Best barber experience in Brooklyn!
Veronica M.

The best barber experience in BROOKLYN! The owner & staff are SUPER friendly, you get a shot of tequila, vodka, or the smoothest whisky with your experience. All this and not to mention a truly great haircut, shave, hot towel and assortment of products to make you feel like a BROOKLYN MILLION BUCKS. A great big thanks to the owner Robert. I would recommend this place time & time again.

What kid wont be happy sitting in a police car watching Toy Story with a lollipop. Parents you have been saved!

I work in the nabe and been coming for over 2 years. They use scissors, hot towel and always come out looking great, but big news- NOW they have their own shop for kids haircuts, toddler haircuts whatever the verbiage it but is a must see to believe. They went through painstaking details with police and cab cars to sit in, Toys and movies. This is now a destination for all kids, babies, toddlers to visit and makes sense with this nabe. BTW affordable considering they are in DUMBO. (Oh and don't forget about the lollipop to stay calm at all times)

Best place for boys" or mens' haircuts in the neighborhood! Also Tina and Anastasia are great with blowing out hair. Love this place!

Best place in dumbo for boys' or mens" haircuts and Tina and Anastasia are great at blow drying women's hair. Love this place - relaxing and great service.

The cool vintage vibe draws hipsters and gentleman alike. There are plush tufted leatherette chairs for guests who are waiting and beautifully studded leather antique barber chairs. Clearly some thought was put into the details: a print of Brooklyn sprawled across the walls, large mirrors and bright lighting to open up the space, and an old globe opens to reveal whiskey and other spirits. Haircuts don't come cheap though. A regular cut will cost you $20 and the barbers although they are not rude, I wouldn't call them friendly either. Nevertheless, my boyfriend walks out with a decent cut every time and it's really the only option close by if you live in Dumbo.

I usually come here with my boyfriend. We live on the upper east side and he makes the trip to brooklyn for a haircut. They do a great job, are well priced, and always have shots of free booze for customers. Service is fast and the place is clean. They also have full man shaving facial treatments which I hear are amazing!

I made an appointment super last minute, and I was grateful that they were able to get me in. I sat…read morein the chair with a guy named William and he asked me what I wanted a couple of times I had to repeat myself, which was not the issue at all, but each time it felt like he was going more and more agitated when I was just trying to be clear because of course I'm not a barber so I don't know terms like "mid low or high fade". I felt him getting increasingly agitated so I just got out of the chair and said thank you and he muttered something along the lines of "youre contradicting yourself and acting like I don't know what I'm doing". It's not that I didn't think he knew what he was doing. I just wanted to make sure I was clear before he started. Seemed very much like he had v little patience but as someone who had never been there before , I didn't go in wanting smoke..I just wanted a haircut. The woman who checked me in was nice though.

The service and quality of the work is fine, but their pricing is nonexistent!…read more I moved into the neighborhood last February and in April went and got a decent haircut that cost $58.78. I thought it was a bit high, but I had been out of NYC for 7 years and accepted it, and that included a tip. I next went in July, got pretty much the same (simple) haircut and that cost $41.57, again with a tip. Much more reasonable I THOUGHT. I went in October and was charged $66.69 without a tip! WTF? I didn't go there to get SCALPED! Guess you won't miss 3 visits a year.

