Steve came highly recommended. I needed a change, I was feeling quite unattractive honestly. His reputation is honorable, he is well liked and loved and is regarded high in his skills level. His shop is impeccable, a perfect reflection of his soul, open, inviting and eclectic, as beautiful as he is. Walking in, I can see a glow of satisfaction in his client's face, all smiles, as he offered him techniques on how to keep his mane lustrous. It was my turn. Steve is most definitely a master alchemist, he has a trained eye to seek and bring out your unique inner beauty with thoughtfulness and precision, transforming your look into to one that reflects the true gloriousness of who you are. I came out feeling beautiful again, looking forward to playing and styling my tresses, and moving forward confidently, happily. Thank you Steve, I look forward to my next visit. read more

Heard good things--wish I could try them. They seemed to do good business, but when I came at 1 pm on a Sunday, they were closed without a not on the door. A door that states they're open from 11 am to 4 pm on Sundays. I maybor may not risk wasring my precious weekend time again. read more

We found Spesh by accident. My daughter had an appointment nearby and as we walked to go get dinner, we passed by and I decided to see if they could fit me in for a cut. Sarai helped me and I am so more than ecstatic about how she fixed my hair, and then she fit in my daughter as well. So happy with the results and will definitely be back. Already have a color consult set up with GiGi in April. I think we found our new home for our hair. read more

I'm so glad I found this place. I had such a hard time finding the hairdresser who would know how to cut wavy hair. Steven (the owner) got right away what I was aiming for. He did such a great job! My hair got its wavy shape back, and I'm loving it! The place itself is very cool, it has a bit of a Brooklyn/Williamsburg vibe. The stuff is very friendly and professional. Highly recommend! read more

So I decided to grow my hair long because of being home and not having to go to my corporate office every day anymore. Before growing my hair long, I would get my cut every two weeks the usually fade and shape up. Now the problem is finding a guy I trust to cut my hair and where to even begin. I was referred to Steven from a very good friend of mine and he highly recommended Spesh Salon. He told me to go online and set up an appointment which was very easy. I met with Steven Torres the Salon owner, super friendly and we talk about life and things before even getting a cut, which made me feel very comfortable. He then asked me about my hair and I told him what i wanted and what he recommended. Probably one of the best haircuts I have ever got. I loved it, it was exactly what my wife wanted and she loved it! Can't wait for my next cut. I takes a lot for me to write a review. That is how happy I am with my hair. Thanks to Steven and his staff at Spesh Salon. read more

Won't go anywhere else!!! Steven is amazing and always seems to know exactly what you need. We just cut off around 9 inches and my hair looks so beautiful, and came out better than I had even hoped for. If you are looking to get a great cut somewhere you feel like an instant friend, go to Spesh, not even a question! Thank you Steven read more

I noticed Yelp put my review in the "not recommended" category - i retired from yelping after like 7 years of having that little elite badge next to my name (which doesn't actually mean anything) and they kick me to the curb. anyway, just want to update my review. Steve is a Legend. read more

I REALLY wanted to like this place based on the reviews. Didn't have a great experience. I had a barber already in Hoboken that had no availability and thought I'd try someone else. Although I loved the layout and energy of the inside of the business, the haircut experience was sub-par. I'm a talker and one reason why I enjoy my go to barber is because we share some great conversation during the haircut. I did not have that experience here. Whenever I tried to engage in conversation it wasn't reciprocated. Although the barber seemed friendly... 1) there was no conversation. I tried talking but ended up basically talking to myself 2) fade was not on point. 3) haircut seemed incredibly rushed 4) made the haircut appointment the night before and selected a regular haircut with a wash included but that wasn't even offered. Wish this place the best of luck but they have some things to improve on which stinks because I do wanted to like this place more read more

Love Spesh! Everyone is super friendly and the pricing is very affordable for Hoboken. I had a great blowout here. Haven't gotten a cut yet, but my boyfriend comes here and he loves it. Would definitely recommend! read more

Cynthia is a true pro. Always gracious and knows her stuff. I take her style suggestions every time and get complimented almost as soon as I walk out the door. They also have great products like "fatboy perfect putty" and play only the coolest tunes. read more

Spesh is the perfect place . Cool staff , nice vibe and Paula cuts it exactly as you request . They get it !

Really chill spot for a really awesome haircut! Steve makes you feel very comfortable expressing exactly how you want your hair cut. You can feel his passion from the moment you walk in until the moment you walk out. It's impossible to leave there without a smile on your face ! The late hours are what attracted me, but the service is what will bring me back ! read more

I've visited several other salons in Hoboken and Spesh is by far the best for service and professionalism. This was my first time visiting the salon, Elvis was my stylist and he was EXCELLENT. Highly recommend checking them out, already booked my second appointment. read more

Steven and Paula literally are killing the game. Been living in Hoboken for way too long and these guys always deliver a quality cut. Pro Tip: Mention the password when booking to receive the extra special Spesh read more

Steve's the best. Been cutting my hair for years. Good convo. Good style suggestions. At this point I give him free reign to do what he wants. read more

Spesh is a new modern haircut place that just opened in Hoboken. I got my cut with Paula and she was great! I loved the way my hair looked and will definitely be coming back soon. I also love that you can book appointments via app. Makes life super easy. There are also tons of parking in the area. Pro tip- tip is cash only so don't forget to have cash! Also parking outside is 25 cents for 15 mins read more

