Place has a cool vibe and decor. For a $30 haircut you get a very good service and the barber was talented. There were some communication issues due to a slight language barrier and that did cause my beard trim and haircut being not quite what I was asking for but still a quality cut in the end. I wanted a slight taper but was way more a skin fade which doesn't work for me. I didn't mind so much of not being able to have the light banter I am used to with my barbers in the past but did wish it could have been better understood exactly how I wanted things. Still the barber was a perfectionist and everything came out even and sharp. I am sure it will look even better after a week of growth. Today was my first time but I will give them a try again, but my advise even from watching the guy in the chair next to me, is to be prepared to put a little extra effort in communicating what you want. read more

This place looks nice but don't be deceived. The barbers there have zero professionalism or work ethic, and are prone to making mistakes. I asked to have my hair trimmed, but kept long. The barber, whom was spending more time speaking to his coworkers than he was cutting my hair, proceeded to cut off half of my hair and make it very short. It looks terrible. This is not the first time this has happened, though I thought it was simply a fluke the first time. Reading the other reviews here, this seems to be common occurrence. Avoid at all costs. read more

First time in this establishment. Just growing my beard for the first time in a long time. Leon was great took his time with my beard trim shave and haircut. Definitely will be back. read more

Place is trash. Whoever the bald barber is is a POS. told him I wanted a cut & shape up. Forgot to give me the shape up at the end so I reminded him and he got visibly mad. Didn't put water or nothing in my forehead and cut me bc of how fast he started moving. Complete jerk off he's lucky I even left him a tip. Don't go here. read more

I had a bad experience with one barber that unfortunately made me stop going here. While the owner tried to make it right, unfortunately the damage was done. Prior to that I had given a 5 star review, but felt at least the owner trying to make it right warranted higher than 1 star for what was a very unfortunate incident . read more

Yeah never again, rather pay $75 for a good haircut, no matter who you go to, i promise you'll leave pissed, every. single.time. All of these dudes with all due respect are not trained and have no idea what they're doing. read more

Nice shop. Plenty of barbers to chose from.You don't need an appointment. It's easy to find parking.

Loved the place up until they completely buzzed all my hair off for no reason because the guy was too busy talking to someone else and had an AirPod in his other ear and didn't pay attention to what I asked for. Never apologized, never asked if he could do something to make it look better, just told me "it's not my fault" and proceeded to charge me the full price for this butcher job. He was more concerned with chatting with his coworkers and taking personal phone calls than paying attention to what he was doing. I have never left a review for anything in my life, but went and downloaded Yelp, made an account and left a review because of how terrible an experience this was. read more

By far the best barbershop in Nassau County, while my barber is Sam Pineda, who is extraordinary talented, most of the guys if not all are "A" rated barbers. Sam is the man, though! Would not go anywhere else. read more

They do haircuts RIGHT! I'm actually "Mad" about this barbershop. This place is extremely clean, organized and has the best barbers in this world or the next. No appointment is needed and wait times vary depending upon the time of day. I found a barber (Ray), who I personally like so I wait the extra time to see him for my cut. To "cut" to the chase, this place is the best barbershop that I have been to! Nuff said read more

This used to be a great spot! That was a long time ago, these days it's a chop shop. For 30 bucks it's a huge disappointment. Atmosphere has become a disaster. Guess it ran it's course, jumped the shark, find another barber shop. read more

My 93 year old grandfather finally let me pamper him with a Hot Towel Shave & Haircut. The establishment runs so smoothly and efficiently. It was very clean and the decor made it that much more impressive. They treated him like royalty and he looked like a million bucks after. My grandfather means everything to me and I could not be happier with his experience. read more

I was here a while ago and I will never go back ever. I had a coupon for $5 off and tbh they talk more to each other then they pay attention to what they are doing to your hair. Seriously it isn't worth it for the discount at all. This place used to be great back in the day but no more. They literally messed my hair up and I truly don't think they should even be open anymore. That's my opinion though. Truthfully find some place different and make sure you avoid this disastrous place. read more

All barbers are experienced and they do a great job. Usually there is not a long wait but its worth it and there prices are good

