Had a great experience at Iron Lung, with Jack! He is very friendly and I appreciate that he listened to exactly what I was looking for! Jack paid close attention to detail and provided me with a fantastic cut for my anniversary this evening! Thanks again! I highly recommend Jack for your next cut

Hayley’s skill and friendly approach make each visit a delight. As a repeat client, I can confidently say she consistently delivers a top-notch haircut experience!

Hayley is my favourite barber I've ever had, and in truth the only one I've ever really committed to regularly. She pretty much nailed my hair first time and dials it in even more each time I see her. She's such a lovely person and I really sincerely look forward to my appointments with her (which is sooooo refreshing vs my experience with other barbers!).

All the stars for Hayley and Iron Lung!

Dropped in for the first time, and got a haircut from Josh. Had a great experience. Definitely felt like he cared about what I was looking for, and I walked out of there with exactly that. Easy conversation and chill atmosphere. Everyone in there seemed super friendly. For sure going back. I recommend checking this place out.

Great establishment. I've been going to Jodel for several years and he is consistently on point with his execution and speed.

Really nice staff, professional, good attention to detail, and clean. The Beard cut was uneven-something that they need to focus on improving

This place is great. I absolutely hate the experience of getting my hair cut, between pressure to say exactly the right thing or end up with a bad cut, and the uncomfortable forced small talk. It’s always a struggle for me.

Hung was awesome at making my time feel valued, and he really got what I wanted even though I couldn’t explain it well.

The shop is modern and stylish, it didn’t feel like it was trying to come off false or made up. Genuine and quality designed.

The team overall seemed like skilled and positive individuals, I couldn’t recommend them enough.

There’s a good reason why this place has high ratings. Good conversation, talented barbers, bright atmosphere. Love coming here!

Iron Lung is a dope barber shop! The #1 reason I come in? Hayley! Hayley is the best barber around, always giving me the best haircuts. I consistently receive compliments every time after my haircuts, and leave Hayley's chair feeling so damn good. Hayley is patient, attentive, and just a super rad human doing awesome haircuts!

Went for a haircut, the place is quite neat! The hairstylists are quite good with their craft. I didn't have much of a direction and my hairstylist guided me to a good haircut. She was not much of a conversationalist, I almost dozed off mid haircut, she is a great stylist nonethless.

I recommend this place, they know what they're doing and it's a very positive atmosphere overall.
28 September 2022 9:17
Just booked for a haircut day before. Hailey never disappoints, loving the new look. I highly recommend this place. Ask for Hailey she’s fantastic!
09 September 2022 20:09
Jodel is the man!
I went there for the first time without knowing what to expect. Jodel asked me what I wanted then executed the haircut so much better than I imagined.
Love it! Thanks so much!
25 July 2022 15:22
Tanner is a great barber. I’ve gone to him for a few months now and couldn’t be happier with the hair cuts I’ve got from him! The store is awesome love the design and attention detail! If you need a better barber iron lung is the spot ️
30 June 2022 13:18
This place deserves all the praise it gets, Jodel is a master at his craft and extremely receptive, and asks all the right questions to help you get the perfect cut even if you are like myself and don't know exactly what you want. The actual place itself is also great, very clean.

Kinda apprehensive with cutting my hair at first but the man jodel cut my hair beyond my expectations
12 April 2022 11:20
Took a while to find a good place to get my haircut in Vancouver. Iron Lung Barbershop is by far the best place. Tanner always delivers
23 March 2022 4:55
I'm usually terrible at describing what I'm looking for in a haircut. I had my appointment today with Jodel and when I explained what I was after they knew exactly what was up.

