Getting a haircut is a significant emotional event for me, so being new to a place and trying to find the perfect barbershop is even more paralyzing. That's why finding this place was a Godsend. Julian is amazing and does a great job every time. He speaks not only Spanish but English, which is great for guys like me who's Spanish is not that great. Overall, this is a great place with great people who deal out a professional and personalized product. They know how to keep a guy looking good. Enjoy!

This place is awesome. I made a reservation for noon on…read moreTuesday. After I came in and introduced myself, stating my name, reservation time and who I made my appointment with. They took my coat and my bag and hung it behind the counter. As I waited I was also offered coffee. Ismael cut my hair... very professional. Spoke English. Took his time, explained the products he put in my hair before he put them in my hair. After my cut, I was so happy with the service that I made another reservation for 2 weeks from now, right before my flight home. I just wish they were located in Miami, Florida, my hometown. Make a reservation as this place is popular and they don't rush clients.

I had been traveling through Europe for about two weeks and forgot my beard trimmer. I was starting…read moreto look like a homeless person, so after a nice afternoon in Retiro Park, I decided to look up a barber. This place is right across from one of the entrances to the park. They didn't have a wait so I asked for a trim. So happy I went here. Great service. He hung my coat, sat me down in a very comfortable chair with headrest. He carefully trimmed my beard, around my lips, the neck area, then came with a hot towel, placed it over my beard area while he massaged my head and forehead. He then brushed my neck with shaving lotion and with a straight razor he carefully shaved my neck, around my ears, my nostrils, and around my cheek bones. He then took a cold towel over my face to calm my pores and skin, he then moisturized my entire face, and put after shave. I went from homeless to a hollywood star. It was 14€ and I wish I could come here weekly.

Best Haircut of my life. I pay $40 for the same haircut quality back home in LA that I did here for…read morejust under 13€. They have wifi, very skilled professionals, and is super close to the rastro flea market and subway station. I recommend bringing a photo of the hair style you want because they speak english, but they will ask you your preferences such as "shorter? longer? do you style your hair? with what?" in spanish. so just bring the photo to make life easier on you. Plus, they're the only barber shop open on sunday. if you're a tourist like me and in desperate need of a haircut, go here.

Unfortunately, I did not like the quality here. I expected more. The nail texts are very stingy…read morewith their product. I asked for acrylic and they made them super thin. I asked for thicker and they ou another tiny layer. I said it will break and she still did not fix it. I was right, an hour after I left the salon, I had cracks down the middle of two fingers underneath. I am very disappointed. She also did not put acrylic on the sides and made my nails uneven. I've never had such ugly nails. I do not recommend.
