Classic Time Warp Barber shop experience! Great cuts, not too pricey, and unbelievable decor. Highly recommend!

Steve's editing does quality work service requested great cut-fade and good vibe spot.

I've tried a number of barber shops in the HK area over the years, and Steve's Editing by far is the best. Steve, himself, always makes you feel right at home and takes his time to make sure you have the best cut possible. He is also very affordable compared to all the other shops coming up in the area. Go see Steve. You won't regret it. read more

The best barber shop shop In HK .. A reasonably priced barber shop with a neighborhood. I strongly recommend anyone who wants a gentleman's haircut. I rest my case. ! read more

Been taking my son to Steve's Editing Barber since he was 3 years old. Steve has an incredible hand for cutting and styling hair. My son has very dead hair but Steve always gets the right style for my boy. I absolutely recommend him and his shop of stylists he gets five stars from me read more

I've been seeing Steve for my twice monthly buzz cuts for two years. He's diligent, consistent and a pleasure to talk to. It's also very affordable at $25 (tip him well!). This guy's the consummate barber -- would recommend him to anyone. read more

I pitched up at Steve's in mid September straight off the Sapphire Princess, just he was opening up. I was his first customer that day so my wife chatted with and photographed the parakeets (who were very friendly and chatty). Best haircut I have had in years. I will be back next time we are in NYC - the greatest city in the world. Best Wishes from the UK David read more

Great neighborhood spot with affordable prices. Can't go wrong with a cut from Mario or Steve. Have been frequenting this barbershop for around 2 years and have never had a bad experience. Short wait times, fast results. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a solid cut in Hell's Kitchen. read more

I'm hesitant to give this place a 5-star rating if only because it ups the possibility I'll have to wait longer for my next cut but honestly, it's worth it. I've lived in the city for 5 years and searched far and wide for a decent, affordable haircut. From snooty salons in Brooklyn to $9 Russian barber cuts in the E Village and everything in between, I settled on Steve's after reading about them in TimeOut NY-- thank goodness I stopped in. I'm not from the neighborhood but have been here 3 times and each time I've been given a fantastic, attentive haircut. I vote for the all-scissor-- both Steve and Champ are incredibly thorough and really take their time, no matter how crowded it might be. The place is clean, the guys are extremely polite and I'll be coming back here for years. I'll be making the travel uptown for a haircut from here-on-out. read more

This is a cool place and Steve gives a great cut. When I stay at The Kimpton hotel in this area I always visit Steve's. Walk-ins are welcome which is a nice bonus for business travelers! read more

This is a solid option in HK and better than the other local shops I've tried. I didn't have to way and Steve took his time with the details. $15 for a basic men's cut is the lowest price I've found in Manhattan. read more

Nice place--clean, polite and good cut. Great neighborhood barbershop. read more

I followed Mario over here from the Carnegie Hall Barbershop. It's a nice, clean shop, no-nonsense and good, solid hair cutting services.

never had been to Steve's before, and I went to him, trusting he could give me the perfect haircut before my wedding. guess what - he did it. he takes his time, in a good way and the prices can't be beat read more

I highly recommend this barber shop. These gentleman know what they're doing. Excellent experience. Howie On The Rocks Hells Kitchen NYC

After moving to the neighborhood a few years ago, I started looking for a new barber and there was no shortage of options in Hell's Kitchen. None of the barbers I tried gave me that comfortable happy feeling until I tried Steve. He's been cutting hair for over 20 years, and he lives around the corner so the shop is always open, even if the trains aren't running or during snowstorms. Last year, he almost lost me as a customer after he started working alone for reasons beyond his control. Waits for a haircut were routinely a couple of hours during busy times, so I would literally stand outside his shop 15 minutes before opening time so I could be the first customer. However, another Barber Shop closed, and now Basilio and Mario work with him, so there's hardly ever a wait. I haven't tried Mario yet, although he seems to have a following too, but I'm extremely happy with my haircuts from Steve and Basilio. And you really can't beat a $20 haircut in Manhattan. read more

Steve has been barbering in NYC since '77, and has been at this always clean and comfortable location since '84. Although I first 'found' him on 11/11/11 and have been going solely to him ever since, what prompted this review is that an unknown couple walking behind me on 9th Avenue & 54th Street, literally stopped me to comment on the perfect haircut I had...!!! This is two weeks after the last time Steve cut my hair. Needless to say, I consider him the best hair editor in NYC! read more

The best in the neighborhood! Steve is the best but the other guys are awesome as well.

Very inconsistent and tired of being disappointed with the cuts. I have tried all of them and they have all disappointed me. Most recently Steve was on vacation and I was forced to go to one of the guys that has some poor reviews and against my better judgement I didn't leave. Never again! read more

It's a sort of an old-school barber shop. It does have a hint of coolness though. Steve is a great guy. My haircut was great, and he asked for what I wanted - and got it just right. I definitely recommend going here. read more

Steve is as good as they come. Talented and meticulous, he has the skill to produce a fantastic haircut with minimal guidance. I would wait an hour and pay a hundred bucks for a pair of scissors between his hands and my hair. The problem is Steve isn't the only person at this establishment. I have had a haircut by someone other than Steve twice, and both times spent weeks of grimacing every time I caught myself in the mirror. At a salon with multiple barbers and a decent backlog, or at one which takes reservations, it isn't awkward to ask for your preferred barber. Neither are always the case at Steve's. Steve's Editing Barber Shop is a fine place if you can be sure you will get your hair cut by Steve. But if you pass by the window and there is anybody but him standing, keep walking. read more

this place is aces and echo the above positive reviews in that Steve and Champ are both great barbers and chill gentleman. Love this place.