I've been in Hoboken for 6 years now, and have bounced around between the many barber shop options that the city has to offer, never really satisfied with the results. I genuinely enjoy getting my hair cut, so it was important for me to find the right fit. For the past year that I've been going to Spesh, this was finally accomplished for me tenfold. Not only do I enjoy it, but I look forward to getting my haircut each time. The space itself is bright and inviting, and the entire team at Spesh is friendly, professional, and at the top of their game. I go to Steve every time and he is a rockstar, but would trust any of the members of the team. This place is a gem and has been a great addition to the neighborhood! read more

Cynthia is simply incredible!  I never understood what a "good" haircut was until now.  To give you an idea of my hair, it grows in different directions in multiple spots, and as my hair grows longer, it becomes wavyer.  Pretty tough to manage! However, Cynthia masterfully cuts and styles my hair with ease, paying attention to every detail and strand.  She is a master of her craft and I can't go anywhere else now. read more

It took me forever to find a hairstylist who was good with scissors and a buzzer, but luckily I came across SPESH nestled right in the heart of Hoboken. Everyone at the salon is super friendly and welcoming, from the receptionist to all the stylists. After my first hair cut here last year I never looked back at my old barber. I get a great haircut every time and not once have had to wait! I highly recommend SPESH to anyone who is looking for a great haircut. read more

I have been here several times and gotten haircuts and beard trims from both Paula and Stephen. Service and care are paramount. I have been extremely happy every visit I have had here and I highly recommend checking them out. They are a really nice blend of salon and barbershop so the vibe is super comfortable and laid back. Well worth your time and money. read more

Best hair cut ever if you're in Hoboken go see Steven. I got a coffee, a hAir cut & was a model

Love Spesh. Their music, atmosphere, and barbers/stylists are great!

Unfortunately after 2 years I will have to stop going here. The "menu" changed and now a basic men's cut has gone up almost 40% to $55 for a cut/wash. I just can't justify spending that much for a quick cut. read more

Solid neighborhood spot for a clip. The people who work here are nice, and I've always gotten a good cut. I've been here a couple of times where one of the patrons was wearing bellbottoms, and it gave it a very 70's vibe. It may have been John Travolta. Not sure if I should add or remove a star for that so we'll keep it neutral. read more

Tyler is great! I never leave reviews on Yelp, but both times I've gotten my haircut by him I've left with such good cuts that I feel like I have to! I generally hate getting my hair cut because I don't love small talk but he's super laid-back and comfortable, so that PLUS the great job he does with my hair makes for an unbeatable experience. I plan on going to him as long as I'm in Hoboken. Really can't recommend enough. I should also mention the two times I went I wanted totally different style cuts and both times he did exactly what I was looking for, so as far as men's cuts go, he's really excellent. read more

Love this place! Super welcoming atmosphere with top notch stylists that don't take themselves too seriously.

Awesome experience here for my son's first haircut. Elvis was so kind, patient, and gave my son a great haircut. We will definitely be returning! read more

I highly recommend Spesh barber shop, it's always good vibe when walking in. I personally use Paula who is awesome but they all look like they give great cuts. Deff hit up Spesh for trustworthy cuts. read more

The price for a haircut here has doubled in about 18 months. $60 for a men's haircut before tip is insane. I'll be going elsewhere. That being said - Steph is amazing read more

I've have visited Several hair spots. While some are ok, ok really doesn't cut it. I'm happy to have found this place (actually my wife told me about them, they're on IG) Anyhow Jean Paul was excellent. I felt comfortable with him immediately. I showed him a picture of what I wanted and he executed the job top notch. While he was friendly and talkative at times he was quiet because he really was concentrating and focused. It seems many haircutrers have like one trick but JP has chops. thanks! read more

Easily the best hair stylist in hoboken. If you want a good cut stop in for a Steven Spesh. Guy knows what he's doing.

Steve and his team are a welcome sight to this neighborhood... love the atmosphere and the cut. You can close all the other barber shops in Hoboken... this is the only one we need. Comfy chair, great music... and oh yeah... best haircut around. This is no hack job... just a good SPESH. read more

I really love coming here. I've been here twice now and I'm hooked. JP is awesome. I really feel relaxed there and he does an amazing job with my hair. The place is super clean and has a really chill local vibe. JP goes above and beyond with his cuts and washes. I get so relaxed I even dose off while he's cutting my hair! Ha! Great spot! Worth the trip from Jersey City. read more

Steven is such an amazing talent!! Whether you need a trim or complete re-do he will be sure you leave happy and looking your best. Place is comfortable, modern and clean. Highly recommend!! read more

Cynthia, Does anyone know where she went as she is not working at spesh anymore? Thanks read more

The atmosphere is fun and welcoming, and the hair cuts are always on point. Steven and his crew know their craft.

If you want a place with great atmosphere. Chill vibes. Young knowledgeable and trendy staff. Spesh is the right place for you. Dope haircuts second to none. This is a barbershop unlike any other. Great music, beautiful place, you are guaranteed to leave with a smile on your face and an amazing haircut. Worth every penny. read more

Was my first time today at Spesh. Had one of my best haircuts ! Felt refreshed and younger! Stephanie was awesome! I'm not going anywhere else read more

Steph is a great. Been going to her for sometime now and never a bad haircut. Mostly because she listens to what the customer asks for.

Finally able to take care of my hair after Covid! This spot is gorgeous, has good vibes, the owner is a doll and the pricing is very reasonable! Not only did I get a good cut but I had so much fun while there! Thank you Steven and the rest of the Spesh Staff! read more
