I have long searched for a reputable barber that provides consistent haircuts, is knowledgeable…read moreabout hair styles and types, and has an eye for detail. Having been on this search post-pandemic, I stumbled upon the Groomsmith. Specifically, I scheduled a haircut with Dylan, and since then, I will never go anywhere else. The Groomsmith is conveniently located just on the outskirts of downtown in a small-er shop. The venue is kept modern and fresh with white walls and blueish accents. There are 8/10 spots for barbers and one bar where they serve beer and coffee for patrons. Each "barber booth" is equipped with everything, including hairdryers, air pumps, etc. It's clear that each barber has an eye for detail and takes pride in their work at the Groomsmith. When I first met Dylan, we discussed my typical haircut and he took the time to figure out how my hair naturally grows and how to best cut it. From there, Dylan balances his time between focusing on cutting hair and creating conversation, easily making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. Since going to Dylan, I haven't gone to anyone else. He truly values his work and gets to know his clients and their wants. I have nothing but great things to say about the Groomsmith. If you are looking for a high end barbershop, I suggest you give it

I've NEVER had anything less than a five star cut and beard trim from any barber at either location. The Lucky's guys are true craftsmen and embrace the art of giving a top notch haircut. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Chad is straight forward but very kind to theses rascally twins.

And they love Lina (the dog) and her nose bumps for more petting/ It is best that you make an appointment online and you can do that week's out . It is comforting knowing we have an appointment and not have to try to get worked in. Just a very efficient and successful way to run a business. Pepsie Jabre

Unkind and Unprofessional. While looking for a new barber for son, I located Scuttlebutt and booked…read moremy son for a haircut with Kyle. Traveled from south Boston in over 2 hours of traffic / rain to pick my son up at school to bring him to this haircut. Called 10+ minutes prior to advise of small 5-10 minute delay. Took a run turn at toll plaza and advised barber what happened and advised we were arriving a bit later than expected and explained the series of unfortunate events. Kyle advised they had a "strict" 10 minute late policy. After explaining the circumstances, he said that he would ask the manager Rebecca to make an exception. He came back on the phone to tell us he could not do the haircut because he he "did not have enough time" as he had another haircut with another customer. No one else was available either. We would also be charged for the $45 haircut cost. Disappointed, I also explained to the manager Rebecca and she said she would charge us $45 even though we were not a no-show and did not cancel. I explained that we are literally outside the door and that we were coming in and would patiently wait for a cancellation or a no-show. This was at 4:20 pm. What happened next was flabbergasting. Upon arrival, Kyle was nowhere to be found. No one greeted us or noted that we would be on the waitlist. I spoke to another barber who told me he was well aware of our situation but he didn't know "where" Kyle was. He then went and asked the manager Rebecca "where" Kyle was, and she said "downstairs." We sat there for 40+ minutes. Kyle remained downstairs the entire time. He did not reappear until 5:03 pm for the next customer. We left and our credit card was charged for the $45 "haircut" we never received while Kyle sat downstairs for 40+ minutes. The sad thing is that we would've been extremely appreciative of Kyle cutting my son's hair, and given him a nice tip. We would've also provided a very nice review. But more importantly, we were looking for a new barber, and we would've gladly given this barbershop our business for the next four years for both of our sons while they attend school in the area. Behavior of both Kyle and Rebecca and this business speaks for itself.