I was greeted with a hello and a handshake when I sat down. That's a great way to start friendship and/or a business meeting. My hair cut was the best so far in manhattan (6th) and it was at a very reasonable price. My time in the barber chair went fast with some friendly conversation. The shop was clean and tidy. The tv was not on but the radio played songs from a hit station so the time passed by quickly. I recommend Steve to any one looking for a men's hair cut in the area. I will return happily. read more

Steve knows what's up! I've long hair, and I get the scissor cut. He's the first barber to get it right. He knows what I want, and he has the skill and the experience to know how to do it! Thank you Steve! read more

Been going to Steve for a few months now after a long search in the city. Good, Clean, Friendly and takes the time to do it right! He's my guy. read more

Steve met me with a handshake. We discussed what I wanted and off he went. He was very thorough. The cut cost $23 with a beard trim. I will try the hot towel shave next time but I think I found my new barber. read more

Do NOT go here! Steve has cut my hair at least 10 times and I was very pleased most of those times. NOT today... He cut off ALL my hair even after I was very clear about the length I wanted. I cannot trust him anymore with my appearance. He treated me like a throwaway customer. TOTAL FAIL. read more

Clean fade - friendly environment. Compliments from a California native. I will recommend this place to any friends that visit the area. Keep it up gents! read more

So i usually rely on yelp reviews but didn't have an account to make my own. My experience here made me feel that I had to actually set up an account just so that others could see my review. I initially found out about this place through googling where I could get a good hot towel shave (there is that Time Out piece) and through seeing the reviews here. Most, around 80-90% appeared to be 4/5 or 5/5 so I gave this a shot. I went there once and there was a younger Puerto Rican guy who ended up giving me the BEST hot towel shave, beard shape up and side trims I have ever had in my life. I thought - fantastic, I have found my place to go - no more looking. I was new to the City after all. I had an upcoming interview and thought I would get the same fix up I did last time. I went the night before so that any soreness could have the night to recover. When I went in it was only Steve working - the other guy no longer worked there. I thought I would go with Steve since it was his shop and there were good reviews about him. I waited whilst four guys ahead of me were being dealt with. The guy ahead of me asked for his sides to be shortened but blended it with his top - by the time Steve was done he had no sides, no blending whatsoever. The back of his neck was totally red. He didn't look too happy. What're you gonna do right? I kinda felt bad for him. My turn came up and I knew I should have just left. My beard gets totally reshaped and made thin which is not what I asked for. My sideburns then get made super thin and unequal. I have about 30-40% less beard in terms of face coverage than I intended and instructed. He used his electric clippers on the zero setting all over the unshaven part of my face. Writing now, I have a bag of frozen peas trying to get these thick red tram lines off my face ahead of my meeting. I have never had someone do that. The 'hot towel' shave was literally a 'wet towel' shave. And he was playing some action movie on his TV SOOO LOUD that not only was it a totally unrelaxing experience but Steve couldn't even hear me half the time I spoke. If all you want is a military cut hair style done purely with an electric clipper then I suppose Steve is your guy. But anything else.... hope my review helps. Update - its now more than a complete 24 hours more than I have had my shave and my skin is still super sore, I still have the red lines all over my my moustache area and face. Totally not cool. I have lived across the US and world and this has never happened to me. read more

Went in cause of the good reviews however wait was extremely long and there was only one person in front of me. Explained exactly what I wanted and he repeated it to me. Then he proceeded to cut all the hair off the sides of my head. No fade which we talked about. Not at all happy but what else can you do? The hair is gone. It's hats till it grows in. Won't be going back. read more

I got the most precise haircuts in my life at this place with Mario Guzman, who's very detail oriented and willing to spend time on each client. Was heartbroken to learn he'd left, and finally hunted him down at his new dig -- J-Mar Special Touch in the East Village. Sounds silly, but I'm so glad to have my barber back. read more

Plain old very good haircut by professional staff at a price and convenience (walk-in) that makes it a great value...splurge and get a shave! read more

This place is wonderful. I am terrible with hair and have no vision for it, but Carlos gave me the first cut that made me feel cute in years. Definitely going back. read more

Moved here in 2012, and came to the shop based on reviews. Steve's a great guy, always very friendly and professional. It's a little neighborhood style joint, so sometimes the waits can get long, but it's worth it. It's not the cheapest in the neighborhood, but after visiting a couple other places, this is the shop that doesn't make my hair look bad, or make me feel uncomfortable for deigning to be a customer. read more

Ran in to the shop without an appointment. Champ, a cool young barber took great care. Great buzz cut, great shave. Worth a visit.

True to the other reviews, Steve was very friendly and welcoming. I've been looking for a good scissor cut, and he used three different scissors for my haircut. Highly recommended! read more

I just got my haircut at Steve's again, as always a great cut in a friendly & comfortable place.

I have scoured the internet for a skilled barber in Manhattan that does not overcharge for a classic scissor cut. After three years living in the city and countless hacked cuts later I almost gave up on Manhattan. I have finally found a real barber. I had a long mop of hair when I walked in. The friendly Steve greeted me, I gave him a description of what I wanted, and 15 minutes I was done. He did not rush; you can tell he is just very good at what he does. See ya soon Steve. read more