Delivered an on point hair cut and made time to shape up my beard too! Chat was great and shop is vibin'! Thanks again!
24 January 2022 20:12
Josh is the best barber in the city. Great guy and great barber. He takes time and gives attention to detail. Highly recommend
04 January 2022 10:37
Everyone was super friendly and knowledgable. Tanner was amazing! I think I just found my new barber!
26 December 2021 5:30
Always kinda scary visiting a new barber but I've gone to Karen for my last 2 cuts and each time she's done an incredible job. Has always been gentle and I can see how focused she is on my hair. She asks questions like how I part my hair, how I usually style it, etc to give me a cut that looks good and is something I can maintain. Highly highly recommend the shop:) Place is also very tidy and clean (and sometimes there's 2 dogs that politely ask for pets!)
24 December 2021 7:53
Got a fade cut. The barber on me didn't seem to be the one with a lot of experience. Ended up with not so satisfying result and yet charged me $45 before taxes and tips for 40min work.
30 September 2021 13:22
Tanner is the man! Amazing cut, amazing service, an amazing experience overall. Would 100% recommend.
05 September 2021 20:11
Best haircuts ever. Since I discovered this place, I haven't been to any other barber. I come all the way from Surrey to get my hair cut. That's how much better Iron Lung is than any barber I've been to in Surrey.
17 August 2021 3:21
10/10 cuts everytime I go. Tanner's consistency and precision is unmatched. Best barber in Vancouver!
15 August 2021 7:10
I highly recommend you to book with Josh because my experience with him was more than satisfactory, he did understand right away what I wanted, he also delivered a nice job while we kept a friendly environment with a nice talk. A great asset that I found was that I did not have to wait for my cut, I showed up on time and he was already available for me.

Finally, Josh is an enthusiastic person who loves what he does and that lead him to move to UK to take a professional hairstyle course there.
06 August 2021 9:26
Just moved to the city and needed a fresh cut, chilled place, very professional. Only a selected few can cut my asian hair. Had Jodel as my stylist. Young kid with a great attitude. Attention to detail was on point. Impressed with the outcome and will surely comeback.
30 July 2021 4:32
I spent 7 years following the same barber around Vancouver and when he finally quit, I was anxious to mix things up. A friend of mine dropped the Iron Lung name as a recommendation and I decided to bite the bullet and book a slot with Tanner.

This was 8 months ago now and I haven't looked back since. Great dude with a relaxed demeanour, who possesses a genuine level of care. The conversation is great and the haircut is top shelf.

Iron Lung is a rad little shop. It's clean and fresh, their booking system is easy to navigate and I've always walked away from their shop, feeling great. It's not a pretentious barber shop - like so many others in this city are.

I won't go anywhere else in this city for a haircut and I couldn't recommend this place more.
26 June 2021 0:32
Amazing cut by Ciara! It was a bit of a walk from central Mount Pleasant, but worth it. I recommend it for great value.
27 May 2021 22:12
Found a barber I want to sick with, ask for Jodel he'll take care of you. Awesome service and the best cut I've had in a while.
26 May 2021 19:27
If you are a busy professional like me who needs to look good all the time for meetings and Zoom calls, this place will give you value for every dollar spent! I rely on them and highly recommend them. Tanner is always consistent and accurate with his cuts. I am amazed at his knowledge about the dynamics of hair! Keep up the great work guys!
16 May 2021 17:30
Jodel is fantastic! He has made skills, he is kind and rather funny too. The price is reasonable and everyone is friendly. I'll be back!
05 May 2021 23:18
Love the atmosphere and the professional they are.
Got the faded hair cut with Tanner. He is super talented, professional and attention to detail. I’m very impressed with my clean faded haircut.will be back for my next hair cut for sure
19 January 2021 23:55
What a great space, fresh and open, great vibes. Go see Tanner for an outstanding cut and some great banter.
11 January 2021 18:22
Tanner was fantastic! Professional barber, great conversation and one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had. He listened to what I was looking for and gave tips along the way. Will be returning. Also the aesthetics of the shop are on point! Comfortable and clean. Awesome!
20 November 2020 17:51
Great atmosphere and great barbers. I starting coming here as Ben moved to this shop, he is great. I can always count on him getting the hair back on point and a fun conversation. Highly recommend! A+
18 November 2020 19:01
Josh has been my only barber since I moved to Vancouver four years ago, and he's certainly the best barber I've had. The shop itself is great, it has a solid atmosphere. Everyone there is amazing too, I would trust anyone there with my hair and I don't say that lightly. You get what you pay for, and there's always good conversation there too. Can't recommend the place enough
12 November 2020 23:34
Great cut! Josh takes time to understand what you need and communicates well. The space itself is relaxing, even in these COVID-19 times. That was my first cut, I will definitely be going back.
07 November 2020 18:39
Really pleased with the 5 star service from Ben. Ideally you want to tell your barber what you want, and have them provide some expert advice on what will work best for you. And that's what I got! I appreciate the attention to detail, and making it feel like my time and money were well spent. Good business here and professional haircut. Nice guys. Highly recommend!
05 November 2020 22:29
In my opinion it's the best barbershop in the city. Everything is clean and the appointments are always on time. My barber is Ben and he is amazing, always able to deliver the style I ask for. Great service and the conversation are always fun. I would recommend Ben to anyone who is looking for a great haircut.
05 July 2020 23:54
Great shop, everyone's very nice. Had a haircut from Ben and it was absolutely stellar. Could not ask for better.
08 March 2020 13:07
Tanner has be wielding the sheers to my hair for the last year and I only have praise. He makes my time in the chair a quality experience. Heading to the barbershop is no longer a begrudging errand but actually something I look forward to. His cuts are clean and conversation is easy, hit him up at Iron Lung.
22 November 2019 3:42
Best barbershop in town, hands down. From the cuts to the conversation, everything is phenomenal. All of the barbers at the shop are super knowledgeable, incredibly skilled and all around awesome people. The vibe in the shop itself is also relaxed but still professional.

