    Kids haircut
    Diana A.

    Took my 12 year old here who has an old perm coming out and difficult line up due to a couple of cow licks. They did a great job and were very quick! Even though my preteen was upset he had to cut his Mop hair off. Definitely recommend!

    One of the worst cuts I've ever gotten in NYC. The lady barber used a clipper to line up my hairline and did not use a razor (which means there are random hairs poking out and she pushed back my hairline as well). I also asked for a mid-fade with a drop and she gave a high fade no drop. I gave her a tip anyways but would avoid her for sure. Not sure if the other barbers are better but they are nice people.

    Worst haircut I have ever gotten at a barbershop

    Updating this review so all people of color will know exactly how this place functions. If you are black /have curly and coarse hair, please be sure to read my review below. I will never forget the horrible experiences I have had here. Every person of color should know what they are getting into before they sit in one of those chairs: Unfortunately this place has gone down in the quality of their service. When I first came here, the barbers would spend all of the time they needed to make sure you come out looking great. Now they cycle you in and out to make money since there is always a line outside. There were two disastrous times I went here. I would first like to warn all black people - DO NOT GO TO THIS BARBER SHOP IF YOU ARE BLACK. They do not know how to treat black hair and do not spend the time required to care for black hair. First incident: I came in to get a shave before my laser hair removal. I told them that since I am black and have sensitive skin, I get horrible razor burn from my dark and coarse hair. I requested one barber who did a good job before and instead they gabe me a very old man with a shaky arm who took clippers I told him not to use and shaved against the grain on my face when I asked him not to. I broke out on my face for a month. It took that long for the painful pimples and ingrowns to go away. Second incident: I went in a couple days ago after getting my hair permed to get the pompadour I posted a picture of. They did a great job before. I requested the same guy and AGAIN he sent me to someone else. I said I didn't mind waiting because I spend a lot of money on my hair, had a bad experience with the old man before, but I know that this guy does a great job. He instead gave the barber closest to the window a half-assed description of what my cut was like. Even when U showed the barber a photo, gave him verbal and nonverbal prompts on what to do, he STILL messed it up. I told him not to cut the hair on the top of my head and he cut half of it off. I was still walking him through the process and he stopped the cut because he was getting fed up, it was taking long and he saw that there was more money outside of the door. I still tipped him well and had people looking at me crazy when I left the shop because my hair looked HORRIBLE. I will post a picture after writing this review. I had to go home and fix what he messed up. A WARNING TO ALL BLACK PEOPLE: Do not go to this barber shop. African American hair requires time, an attentive hand and eye, and most importantly a patient barber that us willing to work with you. The people there do not seem to understand the difference between black and white hair. They get a lot of business men in suits who want to get in and get out and get the same haircuts as everyone else. This barber shop is good for one hairstyle for one type of client. If you don't fit that description, then buyer beware.

    My son and I needed haircuts and between the rave reviews here and the proximity to our hotel it seemed that we couldn't miss. I'm happy to report that the great reviews are spot on. I showed the woman (unfortunately I didn't catch her name) a picture of my usual haircut and not only did she match it, she even improved it a bit. I'm now using the current version as my reference photo. My son loved his haircut too. Next time I'm in town I'm heading right back to Premium Barber Shop.

    My favorite barber in New York City! If you go in premium Barber Shop make sure you ask for Alex,he is the best over there!

    I've been coming to Artur for 6 years. He's in the best barber in the city hands down, and the nicest guy. There's no one better.

    I decided to try an upscale salon to see if there was truly a difference in the care and attention…read more From start to finish it was a great experience. Oka took an extraordinary amount of time talking to me and making sure to cut my hair as I expected. He was terrific. And so was Lake the individual who washed my hair. Never had so much attention paid to a wash. I will definitely be using this salon and in particular Oka from now on.

But most of those glowing reviews are pre-covid. I don't know if a lot of their stylists left but there's a notable lack of reviews post-covid. They're kind and the space feels lux and quiet. Problem is communication, went multiple times feeling very whelmed and changed stylist every time. After my third time I think I'm done, I've shown pictures and discussed with them what I wanted but they can never seem to get it right. Instead they default to a generic taper short off the sides and medium top cut, but then why tell me you can do the cut or even have experience with it? Is it my head shape? Face? Am I too ugly? Communicate that to me before you decide to just ignore the conversation we had and just free style. It's frustrating because I am growing out my hair for this cut and they do what they want. I don't want to be rude and stop you mid cut but then why am I paying so much just to be left unsatisfied? Most of the men leaving the place have the same exact cut. Anything longer than a short to medium cut is a no go, those cuts look clean and nice. Kept going in with shoulder length wavy hair just to get butchered every time.

    Very old school barber shop. I got a shave and a haircut from Jerry and it was very well done…read more Nothing fancy here, but everything Jerry did was thorough and expertly done. I did call in advance to make sure he had time, he asked if I could stop by in 30 minutes, which was no problem. I was able to walk right in and get my shave and haircut.

    I just saw a Times article about all the hipster barbershops opening up in Manhattan and was…read moreappalled by what I read. One jackass who charges $100 for a haircut talked about how a real barber (such as himself of course) only does 4 haircuts an hour. Really 4 haircuts an hour? That's 15 minutes each, which after getting in and out of the chair and prepping and combing equals about 10 minutes. You might as well go to supercuts to get that sort of crap haircut. Which brings me to Jerry's! If you are in the city and want to spend 1/3 of what some hipster doofus barber will charge you then check out Jerry's! I used to go to Jerry's consistently when I first started working in midtown but started going to a place in jersey near where I lived at the time, though I still pop over once in a while. If you are in midtown and want a good haircut, this is the place (great if you work in midtown and the boss is giving you crap about your shaggy hair). Mostly older barbers who can do a variety of styles (though I doubt they do shaggy hipster/bieber cuts).They give a very thorough, careful haircut. Usually lasts at least 25 minutes, since they actually take their time and go over it more than once to make sure it is perfect. It is pricey around $30ish I believe, but hey, its in midtown. And of course they use a straight razor, and less importantly but still really cool, they have an ancient hand cranked hot towel machine! P.S. Its very difficult to find (buried in the basement) so ask for directions at one of the rock center info desks located at each entrance.
