The Good Stuff
Beard grooming
Beard trims are a strong part of the shop’s appeal, with reviews mentioning both regular trims and razor-blade finishes.
Relaxed setting
The shop is repeatedly described as clean, well-maintained, quiet and relaxed rather than rushed.
Child friendly
One walk-in reviewer said a patient barber handled a nervous two-year-old and delivered a fantastic cut.
Extra touches
Coffee is mentioned as a welcome extra, and one long-term customer also praised the resident nail service.
Fair options
Some customers find the pricing reasonable, and one review mentions yearly haircut subscriptions.
Tips for a Better Visit
Book ahead. Phone booking is recommended over walking in, especially if you want a particular barber or a predictable time.
Confirm instructions. Explain the cut clearly and check that the barber understands, as one customer received a much shorter style than requested.
Ask pricing. If bringing a child over eight, confirm the rate first: one review says the shop treats them as an adult.
Allow flexibility. Appointment and walk-in handling has been inconsistent, so leave extra time and confirm the booking on arrival.
Check beard fit. If you need a substantial beard correction, discuss the shape and the barber’s experience beforehand.
Try weekdays. A review reported minimal waiting during the week after work, making that a potentially smoother time to visit.

The Bottom Line
The Corner Barber is a Damac Hills shop for men’s haircuts, beard trims and wet shaves, with reviews also mentioning threading and a coffee served during the visit. The strongest feedback centres on careful, precise work: one customer said the barber listened exactly to the requested cut, while another praised a fade cut and beard trim in a superb atmosphere. The setting comes across as clean, tidy and quietly comfortable.
It also works for families: a reviewer described a patient haircut for a two-year-old, and other customers say their children enjoy coming in. A resident nail service is another useful extra if you want more than a haircut. Booking by phone is the safer move than relying on a walk-in.
Reviews describe both smooth visits and frustrating scheduling, including a case where someone who arrived later was served first. Weekday visits after work were reported to have minimal waiting, but it is still worth allowing some flexibility. Quality appears barber-dependent.
Long-term customers praise particular barbers, while others report cuts that ignored instructions, difficult beard corrections and poor results on Afro/African hair. Prices also divide opinion: some call them fair, but one customer reported 155dh for a razor blade and beard trim, while another found children’s pricing expensive.
