I've been here twice now and had my hair cut by the owner, Benoit. Vibe is small barber shop but execution is like a high end salon, so relative to what you get for the price it's very reasonable for NYC. To put a finer point on it, - After my hair was cut, Benoit gave me a shampoo - After drying, a bunch of minor adjustments were made - After styling, some super fine adjustments were made The day of both cuts I got compliments from several of my roommates (was living in 2 different shared houses, respectively). Really great job. I'm pretty picky about my hair, usually when getting a new stylist I go through 3-5 before settling on someone I'm happy with. As long as I'm in the NY area I'll be going here for the for-seeable future. read more

Bright, modern, pleasant space. Tried various people and somehow they always have unusual boundaries (eg I've never tried a style like that, I don't do beards??). read more

This place is in fact as terrible as their name suggests. I was running a couple minutes late to an appointment and was aware of the ten minute lateness policy. I called anyway to make them aware I would be late but that I would make it within the lateness time frame. My appointment was with someone named Ali. I showed up for a 3:40 appointment at 3:48. I did not even meet the hair stylist before I was told by the receptionist that he no longer wanted to cut my hair. I tried to reason with them and ask them if I could speak with Ali but they said no, and another stylist came up to me and was extremely rude telling me to leave and that they would not cut my hair. The vibe of the store looked cool and I'm sure I would have enjoyed getting a haircut at this location, but I was treated disrespectfully in a way that no customer should experience. read more

Update ... LET still going strong. The hair cutter Hidé always puts in his A game! This place deserves its 5 stars for quality, value and service! read more

I've been a client of Masako's for nearly 10 years (which says a lot, especially living this city), and still look forward to every visit. I mention her and your salon every time I have a friend, or even strangers online on social platforms, ask for barber recommendations. The atmosphere in the shop is always positive and relaxing. I'd give 6 stars if Yelp allowed. Thanks for the wonderful service and skills! read more

If you're human and life sometimes throws you curves....RUN DON'T WALK from this salon. I was a regular client, NEVER late, to the contrary, always early waiting for my stylist. My husband made an appointment for me on a Friday evening to see Ray the next afternoon at 4:20 pm. Late Friday night an urgent personal situation came up and I had to go out of town. I called the salon at 10 am on Saturday morning at 10 am as soon as they opened and shared my situation for needing to cancel. At the end of the day Saturday I receive a text that says we were unable to fill your appointment time and will therefore be charging you for your missed appointment. WHAT? I have never missed an appointment and called to cancel. I was told that was their policy. I shared that not only would I not be returning, but neither would my husband. Two regular clients lost. They could have cared less. So much for customer service and helping out a regular client. Sad. read more

Worth ever penny. Great staff! Masako is masterful with clippers. She took care of transforming what was two years unkempt madness to wedding ready without compromising my personal style and character. But it's her precision and focus that sets her apart from barbers I've had in the past. For gents facing sticker shock, only you know how much you can afford. I remember times I've spent 20 bucks on a tight fade, but if you have an import event, date, interview and really want to make people think you have your shit together - please give Masako a chance and I bet soon enough you'll be in a position this price point won't give you sticker shock or like me, see the value in how a haircut can make you feel. Either way I wish you luck in your endeavors to lower your ears. read more

I was a regular customer at the Park Slope location since they opened. I got some very good haircuts from Matthew! That's why I kept coming back. On the other hand, Benoit once cut my ear so that I ruined my shirt because of all the blood. (No apology, no discount, nothing...) And I got one of the worst haircuts in my life by some dude who was speedily -- and rightfully! -- let go by my next visit. I kept coming back because it was convenient and because Matthew was skilful. But then I -- a loyal customer, as demonstrated by the fact maintained my loyalty in the face of wounding and indignities -- had to cancel an appointment 9 hours before it was it was set to begin. I was shown no flexibility, no reciprocal loyalty, not a hint of understanding. And so I must share my true feelings about LET Park Slope: Matthew is good, Benoit is a butcher, they hire randos, and they have a radically inflexible cancellation policy. read more

If you're looking for a professional stylist or barber who knows what the hell they're doing, while also feeling like you are a part of the neighborhood, this is your spot. The people who own and work at LET are a true part of the community they serve. I've never not felt like a regular (even on my first visit), and I always leave looking fresh. read more

Les Enfants Terribles - Cobble Hill - Fresh cut and style by Les Enfants Terribles. - Hair Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Accidentally made a reservation for today instead of tomorrow, but they refused to transfer reservation to another time and charged the full price - $65. Yes this is my fault but there is one important thing that differentiate successful businesses from not successful - customer experience. This place has 0 customer experience. Why airlines agree to switch late passengers to another flight but a hair salon in Brooklyn not..? read more

Quality service. Feels comfortable like you are with friends. Satisfied with my haircuts.

