    A lot has changed since I first started coming here. Josh no longer works here as many loyal customers has recently found out, but Mark is great and he is still running this shop. He has added 3 new barbers so wait times has sped up significantly. The layout has also changed to utilize the space a lot more efficiently. The counter is now in the front and there are 2 chairs on each side. Prices increased to 14 dollars a haircut now. Not a big increase, but an increase nonetheless. Still a great deal in my opinon. Note another change to the shop is the business days. They are closed Saturdays now and note they are cash only. Take the elevator to the 2nd floor and it's on your right. It can get pretty busy now due to all the positive Yelp reviews, so expect around a 15 to 45 minute wait.

    Love my cut!

    I had to recently find a new barber shop due to the pandemic. These guys are incredible! Very professional, quality haircut, and a fair price! The two times I visited I got cut by Joey and Sam. Both took their time and cut my hair precisely the way I wanted. I promise that you won't be disappointed!

    Appointments - I called in advance and they told me they only take walk ins...but I did see a couple of people come in with an "appointment" and they casually cut the people who were waiting. Wait time - came in Sunday evening and waited about 30min to an hour to be seated. Barber - I specifically asked for Mark bc I was watching him cut and I thought his cuts were more of my style. I told him what I wanted in general and let him do his thing. Conversation - made small conversation but mostly focused on cutting my hair and seemed to put a lot of effort and patience into the detail. Cut - clipped around generally first, then took the scissors to trim and blend, then razored the tips. During the cut, mark continued to ask me what I wanted in length, sideburns, bangs, top, etc. After he finished a couple of times, he perfected the cut all around to make sure there were no stray hairs and the entire cut was clean, neat, blended well. He cut my hair fast and precise. He knows what he is doing. Took around 30min for the cut. My hair was between short to medium length down to a combover fade. Price - $14 for a haircut. Cash only. $12 for seniors. Conclusion - Mark spent a lot of time and went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied at the end, even though he had a line and it was around closing time. It did not feel rushed. He even told me what was wrong with the haircut I had prior and how he was going to fix it. He told me about how some parts of my haircut would look more even as it grows out in the future. Most other barbers have cut my hair too short, and he made sure he knew in the beginning the length he was going to stop at. He stopped the entire cut at a certain length, then looked around all angles, then cut it shorter and blended it in certain spots. He read my mind; I didn't have to tell him what to fix or what I thought would look better as he cut it. I've been to expensive places in the city and places in Williamsburg but they've always left some strands here and there or cut it too short or choppy. The wait was longer than other places I've ever been to but I'm extremely picky with my hair and this cut was perfect. Mark took much more care of my haircut in a shorter amount of time. I will be coming back here.

    Great haircut as usual from Joe one of my regular barbers. Made an appointment but had to change last minute but he was very accommodating. Arrived in time and was greeted as always like you're coming to a friends house. Haven't gone to any other barber since moving to the east coast and when we were having a conversation we realized that I've been getting my haircut from this institution for about 5 years now. And as I mentioned it feels like coming to a friends house, Joe even remembered when I first came in and my first review of the barbershop. New and old customers alike will always get the haircut they want and need from here. You wont be disappointed.

    The best Barber shop in queens and NYC !!! I'm so glad I've found this place. The ppl here always nice , they actually do exactly what I want and the price more then reasonable. But the Main deal there is the vibes. Thank you guys :)

    Good looks Mark!

    Bottom Line : This place is a hidden gem! Have been to numerous places throughout Queens..both barbershops and salons but this place is THE SPOT to go. First impression how nice the place was. Well kept by Mark. Next was the personnel and how they cared for their customers. Mark's a realllly chill guy and it's obvious that he works for all his customers. Lastly, the place is affordable. $12 only and they'll work to give a five star haircut.

    No one beats the haircut here or the hot shave. Normally perfection is not found for such a low cost but at this Barbershop it happens everyday. I absolutely recommend the hot shave as anyone who works here is more than capable of making it a great experience. Thanks for giving us a real barbershop in Forest Hills.

    Waiting for a cut~!

    Not your regular run of the mill barbers. Definitely a giant step above. Great haircuts, fun atmosphere. Glad I found them.

    Great haircuts and great service. Can't beat that. $14 for a haircut is an incredible deal.
