Miller LoganNovember 30, 2016I eventually found perfect barber at New York City for my hair. Cuts are always consistent, you don’t need to describe much what you wish, he just nails the idea and leave you with the look you wanted
I've been going to this place for over 8 years... They do great, non rushed work. You will not find a better barber or price in the area. Highly recommended.
Billy Boy GrenisJanuary 24, 2019Classic barbershop, with neck shave, hot towel, and liquor shots. $3 cheaper with cash. Pop/club music on in the background. Solid cuts.
Best haircut in Manhattan. Rafael or the cute little Surrayo are tied for the best so make an appt in advance. They don't just cut your hair... They make sweet love to your entire head. Amazing.- David DavisNovember 30, 2016I left of this barbershop feeling nice AF! I don’t know, guys, maybe you have magic in your hands - haircuts are consistently blameless! I get into the chair with confidence that I’ll get style I like
- Liam MartinNovember 30, 2016I love this barbershop at New York City for ability walk in, jump in the chair and get the best service. Thank you, guys, for the work you do, my hair has never looked better.
John CockrellNovember 17, 2012Best haircut I've had in NYC so far. And they do a straight razor shave. Just be sure to book online, since walk-ins are getting a bit harder to do.- Mason JonesNovember 30, 2016It’s really hard to find a barber to whom you want to get back, I’m not consistent and rarely come back to the same barbershop twice in a row. No longer. I’ve meet the barber I want to go back.
Looks kind of sketch, but this was the best haircut I've had in New York for sure. Huge bang for the buck too.
Great haircut. Can anyone confirm a chest shave / trim has happened here? It's listed for $20.
Kyle PetrovichFebruary 17, 2014Best deal for a haircut, though prices keep rising I still feel like I'm getting more than my money's worth.
Ben ReedSeptember 15, 2012Best haircut in NYC. Been there since day 1. Rafael is a perfectionist and hires same. Cuts now 16...I'd pay 50 for em.
Freshest cuts in the city (and world?) Walk in looking like a normal person and walk out looking like an A-list celebrity.- Reed SmithNovember 30, 2016I attended many barbershops and almost every time my fade looked horrible. Once I enter into this barbershop and I was finally pleased! Barber was competent to master the mess I had from previous one
Charley MaOctober 18, 2012Best haircut I've ever had, and for only 16 bucks! Rafael is awesome, just make an appointment online!- Take it from the mayor. THE BEST haircut in NYC! Great staff, great spot, great results.
Cara MocciaFebruary 19, 2012Rafael is incredibly professional and takes his time explaining everything. Haircut is $16. Great Deal.
If you're in a hurry, make an appointment. Place is always busy because they're good.
