IDK about yall but finding a barber you can trust isn't always easy The barbers are skilled, detail-oriented, and take their time to make sure your cut looks exactly the way you want it ( Sam was my barber). The shop has a great atmosphere, is clean and well-kept, and everyone is friendly and professional. I never felt rushed, and the attention to detail really shows in the final result. Whether you're looking for a simple trim, a fresh fade, or a complete new look, this is a place you can count on. I'm very happy with my haircut and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quality barbershop with excellent service near Murray hill. read more

If I could give no stars I would. These guys used to be pretty good. Never great but pretty good and consistent. I came here for years because it's just a five minute walk from my apartment. Today was a nightmare from beginning to end. I asked for a little bit more than usual off the top. Not only did Sam not do it but the whole haircut looked boxy. But the worst was my beard. I told him how I wanted it and showed him a selfie of how I wanted it. Trimmed and neat but still obviously a beard. HE PROCEEDED TO SHAVE OFF 95%!!!! I realized almost immediately what he was doing but it was already too late. Although I let him know that I was upset I didn't lose it the way I'm sometimes capable of. No yelling, no swearing, no nasty comments. And after a minute or two he got angry with ME! The icing on the cake was when they processed my credit card they screwed up and rang up $113 or twice the correct amount. And the machine broke. I had to waste another half hour while they tried to reach customer service. Eventually they give me the difference in cash and I can only pray that they don't truly double charge me. They lost a good customer today and I strongly advise you NOT to patronize this place!!! read more

I had an excellent experience at Deja Vu Barbershop. My haircut and beard trim came out sharp, clean, and exactly how I wanted. The service was professional, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I'll definitely be coming back. They passed they vibe check in Murray Hill. read more

They did a great job. I needed a cut and happened to be walking past, no where near my normal gu barber. Looked in and it seemed to be an old time barber shop which I like. Clean. Did a quick yelp check and it seemed on point. Really happy with the cut, they took their time, $30 seemed reasonable. Only negative is they seem to push additional services like beard trim shave etc and much I didn't want, and they asked me for referrals which I understand complete but it was my first time there read more

0 stars if I could. Speaking about the barber who refuses to give up on the 3 pieces of hair on top of his head that he slicks back like his life depends on it. He was seemingly in a rush even though I was the only one in there - finished in 10 minutes. Disregarded any instruction I gave him, cut it far shorter than I asked, and was not apologetic when I expressed these mishaps. He smeared wax all thru my hair seconds after I instructed him not to, and got water all over my shirt while giving me a "shampoo" which was more of a malicious scraping of the scalp. Tread lightly. read more

Attentive, excellent barbers in a nice shop by park avenue without park avenue prices. My go to barber in NYC.

Terrible. The website clearly says a men's haircut and a scissor cut is $24. The sign by the cash register says it's $30. The haircut was very fast (much faster than comparable barbers in the neighborhood), and it was as bad as I've ever had, sloppy, uneven, you name it. There was no one in the shop before, during or as I was leaving. I understand why. It's awful. read more

I've been coming to Deja Vu for 10 years and love it. Sam is the absolute best! My dad was the first to come here, then I started coming, and now it's my husband's go-to barbershoptoo. Sam does a fantastic job with both women's and men's hair. They treat everyone with professionalism and care. It's no surprise that every time I come, it's full of happy customers who are clearly regulars like us! read more

New barbers great and funny got a nice fade and a clean shave. Understood what i wanted and perfected it I will be comming back Ask for mike read more

This is the best midtown value in terms of a true grit barbershop from yesteryear with just the right amount of modernization. The practitioners he all have solid decade plus of experience without being stodgy. Super friendly and truly a relaxing experience as they take pride and care in the art of the shampoo, cut and shave. Definitely no rushing here and that's what the charm is all about! read more

I cannot begin to explain the horror that is my haircut from this place. The older gentlemen on the right when you enter could not care less what my head looked like. He was rude and made me feel like I was crazy when telling him he is doing something in a way I dont like. The top - I get a short fade on the sides and keep it very long on top. He cut my long hair on top with the clipper in chunks and said its ok. I asked him not to cut those and he continued as he rushed through my head. There are not huge areas where I will need to spend months re growing this hair. If this is the style of cut you get.. be careful! When clipping the sides - He chose his own length and went to town. I then pointed out that I am ok with the length and just pointed out that he missed a large patch on the side of my head. He got angry and then went over it with a different length of clipper attachment. He then told me "See! its fine! ok??". Overall, stay far far away. I cannot stress this enough. If you have questions, you can direct message me and I am happy to explain further or convince you out of it. I have never been so terrified sitting in a chair. As for those looking at the price, $21 is not cheapest in the area so go elsewhere if this is your concern. There are actually places for $16 (fifth ave barber) and others at the 21/22 mark. If you decide to try this place anyways, you have been warned! read more