I love this barbers shop, I went there on a whim once and can't stop. Ben and Matt are so friendly and so talented while being very thorough. Initially I was just having my undercut shaved and polished up there until a few weeks ago I decided to actually have a ladies cut... I'm so glad I did, it's so easy to manage and looks polished and fresh. They really make getting your hair done a nice experience. read more

Booked a next day appointment. I was hesitant because the cut side of the place is modeled after a barbershop and feels less feminine focused, but Ray did an absolutely perfect job. I showed him a picture and he was easily able to create the look I wanted, but also adjust it a bit to fit me. Dana, Is wonderful and has don't my color in the past and as always, she did not disappoint! She did an amazing job on my balayage. It looks sun-kissed and natural. I left feeling like a million bucks. I think possibly one of a best cuts and colors I've had, also echoed by my husband. read more

Delighted! Thank you Matt for a beautiful haircut and a very enjoyable hour in the salon. Matt immediately grasped the kind of cut that I wanted and made suggestions to adapt it to fit my features. He seems very passionate about hair dressing and took the time to finesse the cut until it was absolutely perfect. The salon is very familial and welcoming, I highly recommend it. Merci et à bientôt ! read more

Dave Rico is the best! He listens well to what you'd like, makes sure he has a solid plan, takes his time with the cut, and never disappoints. He can be easily reached via text for convenient scheduling. read more

This business is clean and filled up with true pro-stylists. On top of it they are unpretentious and always offer great conversations.

Went here for my first post-COVID cut and felt immediately comfortable and safe. Ray did an amazing job, listened to what I wanted and I was so happy with my cut. Cheers to Phase 3 of reopening NYC! read more

Cut your hair somewhere else ... lied about bathrooms not working . I paid for a service that i could've had my brother cut my hair for all the hassle. Go to hell read more

I was so excited to finally get a haircut after quarantine. I booked with Matthew and the whole process was efficient and sanitary. They have sanitizer at the counter when you come in. The hairstylists wear masks, face shields and gloves. When I left, Matthew even insisted on getting the door for me so I wouldn't have to touch anything. The haircut looks awesome and it's nice to feel pretty even if I don't have anywhere to go! read more

Love my new cut! Mom is excited to see you! Dad said you better make it this year ! Nice place! Haven't seen you in forever! read more

Les Enfants Terribles - Cobble Hill - I am Matt brother Jatt - Hair Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Don't waste your time. I arrived early for an appointment which didn't start until 15 minutes after the scheduled time. The haircut was then rushed in 15 minutes to get the barber back on schedule, and one week later I need another haircut. All for $60? Pass. read more

I do not recommend it, especially for long, straight hair - where mistakes are easily visible. The line of my hair is not even, and each side bends at a different angle. I need to book a second appointment in a different place to have it fixed. I didn't ask to have it fixed on the spot cause I was afraid it will look even worse. I had a haircut done by Benoit. read more

Matthew has been cutting my hair for years, and now he is one of the owners of this salon. The place is beautiful, new and always spotless, and they offer free drinks as well. Great library of books to read while you wait, which is rare; they are pretty on-time. Only booking works well. They are skilled and offer great style advice too. The neighborhood is wonderful; in the heart of the Smith Street shopping district, with great restaurants and shops. Literally steps from the Bergen Street F stop. read more

As someone with an aversion to haircuts, I can happily say this place exceeded my expectations. Not only is the salon extremely clean and cute as hell, the staff are so kind and helpful! Benoit gave me an amazing haircut (which was much needed after 2 years without visiting a salon) and somehow knew exactly how I wanted my hair to look without much instruction! Super happy with this experience and will definitely be back when I need a trim! :) read more

Old-school vibe while feeling like a fully modern experience at the same time. Popped in there on a sunny Sunday afternoon in late-October (thanks global warming) with my two active 5-year-old twin boys. Luckily came in during a lull, as they were able to take all three of us in succession (though I'll schedule appointments on their website in the future, as recommended by their proprietor Matthew). Not sure I've ever had a haircut that was anything but a means to an end. This was an experience: great funk/disco tunes, cool retro chairs and equipment, great artwork on the walls. And the haircuts were great. Definitely expect to spend more than the spiral pole barber down the street (their prices are clearly posted on the entry-way), but you're paying for the experience, the haircut (which far exceeds that of the spiral pole comp in my opinion), and the opportunity to support a true local business-owner. Great addition to an already great neighborhood! read more

I've been getting my hair cut by Ben for 5+ years and had to follow him when they opened up Les Enfants. Quality and service is un-matched; they're super friendly and professional (ask for a beer when they're giving you a cut). Appointments are easy to make online. Don't forget though - cash only! read more

