Level Two Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - New York, New York

Richard is the best. Owner and master barber. Great neighborhood barber, clean, convenient and easy appoint system.

The Asian barber in the back doesn't know what he's doing and barely speaks English. The shop itself is friendly but the quality of my cut was poor. read more

In NYC only for 6 weeks for work but needed a haircut. I have short curly hair and usually do a fade on the side. Little bit of recession on my temples - I usually worry that the barber will make it more pronounced. I'm staying in the UES and probably read an hours worth of reviews looking for an affordable, solid cut. Went here based on the reviews and was very happy with it. Incredibly fast (usually worries me but it turned out great). Managed to do exactly what I wanted better than my regular barber. Great fade, preserved the curls up top, didn't go too high on the fade. Gave great tips during the haircut on what he was doing and how to care for it. Would absolutely be my barber every time if I lived in the city. My barber was Sher. read more

Best service just right price recommend Karman to cut your hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love these folks. Good cuts. No tude. Friendly and they do what you want. Clean and convenient.

I'm usually skeptical with places that have perfect 5 star reviews but they definitely deserve it. Nick did a really great job, took his time, and obviously cared about the quality read more

Went in and got my first haircut in NYC after being slightly nervous about where to head in UES. The barber had a high attention to detail and gave me what you I asked for with a great cut. Would recommend and return. read more

Reuben did a great job on my fade. He took his time to make sure the blend was consistent and precise. He also tapered the neckline very well, and ensured that the natural cut actually looked natural. He was also very friendly and welcoming. At $35, the price is consistent with the neighborhood. And, because Level Two is open until 7:30 and situated across from the Q stop, it's a convenient place to visit after work for a quick and professional cut. read more

Read the reviews! They certainly don't lie. Was in search of a new barber and came across Level Two Barber Shop. On a whim, booked with Boris and haven't looked back since. Great and friendly guy who knows what he's doing! They take appointments, and keep the space clean and sanitized. Recently moved, and it's more of a walk now for me, but will always follow Boris and his team because it's worth it. I won't trust anyone else with my cuts. read more

excellent and friendly service new to the area and stopped by for a quick haircut. there was a same day opening online so I had not problem getting in. haitcut was excellent and efficient. in and out within 25 minutes. they put in attention to the minor details and even threw in a few seconds with the back massager at the end which was a nice touch. men's haircut is $40 (can use card) but note they ask that tip is in cash. read more

Best haircut I have experienced in my life. Moved to UES and was very nervous about changing barbers from downtown. Needless to say, the other 5 star reviews speak for themselves. Professional, extremely detail oriented, exactly what I was going for. Bring cash for tips. read more

Boris has been my barber for the last 8 years and has never disappointed. There is nothing fancy, but a simple, convenient and affordable place with skilled and experienced barbers. Boris is incredibly efficient and skilled. I highly recommend this upper east side gem for men's haircut. read more

I've been a regular client of Level Two Barber Shop since 2015, when they were located six blocks up on Second Ave. I can honestly that I haven't gotten a bad haircut in all these years. Although I generally book a haircut with Sher, you really can't go wrong with anyone. Boris (the owner), Hector, and Blanka all do a great job and I've gotten many haircuts by them over the years. I truly appreciate this place. read more

Level Two Barber Shop - Boris working his magic. - Barbers Near Me - New York, New York

I recently moved to NYC and have been struggling to find a barber that listens to requests, is attentive to detail and is willing to offer his/her advice when it comes to proper styling. I am very picky with my hair and even more picky when it comes to my beard, which is not the easiest beast to tame. I was lucky when I stumbled upon Sher. He spends his time grooming you into that dapper man you wish you would become. He gave me a pristine cut, fade and beard shape-up and I will definitely be coming back on the regular. Updating my review after bringing my friend to Sher for a manly makeover. Pictures speak 1000 words so I'll let the images to do the talking. read more

