I kept coming back here for haircut. Who beat the cheap deal. Travel time cost $20 plus the haircut is a good deal. At least can tour around the area. Visit...

First time customer here! I give it 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 As a Black man, I felt welcomed by the staff. That was important to me. I had a fade done with a design by Marisela with assistance by Maria, Joseph, and Juan. They were patient and kind and professional! The entire establishment is professional. The way the staff all conducted themselves and helped each other and how clean the shop was indeed impressive. They treated each customer with respect and divinity. My haircut was only $11 with the design, excluding tip. Paid parking was very easy directly across the street in the open lot. I highly recommend! The customers were diverse and I liked seeing the different races in same place getting a cut. The last cut is at 2:00pm as they close shop at 3:30pm daily. They made a customer for life! Thank you APB!

Paul greets you at the door and immediately makes you feel welcome, which sets a positive tone from the moment you arrive. His friendliness reflects the professional, respectful culture of the school. I was Ashley’s very first haircut, and the experience was excellent. She worked closely with her mentor throughout the service, and together they did an amazing job on my low tapered fade and trim. They also took the time to properly shape and trim my goatee, paying close attention to balance and detail. Nothing felt rushed, and the instruction and oversight were clearly hands-on and intentional. The entire service cost only $8, and I left a $2 tip, which fit my budget perfectly without sacrificing quality. For the level of care and professionalism provided, the value is outstanding. Academy Of Professional Barbers delivers real results, and I will absolutely be back in two weeks for another cut and a shave. #SilverSpringMD #SilverSpringBarber #SilverSpringBarbershop #MarylandBarbers #DMVBarber #LowTaperFade #CleanFade #BeardTrim #GoateeTrim #StudentBarber #FutureBarbers #AffordableHaircut #BudgetFriendly #BarberTraining #BarberLife #MensGrooming #FreshCut #SupportLocal #SilverSpringSmallBusiness

Editor's Description
Located just North of Washington, D.C., the Academy of Professional Barber-Stylists has offered a leading and unique barbering program since 1963. On Google, Nelson V. says, "I've been coming here for several decades and the students do a great job."
Though it's a barber program, they teach advanced methods and techniques with a particular focus on hairstyling for both women and men.
The 1,200-hour curriculum takes full-time students 32 weeks to complete. You can also attend part-time, but the state requires attendance for at least 20 hours per week.
An admission interview is required, and classes typically take place from Tuesday through Saturday each week. The program functions continuously, and students normally begin courses on the first or third Tuesday of every month.
After graduation, the Academy helps students find jobs through their extensive list of industry contacts, with a 61% job placement rate.
