This place is great. The guys are really friendly. They put a lot of work and effort into what they do and you can tell. For what they putting in what you get out of it the prices are very reasonable and quite good. I got a very detailed cut and shave for 30$ when usually something like that for that for less quality cost me 20$. If you go you'll be happy. read more

I decided to check out the Barber's Den and couldn't be happier. I didn't know my hair could actually look good until Sean showed me the light. read more

Garin is my go-to man at Barber's Den. He always pays close attention to what I want, makes sure he delivers it, and makes useful suggestions for hair styling and care. He even explains what techniques he's using and why. I've been to Garin about four times, and also seen Pete a few times who is great, too. The vibe is laid back, but professional. I can't understand any of the negative reviews I've seen here--perhaps they got a random bad job or didn't explain what they wanted very well. Be clear about what you want and I'm sure these guys can deliver. Also, I know that if you don't like the job, they'll do anything they can to fix it. I think $35 is a totally fair price for barbers with the level of training these guys have. Thank you, Barber's Den! read more

I was disappointed with this place because they advertise on their website the length of time they will take for haircut. They write 25 to 45 mins, but the barber just worked on my hair less than 10 mins and the result was horrible. In addition this place is very over priced for a 10 minute lousy result. I won't ever go back. read more

Went here today and got a cut from Evan. I have been going to the Melrose location for awhile so when I moved I was glad they had a location closer to me. Evan pays attention to detail and cuts exactly how you want it. He takes his time and made some recommendations. The scheduling is a huge plus. no more waiting in line anymore. Not sure why this place for two $$ on yelp. It's 23 bucks for a cut in an area that could probably charge more. I highly recommend and will come back in a heartbeat. read more

Because of my Belmontian roots, I felt obligated to check out the swanky looking barber's den. Evan hooked me up with a tight cut well worth the price. Everyone in there seems legit. I hope these guys stay around. read more

Exceptional! My son recommended this place a while ago and I finally checked it out. You walk in and you can feel the energy. Peter cut my hair and I have to say he did an exceptional job. Next time I'm getting a cut and a shave. Great place and atmosphere. This shop is great for all ages. read more

Loved this place!! Positive vibe and great cuts! They have real skills and step it up when customers requests something creative. Friendly and completely worth driving an hour for!! Yep, Steve did my hair! Love love love it and I've gotten so many compliments! DEFINITELY recommend this place!! read more

I spent four years in Waltham trying to find the right barber for the new modern style haircut. However, after trying multiple places I was left disappointed with an atrocious haircut. Once I came to the Barbers Den my opinion on local barbers was forever changed. I had one of the best haircuts I have had in years. Stephen F is very accommodative and a pleasure to talk to. This shop has barbers who are up to date on the most modern haircutting technique's and would recommend anyone seeking these type of haircuts to go to the Barbers Den for a cut and a shave. read more

I was able to walk in, get exactly the haircut I wanted, and pay a very reasonable price. I would 100% recommend the Barber's Den to any guy looking to get a haircut. read more

i can't tell you how many times i've had to switch barbers because they just weren't up to par with a.) quality of cut and service and b.) the current styles, let alone what i was actually looking for. these guys nailed it. specifically Evan, who gave me the most meticulous fade i've ever had. extreme attention to detail and great work with the straight razor. this place is where to go for a real barber experience and for people who know how to cut the current styles! (i'm sure they can do traditional stuff with ease) super clean shop, approachable- amenable- friendly employees, and most important, they know their stuff. this is my new place. top notch. read more

Fantastic value for a great haircut and experience. Schedule an appointment for a barber, in a new hip shop, with a talented staff of nice barbers. No more lines, no more old barbers in run down shops. No more quick haircuts with no attention to how you feel during the experience. And a warm towel around your neck at the end to ensure you feel great leaving the shop. YOU ONLY PAY $23. I gave Andrew $50 and told him and the owner they weren't charging enough for what they offered. It was so much more than a "haircut." Thanks Barber's Den. Fantastic value at Barber's Den in Cushing Square - Belmont. Oh, and bye the way these guy's are really on to something. They have another shop in Melrose that is packed hence the second shop in Belmont. read more

Today was my first visit to the Barber's Den. I've been wanting to go for a long time now, as a bunch of my friends have had nothing but good things to say about the place, but I never got around to it. This place is fantastic. Not only is the atmosphere awesome, but everyone there is super nice and really knows what they're doing. I know a lot of people say this sort of thing, but I've always considered my hair to be pretty difficult to cut correctly (I have super thick, curly/wavy hair), and I always have a tough time explaining how I want it to look (mainly because I'm pretty indecisive about it anyways). I told my barber that I didn't really know how to explain what I had in mind, but knew I wanted something "fresh, and a little old school." Boy did he deliver. Not only was I able to make an appointment ahead of time (all online), but I was in and out in 30 minutes, and had good conversation the whole time. Oh - and I've never been more satisfied with a haircut. Definitely exceeded my expectations, especially considering how I couldn't really put into words or describe what I wanted in the first place. I found out they also do shaves as well... I'd love to go back and try one. If they can shave a guy like me half as well as they can cut hair, you can expect to see me on the cover of GQ. I'm typically the type of guy that waits 2-3 months between haircuts, but honestly - I might go back more often because I like the cut so much. 5 Stars. read more