First off, shame on me for going here since the place opened and never leaving the review it deserves. Moving to Long Island in 2012, I needed to find a new spot as I am very picky with my hair. Aesthetically it really caught my eye. Sam was my original barber for years. Always waited for him, he takes his time and has great attention to detail. He even cut me for my wedding! He moved on for a bit (recently back!) and I've gotten cut by JoeBad, Alex and recently Jaoquin. All were top notch. I've continued to get cut by Jaoquin (as I am loyal) and since I had my son, I always looked forward to the day where I could bring him with me to get haircuts together -- bonding time! I have to say Jaoquin treats my boy as if he's his own. He could be a bit squirmy but Jaoquin has patience of a saint. My son actually looks forward to his cuts from "Wahhhkeen" and his lollipops afterward. The whole experience is always nothing short of outstanding. It doesn't hurt that owners Ed and Jessica are good people. I was so proud to see them on the news during the peak of the pandemic going above and beyond for their community. You have two customers for life, here. 6 out of 5 stars. read more

Some of the greatest barbers are at this place. Nobody else will ever touch my hair again!! This place is top-notch A+. Nobody comes close to them. The shop is decorated beautifully great customer service, all around genuine service. read more

Worst place for haircuts. These guys do more talking to each other than listening to customers. This is low level haircuts

If I wanted my hair to look like I did it myself I would have. I don't understand how you could cut hair like that and let someone leave the barbershop. Not sure of the barbers name but he sits second chair from the door on the left side. I have been to a couple other barbers there that did a decent job but will not be going back after this. read more

I have since retracted my negative review since receiving feedback from the Owner. Perhaps I was to harsh one bad haircut out of the many good ones I received changed my mind. I will visit again. read more

Why would anyone ever go to a barber shop where the owner cannot handle a bad review. Yes I did go every week and dropped $50 on a cut with tip! When I did run to the Wantagh location I threw a few extra bucks because the prices were higher! Yes IM SPOILED IF IM PAYING FOR A PREMIUM SERVICE I EXPECT THE TREATMENT! I took pictures to post it with the post, the owner can't comprehend properly! I never threatened anyone I said the health department should be called for all the excessive hair being left on the floor. Children playing at the pool table tossing the balls as your getting a cut which is highly dangerous! Ive witnessed another barber give a haircut to one client and then use the same clippers and blade on the next client without sanitizing anything. Like this kid Edward stated I waited for Jesse every Friday so I witnessed a lot going on in the barbershop. The same guy that has gotten so offended by my comment never took time out to greet his customers or a simple hello. He's always just walked right by everyone. I never wrote a review I always tipped the guys extra to show my appreciation. I still highly recommended Fellow Barber or Casablanca in Astoria either way your winning! Once again I'll state IF YOU WORK IN THE CITY AND LIVE IN THE SUBURBS ESPECIALLY AROUND THE NORTH HEMPSTEAD AREA WHICH IS THE DEMOGRAPHIC OF THE BARBERSHOP CHANGE TO FELLOW OR DROP BY CASABLANCA IN ASTORIA, THE BARBERSHOP NOT THE SALON! Ask of Zach or Brother D tell them Fahiyan sent you. Eddie you child act like a adult and be a respectable business owner and suck up the bad reviews! I wish I could give this place zero stars! (Just some local news the store across the street got busted for over a million dollars worth of K2 synthetic marijuana so I'd keep my kids away from that area FYI!) IF YOU LIVE AROUND WANTGH VISIT JESSE THE DUDE KNOWS WHAT HES DOING! DONT BE CHEAP TIP YOUR BARBER PROPERLY!! Attached bellow the "suspicious" PICTURE LMFAO read more

This barbershop has gone down hill over the years. The barbers don't listen to you. They give you the haircut they think you want, not the one you actually asked for. Always throwing in "fancy" stuff that you didn't ask for. I've had to stop them from trying to give me a hard part at least three times. Once they shaved off my widows peak (I have no idea why), which took three months to grow back. For what you get, the $28 is not worth it. To be fair, there are one or two good barbers, but the vast majority are sub-par. I've been coming here since they opened, but simply can't take it anymore. I will not be returning. read more