It was mad easy to make the appointment- you can pre pay or pay after service which I appreciate…read more My barber was Nick. I walked in 5 minutes early "I have 3:30 appointme-" "Will? " "yes." " you're with Nick, he'll be done in 5 minutes please have a seat." 5 minutes passed like 20. I was chopping off my brown locks of which so many previous barbers and Salonistas have objectified "your grandfather blessed you huh," complimenting me with confounding wide eyes. I needed like Jesus to resurrect. Hairs a good place to start I had thought, probably influenced subconsciously by those characters on TV or films who chop off their all comfortable mane as to do shock therapy in the mirror or maybe I just wanted attention. Then I was in the chair at 3:30. I sheepishly showed him a picture of the cut that would be my dice toss. "High and tight" I was going all in like they do in Poker or those other Casino games ( which I actually have never played and don't intend to because gambling seems insidious and addiction runs in the family. ) His eyes jolted, catching him stunned then helplessly letting out a little smile like "this little white boy is really going to go for it, fuck it might look good on him" Then back to business, absolutely making positive with me that I wanted exactly the cut this 8 Mile looking kid with the wife beater in the picture had. I nodded becoming a bobble head giving an affirmative green light, consenting to be whacked and mowed. "Top too" "What?" "Top shaven too" "Oh yes. Exactly like the picture!." Still bobble heading before I ran out of that little barber shop like the back door of your neighborhood dive when you see the catfish your lazy tech fueled dating attempts brought in, as he, like a gourmet chef squinting at a fascistic and novel food swap request, made absolutely explicit the terms of my request. Business is business. Then he gently wrapped paper around my neck and then draped the classic robe, needlessly protecting a no effort Sunday dress , as Nick got right to work without those phony pleasantries and small talk of which I've never felt spurred to engage in but ,polite as I am, nonetheless entertain because, like a work of art or a meal, all that goes in to the work will show, and if a barber should feel ignored or made invisible, then this feeling would reflect in my hair. Thank god then the next half hour was silent as he sculpted with blade and razor, as if Sweeney Todd was on Lexapro, his only concern was on applying his tried craft to the customer patronizing his workplace, occasionally stepping back like a sculptor to take in the progress of his recent markings or very gently turning my stoic cheek left or right as needed to access the angle of attack. This was a man whose put in his 10,000 hours on the job because for him this high and tight fade was executed with a swift , calm but unflinching focus, like a routine ground ball to first base, take your eye off the ball and you may make an amateurs error, Nick doesn't take his eye off the ball and it seemed like the other barbers in there worked with just as much commitment and talent, providing excellent and tailored service to whoever should be their trustees . "Okay.. good?" Nick asked me after cleaning with a brush the loose little hairs around my scalp And then I just couldn't believe the mirror. I was Dorian Gray realizing the picture was of him. And I felt something unusual.. a latent puberty perhaps? For in that moment all the depictions of brutal masculinity we get assaulted with in the media suddenly made sense, not in the mind, but lower....in the soul I think. I left Elegant all the 30$ poorer (save for an undisclosed generous cash tip) , with a limitless swagger, feeling the all too late eastern winters 11'O Clock wind bitterly brush through my newly unclad scalp, gently teasing of what's to be a marvelous spring bloom. No, AI did not write this. No, I am no poet or author. I am a young man who's now just- a man. The simple ecstasy of my day. Gambling on a new barber while simultaneously impulsively intending on a suicide bomb of the hair-do, with merely a prayer that it may change things for the better. Oh and alas then Miracles as the master blesses you, the giver of a swag until now had been in a virgins shrouds. 10/10. Would recommend to all grooming mortals.

It's disappointing for me to write a negative review, as I've been a loyal client of Benny's…read moreBarbershop and Salon since this barbershop first opened on Classon Avenue many years ago. Unfortunately, the past three visits have left me frustrated. I usually book with Yuriy, who is an excellent barber and has always given me great haircuts. The issue is that Yuriy has not shown up for my last three scheduled appointments made through their online booking system. That system allows you to choose a specific barber and time, but if the barber doesn't actually check or honor those appointments, it defeats the purpose. The first two times this happened, I got a haircut from the other 2 barbers in the shop; one the first time, the other the second time. The results were ok--not bad, but not at the same level as Yuriy's work. The third time, Yuriy again didn't show up, and one of the other 2 barbers called him. Yuriy was apologetic, and asked me to come back the following day at a specific time, which I did, but once again he didn't show, and after waiting around for 15 minutes, I left. I don't mind trying different barbers, but once I found a barber I like I prefer to stick to him. if I book a specific person and they repeatedly fail to honor appointments, it feels unprofessional and unreliable. At that point, there's no reason for me to keep booking here when I could just walk into another shop. It's unfortunate, because Yuriy is truly very good. But unless the booking system and reliability improve, I can't recommend this barbershop if you want a specific barber to cut your hair.

I came in for a haircut but left with a amazing experience. They really take care of you.read more

I came to this shop last week and politely inquired about a haircut and beard shape up. The barber stated "due to COVID-19 protocols we are not allowed to shape beards up." I am shocked as I walk past the same shop today 1.30.2020 and the same barber is literally in the window shaping up someone's beard! Having a barbershop in a historically Black neighborhood means you must have the capacity to cater to a diverse set of hairstyles and people! I will find more ways to out this shop EVERY SINGLE DAY!

First time here, I'm reading my past haircut reviews saying "X" is the best place ever…read more Man... The haircut I received yesterday was the best damn haircut I received in NYC in a loooong time. I'll explain. I walk into a small shop. I tell them I have an appointment (That is a must) and I'm shown to a chair. The woman cutting my hair introduces herself and she says her name is like the perfume. So now I'm trying to think of her name, Shalimar? Chanel? White Diamonds? We start talking and she's telling me her career, how she worked at bumble & bumble and other high end boutiques. She cut my hair and then shows me to the sink?? Yes, included in this price is a shampoo? Awesome.. Then its back to the chair, she's snipping, cutting and styling. She's telling me I have good hair. I say thank you and this is the reason why I'm at your shop today. A typical mens cut in Long Island is $18 bucks. They plop you in the chair, buzz you fast and say next! Now I look like damn Vinnie Barbarino. NO! My girl Dior (?) gave me the best damn haircut I had all year. I'll be back in a few weeks before my vacation.