Have great experiences each time I've been there. Staff is nice, space is gorgeous & of course the haircuts are excellent. Matthew did a great job each time I've seen him. He knows just what to do. Classy joint. read more

I had a great experience at Les Enfants. I went for my first haircut in a really long time and I was really happy with the results. Probably my best haircut ever. The space was really clean and comfortable and the staff was very friendly and professional. David Rico did my hair and he was great. He was really knowledgeable. I will definitely be returning. read more

50 dollars, demanded to be paid in cash, when I just asked for a quick trim? Absolutely overpriced, and it seems like a tax haven. My stylists didn't even offer an interesting conversation. I'm very upset that I stumbled in. read more

Matthew is a great hair dresser, and the staff is super friendly.

My son has really thick Italian/Asian hair. Gary is the only person in Brooklyn who has been able tame and cut that into something that we are both happy with. They are more expensive than going to a barber but it has been well worth the money. read more

Benoit cut my 4.5 year old daughter's long hair into the cutest bob today -- he was fun and patient, and she was delighted by him. The cut was with a pair of electric clippers, so it was quick and easy, and ended up as a perfect, straight line, which seems like some kind of miracle considering she won't stay still for a single hair brushing at home. Perfect...and I'm definitely coming back for my own hair! read more

I have had generally awful experiences at hair salons and stylists - because they either complete ignore my thoughts, go rogue on my tresses, or just don't shut up. I also learned that paying more doesn't necessarily mean a better cut or experience. SO, I was very pleasantly surprised to hear this spot opened up in my old Boerum Hill hood since I visit often and am always on the prowl for a fresh cut. This spot is legit - professional, clean, comfortable, they offer drinks AND they were playing 80s and new wave (duran Duran, prince, george michael - yes!) which is a great change of pace. I can actually enjoy the hour that is my haircut instead of 1. listen to shit music or 2. engage is tedious superficial chit chat. The owners Matt and Benoit were both working and doing their thing cutting hair, which I liked seeing. I'm a serial entrepreneur having owned a biz years ago in the hood and authentic engagement in your biz and clientele warms my heart. My stylist, Alexandra was attentive, edgy (no mom cuts here!), kind, polished and gave me exactly what I asked for while managing my expectations. I wanted a shape up on my usual angled lob with lots of crazy layers. I'm in the pool and beach a lot so my ends are burnt and bleached from the sun. Alexandra convinced me I should let go of another inch and get my hair healthy. Happy I did. Fresh cut, check. And it's even full of life again. Oh - and the convo/atmosphere was fun, lively, interesting and I will definitely be back to get my hair did next time. Easily one of the best stylists I've gone to in NYC. read more

Honestly it was the best hair salon experience I've had maybe...ever? The space was cozy and chill, the guy behind the desk from Maine was super friendly and fun, my stylist Valeriia was genuinely cool and interesting to talk with and she gave me exactly what I was hoping for in my cut. And getting to overhear cute conversations other stylists were having with the kid customers was an added bonus. read more

Ray is a very nice man. The staff is great, sweet and very very attentive to COVID precautions. Much love y'all

I got the worst haircut in my life from Benoit. I told him I usually wear my hair up, or in a high ponytail and that I hate layers. He told me if I wanted something fresh, he recommended it shorter with some layers. I agreed to this but what I got was SO short, ALL layers, and a matronly haircut that makes me look ten years older, and looks stupid in a pony tail. I'm all for giving latitude but I look terrible. I called the salon to speak with him directly as I didn't want to leave a negative review, and he all but laughed at me. A horrible experience that I would not wish on anyone. I've had a great haircut with Matt before so it's unfortunate that Benoit has left a sour taste in my mouth for the salon. read more

This is a great place! The hair bar has professional service with a truly laid back vibe. You want a hair cut? They will remove your hair as requested. You want a beer or bourbon? Yes, they can make that happen, too. Music selection remains interesting and the clientele is diverse. Matthew always cleans my look up expertly. Also, the hot towel is refreshing - a nice touch, then I'm styled and on my way. read more

Super clean salon in a great part of Cobble Hill. The owners, Matt and Benoit, are the nicest guys and make you feel welcome. I've been incredibly happy with the service and quality of my haircuts and they are my go-to place when I'm in NYC. Oh, and free beer! read more

Nice staff, great cut, convenient location right off the G train at Bergen! And you get a wash with your cut so you don't walk out with bits of hair all over the place. Definitely worth a visit. read more

I am so happy to have this place and its team in my neighborhood, and would travel if it was not. The service is excellent! And I heard they just opened a color studio across the street. That s exciting! read more
