I just moved to Somerset and was in desperate need of a haircut. Based on the positive reviews on Yelp I decided to give Larry at the 'Open Blade Barber' a try. I had to wait a few minutes which gave me the chance to check out the very cool shop. I was also highly entertained by Larry's very laid-back dog 'Bear'. This shop is a man cave on steroids. Larry was all business an is obviously highly skilled. Bottom line, BEST HAIRCUT I'VE EVER HAD. I was shocked when he only charged me $20.00 which is way too low for this kind of experience. I am definitely going back and highly recommend this establishment. read more

Open Blade Barbershop is an absolute gem for those seeking an authentic and unique barbershop experience. From the moment I stepped through the door, I knew I was in for something special. The barbers at Open Blade are true masters of their craft. They possess an incredible skill set and are not only excellent at boy's and men's cuts, but also are amazing with women's cuts and color services. I knew once my boys sat down in the chair the first time, we would never go anywhere else! Our entire family are now all regular clients. The ambiance of Open Blade Barbershop is simply fantastic. It's a throwback to the golden age of barbering, with vintage decor and a relaxed atmosphere along with unique modern touches. ...And don't forget the Jeep stored inside! The barbers are not only incredibly talented but also friendly and personable. They genuinely care about providing a top-notch experience for their customers. If you're looking to treat yourself to a traditional, luxurious experience, look no further than Open Blade Barbershop. Larry and his entire staff are the absolute best! I highly recommend making an appointment and experiencing their exceptional service firsthand. Prepare to be amazed by their expertise and the unique charm of this amazing shop! read more
