Eddie is the man! I've been to a lot of barbers over the years, but nobody comes close to the…read moreconsistency and attention to detail Eddie brings to every cut. He always takes the time to get it just right, checks in throughout, and somehow remembers exactly how I like it even months later. The shop itself has a great local vibe, clean, comfortable, and welcoming, but it's Eddie's professionalism and skill that make me keep coming back. Whether it's a quick cleanup or a full restyle, he nails it every time. Highly recommend Eddie at Dente's if you're looking for a reliable, high-quality barber in Somerville. You'll walk out feeling fresh every time.

A barber named Kemet took 1.5 hours to give me the worst haircut of my life. He nicked the back of…read moremy head with his razor, gave me a bald spot on my cowlick, and a completely uneven taper. He was very rude and honestly seemed high out of his mind to be quite honest. He also was making a lot of rude comments about cutting 'women's hair' (i am queer and have had a standard men's cut for the last 10 years, nothing crazy. I go to barbershops all the time, and I told him I could leave if he was uncomfortable cutting my hair). I should have just walked out. Avoid this place at all cost.

Pros: Sharp haircut Pay attention to details Barber listen carefully and delivers Street parking is available but for Chelsea residents with sticker. No meter parking. Price for a haircut is reasonable $15. Con: I got almost 2 hrs long hair cut (longest ever haircut in the history of mankind. Lol) The kid (i think his name is Santiyag) who cut my hairs is a gifted barber and did an incredible job but he needs a lot of grooming Credit cards not accepted. It's a cash only shop. Here is why i took 1 star: When i asked for the total, he said $25 cause i had asked for beard linings. I asked how much was the haircut. He started mumbling and said something I couldn't understand and then said oh yea you had a hair cut too so it's $20. It could have been be an honest mistake but to me at the time it seemed like cheating.

This place is more expensive than high end barbershops in Boston... If you want a typical fade, I would go literally anywhere else before going here.

Really disappointed with Phil's lately, not because the haircut is mediocre at best (it's always…read moreonly been a 2-star haircut...) but more so because it's become a politically charged conversation where all Phil and Cindy do is focus on complaining about how they are being targeted unfairly for some silly parking disputes. Last I checked they were a service based business that focused on cutting hair making people look/feel good. If they would focus on that, they'd do themselves a favor and maybe they'd get 3-stars. A local business like this needs to set the tone by taking the high road, adapting to the changing world around them, and make a welcome space for all their customers. I want to laugh a little and then I want the barber to shut up and cut my hair. Instead, you get an earful of negativity from these two about how they're victims, and I leave with one side being uneven and I'm stressed and frustrated. This is not the barbershop experience I knew there 10 or 15 years ago. This review written with full disapproving-dad face due to the childish nature of two formerly solid barbers. I've taken my business down the street to some better barbers in Arlington that give good haircuts and focus on the person in the chair, not griping about their own victim mentality. Fast Phil's was once a decent spot. Now, they're just bitter divisive people that should have put the clippers down a while ago.

Whatever the occasion is, I would come here. It's perhaps the one place that can guarantee you a decent haircut.

They have no host at the front desk, which would be fine if every single barber in there didn't have an attitude as big as their gut. Before I even sat down for a haircut I was already given attitude by some douche working there who acted incredibly annoyed when he asked me if I had an appointment. I told him I did, and who I was there to see, and during that whole process he seemed annoyed that I was even there. This was the first red flag. The second red flag is after telling my barber that I wanted a low/mid skin fade (probably one of the most common haircuts for men in their 20-30's to get) he told me he "only does high fades" okay bozo - then why do you let people book different styles of haircuts through the app, which include all different types of fades? The haircut came out like absolute shit, which is no surprise given that my barber was ripping a cannabis vape for the entire duration of my haircut, during said haircut he spent the entire time talking about his history of drug use and all of his "past" issues with the law.....wtf? He almost seemed proud to be a complete loser. On top of ALL of this nonsense, this place charges more for a haircut than half of the "high end" barbershops in downtown Boston. Absolute joke. Anyone dumb enough to return here a second time almost deserves to be ripped off. This place is absolute garbage and I hope they go out of business soon.
