I just got my haircut by George "G the Barber" Penn (aka "G") and I can say it's been the best…read morebarbershop experience I have had to date. Calling it a barbershop doesn't even give it justice; I honestly felt like I got my hair cut in a sophisticated salon. First and foremost, I commend "G the Barber" for abiding by the safety protocols and procedures due to Covid. He requires everyone to wear a mask at all times and he has ample space between the shop chairs. Unlike barbershops I've seen recently in the neighborhood, G checks the temperature of everyone entering the establishment: employees and clients alike. (And he even changes his gloves after doing this, which most people won't: he is godsend!) The experience itself was amazing because G is very conversational and I didn't feel like I was counting down the minutes until my haircut was over. He is so welcoming that I didn't want to leave! Another thing I have to point out is he is a maverick with his tools. At other barbershops I always have to ask them to be smoother with their blades, clean their tools, and to be a little gentler when cutting my hair: sometimes barbers nick you, and that happens. But with G...I felt like he was gliding across my scalp: no complaints or pain! All of his tools were clean and you can easily see his disinfectant/barbicide ready & available. Also, the decor of the shop is immaculate. The chairs are incredibly comfortable and stylish. It was a luxuriously comfortable experience from entry to exit. Thanks, G! I'm super satisfied with my cut and you definitely have a repeat client with me.

Jarrod is a decent barber; however, he wasn't thorough enough. The last time I went there, I…read morerespectfully told him that he left a clipper line (dug too hard into my hairline) the last time I was there. He barely acknowledged it and didn't apologize. I left it alone, not wanting to shift the energy. Granted, it eventually faded, but we patrons pay for excellent service and should receive that. On the flip side, the shop is (very Gen X Hip Hop-thowback-NYC with two dope motorcycles in the front to look at while you get your cut‍)! I liked the overall vibe and give the shop 5 STARS! If you decide to take a chance and are fortunate enough to get a great barber, then you're good money!

Clean environment, comfortable seating from the waiting benches to the haircut chairs. I personally do not live in the Bronx or near this area anymore but I still take the trip to get my haircuts here. They are that good! I personally get my haircuts with Mr Tomas, he's great at listening to his customer on what exactly they are looking for and takes his time to make sure he does the best job he can do to satisfy the customer. Across the street there is a gasoline station and on the right and left side, some real good Spanish food. You can definitely make it a days event where you come get your haircut, and visit one of that restaurants right around to get some great food.

I recently relocated from Boston to Manhattan and I was feeling anxiety about having to find a new…read morebarber. Men act like they don't care about their hair, but we do ....we really do! So to find a competent, caring and qualified barber was important to me. After searching online for a few days, visiting websites and reading reviews I found Don Nikos Barbershop. The images of cuts, lineups and fades on Yelp and Instagram got me to think that this might be the place I should go to. From entering the shop on my first visit I felt welcome. The shop has a chill vibe, is brightly lit and everyone is welcoming. I got hooked up with an awesome barber who goes by the name Shampoo. Lowkey he is a gentle giant, standing like 6'2 or something, but very patient and soft spoken. He consulted with me before starting to cut, and then would stop and check-in with me throughout the cut to make sure that the line and fade he was sculpting was what I had in my mind's eye. Most importantly for me is that he was not aggressive with his trimmers or the razor blade. I have highly sensitive skin and have had (what looks like) claw marks on the back of my neck for days after visiting some barbers in Boston. These marks not only burn like crazy, but look unprofessional. Shampoo gently lets the razon do the work and does not scrape the neck line. I've sat in his chair a few times now and I always leave with a great cut. I could not be more pleased with the level of service and care I get from Don Nikos crew.

Very clean and outgoing barber shop. The white lighting actually doesn't put you to sleep and makes it easier to for the barbers to do their job. Of course everyone spoke Spanish (so if you know the language very easy to join the convo) Everyone seemed very friendly, knowledgeable of their profession. If you go ASK FOR XAVIER, he did a really good job on my cut, especially considering I was going with a complete different style and didn't know if I would like it or not. Definitely recommend this place, don't be alarmed by all the bikes (motorcycles) outside everyone is friendly haha
