Had the pleasure of getting a quick clean up cut by Carlos. Thank you for taking me in as a walk-in. Very cool guy. Chopped it up about food and culture and family. Very very nice guy! His shops been in cranford for 17yrs now and still going strong. #supportSmallBusinesses keep the hustle going! Will definitely comeback again for a cut. read more

See all

First trip to a barber shop in about 4 years. I won't be cutting my own hair anymore. Really good experience.

Moved to Cranford recently and was desperately looking for a new barber. Carlos was clutch! Such a nice and welcoming guy. He listened and cut my hair exactly how I like it. I will definitely be going back. read more

Great cut from Pat. Carlos runs a wonderful and very safe business. Distancing of customers, online scheduling, regular temp checks, masks and gloves made me feel very safe. Thanks Carlito's I'll be back for sure! read more

Excellent, professional and clean barbershop. Both Carlos and Pat are excellent barbers.

Just had a haircut at Carlito's and I got more than a great haircut! Carlito is very personable, welcoming and professional! He listened to my requests and delivered! You can't go wrong booking an appointment at this barber shop! Treat yourself, you deserve it! read more

Go here - it's really that simple. These guys give one of the best cuts around, hands down. I am not really sure what else can be said - I have never left disappointed, in fact, I have always left extremely pleased. read more

Carlos is a stand up guy and a great barber... with reasonable prices. I've been going to him for over two years and have always left happy with my cut. The wait can sometimes get backed up, but no matter how late it gets, he won't close shop until the last customer is taken care of. read more

First time here and it definitely won't be my last. Carlos did an amazing job! The fade he gave me was the cleanest one I've ever gotten. Carlos is a very skilled barber who gives you exactly what you want. Can't wait to get another cut from him again! read more

Best barbershop around without a doubt. I have been going to Carlos for years. He is able to cut any type of hair in lots of styles. I wasn't sure what I wanted when I first went, but I just showed Carlos a picture and he made me look great! I have recommend this place to friends and all have had a great experience. If you're looking for true professional, this is the place. read more

Carlos is a great guy and gives a great cut!! Parking can be tough but worth it. Hot shave is a plus! read more

Been going to Carlos since I was about 8 years old, I'm 22 now Carlos is the best barber. Not only does he take his time and really pays attention to details but he also gives great suggestions when I'm thinking about changing hair styles. The only barber who knows how to deal with my coarse hair type. I don't think I'll ever be able to go to another barber. read more

Carlos always gives you a great cut. I moved out of the Cranford area but still travel to get my hair cut at Carlito's. Carlos does not treat his customers as simply a "head". He remembers your name and remembers things about you. There is sometimes a wait but it is well worth it. read more

Friendly environment, Great service, A great hair cut and shave. What else can you ask for? Carlos and Freddy both cut hair with that barbers precision that when you leave, you know you have the best haircut in town. I go to Carlos for either a Brook or a fade and to get my beard and eye brows shaped and trimmed up and always leave looking and feeling like $1,000,000.00. I have been going to Carlos for years/decades and of course my son's first haircut was done by Carlos as well. I wouldn't trust my son's hair with any other barber. His prices are real good, shop is in a perfect location and the environment is as friendly as it can gets read more

Been going to Carlos for almost 15 years. You definitely get the traditional barbershop treatment when you sit in his chair. Really nice down to earth guy. Treats every client with respect. Even after I moved from the area to northern Bergen county, I still take my 37 mile (each way) trip every 2 weeks to get my haircut from Carlos. Highly recommended! read more

Best cuts in town. I always seem to get there around their lunch time but I never mind waiting because their cuts and attention to detail are worth the wait. Very amiable barbers with great conversation, great tunes, & incredibly close attention to detail. read more

Carlos has been cutting my hair for over 8 years now. Always does a bang up job, stop by if your in the area or new to town.

Carlos is very friendly, and does a great job. What more can you ask for with a barber!

Carlito's is an ideal barbershop for all your barbering needs. The owner clearly cares about all his patrons, greeting them by name and knowing what's going on in their lives. It's not just mindless chit chat but its clear he cares. His styling is great. Gives a real old style barber shop feel - even takes out the straight edge to finish up your trim. The only downside is there's usually a wait, but the wait is worth it. A great small town feel and a great barber shop. Highly recommended. read more

Good dudes with great command of their barbering tools!

I have been going to Carlos for about a year now. One of the first things I noticed is he has excellent skills in making sure every patron is comfortable in his establishment. There is usually a small line, but I think that goes more to his credit than against it. His cuts are always on point. It's good to see this old-school barber doing well. Highly recommended place. read more

Went here for the first time yesterday and I realized Carlos screwed up my haircut one I got home. I was was so disappointed even after all the good reviews in yelp. This is the first time this has ever happened. He chopped a large portion of the hair in the middle of head, which is completely uneven. This will be the last time for me. I'm sure he's a great barber, but he did a horrible job on me. read more

I stopped in early on a Saturday, there was a few people waiting and 1 hair cutter Carlos, I think he's the owner. He didn't rush the hair cut and did a great job, and finished it off with straight razor on the neck. I will be making Carlos my new barber, clean cut, friendly environment, awesome fade. read more

I went to Carlos about three weeks ago for a haircut, beard trim, and shave. Carlos does excellent work! There was a little wait because it was a Friday, but I took that as a good sign. Customers are obviously willing to wait patiently because this place is legit. Carlos took his time and did not sacrifice his work in order to rush to the next customer, which is something I always appreciate. Carlos is friendly, works hard, and charges modest prices for his services. I would have paid double for that type of attention to detail. I'm sold on this barbershop. This was probably the best haircut I've ever had. read more

4 stars cause no one is perfect. The babers here are really great. Definitely worth stopping by and letting these guys clean you up.

Perfect cuts done quickly and professionally! Carlos is extremely friendly and a master at his craft. I highly recommend Carlito's to everyone, even if you have to travel to get there, it's worth the trip. read more

Carlos is a great barber. He cuts my hair exactly the way I want without me having to remind him of anything. He is a friendly guy and his prices are very good. It can be very busy but that is testament to how good and popular he is considering how many barber shops there are in Cranford read more
