I got exactly what I asked for. He did it only with scissors. Alex was great and made a fun conversation.

Great service very professional. This is my goto place for my self and my son. Team is gracious and does a great job.

They have been cutting my hair for decades. I love this place! Kind, personable people and of course a great cut. I wouldn't go anywhere else. One of the few quality businesses left in my neighborhood. read more

Just moved to the UWS side, found this barber shop around the corner. great people, great haircuts, what more do you need.

I had been looking for a decent barber in my area and found this one. Albert was great. Understood what I want and I love the results. Glad I found a barber I can stick with read more

Alexander did a fine job of a machine shave and hair trim. I will return again in the future.

One of my barbers since grad school, I come here periodically to catch up and see what is going on around the Upper West Side. They always give me a great hair style and are very professional. read more

Took my son here and he got the best haircut. The barber was professional and very attentive.

I cannot speak highly enough Alex who I believe is the owner. He does such an excellent job cutting my hair and trimming my beard to just the right length that I will not let anyone near my beard They are also extremely accommodating and friendly read more

Diana looked at a photo I brought in and gave me basically exactly what I wanted in about 20 minutes. Standard men's cut with razor and scissors, $25. The shop was spacious and conveniently located. I've been to lots of cheap barber shops on the Upper West Side--basically whatever's nearest to my errands--and it's always a pleasant surprise when they do a good job, like Diana at Solomon did. read more

This is a wonderful place for a quick, great haircut at the perfect price. Diana is my go to and she does a stellar job every time. She is very kind, fun to talk to, and does a really good job even when there are a lot of other people waiting in line. I would definitely suggest her! The barber shop also has plenty of TVs and is usually playing something entertaining from Netflix, and if you really want to, you can request that they put on a certain Netflix show to keep you entertained while you're waiting in line or getting your hair cut. It isn't the fanciest place in the world, but they provide great service at a great price and I am much happier going here than a fancier salon that charges three times the price. read more

Nice cut for affordable prices, I have been going there over the last 6 years and I will continue to come her for many years. Very recommended read more

This place is quick and gives you a great haircut exactly how you ask! Diana has been great every time I've come in always knowing what's best for the style I've asked for. It's very well priced and you get quality every time. If there's a wait it's because you know people are willing to wait for a good job. Bad reviews seem like people got exactly the haircut they asked for not knowing what it would look like beforehand. I've had nothing but professional and good experiences. read more

Really great barbershop. I had my husband make an appointment with Solomon, he's a really funny guy gave my husband a really clean haircut and really good product that actually keeps my hair how he likes it. Played really great music. read more

Great place for a haircut and a shave. The staff is very friendly and they do a very good job. Nothing better than a haircut and a straight edge razor shave. It is very relaxing and I go every six weeks. Feels great to lay back and get a great shave that actually lasts a long time. Keep it it brothers! read more

Quick, easy, in and out. I started growing my beard these last two months as my wife and I readied to move back to NYC. Popped in here to tame my overgrown beard and was helped by Albert. I wasn't in the chair more than 10 minutes and got exactly what I hope for, even though I couldn't tell him exactly what I wanted. Will definitely be back here for future trims! read more

This place has been in the neighborhood for the last 15+ years. I always go to Albert, he's THE BEST! Haircuts are always precise and consistent and everyone is always very friendly. It's also reasonably priced, easily the best small barber in this neighborhood. read more

Wow! This place is great! I grew up in New Jersey, and the same guy cut my hair for over fifteen years. I was extremely scared about letting anyone else cut it, as I love my hair a lot, but I needed a haircut, and my friend recommended it, so I decided to get one at Solomon's Barber Shop; I am so happy I did! I have gone back for two haircuts since my first one; I believe three or four people work at Solomon's Barber Shop. The skinny blonde girl does an excellent job; I was in her chair for 30-40 minutes, so she really takes her time with her work. It really showed; she gave me the best haircut I have ever had in my life! I was so happy with her that I gave her a five dollar tip! The kicker is that it only cost me twelve dollars; I did not know that I could have taken advantage of the three dollar discount on Yelp, but print the coupon on this page out, and take advantage of it! The guy who seems to run the shop gave me a haircut today, and it was an alright haircut, but I was not extremely happy with it. I walked out of the store thinking it would be okay in a few days, but I decided to go back later at night to have my bangs trimmed some more. The same guy who seems to run the shop took care of me right away, and I tried to pay him for the second job, but he refused to accept it! My hair looks perfect now! Tremendous place, and the television is always on, in case you need something to hear, or watch! Give Solomon's Barber Shop a try; you will not regret it! :D P.S. Let your barber wash your hair before he/she cuts it; it feels great, as if you were getting a professional massage, and it only costs three dollars! read more

Got my hair cut by Diana. Worst cut I've ever received. I asked her to keep it long but instead she immediately chopped almost all of it off and gave me whatever haircut she felt like, repeating "it's good" the entire time. If you come here, remind them to sterilize items between cuts since when I was there she didn't do it by default. read more

