Did a walk-in and luckily it was right at the point when a guest was finishing. My hair growing out and getting out of control and really need a nice cut. I told him that I'm in the process of tryinf to get a new job so wanted a cut that was sharp. Very pleased with the result. The cost was a little pricey at $40 but overall, well worth it. A good haircut last for quite a while and attracts onlookers. read more

My new spot for haircuts. The guy who cut my hair was super nice!! Definitely going back again for my next cut!!!

My son and I have been coming here to get my hair cut since he was a baby. Over the years, he's had every hairstyle you could possibly think of and more. Freddy always does an immaculate job, and the process is comfortable and fun for all ages. Highly recommended and great value for a quality service. read more

The amount of time for price was not worth it. Took a little over an hour for a fade, A FADE and to be charged $45 was disrespectful. I'll leave 1 star because it did come out nice nonetheless, make sure your day is absolutely free if you plan on coming here. read more

worst haircut I've ever received. barber didn't listen to what I asked for (even showed pictures of my own hair for a reference) and got nothing even close to what I asked for / showed. He was very rough and stabbed me and scraped me with his comb multiple times. He took his clippers to my mustache after I told him not to. He thinned my already thin hair to the point I look like I'm balding. Will never go to this shop again. I recommend this shop for anyone who doesn't care how their hair turns out and doesn't have anywhere public to be for the foreseeable future. read more

Freddy is cool and knows his shit for sure. I only have been once cuz I live in New York and was just here for the weekend but he fixed some shit that my barber in Brooklyn was doing wrong. read more

Freddie is the one you need to see !! When you need a hair cut ..he is one of the old school barbers left..And carries that, past time tradition...Quick with professional results,and good conversation while your in the chair.... read more

I would say its fine but its so quick, i dont wanna say unprofessional but thats what i feel. It cost $40 also for 10mins - 15mins cut.

Incredibly high yield haircut. In 30 mins Freddy: -dropped some pretty great life wisdom -helped me fix my terrible posture -gave me pro tips on places to check out in Boston, as I just moved here -oh and gave me a great haircut P.S. He was also cool enough to stay open past closing time in order to help out this very busy medical resident. Much appreciated my friend. read more

Absolutely excellent cut. Saved me from a bad cut! I walked in with the most atrocious crew cut ever where it was unbalanced when I came to the top and back. But after I got cut the hair was even and stylized. Great vibe! read more

Sully's is laid back, and very cool. Got my haircut done and got a girl's number that very night. So yeah, this is the place to go if you want a good cut. read more

Let me just say, I've been going to Freddy for over 5 years. Now I live on the other side of town and he's still worth the 45-60 minute commute. Always prompt and professional, great music, and the new booking system has been great too! read more

My first cut here was with Freddy and it was GREAT! He took his time and really shaped things up perfectly. He cares about his business and wants to provides quality work to every single customer. He listens, which is a huge thing for me (you have to trust your barber)! I've returned to him and will continue to do so in the future. read more

Fredy was quick, professional and efficient. He cut my son's hair and it took him 10-15 minutes. I would recommend him to anyone needing good customer service and professionalism. Very affordable. read more

First time here, and Freddy gave me the best haircut i've had in a very long time! He listens to what you want, asks you questions and then suggest some changes that best fit my hair and face shape, and I am really happy I went with his suggestions. Best in Boston. Definitely coming back. read more

This place was great, first haircut in Boston, the owner was cool and gave me a fresh ass trim. Highly recommend

Really talented and creative at this barber shop. Freddy did a great job and I will be coming back read more

Sully's Barber & Styling Shop - New hairstyle fits me well and I didn't have to give any instructions, Freddy just made it look good! - Barbers Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I'm not sure how this lady is even a barber she knew nothing about hair and completely messed up my hair. I almost asked if she could just shave it all off because it was so bad and not even close to what I asked for. She took an hour to cut it and just seemed like she had no idea what she was doing read more

I couldn't go to my last barber since he was closed on Sundays and I stumbled upon this shop. I decided to give him a go and see how it was. I prefer to spend less than $25 for a haircut since I usually get a simple cut. While I did get a decent cut, this is what happened to my neck. If I spent less than $20 on a haircut and I got cuts all over the back of my neck. I would have accepted it, but since I paid $25 dollars for this to happen, I wanted to write a review. Even an apology would've kept me from writing this. I'm never going back. I am adding a photo to the page to show you what I mean. I am wearing the dark red sweatshirt and that is my neck hours after my haircut. read more

