GREAT SERVICE!!! I went the day before my graduation and Gustavo was a great barber!!! He was really nice and welcoming. Even washed my hair! read more

I went to Gustavo thinking I would just cut off my unruly curls. Instead, he showed me that my hair wasn't unruly and to embrace the wild. Haven't loved my hair this much in years. This personalized one-on-one experience was wonderful. And more importantly, when I styled my hair today, it looked amazing! read more

My guys go monthly and they always come out looking fresh to death! Gustavo is a master barber and you really get what you pay for. So if you want to pay $12 and look like that then go to Supercuts but if you really really really want to look good this is the place to go. He's also Deva certified but I won't cheat on my hairdresser so he can't get a hold of my curls! But I'm confident he would never do me dirty like that! read more

Just went and the cut was excellent. You could tell he's very passionate about his work. He has really bright white lights near the mirror that are pretty cool m. Uses different tools and takes his time. He asked questions about what I wanted and listened, a lot of other barbers I've been to seem to just do what they wanted from the start, regardless of my input. He's definitely talented and I look forward to seeing him the next time I need a cut. Highly recommend. read more

I came 5mins earlier than the appointment. He let me wait one hour and continue. I left and claim my lost, time is money.

Exodus has been a welcome alternative to my usual haircut place across the street (I'm purposely being vague about the competitor's name). Gustavo is my man. Before getting my haircuts from him, it was all about business: get in, pay, get out. He is such a great guy to talk to on top of being competent with scissors and a buzzer. I decided to get my first faux-hawk with him and liked what I saw. I'm sure like others, consistency with hair and who cuts it is key. He's been able to deliver on what is requested of him. As a small business he started a few years back, he's been able to hire a stylist who specializes in women clientele recently. I find their small staff of two great because you get to really know them as well as fellow clients while waiting your turn. You cannot schedule until the day of, but if you have a special circumstance he's pretty flexible. Best means of contact are through their phone number or Exodus Facebook page. Credit card minimum is $30 I believe and a haircut for men is $18. Overall, I'm satisfied with Gustavo's work, the price is very reasonable, location is close to home, and I know the what to expect when I walk through the door. Mo faux-hawks, Mo problems. read more

Don't fall for the fake pictures. I came here couple time. It is average barber and overpriced.

Better than hitting the barbershop. You wont wait for hours behind a lot of people and you can call in to make an appointement.

Found exodus years ago and used to call it my go to place good a haircut. Always loved my cuts and the conversations with Gustavo. Then I started working in the city and felt I needed to find a new place because I thought I wouldn't have time to get a cut at exodus anymore. After exploring the different options in New York, I never found a place that matched a place that matched the quality of one of Gustavo's. So, I decided to come back and he welcomed me back with an open chair and a couple of jeers for leaving in the first place. As usually the cut itself was awesome. He takes his time with every customer and makes sure it's done to perfection. Sometimes that may mean that people have to wait in line but no one ever minds because they know the quality they're going to get once they're in the chair. Also, he keeps his guests (yes, guests, not customers) entertained with friendly and interesting conversation. In short, I'm glad I came back. As long as Gustavo keeps exodus open and within driving distance, I won't stray again. Please do come here and give this place a shot if you've never done so before. I promise that you will not regret it. read more

What can I say that has not been said here? I've been going to Exodus since 2008. There is not one place that I would rather go to than to Exodus Hair Studio, Gustavo is a Hair care management genius. I recommend calling in advance the day you plan on going in especially on the weekends. He takes his time when you're in the chair and is a great to just watch him work, so just sit, relax and enjoy the experience/conversation with Gustavo. read more

Finally, a barber that knows how to cut my hair! Today was my first visit to Exodus Hair Studio and I called in ahead of time at around 3 pm. I was told there was an opening between 4.15 & 4.30 pm. If I was interested, I was told to call in again 15 minutes prior to my arrival to make sure everything was still on schedule. After running various errands, I parked across the street at 4 pm and called in. Put 2 quarters into the meter for 2 hours of parking time. My original plan was to browse the local shops (Atlantic Uniform, Taco Bell a block up, liquor store across the street, etc.) in the area while waiting for the time slot to open. Gustavo said there was an opening due to a cancellation so I told him that I'd walk across the street to take the spot at 4.01 pm! The place was smaller than I expected but cozy and functional. Gustavo greeted me & I showed him a picture of an angular fringe cut (tapered short sides, angled cut layered top) that I wanted even though I would need to grow out my hair on top. Although he stopped every so often to answer the phone for his business, Gustavo remained professional & cut my hair as requested following up with questions about how I wanted my haircut to progress. I told him that I trusted his judgement & he continued from there. It was a good experience, I had a great conversation & I agree with the other positive reviews here. My cut cost $25 and I got recommendations for Layrite Cement Hair Clay pomode from California & a sample of Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Special shampoo. I've finally found a barber that I will be returning to! Note, Gustavo doesn't take credit cards at this time (cash only) & it is highly recommended that you call in ahead of time! Thank you for the great haircut Gustavo! Edit 8/12/2017: I have tried returning in the last 6 months but everyone I try to call, the line is busy or just rings. I've driven by the shop and it looks like he's still in business but it doesn't explain why he doesn't answer the phone (which is a cell phone not a land line). If a rideshare driver can use square to take tips from passengers, I don't see why Gustavo cannot do the same. Although my initial visit was awesome, I haven't been back since so I knocked off a star for that. If you manage to make an appointment with this guy, he'll probably hook you up with a good cut. Good luck getting a hold of this dude. read more

First time client that will be returning. Brand new to the area and I'm glad I chose Exodus as my first shop I checked out in the area. Very respectful, diligent in his work and is a licensed instructor. Look no further if you genuinely care about your hair and how you want it to grow. read more

Fantastic professional haircut from the finest in Essex County. Stop wasting your time elsewhere. This is for the grown and sexy

Do yourself a favor and get your next cut here. Gustavo is a magician. He is extremely talented and just a pleasure to be around. Never, and I repeat, NEVER a long wait. And even if there were, the wait would be well worth it. Amazing barber, great atmosphere, great prices, short wait time..what more could you ask for? read more

Been going to Exodus for a while and always satisfied with the excellent haircut. I highly recommend Gustavo and his professional services.

Kudos to my man at Exodus. Perfect hair cut. I'll definitely be back!! Takes his time and aims for perfection.

The best haircut in NJ!! Just call for a appointment and Gustavo will have you looking great, I have been going to Exodus for over 15y and highly recommend this place. read more

I've been coming to Exodus for the last two years after moving to the area. Gustavo is a true artist who is passionate about cutting hair. He is experienced, detail oriented, and truly a master at his craft. He provides excellent service and will have you looking great! read more

There are very few places that can offer a haircut of high caliber AND not drain your wallet. Gustavo always has a cheery disposition and great stories. Most of my friends now come to him for their hair styling needs and we still manage to keep unique and fresh styles. Gustavo knows everything from modern styles to the classics. My ONLY regret is not being able to give him more stars on this thing. read more

Great haircut, from a great guy. He knows what he is doing!! Found this place on yelp, and won't be looking to go elsewhere for a long time. My new go-to barber shop. read more
