Fantastic experience! I'm a hairstylist, and up until today, I'm the only one who cut my 4year old's hair. Walked into Erik's where we met Max. I showed him a few pictures and let him get to work. He did an amazing job! He was thorough and super patient with my son. Owner was super friendly, and made us feel welcome. We will be back!

Nothing like a neighborhood barber shop. Great experience. Easy to make an appointment on-line.

Go see my man Devin and ask for the "get laid fade". Sixty percent of the time, it works every time.

Marc is awesome! He answers right away when I schedule an appointment. His attention to detail…read moreand professionalism is superb. I won't go anywhere else.

Okay okay okay.... so I decided I wanted to cut my hair into a fade maybe about 2 weeks ago, I…read morewanted to find a barbershop that was close to me because I knew I would be there every other week. I typed in Black Barber Shop into yelp (don't judge me), and this was one of the first that came up. I skimmed through the photos and narrowed it down to this shop and another one on the list, now it was time to do an in depth search of the barber who had the best skills with the clippers. After careful consideration I chose Black Label. For the next week or so I was glued to their Instagram page and constantly checking their yelp like a true stalker. I knew right away I wanted the guy with all the tattoos to do my cut, I searched and searched and finally someone mentioned his name LONG! What a perfect fit, because it took me a long behind time to find out who I had been obsessed with for the preceding 7 days! Finally I went to the website and booked the next available appointment. So Tuesday came I couldn't wait to get in Longs chair to get my cut! My friend came to get me and we took the very short drive over to the shop where there was surprisingly so much parking even after the storm. We went upstairs and I walked into the shop with the dorkiest look on my face grinning as I asked for Long, he was just finishing up another client and I took my seat. Immediately I noticed how immaculately clean the shop was and how quiet and respectful the other barbers were. Long came over introduced himself, shook my hand and we headed to his chair. I showed him a few pictures and he listened to every intricate detail I mentioned to achieve my desired cut! During the cut I got to know so much about him because I was giving him an impromptu interview since I had been stalking his whole life for the past week. After he was finished it was time for the reveal... if you've ever gotten a major haircut before you know the feeling of the final chair spin before you see the mirror and OMG OMG OMG I freaking LOVE MY HAIRCUT!!! I want to say thank you so much to everyone who's made it this far down the review because it's quite Long (all the pun intended)! To Long and your beautiful team of clippers thank you for giving me the best haircut of my life! New client alert!! xoxo

Had the most PERFECT father/son (first haircut) experience ever!!! This place is no frills, no…read moreappointments, just a bunch of guys waiting for first come/first serve haircuts. As a first time mom, I have zero experience with Barber Shops, other than that my husband has had a heck of a time finding a new barber that he likes since the barber he grew up with retired. Since we will be moving to the area soon, my husband figured he would try his luck with a local Yelp search. I was a little worried that my almost two year old son would be scared or squirmy or impatient - just the opposite! He was ENTHRALLED with a HUGE SMILE on his face the entire time!!! Abdul put a booster seat on the "big boy" chair and put kiddo in an adorable octopus and whales smock (who happens to LOVE both octopuses and whales, as luck would have it!) I was also worried that he would wind up with a generic "big kid" fade and trim when he has such a beautiful head of golden locks! I asked Abdul if there was any way to keep it long and "elf-ish"? He suggested a simple "clean-up" with scissors and no trimmer. Simply put, Abdul was a masterful pro. The cut took literally 12 minutes. I know, because I filmed the whole thing :-) . My son looked so confident and proud when he was finished! And then Abdul topped it off with a lollipop to commemorate the occasion while we waited for Dada to get his stunning haircut to match for our date night! It was an amazing and very personalized experience with mellow, patient, welcoming, and kind Barbers who put us entirely at ease and surpassed even our best expectations! Thank you so much Abdul! We look forward to seeing you again for our SECOND haircut! :-)

Melrose Barber is hands down the best barbershop around. I'm done gate-keeping Abdul because he…read moredelivers the cleanest, most precision fades in all of Boston. People constantly ask where I get my cut. I've got a tough head to cut and no one ever gets it right except him. Professional, consistent, high-quality results every time, and the experience is super convenient. Just call, book, and show up--no annoying apps, deposits, or hoops. Top tier service, elite craftsmanship, and a must-visit spot if you want a flawless fade.