I've been in the market for a new barber for quite some time. My old "go to" barber in LES was amazing, but it's been impractical/impossible to book appointments since I've moved to the UES. I thought I would give Level Two a try and I have to say they exceeded all of my expectations. I had Sher, who took hair cutting skills to the next level. I'm not a hair connoisseur by any means, but I told Sher about my hair and what I was going for. He took his time and used exceptional attention to detail when cutting the sides and back, while keeping the front and top long/textured for a nice business look, which was exactly what I wanted. He also advised me on a beard trim, which I usually never get, but decided to based on how the haircut turned out. It turned out just as good as the haircut! I can confidently say, I've found my new go to barber. I'll be back and look forward to my next haircut! read more

yes I'm a fan, wish I've tried this place before as I live across the street! Camela was awesome and very thoughtful. The place is clean and they will tell anyone to have their mask on if they chose to remove it. read more

just moved to UES and was looking for a new barber shop. this place had great reviews and i decided to check it out. I tried calling to schedule an appointment that evening after work but was told to just drop in and they would take me (that's another plus, they are open pretty late). there was a line but I didn't wait too long as there were three barbers working. I ended up getting a really great haircut and will definitely only be returning here in the future. Price was good too, around $25 for a cut. you can pay for the haircut with card but they request cash tips so just a heads up read more

Blanca did a great job! Would highly recommend and plan on returning. Blanca took her time, listened to what I asked for, and embedded here own style. read more

Boris is the man, simple as that. He's been my barber for 2 years now since I moved to New York and he never disappoints and knows exactly what he's doing. Quick, great service, reasonable prices. Highly, highly recommend! read more

Booked an appointment through their website for a haircut and trim. It was my first time so I just went to any staff that was available at the time. I went to Blanka since she was available and she gave me an excellent cut and trim. I can honestly say that I have found my new barbershop and barber in the city. Thank you Blanka, I will be back! read more

Grew up in jersey and found it more convenient to drive an hour for a consistent haircut instead of trying local shops in the past. Once I found Boris and Sher I finally could stop those hour long drives and go door to door in that same time span. If you need a new spot go here and ask for Boris or Sher. read more

Searched for three years for a dependable barber and am thankful to have found this place. Can't say enough good things about Sher - he is the best of the best and does an awesome job every time I come in. Extremely dependable and detail oriented. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a new barber or who is looking to try a new place. read more

Level Two Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - New York, New York

Went there after reading couple reviews ! I was satisfied ! Good job done by my barber. He understood me what I wanna do with my beard and done an excellent job ! read more

Found them on Yelp and was looking for a place that could do a hard part and fade like my award winning barber back home in LA. It's been a long journey. Went to xrtremecuts, sub-image in Chinatown, some popular joint in east village, and a neighborhood barber in UWS. Nobody could get it right like I got it back home. I was gonna give up on real skilled barbers that can give the right blend of hip and style that I am used to. I called Level Two and and asked if they were open to walk-ins. They were taking walk-ins. Arrived 45 min later to Sher waiting for me. He sat me down and asked me how I wanted my hair done and I went into the specifics: combover with a hard part, faded on the sides and tapered in the back. Problem was that my back grows wild and it's been a challenge to everyone cutting. Asian hair is not easy to cut for most barbers here in the city. It seems their skill set hits a bamboo ceiling too! Long story short, Sher killed it. He had started not long ago at level two but he is a good pick up for them. Definitely a first round pick barber. He cleaned my sides and rounded out the top like no other barber gave before. Super clean. He trimmed the back and manipulated it so I didn't need to bust a ton of product to prevent my "Dennis the menace"-hair salute in be back. Now there was a Yelp deal for a free wash for checking in. After using a straight edge to clean the sides and hard part, I got a hot towel, hair wash, and style with wax. Then the best part: the price. All that for $23! Tip I won't disclose but if you tip, you guys should be generous (25% for the extra stuff). read more

Just moved into the city, usually pretty picky about my barbers and Hector was absolutely great. Will definitely be back.

Highly recommend this place for a haircut. I have to change my time of appointment, and the owner is very kind to fit me in their really busy schedule. I've struggled to find a nice barber shop with reasonable price to cut my Chinese hair in Manhattan since I relocated in here. Boris is kind, friendly and professional. He listened to my needs and delivered a fantastic job! Couldn't recommend this more! read more

I found my new barber! Just moved to NYC and hoping not to try a bunch of places. A friend of mine has been coming here for the last five years and recommended Borris. When I walked in he was already with someone, but another guy was free and ready to help! Nissim did a fantastic job and I'd highly recommend him! He was friendly and carried great conversation. The shop was clean and quiet and had a great vibe. Nothing too fancy and over done, just simple and straight forward. The hot towel and quick hand massage was a great touch at the end of a great cut. I will definitely be back! read more

Never come here. Unless you want a really awful haircut. Didn't do anything I asked and did thinks I told him not to.