I haven't been here in a while, but had decent experiences in the past. My regular barber was out of town, so I figured it was safe to return. BIG MISTAKE! I really should have headed the advice of a recent review warning of "The Butcher." I guess her name is Diana, and I wish I realized this when she sat me down. She proceeded to give me the WORST haircut I've ever had. She clearly has no certification or actual experience. She has the skills of a drunk child with safety scissors. After I stopped her because my head looked like it had been through a wood chipper, she kept saying "no, it's good. it's good." It was so bad, I made her stop midway and walked out to another barber who was able to fix the mangled disaster that was my hair. I'm not saying these guys are bad, but if you walk in and this lady tries to cut your hair, run. Run for your life. read more

I have found my new barbershop. The haircut was quick and perfect, Alex is a great dude, and the cost was totally reasonable. Can't imagine needing to find another barber anytime soon. read more

Great place to get a cut. Albert does a good job, the guys are friendly and this has a good barber shop vibe. Albert does color too and after working with your to get the right color it is great. Good cut for the right price. Definitely recommend. read more

Visited Solomon's for the first time a few days ago. Albert cut my hair and did a great job. All I did was show him a picture! It usually it takes me a while to find a trustworthy barber after moving to a new place but it looks like I've found my spot. Only downside I can think of is that it's walk-ins only so no appointments can be made. read more

Great place. Good personalities. They listen to what you want for a haircut and they do it. I have been here three times, and I have not been disappointed. Friendly, professional, courteous. Definitely a must recommend. read more

I have thick, curly, frizzy and unruly hair. Popped in (figured it couldn't be any worse than what I have had in the past). Albert took one look at me and said let's wash it first. Totally agreed. What a massage my head got. He is terrific! More importantly, it is ALL even! (I've been to Devachan, Kenneth's, Eva's, Dramatics...none were able to accomplish what Albert did at a fraction of the cost! $25.00!.) Other salons charge me extra because of all of my hair. Cuts usually costed me $135.00. I am saving so much that I am able to cut it more frequently. Albert-THANK YOU! read more

Great cut. Excellent price. Very quick. Alex is an excellent barber. Highly recommended.

Excellent haircut and razor shave. Transformed from looking like a old homeless man to a distinguished one! Good conversation as well. Highly recommended. Very reasonable prices as well. Ask for the senior discount. read more

Great haircut, consistent quality and always get fast reliable service. They always make sure I leave a satisfied customer

Worst haircuts ever! I took one of my sons a year ago, and the barber moved in slow motion despite working on a 3-year old boy. Despite me actually physically showing him how much to cut off, and insisting I didn't want his hair cut short, the barber lopped off way to much. It's like he intentionally sabotaged the haircut. He was more then halfway through the haircut when it occurred to him to offer to play the kiddie movies he had on hand. Duh... This year year, in desperation, I returned with my other son. This boy has a more docile temperament and a different texture hair -- and the same barber screwed it up again! After it had grown out a bit I took him to a kiddie salon and the stylist said it will take 2 haircuts (6 months) to get the the hairstyle back to normal. Technically horrible haircut: huge chunks of hair hacked at, and completely uneven. I almost took pics it was so bad. Couldn't pay me to subject my kids to a Soloman's cut again... read more

Quick, convenient, straight forward. Diana does excellent work. Perfect neighborhood barber shop.

I agree. Highly professional, friendly, efficient, they know what they're doing, and they make a **** good fist of it. I have used all three of them, and I can't pick a favourite because they are all so good. I agree with the other reviews that they pay attention to what I ask for, and then make suggestions to get it just right. I like that, from one visit to the next, they remember my last visit and request, and are able to incorporate what I asked for and what we did then. And I particularly like that all three of them usually remember what each other did last time - they are really paying attention to their customers. More of this for me, you betcha. read more

Dayna or Diana or something like that has been phenomenal. She listens and she's friendly and she just makes you look like a stud. Great haircut. I've gone back 5 times so far. read more

This is by far the BEST barber shop ever. I brought my 3 yr old son for a haircut and I was completely satisfied. Every other barber shop I have been to cut my sons hair to short and didnt listen to what I said. The 2 workers are so friendly and patient with children. They performed the haircut exactly as I wanted it. I will definetly be coming back, and I reccomend this barbershop to everyone, especially those with little kids. read more

Had to find a new barber since UWS barbers have an awful barber in their rotation. This place is great!

Fantastic barber! I finally found a place that does a great job and won't over charge you. This is a man's barber, they pay attention to detail and make sure it's right (great bec I'm new to the area). Gone 5+ times and perfect every time. read more

Excellent cut. Combined a trendy modern cut with a classic feel quite seamlessly. Diana was great!

Everything you could want in a haircut! Diana cut my hair just as I asked, she did it quickly, and it came out amazingly. I definitely recommend her to anyone who wants an amazing haircut. read more

Went in on a fairly busy Sunday afternoon and had a very positive experience. I was expecting to wait a while, but it took the three barbers there no time at all to get around to me. The guy who cut my hair was very good about making sure we were on the same page and he worked very quickly. I was in and out in no time and very pleased with my haircut! read more

Good old school barber shop. Have been here a couple of times now and they did a nice job both times.

The barber was friendly and he gave me a nice haircut. They cut it the way you want it and check if your ok with it from time to time. Closed Saturdays. read more