I have heard about this shop in the past, drove by it a few times, and finally decided to give it a try on a referral. Went in on a Saturday afternoon, 3 days before Christmas. I walk in the shop and it looks clean, trendy with Banksy art all over. Waiting area is a long cushioned bench residing in the center between two walls of barber chairs. Walked in to about 15 - 20 people that were waiting at the center bench and along side a short wall. Took a seat in the center area. One or two barbers acknowledged me coming in, no greeting, I sat down in the center. I figured someone was keeping track of headcount and order of who was next in line to get cut. About 5 - 10 minutes later I hear "NEXT!" from one of the barbers, a few people that were waiting looked at each other cluelessly and with head nods decided who would be next. Five to ten minutes later a women who worked there asked everyone if they wanted expresso or water, I kindly declined. Knock, knock Mcfly!, Mcfly!.. if this women is acting as clerk WTF isn't she taking a headcount and organizing the flow? "Next!", "Next!" as each barber finished, and we, like sheep, looked clueless at each other until one person was chosen by the committee of cluelessness. 5 minutes later, "Next!", I look the barber, I think I'm next, but who the fuck knows, I'm not keeping track, the barber see's me look at him and says, "I don't know, Next!". Of course , I guess that's my problem, right... pathetic. Someone else takes the chair. Wow, what a joke. You expect a group of 20 random people to police themselves? We're paying top dollar for top service. That doesn't only include the cut, it's the overall service. With all that said, when I finally did get a chair, the barber was good and fast. He knew what he was doing and I tipped him well. I won't return, and I wouldn't recommend anyone to this shop, unless you want to be treated as cattle. Have some common courtesy, show some appreciation for you customers. NEXT! read more

Yet this place has raised is prices, I still love the skill that is required to have to be a barber in this shop. Waits can get long during prime time after work on Thursdays through Saturdays, if you're waiting for your favorite barber. If not, you will be seated with one of their 12 barber chairs in no time. I've been coming here for years to the same guy Steve. He's great with beard trimming and haircuts. They have an espresso machine for while your waiting, tv's everywhere usually with music channels on. They take children, and women too. The hangout feel when you're here is a great vibe for a barber shop. They also sell their own pomade, wax, beard oil, shaving products and gift cards. read more

See all

I wanted to try a straight razor shave for my birthday, but the Art of Shaving was booked up. Unfortunately, I did not see the other reviews on the second 'Mad Men' group. The barber cut my ear, twice, and then charged me full price. On top of that the shave really isn't much better than what I get with my cheap merkur and feather blades with one hot towel and two passes. There were also some very uncomfortable parts of the shave- particular when he used a buzzer on my face (why I don't know). So now I have a scabbed ear for my night out and a decently close but irritable shave. Never again! read more

I gave a gift certificate to Mad Men in Wantagh for their hot whiskey shave & beard trim ($75). They didnt take appointments. Wait was long. No one there to help customers. It was a take it or leave it attitude. Difficult to communicate with the staff as that most didnt speak English well. Barber was indifferent and didnt engage at all throughout the service. The service was mediocre at best. I was so embarrassed that a gift intended to be a great experience was such a lack luster fiasco. Dont waste your money... it may be a nice looking business but the people inside are a poor representation. NOTE TO MANAGEMENT: You are welcomed to contact me directly for me to share the specifics of my experience. I called once before and a young lady answered the phone. I asked to please have someone call me back and never heard back from anyone. read more

All you need to know about this place is that they cut hair well. Period. In addition to that, the environment is how it should be. It's classy, not cheesy like Supercuts or those crap barber shops that just do whatever they want and kick you out in 5 minutes. Budget a full hour for the haircut. That's not a complaint - that's how it's supposed to be. They take their time, they do it right. Even if you have to wait, it's not annoying. Watch the news. Read a magazine or book there. You can have an espresso (comped too.. nice). Play a little billiards on their table while you wait. Whatever. Place is beyond chill. Been there three times now, consistently good haircuts from all of their barbers. Yes, it's $20. I can't believe people on here really complained about the price... like, seriously? Get a job, it's $20, and you're getting a good haircut. Get what you pay for, right? Bottom line, place is dope. Posted a pic from today, let it do the talking. Did a shaved side part with a fade, like a BOSS. read more

Can't go wrong with any of the A+ barbers. Been going here and their other location for 5 years and never disappointed.

Horrible haircut twice in a row. The barber got mad when we asked him questions. Weird grunting as my hair was cut.

