing. We had great conversations, he was friendly, you can tell he loves what he does, and very knowledgeable in hair. He exceeded my expectations, and gave me a life changing first-time experience with a perm. Anybody should come to Kent for any hair consulting, styling, cuts, and other services.

Kent is the #1 hair stylist in the Capitol District. There are no others with this man's talent and dedication to his craft. He'll treat you right and give you the look you want everytime you visit.

I booked my appointment online and received a follow-up text to confirm it the day before. The establishment itself is very clean and well kept, the owner very personable and offered suggestions and advice for creating and maintaining my new style. 10/10 would go again.

Kent always does a fantastic job. Highly recommend!

Kent was very welcoming and extremely polite. He walked me through what he was doing and even told me that I did not need to book two appointments to get my hair colored and cut.