Just went here for the second time, turns out I had left a review on Google Maps the first time around, but not Yelp. So here goes - Sam did an awesome job and cut my hair exactly how I wanted. Prices are great and the attention to detail was terrific. Quick, efficient, done right. Also worth mentioning that in the time since my first haircut here (3 weeks ago), my hair grew out evenly, which is a sign of a good barber. With an inexperienced barber, my hair will grow out unevenly on the top and sides, but Deja Vu did it right and it still looked good after 3 weeks, and just needed a trim. A+ job (again) and I'll be back in 3 weeks. Thanks again Sam! read more

I absolutely love how Sam did my hair. :) I would definitely recommend them to friends and friends of friends! read more

Deja Vu Barbershop - Barbers Near Me - New York, New York

Overall not a great experience. My barber seemed like a nice guy but not the friendliest. Asked for a fade and he didn't fade it so well. Haircut was very rushed.. the whole thing was done in 10 minutes and there were patches of hair still left on. One of those cuts where you get back home and take out your own buzzers. Never a good sign. read more

Sam gives a phenomenal haircut and I will certainly be back to Deja Vu for my next cut. Thanks Sam! read more

DO NOT go here. I would give zero stars if i could. I made the mistake of going to Deja Vu for a haircut and i cannot describe how badly my haircut is. The barber actually said it looked good and kept the money when i needed to get it fixed. AVOID this place. read more

Unfortunately, Ariel gave me the worst haircut I think I've ever had in my life. I showed him a picture of my previous haircut for reference, but he worked too quickly and messed up literally every aspect of my cut. too short on the top, even after i told him repeatedly to keep it long, too long on the sides, even though i asked him to go shorter twice, both of my sideburns are crooked. I'm not super picky about my hair, but I literally have never had a worse experience than today. read more

This was officially the worst visit to a barbershop you can possibly have. I was cut by somebody who is bald on the top. First I asked him to do the sides and back short with a fade, he kept it very long and there was no sign of a fade. Then going as it he wanted it to be a 2minutes job, he didnt listen correctly and was cursing in Russian, which I happen to understand. He cut it entirely bad, to a point that I decided to have him remove all my hair. As a result he refused to wash my hair after shaving all my hair, and added 3$ to the final bill. After coming home I found out there were still pieces of hair on different parts of my head, that were way longer compared to the rest, which is clearly a terrible mistake after already ruining a haircut. I went back and somebody helped me after some minutes to take off these pieces of hair, saying the extra money on the bill was tax, which is untrue. I wonder if this guy is a true barber, because I feel like he did it for the first time without practice, and next to that does not know how to handle customers at all. read more

I like my barber shops to be no frills. I just want a good barber to get my hair cut right since I have course hair that tends to start curling when it gets long. In terms of value, you're definitely getting the best bang for your buck. The haircut costs $19, and comes with a free shampooing. The important part is to actually communicate properly to the barber what you want. You describe it incorrectly, and he's not going to give you the haircut you want. I've been here twice, and they've done just that. Is it one of those shops that offers you a foot massage and a glass of whiskey? Not really. But then again it doesn't cost $50 to get a haircut either. I've had those and besides the barber being more attentive there is no real difference. read more

I've been going to Deja Vu for a while and I always wait for Phillip. His style and patience makes every cut worth it. I always walk away pleased and will go out of my way to come here. read more

I've been to Deja Vu about 3 times and 2 of them were good but the last one was incredibly horrible! I got a haircut with a bald guy who, for some unknown reason, was rushing to cut my hair (although the place was empty). He finished my haircut 3 minutes and simply ignored EVERYTHING I said. I don't even think he's a trained barber or have any training at all. I'll never come back to this place again. read more

Clean haircut, good pricing. Bring some cash for tipping because you can't add tip on your card payment.

Fantastic haircut every time. I've spent hours researching barber shops so that I could find one to call my own. My brother told me about this one and I have to say it doesn't disappoint. Authentic, simple, easy. read more

My hair was cut by Ariel (first guy on the right). After checking my hair after the cut, it seems to me he no longer takes pride in his work and the cut just seemed super rushed. Things that I felt lacked from the service was; thinning my hair, clean shave on the back of my neck, eyebrow trim, after cut hair product (wax/gel) etc. Just the small things which should be standard for a self acclaimed barber shop. Not super impressed - maybe a different barber in the same shop would have been better - but I won't be giving them a second chance. read more

Wasn't too happy with my cut. The guy did it in about 15 minutes and didn't take too much detail in the cut. Afterwards I asked to take a little more off the top and he did about 3-4 snips with scissors and it didn't do anything at all. You know it didn't go well when your girlfriend notices some patchy areas. Unfortunately won't be back. read more