I have been here twice and had a good experience each time. The first time I saw Steve and the second time I saw Dayna. They are both friendly, competent, and gave me the type of haircut I asked for. The second time I went I came straight from getting my hair butchered by a guy over at A Barbershop (my stupid attempt to save 5 dollars) and luckily Dayna managed to take me as a walk-in since she had a no-show. I was so grateful that she was able to salvage my hair and get me looking presentable again. Seriously, a huge thank you to Dayna. I came in quite upset and left feeling way better thanks to her. Needless to say, I learned my lesson and won't be going anywhere but Barber's Den from now on. If you plan on going, I would definitely suggest planning ahead and using their online scheduling. The first time I went I had an appointment, but saw an unlucky walk-in or two find out that they were completely booked for the rest of the day. read more

I brought my 7 & 9 year old in and both gave a thumbs up for their cuts. I liked the online booking, super easy. The shop itself is bright & modern, with a bowl of candy for after the cut (a must for my kids!). We'll be back. read more

After waiting for 40 minutes until it was my turn, they decided to tell me that everyone was booked for the rest of the day and couldn't take me. There were no other customers waiting. Even after telling them how quick my haircut takes (it's under 10 min) and that I needed it for "save the date" photos with my recent engagement, they still wouldn't take me. Needless to say, I'm going to spend my money somewhere that understands the importance of customer service. read more

Fast, friendly, and professional. I'm very picky and anal about my hair and am pretty reluctant when finding someone else to cut my hair. Honestly one of the best haircuts I've had. I didn't realize they were cash only, but my barber was cool with me leaving to find an ATM. Would highly recommend and am definitely going to continue going here. read more

Great place for little boys done going to kids hair places. My son loves going there. He enjoys feeling like a grown up. Staff are great with kids and talented. read more

This place is amazing! It has and does everything that you would be looking for from a barber shop, and more. The atmosphere is very cool, mellow and fun. The owner really did this place right in terms of style and set up. I had the pleasure of the owner (Evan) do my cut, and my beard...lets just say he killed it on all fronts! Evans sense of business and how to treat customers is top notch. I came as a walk in and they were busy but he told me he would take me but I would just need to wait a little bit if that was ok with me. Well it was ok with me and I waited. (Keep in mind this place closed at 8 this day) well at about 7:50 he took me and stayed late to take care of me. What I liked best about Evan and this shop is that I received the same quality of service as if he started on me in the middle of the day as opposed to 10 min before closing. It did not feel rushed at all and came out pretty slick!! I suggest any dude with a sense of style and looking for a tight cut to go to the "barbers den" Belmont and see Evan! J read more

This is a fantastic barbershop: cool, friendly, reliable, online booking, very reasonable fees. The cutters are artists and so is the shop. I am with hair artist Dayna who is incredible. Highly recommended !! I have followed Dayna from her prior salon and really like the casual yet highly professional and creative atmosphere at Barbersden. Dayna is a very thoughtful and artistic hairartist. She is very responsive and friendly, while also very creative. I have not had anybody else style my hair for several years. Dayna's colleagues at Barbersden seem similar attentive and artistic as they work with their clients. The online scheduling option is great. And the shop is easy to reach by car and public transport. read more

The Barber's Den Belmont is the first barbershop I ever set foot upon after years and years of going to chains like Supercuts. The cuts are generally more than I like to spend on myself but I feel like they're worth it and I like supporting a neighborhood shop. Business must be good because I schedule my next cut as soon walk out the door after one. Evan's an awesome guy - has a real down-to-earth personality and seems like the sort of guy who can't be ruffled. He's always great at listening to what I want and is always inclined to personalize a haircut for me - I trust him with my head. The shop is beautiful and the rest of the guys all seem to really love what they do and learn from each other. Keep up the good work, fellas! read more

I used to go to the Melrose location, but I made the switch over to the Belmont location about a year ago. It's closer to me, and they take reservations. I can honestly say I've never had a bad haircut at either location. They're really responsive to questions, and they always have good recommendations on products (though they never push anything). read more

Best damn barber I have ever been to. These guys really know their stuff. Beginning with the online scheduling, which is super convenient and easy to use to the shop itself, I love everything about this place. It is very clean inside with a nice atmosphere. Evan and Dayna both do an awesome job and will really work with you to figure out what you are looking for and pull it off flawlessly. The prices are very fair. I highly recommend the Barber's Den. read more

I am so happy that Evan opened a new location that takes appointments. These guys really know how to give a good hair cut. That said I have never gotten so many compliments on my hair until Evan started to cut my hair. I have really fine hair and have never really been good at styling it. Evan took the time and showed me how to do it. This is the only place where I will go for my cuts. His other shop in Melrose is also greatl. He has a great team and takes pride in his business. Go and check them out. read more

Cool place, great vibe, referred by a neighbor. Evan cut my 7 year old sons hair. Will go back

Great haircut everytime from Steve , great vibe , great price , awesome online booking system .

Went to check this neighborhood place out based on some good reviews here and elsewhere. My big mistake was believing that they welcomed walk-ins. Got there just as they opened and it was packed. Was told that they would be able to take me in 25 minutes. I chose to wait and then appointment after appointment kept coming in and an hour later I said forget it. The women who told me that she would take me in 25 minutes disappeared into the back instead of taking me! Would rather have just been told that they can't do it, rather than waste my time. Most frustrating! Yeah, Yeah, I know that appointments make sense and may try it, but nobody likes to just be strung along. read more
