I remember the shop closed early the day I attended and they had to cut people off at the door. Hair looked amazing! pretty sure I posted a pic on yelp when I checked in. Maybe I'll be back some day :) PS-These dudes had Boston accents (s#*t had me rolling).

What do I say about a man who is well known already in his community???…read more Not much. Josh, the owner, the barber, the man is one to go if you need a haircut and I mean any type. I have been around the area for 2 years now and tried quite a few however it's not easy to find someone who understands facial structure, u as a person and also the work you do. I am not in a job where one can go bonkers neither do I would like as a person and he was guarded from the first minute. I liked that he didn't fan my wild side and neither did he try to ignite those crazy moments which usually ends up one questioning ones decisions. Yes, I do take haircut seriously although it might not look that way. Presentation is all that matters. Thanks to him he slowly guided me through all the nuances of the fades( yes, I am a novice ) and the changes one might need (lifestyle - think about the time u need to spend). Worcester: you found an artist. Not only am happy but am waiting for this pandemic crisis to be over so that we all can get back to our life safely(sans the politics please). Communication is key we all learn and Josh is killing it. Even before the big corporations come out with their notifications of what the MA gov(not naming as this will definitely change with time) rules, his has always been the first. Can't wait to get back to his den and get my look back. He doesn't give a haircut, he transforms. He makes you look sharp and the way you wanna look. Message for you Josh: keep changing the face of the woo!!

New to Worcester as a college student and looking for a cool place to get a haircut. When I walked in the environment was very friendly and welcoming. There wasn't a long wait for me to get in a chair, but these barbers take their time and truly make sure you leave looking sharp with product in your hair and almost no little hairs on your neck or face. Amazing attention to detail and would definitely come back again, they are even better than the people that cut my hair back home! read more

This is definitely the best barber shop that I have ever been to. These guys are incredible.! Friendly, professional and their unique sense of humor keeps me laughing from the time I walk in until I leave. The shop is definitely Worcester... They sell local art and embrace the Shrewsbury St. atmosphere. It is a must visit.!!!! read more

The staff is friendly and most times the wait (if there is one) is not long. There's a flat screen tv on the wall to keep yourself occupied, or the kids for that matter.