After taking a hiatus from getting a cut from this "gentlemen's lounge", I decided to give it a shot after it's major revision of its identity. At the time the place was a bit quiet for a Saturday afternoon and I was extremely pleased that it was on the calmer side regarding customer wait time. Pros: Great feel and smart decor choices with mini kaws and banksy (circa 2014) art peppered in. Cons: Still no organization to the customer lineup. Customers still need to police themselves which in a way is an old school style to cuts. My barber spoke with his neighbor the entire time and did not engage in any conversation with me. I felt as if my cut was about 10 minutes which in reality is short. Over at Danny's Barber, Gary would give me a solid 25 minutes including a hot towel, face and shoulder massage, and a good conversation. I felt like I didn't really matter. At the end, my barber didn't even use a mirror to show me the back. Additionally, I truly think the Instagram attacks on Man to Man are immature and unprofessional. I have no background on how it all went down but there's definitely bad blood and Madmen (Ed in particular) is very persistent in damaging their reputation and craft. Also a customer posted a video with a more on the side of a negative review recently. Enzo, one of the strongest barbers in their family chose to laugh at the review. I think Ed should really look at that as that's a representation of their company. I want madmen to succeed. It's an original and upscale place for a barbershop. The potential is limitless. read more

Wish I could leave zero stars. I have been here a few times to try a simple cut/fade but every different barber I got gave me completely different hairstyles then what I had asked. Forcing me to regrow my hair and try all over again more than a few times I refuse to return to this place cause anytime I tried to asked for a different cut or barber who would understand what I was asking for either I would hit a brick wall with a language barrier or a complete lack of care from others. Zero Stars. read more

Been their 3 times had shitty haircuts first two haircuts they butchered the back of my neck I had to use aloe Vegra 3rd time and didn't give me anything that I asked for the guy in the front sucks read more

The guy towards the back wearing the Blue LA dodgers hat gave me a terrible haircut. He completely rushed a simple skin fade and it is totally uneven. He was not interested from the first second in my haircut. What a terrible barber he is! This is the 2nd awful haircut I got from him. Would give 0 stars if I could read more

Unbelievably, last week the same Barber. I've been using for about 5 years. Decided to cut in the line for my comeover on the wrong side of my head!! He had no reaction when I told him he did it wrong. Now to giant Payne to try and fix my hair with my right hand like I usually do and it's a comedy act as I mess up my hair all day long every time. I touch it because the style is backwards if you know what I mean. But the worst part about this visit was. He literally walked away in the middle of my haircut. To meet some guy that had opened the back door to the shop and he walked outside with this guy and didn't come back for 5 minutes. Which is b******* because I don't know where his hands were. And now he's coming back to finish up my haircut. These guys have gotten lacks over the years. And I will definitely not be going back. NOW the "owner" responds with a comment that only a pompous bragadocio (spl) would leave.....dude get a life. Also, no barber, anywhere, walks away and disappears to take a delivery!! Hire a runner for such errands and services!!! YES big guy, MY hair MATTERS - so id I dont like an ittentive barber messing up MY hair, dont go barking at ME read more

Update-11/24/2018 I would like to take this time to update my review. After a while and jumping from barber to barber, I was in need of a quick cut and mad men happened to be right around the block from my new place. I was hesitant but said I need it. So I went in and was seated quickly. Let me just say that my review has changed and now I think I will be using them as my home barber. From the last time I was there, mind you a different shop, but let me say the barber was excellent and it came out looking great. His suggestions helped me look better than I could imagine. Thank you and my sincere apologies on the original review with one star. Updated and very pleased customer! read more

Just an update on my review. From having a problem in the past with prices. That was my bad. A large amount of barbers in the area charge about the same price. Never had a problem with service though. I recommend MadMen Barbershop and hats off how they are running things now during phase two of Covid 19. Sorry I took awhile, been away from the Yelp thing. STAY SAFE! read more

Ok haircut at a higher than usual price, for a barber. I noticed that the barbers here don't really talk to the customers. At least, my guy ignored me the whole cut and the eight other chairs were pretty silent too. If this place is trying to build a rep with local customers, maybe they should work on having friendlier barbers. Regardless, I probably will not return to this establishment. read more

Been maybe 4 times. Usually pretty good. This time I got some kid who was clueless. I gave my usual instructions: "don't shave my head way up in the back". He responded "what do you mean?" Not sure how I could've been any more clear with those instructions. I even showed him exactly how high I wanted it. So first thing he does is takes out the clippers and buzzes me way up in the back. Literally the first thing ‍ Haircut was ruined within the first 5 seconds. In the history of all my haircuts not once did a barber not understand my instructions. Worst hair cut I've ever had. Not coming back. read more

I had a great experience at MadMen Barbershop this morning. I got there at 9am today and there were 4 barbers available. The facility was clean and the theme of an old school boxing environment was awesome. I just moved to Wantagh, and after today's haircut, I can assure you that I will be here every week. Nice job and by the way my cut was A1 quality. Thanks read more