Sully's Barber & Styling Shop - My first time going to this barbershop. - Barbers Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Nice barbershop To stop by if u live or around the area FREDDY good barber very chill very clean area to greets u once as u come in n greets u wen ur out very nice place n good barber read more

Sully's Barber is a great place, located conveniently next to Brigham Circle and the Colleges of the Fenway (FINALLY!). If you're looking for generic, simple cuts, this is definitely a place to go. First couple of times I was here, the barbers did a great job with my hair. The owner is a middle aged man, pretty talkative and very polite. Also had the pleasure of an African-American gentlemen cut my hair as well and he was very detailed in his work, and took a lot of time to cut my hair. Only reason this place got a 3 was due to an incident in which I wanted to alter my hairstyle from a combover to an uppercut. I trusted the barber (bad idea) when I proposed the idea, thinking he'd advise me not to do it if my hair wasn't grown where it should be. Anyways, he basically just used the clippers and hit the sides and the back with them. Without even touching the top portion to trim it or shape it. Was not very happy and had to go a month with some funky looking hair in the back of my head. Overall, for $15 (student price), I'd recommend this place if you have no where else to go and are located in the Mission Hill area. Just come with low expectations and asking for simple cuts. read more

Anthony really worked hard. In a world of try to move you out quick he spent his time and did it right

This joint is the best. Super friendly staff. Ask for Johanne! When coming in for the first time I was quite nervous to get a haircut in a place I have never been before. I'm from Eden Prairie, MN where they charge $30 for a haircut. With this shop I can get a cut and a shave for only $25. The attention to detail is great here and the barber even did my eyebrows for free! The smaller shop offers a personalized experience and makes you feel like you're in good hands. 10/10 all around! read more

Sully's is not a good barbershop for a couple of different reasons. First off, I will start off by saying the fade that my barber gave me was really bad. The service was by far the most frustrating part about this cut. Now I'm gonna keep it real, I understand that at barbershops cutting hair takes time and I'm cool with that as long as the haircut is very good. But I said in this place and waited for close to 45 minutes to finally get a cut, only to sit for an hour and a half as my barber struggled to give me an adequate skin fade. I asked right before the cut how much it was he said "25", only to find out that a skin fade was 5 dollars extra, AFTER the cut. You're better off going to Sal's barbershop. Cheaper, quicker and better service with way more talented barbers cutting your hair. read more

Nice neighborhood place that just opened up recently. I walk by here all the time on my way to Stop and Shop so I just stopped in one night to get a quick cut. No wait and pretty good cut. I'm surprised there are not more students or wait as it's in a great location. I think they are open until 7pm weeknights even though their outside sign says only until 5pm. read more

!TALENTED BARBERS NEEDED! Anyone familiar with this spot respects the influence they have on the community. This barbershop serves the most diverse customer base in the area-ranging from neighborhood youth, to college students, to local professionals; both male and female. If you understood the challenges of the location-you'd know how underrated that is. Despite it all- this barbershop will make sure of one thing; you will look WAAAAY better walking out than you did walking in. There is no efficiency model behind it. You will sit in that chair as long as it takes to make you look up to their standards. Once you experience it; you'll understand why the price is slightly higher and it'll make sense why everyone else waiting has no problem continuing to wait. This emphasis on quality is credited to both the history of the sullys brand and the stores manager/highest demand barber, Freddy. Freddy has a clear talent cutting hair with a unique eye for detail that I've witnessed remain consistent throughout nonstop work days that in some cases, leak into after hours (due to being understaffed). The only drawback is that having set the bar so high himself, it makes it very difficult to recruit the right talent. Over the past few years, Sullys has gone from barber on every chair down to just Freddy back to a few barbers then repeat. Which is a mystery in itself considering how much barbers improve working alongside him. Most cases barbers become jealous of his established reputation and instead of matching his work ethic, they begin to act up and blow the chance to establish themselves. ESPECIALLY when Freddy always hands off walk-ins to other barbers considering his full appointments. The opportunity is there... I encourage two things: If you are a first time walk-in, go in with patience and enjoy the atmosphere. You won't regret the service. If you are an aspiring barber/stylist looking for an opportunity to apply your creativity to your craft-reach out to Sullys. This shop has bigger plans than just pumping out "satisfactory" haircuts. Why not be a part of it and establish your career/finances in the meantime? read more

Good haircut. I feel the people here know how to get a specific hair style done properly. A little bit on the expensive side though. read more

