Since moving from NY, I've been looking for a good barber. That 1.5 hour driving for a trim was getting old. I noticed one of my friends on Yelp spoke highly about Mark and I saw his work and I was impressed. I called him up and he told me what time slots he had available. Make sure you make an appointment, because he has alot of clients and fills up quickly. I got to his store on time and had to wait a lil bit, because there was a problem with one of his earlier clients, no biggie. He's the only one cutting but he did mention, he's trying to get another barber. The wife thought since Im getting older, I should change up my style to look more like an old man ...... seriously....lol So instead of cutting my sideburns skinny, I told Mark to keep it wide accentuating my white hairs lol He even asked me, if I wanted to dye it next time, but I passed. Mark takes great pride in what he does and is very thorough and licensed in his craft. I was very satisfied in the finished product and will be returning. read more

Great experience. I was a walk in and will be a consistent customer from here on out. The greeting from the beginning was outstanding and didn't make me feel awkward. He elaborated on how it would be recommended to call ahead next time but that he would gladly take me. Once I sat on the chair, it was all about me. Didnt blame me or make me feel responsible for himself to be backed up on his craft. I knew it was because of me, since he had many appointments but not once did he make it seem or make feel me it was because of me. The haircut was outstanding and he really knows his craft well. Not only that but he is a professional and i mean having his credentials. Not a regular street barber at all. Will be calling next week to get touched up. Have to stay clean cut and I have found whom to go to. Thanks skills. Definitely have them. read more

I was unhappy with my previous haircut, so I had been searching for a new barber in the Allentown area. I came across SkilledCutz and did a walk-in at 6 in the evening (I was desperate). Mark, the barber, immediately sized me up and started to explain to me parts of my haircut that were done poorly, things I knew about and some that I didn't. Then he went to work. Around 40 mins later my haircut looked 10 times better, my hairline was salvaged, and I was a happy customer. My review rating is objective, I honestly can't think of anything bad to say about my experience at Skilled Cutz.. Mark is a great guy and the environment is top-notch. I will be returning and would definitely recommend Skilled Cutz to anyone looking for a new (or better) barber. read more

Mark was extremely friendly and made me feel very comfortable in his chair. He really took the time to concentrate on my cut. I didn't feel rushed at all. I could see all his pics hanging of great work that he's done before. He showed me his barber license and I could clearly see all the cleansers he uses often on his equipment. He explained what he was doing every step of the way and even showed me progress pics. He gave me the best undercut I've ever had and I have found my new place! So thankful for all the yelp pics and reviews that helped me find this amazing barber! (There's also a lot of pics on his Facebook) BONUS- his prices are great!!! I paid half what I paid elsewhere and Mark did a much better job. read more

Mark, really appreciated the time you took, to explain my cut. I am sure percent, that you are the first barber/stylist that gave AMAZING energy to a haircut. Cutting hair is definitely your calling. I love that personal feel of your shop along with the appointment only system. That is very accommodating. A Diamond in the Ruff, is exactly, what your shop is. And lastly, your neighborhood connection is dope as FUQ, oopps.... NO PROFANITY! Gotta love the kids!! Lol!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, YOU EXUBERATE PASSION FOR HAIR!!! I LOVE IT! THANKS FOR BEGINNING OF FIXING MY HAIR!! read more

I Went Into The Shop Today Because I Had Just Gotten A Haircut, And It Was Done Terribly. So I Was Hoping This Place Can Help Me Out, And It Definitely Delivered. Mark, The Barber, Saw My Cut And Immediately Knew What To Do To Fix The Mistakes. He Also Explained To Me How To Take Better Care Of My Hair, And Key Things To Keep In Mind When Going To A Barber Shop. I Absolutely Found My New Barber, And It's Someone Who Is Very Passionate About Their Work And Wants Customers Happy. Check The Place Out, You Won't Be Disappointed!! Thanks Again, Skillz. read more

First time at the establishment. It is sometimes hard finding a skilled barber but "Skilled Cutz" did a great job. One barber chair so just call for an appointment. The Barber didn't hesitate to strike up a conversation and also gave tips to keep my hair healthy and looking good. Although there were other patrons waiting I didn't feel as if the cut was rushed to accommodate others. Price was comparable to other shops I've visited across the country. You can watch Netflix inside as you wait. Always a plus. Thanks! read more

Having been to most of the barber shops in Allentown, this place is easily the best. Mr. Mark has perfected his craft and gives the best haircut by far. Compared to other locations around Allentown, this place is the safest. There isn't enough good things I can say about Mr. Mark and his shop. He is a consummate professional and I will be getting my haircuts there from now on. Best haircut I've ever had. read more

Great experience! First of many visits I'll be making to this shop. Mark is a very personable professional person that's all about his craft. He works fast, but would never sacrifice quality to get you out of the chair in a hurry to make way for the next client. Do yourself a favor. Make an appointment, and enjoy the best haircut you could ask for. Thanks Mark! See you next week. read more

It's very hard for my boyfriend to find the right barber but we took our chances. & let me tell you, Mark is AWESOME! He knows exactly what he is doing and can explain in every detail why he is doing it! Not only is he a great barber but an amazing father! I have much respect for him and his work. Hard working man! Make an appointment & come check him out!!! read more

This barber is the f..ing bomb. Like he gave me the best haircut I've had ever ever. Got so many compliments and just about got laid that same night. He made me feel like I was a celebrity getting styled by my personal stylist. I'll be back next time Im in Allentown. Im from NY and none these barbers in NY can compare. This guy needs to be in Hollywood. read more

This dude is off the chain. I felt like a million bucks the second I walked into his one man show. I haven't gone to anyone since and do not plan to either! Unless he becomes famous and drops out of Allentown. Motivational speaker to say the least. Always respectful, thankful and happy to see anyone make their way in to grab a cut or just say hello. read more

Right before visiting Mark, I had gotten an absolutely terrible haircut from another barber. Luckily, I showed up to Skilled Cutz and was able to fix the atrocity on my head haha. In all seriousness, Mark not only can demonstrate his skills as an experienced barber but he is also very kind and inviting. Can't wait till my next cut Mark! read more

I found the perfect barber!! I checked out this site and did some additional research and Mark's a perfect fit. Everything that was said in previous reviews are accurate and I am so happy that I found him. As a woman, this shop offers me everything I need. Definitely a gem!!! Thank you Mark. (Pics to follow) read more

Mark cut my 102 year old aunt's hair and did a great job. He is an outstanding person with a wonderful attitude toward life that is even more valuable than his skill as a barber. Do call first to make sure you get to meet him and don't give up if you don't succeed the first time. read more

Mr. Mark has been cutting my hair for years and has never steered me in the wrong. I come into the barber shop and I feel at home he listen to whatever I have to say and then gives me life lesson to do what I please he's one of the best and most trust worthy barber I know of read more

I came in this Monday, after hours actually, but he agreed on the phone to meet me there. Not only did I get an amazing cut, but we had a great conversation as well! I would highly recommend Skilled Cutz, the name is definitely true, Mark is really a master at his craft! read more

I've always had a hard time finding a place to do my hair and when I cut it short I had an even harder time finding someone who knew how to cut a woman's hair. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair after coming here. Definitely going to keep going back! read more

Excellent barber. I got to Skilled Cutz every month to get my hair cut and never been disappointed since my first appointment. Will recommend anyone in the area to stop by this babershop if you're looking for a quality haircut and positive atmosphere. read more
