When I first moved from North Dakota to St. Paul, I spent an entire year looking up different barbers to try and find one that I liked. After countless other butchered haircuts from so called professional barbers, I came across Greg's well made website (http://gregzrust.com), and made an appointment (there's a $10 discount for first timers). That was almost a year ago and I've yet to let anyone else touch my hair since. Greg knows exactly what looks good (and what the girls like!). I don't think I was more descriptive than "thin it out and clean it up" and Greg was able to give me the best haircut I've had in my entire life. Everyone I knew was blown away that something as simple as a good haircut could make such a difference in my appearance. I'll honestly never go back to another barber again. Greg is also just a really great guy. When I didn't have a car in the cities, I took a cab to get to his shop, and after I told him that, he insisted that he would give me a ride back home! He really enjoys the finer things in life, and he'd love to tell you about his new Ducati motorcycle and the miles he's put on it. He can also tell you the best places to eat, get an oil change, buy a tie, etc. which is great since I didn't grow up here. Try to stump him! He really is what he claims to be, a "Master Barber". So treat yourself to a quality haircut, and don't worry about slightly higher price, it'll be the best 35 bucks you've spent all month. read more

This is a tough review to write. Greg seems to be a great guy and is very skilled. My problem is that he ignored the one specific thing I was most concerned about. I had a very long beard that needed to be trimmed. I've also been working on a handlebar mustache. I've done quite a bit of research on growing a good handlebar, and a common theme was "Avoid the urge to trim the hairs in middle under your nose." I told him that and that I was trying to develop a handlebar, but he ignored that completely. He said something like "You have to trim a few" (which the dictionary defines as "hardly any".) He then proceeded to trim off all the hairs above my lip to a length even with the top of my lip! This totally erased my efforts to grow the mustache I've been working on for well over eight months (I verified that by checking the date of my first Amazon order for mustache wax.) I'll have to follow the other piece of advice common advice, "Learn to trim it yourself." Having said that, he did do a decent job on my beard, although a bit squared off compared to the several reference photos I showed him of beards I liked. If you need a conventional beard and mustache that won't piss off your conservative boss, by all means go to Greg. He'll do a great job. Just don't expect him to follow specific instructions that don't fit with his preconceived notions. read more

Having moved here recently, I was in need of someone to cut my hair. I tried several, high-end salons paying $70 plus per cut and although nicely done in large part, they didn't get 'the details'. Men's needs are different from what most salons provide as they cater toward female clientele. Details are important to me (trimming eyebrows, neck, hairline, etc) and many of the places I tried didn't consistently provide that level of service. My problem was that most traditional barbers lack style and essentially cut to a template. Greg bridges that gap. He is current on the latest trends/styles (in addition to the classics) and consistently delivers on the details specific to men's grooming. Every cut includes a shampoo, scalp massage, condition and great razor neck shave...and at a sane price (half of what I was paying). I highly recommend Greg for any style conscious male interested in putting his best forward. read more

THE BEST BARBER I N TOWN The image of "Barber" is what Greg Zrust is all about. He is the master of the scissors and shears as he delivers high quality haircuts and excellent chair-side skills. I have been getting my hair trimmed by Greg as young as 18 and as old as 45. When I left Minnesota and moved to San Francisco, I always left dissatisfied going from barber to barber in the windy city. I even flew back in town to Minnesota because I missed getting a good trim. Now I'm back in Minnesota and Greg is still around. Greg is the best barber in town! I wouldn't trust another barber. I always leave satisfied and I know that you will too. read more

Greg has been my barber ever since I went to college in St. Paul. My son reminds me all too often that I am as old as Brett Farve, so if you do the math, I have used Greg's services for the past 20+ years because he is that good. I feel like there is great attention to detail on Greg's part, a true professional. It seems to me that he treats each customer like their cut or style is the most important work he is going to do that day. I will be going back to see Greg for years to come and would gladly recommend him to anyone. read more

I texted him for an appointment early in the morning. He responded within 10mins and I got my hair done at 1 PM today. The haircut was done fairly quick compare to other hair salon. This doesn't mean that he is bad. It was actually a lot better than any other salon that i went to. This is my first hair salon or barbershop that i actually like to visit again ever since i came to U.S. read more

Been going to Greg now for a couple of years to get my hair cut and beard trimmed.