I don't understand why anyone would complain about barbers talking so much at a barbershop? I come in there to make jokes and talk crap. Sully's barbershop is hands down the best around. The diverse barbers are respectful and have the best scissor game in town. Want a European, modern haircut? You can find it at Sully's Barbershop. Want a Drake fade with the part on the top? Sully's Barbershop got you. I personally go to Freddy, who fixed my hair the way I never could imagine. Anyone can give you a decent haircut, but he puts in the extra effort to analyze you, so the haircut compliments your head shape. The hair cut is done at a good pace and there's never a moment I feel anxious or irritated. Check out his work, it speaks for itself. @bostonsbestbarber read more

There clearly is a LACK of emphasis paid to barbers who can cut Asian hair. Asian men have straight thick hair that can become quite an enigma to most barbers. That said, Sully's sole blonde, Caucasian female barber (who works Monday-Saturday) is a champ. I asked for a number 1 fade on the sides & back and just thin the top. The fade was meticulously done. Granted, she didn't have thinning scissors for the top, but she made it work. Love the clean cut feeling from the razor blade at the end. $25 + tip. Great service. Location wise: Sully's is close enough to Harvard Med campus and makes it easy to get a quick cut after class. Don't know what all the rave with Freddy is about. I guess the guy is the owner? All I know is the guy in the back is blabbering off at 60 miles an hour and then steps out and misses his appointment while I was there. Poor guy who thought he had an appointment with Freddy went with another barber. read more

This Barbershop is my go to in Boston. Freddy is a master of his craft. His attention to detail and his vision for style is on point. So what if they are a little rugged, maybe some would say they "talk" too much, or their music is too loud. This barbershop holds an intimate yet fun vibe that makes you feel comfortable. I've learned that the phone number for the shop is either Freddy's personal line or cell phone. It is best to call ahead of time and just tell them when you are coming in. They are always there when they know you are going to be. And they respond to your call or text instantly. read more

Nice clean shop & the gentleman in the back does excellent work. Nice tight cut with a crisp line up with the raz....i think his name is Jovan. I definitely will be going back & recommend my friends to go see him read more

To start, I have lived in Boston 3 weeks and went on a Saturday afternoon. I was cut by a younger Puerto Rican (he told me) man. Everyone working was real pleasant and easy going. It was $25 for a cut and a "shave". I will address my review in two parts: The cut was real good. He had a real attention to what I was looking for (real clean, professional) and kept making sure it was right. He cleaned me up with a straight razor and it looked very nice. The shave was bad from the get go. I'm no master, but this was just rough. Not only did I have more cuts then I have ever on my own, but the straight razor itself was just put in yet felt like sandpaper. Granted, he did use cream and aftershave and all that. I walked out knowing I was going to be feeling/looking rough. Next day; still have visible cuts, razor burn on 70% of my neck, 20% of my face. Summarily, I would go again for a CUT. Say no to the shave. read more

New Mission Hill barbershop. Good prices and excellent service !

Overall the haircuts I've gotten here have been ok, but the wait has always been ridiculous. Most recently I went on a Sunday when they are supposed to open at noon, and although I got there at 1245, no one was there. At 110 the barber arrived and although two of us were waiting he took his friend who had come with him first. I stayed until 145, and he was just finishing up with his friend. Since I would've had to wait at least another thirty minutes I left. This is the second time I've waited over an hour to get a cut when there are few people there. I don't plan on going back. Unless you have a lot of time to kill I wouldn't recommend it. read more

It's in a good location with great service. Freddy in the back gives really good cuts. Would recommend.

I've been here twice once the barber was a middle aged guy white who was very good and pleasant. The second time was a younger guy with a boom box blaring so loudly it hurts your ears. The second time I was waiting and when the person in the chair left the young barber took someone else who had come in after me. WTF? I walked out. Terrible service. read more

Moved to Mission Hill two months ago and saw that there was a new barbershop opening soon. Great atmosphere, great haircut, and even better service. Franco took his time to make sure he gave you a great haircut. Always a classy move when they clean you up with a straight razor at the end. They've got my business. read more

New place that just opened up. Good atmosphere. No wait. Great service. Only $15 for a nice haircut. They trim beards and mustaches too which is nice. Franco did a great job on my hair and asked me how I wanted things done before he did anything. I'm definitely going back! read more

Freddy always takes great care of you. I've been going for years and leave every time feeling like a million bucks. Great atmosphere and great service, will easily become your go-to spot! read more