I do not understand how anyone can complain, or give them one star. This is a nice barber shop, and I love the old time look. They are also skilled barbers, I been there many times, have had all the barbers cut my hair, and have yet to get a bad haircut. I have no favorite, I wait for the next barber up, and have them cut my hair. I also get my hair colored there. They have two different color processes, a fast one which takes 5 minutes, it is a wash and takes out 80% of grey. Then they have a longer process which takes 30 minutes, and is a full color. Besides always getting a great haircut, they are reasonably priced, which is almost impossible to find in Midtown Manhattan. read more

I live just down the street from this awesome, old school barbershop. And while I originally visited out of convenience, it soon became one of my favorite places to get a cut in Manhattan. For $21 you get an excellent cut and thorough wash -- which is hard to beat anywhere in the country, much less in Manhattan. I visit about once every other month, and always look forward to my visits. Reminds me a lot of the barbet shop I used to frequent as a kid. read more

Can I get a trim around the back and sides, with scissors - no clippers please? Yes sir! *pulls out clippers, shaves my head on a 3 all over* So yeah, six months growing-out down the drain. I don't know if it was a language thing (I'm British - he was an older gentleman with a thick accent) and he didn't understand me, but he acted like he did. Even the hair on the top of my head was lifted with a comb then clippered, so there is no definition in length. My head is just sort of like a fuzzy tennis ball now and it's too short to do anything else about. Saying 'well, you get what you pay for, champ' with a smirk and lifted eyebrow doesn't really count in this case as most other barbers in the surrounding area charge $20 a cut also. I was taken in by the lovely looking interior. Unfortunately I won't be back. read more

Sam is the man. First time there and it was an amazing experience. Definitely found my new barber

Absolutely horrible place. Came here for hair cut and shave and left with a bloodied face (not to mention still some stubble at some places on the face). I recommend this place only if you want more than 50 cuts on your face for over 40 bucks. read more

Mike the barber is a saint. My 1.5 year old was screaming and he had the patience to deal and get it done. We are grateful!

Ok, I really can't believe this place has a 5 star rating on Yelp. I have just gotten one of the worst cuts ever from this place. Granted it a cheap price and I know the saying " you get what you pay for" but what a disaster. I asked for a very basic cut, faded on the sides and back and cropped on the top. I should have know from the start it was going south when the barber first wets my hair and starts using clippers on it. He took 20min on a basic fade! Then starts to cut my hair which is dry on top at this point. He does about a quarter of my head then decides he really does not know how to cut it! This is after I showed him several pictures of the cut!! So he turns to what I guess is the manager and has a 5 min conversation in a foreign language. The manager looks like he can't be bothered, does not say two words to me, Takes the scissors and just starts hacking away. Once he's done the original barber I had starts to clean me off and take off the bib, No product in hair, he didn't even try and brush it. I had to take the blower dry off the rest of my hair to remove the cuttings and ask of at least some type of product for the hair! Try this place at your own risk! Needless to say I had to go to another salon to get it fixed. read more

Won't honor prices on their website. I brought cash prepared to pay for the price of a tape up on their website. I was told I can't do a tape up and would have to do a haircut even though I only shaved the sides and back and it took less than 10 minutes. I ended up paying by credit card. Credit card charge included an extra charge and I was told it was tax. But NY State sales tax is 8.875%. This was not tax but interchange they charged me. I don't appreciate the lies. read more

Positives: Clean, minimal wait, and reasonably priced for NYC ($19) Negatives: Barber rushed through the cut. Quickest cut that I've ever received (older gentleman). He left patches of longer hair that I had to have my roommate cut when I got home. There are better options that cut hair in full for the same price. I would not recommend. read more

I asked for a fade without any off the top, Sam took some off the top. I asked for a clean shave, Sam gave me razor burn and scabbed my face, which looks like road rash. read more

I hate to write this review but I have to. I took my toddler here, I told the barber how I wanted the cut but he did something totally different and much shorter than what I had asked. I asked him not to use razors but he did at the end and while "buzzing" my son's upper neck he nailed him 3 times, unfortunately I saw it only when we got home and gave him a bath, 3 pretty bad razor scratches on the back of his neck. This barber shop looks much cleaner and modern than most corner barber shops in the area which are usually ugly, old and sad looking. But I won't let it fool me again. I will go somewhere else. For a scissors haircut with neck scratches included they charge $19, no matter if adult or child. read more

Was about to go to super cuts down the street, but they happened to be full. Found this place near by and decided to give it a try. I got a great cut while watching football, and then a shampoo to get rid of any extra hair finished with a blow dry - all for $19, less than what super cuts was charging for just a cut. The shop was clean and inviting, with a very relaxed feel. Will definitely return for my next cut. read more

My husband and his friend had a bromance date to Deja Vu for a haircut yesterday. (Stop judging, to each their own.) And my husband came home thrilled with his new do! Thank you! read more

Best barbershop in the neighborhood. Sam gives excellent haircuts and the atmosphere is very chill.

Visiting friends who live right up the block. Came here for a hot towel shave and it was amazing! Closest shave I've ever had and incredibly relaxing. These guys are pros! The shop was very clean and expertly run as well. read more
