I walked in without an appointment on a Saturday close to closing. It was jamming. I expected dirty looks and to be turned away. Nope!

Central Barber Shop is located at 88 Center Street next to the bank, across from the walls of the…read morecemetery and less than 2 blocks from Colony Road. You have there free parking in front and in the back of the salon which is so convenient when it is snowing or raining. I'm giving you all this data because there are 3 barber shops in this 2-block area and I want you to get to the Best Barber Shop in Wallingford whether you are awake or walking in your sleep. You will have committed a grave error if you enter the wrong salon. There, as in Z's butcher shop in Hartford, where he is afraid to get his own hair cut by his fellow employees, you will not get your hair cut, rather you shall be fleeced like a helpless ewe and regret it for a whole month until your hair grows back and you finally go to Central Barbershop for damage control. Do you know what you really get at Central? You get an European stylish haircut tailored to your preferences. My barber there, who is the owner, immigrated from central Europe. He will start cutting your hair until you tell him, in simple terms, how you wanted cut. I used the same answer I used when I was stationed in Thailand and in Japan: "After I leave your barbershop, i want people to think that my haircut was done two weeks ago!" My barber in Wallingford, CT., responded, "Gotcha!..." Now, do you want to accept my 5-star recommendation along with all the other 5-stars from so many satisfied customers who feel as I do and GO to Central Barbershop, or take Mr. Z.'s envious, trumpian opinion of one barber who doesn't trust his co-workers to give him an acceptable cut, and based on that, you go somewhere else to be fleeced? Remember what Forester Gump used to say, "STUPID as STUPID does! Silverio (SAM) B. {Yelp said that "this review is looking pretty epic! Nice! }

My original review from a few months ago isn't showing up, so let me try again…read more Got a great cut from Cat at Cornerstone Barbershop the other day. No appointment, I just happened to be in the area. Dino and Cat were very welcoming when I walked in, they told me to help myself to a beverage up front. They also have one of those mini NES systems hooked up, so that was a nice time killer while the family in front of me finished up. Very pleased with the haircut and I felt a little pampered by the attention to detail, aftershave, and general welcoming atmosphere. And it was only $15, definitely can't beat that! I live in Hamden but I will probably make the trip for this place because it was so good. Definitely skip the chain haircutter and give this place a shot if you're in the area.

He had a question and the woman who answered the phone said she would call him back after she talked to the barber and never called him back. When my boyfriend called to confirm they said they already booked someone else! When he FINALLY spoke to the original woman on the phone she replied with, "I'm sorry, what are you not getting?" HORRIBLE customer service, and would NEVER go back. Too expensive and the job done the first time wasn't even worth the money. Thought he'd give it a second chance, but not this time!!!

Joe has moved his shop next door. So this is the first review of his new shop. Same hair cutters…read morejust different address. Joe's barber shop is an old school barber shop. Red, white, and blue barber pole out front and all. Speaking of old school Joe is the man. Joe and his son are the 2 main haircutters right now. Room to grow in the new shop with a couple extra chairs. The new shop is very nice. Wide open space, very clean, black n white tile floors, multiple TV's and plenty of magazines to keep you occupied while waiting. My hair cuts are ALWAYS on the money. Joe takes his time and does a tight cut. Joe is a master at Clippers, Scissors. and Razors. Using all 3 for my haircuts. Others that cut hair have commented on my haircuts and only positive feedback has come from them. He also has me laughing my ass off most times. Joe doesn't take reservations so I might have to give him a neg review just so I don't make a longer wait for myself. Here's a tip for you to get on Joe's good side. After reading "Very homophobic barber" on another review I think Joe would like to show his support for all. Bring a Rainbow Flag or a Gay Support wrist band or maybe a black pride band. I'm sure he'll display them to show his support for all. In all seriousness, You won't get a better haircut anywhere.
