Say About Gentleman John’s Classic Legacy?

Aleksandar Baron

A cut above. I have been truly impressed by Jared’s skills. His vision of a classic barber shop is reality in a truly unique establishment that obviously customers of Lynchburg enjoy based on all the positive reviews. Keep up the great work Jared!

Cory Collea

Simply the best barbers in Lynchburg! They take their time, they are very detailed and professional. It is always a great atmosphere and a positive environment. I highly recommend. I always come out feeling refreshed, relaxed, and rejuvenated! Paige is my barber and is fantastic! But, I know people who have had their hair cut by the rest of the staff and they have the same experience and feedback. Don't expect to pay great clips prices but it is well worth the money.

I don’t typically write reviews but this is worth it. Great location, this barbershop is clean, uses reservations so you are never waiting, timely, professional and affordable. I have yet to find a place that matches the price, amount of time, care, passion, and intentionality put in to their service let alone the outstanding quality. Easily my favorite barbershop!