After years of trying different shops and barbers around the city, I met Josh and have been seeing him ever since. He goes above and beyond and always takes the time to make sure the cut is perfect. I am currently living in Ontario but Josh will always be my barber - he's my first stop off the plane, every time!
15 November 2019 14:36
I discovered Iron Lung while walking in the neighbourhood and have been going to see Josh ever since. It's a great shop, and I the haircuts are the best that I have ever had!
09 November 2019 12:27
Josh, and his team at Iron Lung, are a group of professionals, who take their work very seriously, in a fun and comfortable environment. I've always been self conscious of my haircuts, but after I met Josh a couple years ago, he's been the only barber I have gone too since. He gained my trust and friendship that very first cut, and I'm sure you will feel the same.
18 October 2019 12:16
Veronica is professional and always delivers. I show her a photo and she replicates with precision. The highest of recommendations!
04 October 2019 6:30
Veronica is awesome! Listens to what you want, and executes it in a way that she know's will suit you best!

Always fun to catch up with her.

Get yo hairs snipped here.

Been going to Josh for a couple years now.

Great barber, runs a great business. Highly recommended.
30 September 2019 3:56
I followed Olivia from Barber and co to her new working place.

She's been my Barber for a few years now.

New place is really cool.

When I decided to stop neglecting my look, I went to see Olivia.
She had the balls to take risks and make you look different when you ask her.
Gave me a new identity:)
17 September 2019 16:42
Olivia is the most talented, professional, and fun barber I've ever worked with. I time my visits to Vancouver at the same time I need to get freshened up, just so I can see her. Iron Lung is a great atmosphere - clean and awesome vibes. Thank you Olivia and gang.
06 September 2019 7:32
This is my go to spot for a great cut in Vancouver! Thanks Veronica for always making me look sharp!
04 September 2019 4:59
A huge thanks to Josh and the IL Team. A great experience from start to finish. Good conversation, good playlist, easy parking and a A+ haircut. Will definitely be back.
03 September 2019 2:38
Josh always give a great cut. You also get a great visit in. Such a nice, interesting guy. Beautiful new shop. Full of amazing plants.
25 July 2019 14:54
Olivia is awesome. She has been my go to barber for over a year. Hard parts, great creativity, works with you to develop your own unique look. Iron Lung Barbers has a great relaxed vibe and it's much easier to park here than her old spot.
19 July 2019 1:03
I had a fantastic haircut with Josh and would recommend anyone interested in a fresh cut to visit Iron Lung.
Good chat, good service, good location. Feels great to be supporting a local business and I wish them every success.
17 June 2019 9:45
Josh is hands down the best barber I’ve ever had and is just an all around great dude. This shop has an awesome vibe, an amazing team and I believe they are well on their way to easily being the number one shop in Vancouver.
