I brought my teenage son to Mario Antonio's on Cabot St., Beverly, for a haircut with Jay, based on…read morethe reviews. Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. The shop smelled of cigarettes and looked a bit shabby, but I decided to give it a chance, hoping the haircut would be good. My son showed Jay a photo of the style he wanted. Jay started by shaving the sides and back almost to the skin. My son politely said it was going too high, and Jay suddenly got upset, raised his voice, and said he's been doing this for 25 years and didn't like "that attitude." Then he told us to leave and refused to finish the haircut. We were both shocked but left right away. We don't get involved with these kinds of people and situations. My son was left with part of his head shaved and couldn't go anywhere looking like that, including to school the next day. Luckily, we found another barber right away who was able to fix it. For context, my son is very mellow. I'm down to earth and would never leave this review if my child was at fault. There was absolutely no reason for how we were treated. This was the worst customer service experience we've ever had.

Before coming to Mario Antonio's I went to a different barber shop and got a hair cut that was not…read moregood. This was frustrating considering I am getting married next week. I called Mario Antonio's and they said come on in and they would see what they could do. Jay took a look and got right to it, saving the day. My hair was a disaster and it looked great now! I am totally impressed with his skills and now I'm looking sharp for the big day. Not only that but he said it was on the house! I seriously can't recommend Jay enough! Thank you again. This is a great shop and it's clear they have loyal clientele, catching up and cracking jokes. As anyone knows, that's what you look for and know to be good, high quality barber shop.

There is nothing manly…read moreabout the place except playing biggie on tv and having the passed middle-aged female owner is a short cocktail dress. It looks like a backyard salon inside ran by ownership who doesn't know men's hair with a small hand written sign on the window that says woman's cuts welcome or whatever it said. We went a man cave not a budget co-ed bbq. All the owner did when I was there is complain about "broke f*ckers" who can't afford a haircut. The girl who cut my hair didn't know what a taper was then when she did taper she lined it.... The fade at the top of my head was super uneven and she rolled over the back corners of my head but left top-hair length worth of hair near my temple. She touched around my left ear but not my right but then touched the inside of my right ear and not my left. When I went home I spent almost an hour recutting it with hair scissors I have and shears. Just got my haircut at the groomsmith for the same price and he instantly saw the issues and got me exactly how I needed on every level. Groomsmith, Scuttlebutt, or Lucky's Barber all way better than this place and all in general downtownish area but always booked so do it right unlike me last time.

Joe does an amazing job with our twin boys. One of them actually fell asleep during his haircut. How about that for low impact :) The decor and conversation is exactly what you'd expect from a neighborhood barber shop. Love this place! With all the other places I tried, I would more often be waiting for it to grow out some before being satisfied or not liking it at all or needing to trim something up on my own when I get back home.

Vincent is simply an old-school professional & has been my barber ever since I moved into town (20…read moreyears). Not only is he the best barber that I have ever used but he maintains a rigid schedule so that his customers rarely need to wait for more than an earlier customer to finish his appointment. Until Vincent retires, I see no point in searching for another tradesman.

I appreciate his attention to detail and his thoughtfulness when working on his craft. It's truly a profession to him, which I appreciate. Sam makes you feel comfortable like you've known him for 25 years even if you've only known him for five minutes. I definitely recommend anyone looking for a new barber to come check Sam out. You won't be disappointed and you'll end up being his customer for life. Much respect to Sam and I'm happy that I found my new barber! Sincerely, Sean, local guy

Their clientele goes back generations. Many who grew up getting their hair cut at George's keep on coming back for a good thing and many of them are now bringing their children or grandchildren to George's. If you're looking for a great cut, for a great price - $12 - this is the place to go. Oh...and when you do go, they're open Tuesdays - Saturdays.
