Dana is the BEST with kids. She cuts my 2 year old son's hair and I will only go to her. She's so good with him and patient. He got a cut today and it was as usual awesome. I don't even tell her what to do she just knows :) read more

If you don't know one of the barbers, you can be there forever. I've walked out a few times as people who've walked in after me got taken first. Not a great business model. read more

Great cuts, but super long wait times - even on a Wednesday afternoon. They do a good job of mentally taking note of who comes in in what order, but as it was our first time we were so confused by the process. We wound up waiting close to an hour before it was my son's turn. The cut was excellent, though. Would definitely go again and try to find a more convenient time. Expect to waiiiiit. read more

Brian is unbelievable at what he does! He really takes his time to get everything about the cut/shave just right! He is a great conversationalist and even after just my first visit I felt like I had know him for years. The whole experience of getting my head "designed" was amazing and I will never let anyone else touch my hair with a pair of clippers! read more

Strong Island Styles - Amazing wook by Brian! - Barbers Near Me - Glen Cove, New York

Don't waste your time or be prepared to WAIT unless you are one of their bros. I've gone there in the past and sat waiting for almost an hour while people would walk in give their buddy a hug or fist bump and then they sit in the chair. It happened to me once before but I gave them the benefit of the doubt and went again. Well the same thing just happened. TERRIBLE SERVICE!! Stay away!! read more

Great experience! Brought my 20 month son in to "fix" a first haircut that my wife and I gave him. They were so caring and professional. Guido is the best!! Can't wait to bring my son back!! read more

Awesome experience and conversation with Brian - he's the best. An absolute pleasure and perfect styling. This is the exact type of place that can proudly represent Long Island. The culture and friendliness of everyone is super comforting, and the attention to detail and precision is unmatched. All the barbers were great to talk to while waiting as well. Really great!! read more

BEWARE PLACE IS TRASH probably the worst place I have ever went to they claim they are the best but I can tell you from personal experience they are the worst. they should rename it trash Island styles ! . I would of got a better hair cut at super cuts, if you care about your hair as much as I do DO NOT go there you will thank me. place is a rip off and Baber's are trash !!!! read more

My son loves getting his hair cut at Strong Island Styles. He loves getting a design when he can -- Matt is awesome and did this Golden State logo on his noggin. These guys are artists and take a lot of pride in their work. Also they give back to the community. My kid got his whole head shaved by a Strong Island Stylist at last year's St Baldrick's fundraiser in Glen Cove. I'm happy to support thIs local biz. ‍ read more

So I'm a Queens girl with thick, bushy hair. I've been buzzing it off since 2006. Sometimes I grow my hair and then it will get to a certain length and I want it off. When it's buzzed off, it stands out. I recently got a pixie cut but wanted it buzzed again. I went to Long Island to visit my boyfriend for a week. He lives in Glen Cove. The neighborhood appears diverse, no lacking in barbershops. However they have an antiquated mindset because I walked into about four of them and asked the price to buzz my head and there was shock on their face. Like okay lame, you clearly never buzzed a girl's head. I didn't get that response from Matt at Strong Island styles. He was so friendly, cool and a damn skilled barber for someone so young. We had a nice conversation while he my hair fell to the floor. Thank you, Matt and good luck in your barber career. read more

This place is NOT covid friendly. Most of the people in there are not wearing masks including the barbers. Comments were made by my barber about my appearance and lots of personal questions were asked that made me uncomfortable. During my haircut the barber removed my mask without asking and then refused to let me put it back on once he was finished with my side burns. Very unprofessional and crowded environment. They give good cuts but I'm taking my business elsewhere and recommend you do the same. read more

I went to Guido who is one of the top barbers in the place. they are very clean neat and Covid friendly. He gives me the best haircut ever. He takes his time, doesn't rush me, talks to me, make me feel like I'm home in the chair. The whole staff is very friendly Dana Brian Matt Guido. I highly recommend everyone go in there it's the best barbershop on Long Island. The price is not expensive at all and you get way better service than what you pay for. I go every week for my weekly haircut. I don't drive 45 mins for a haircut just for anyone. read more

Strong island styles is a truly amazing barber shop, each and every employee has a great personality. But more importantly enthusiastic about their professions. Brian and Matt over at Strong Island are my go to's. Brian the owner makes all his customers feel more like family than customers. This is what truly keeps me coming back along with the amazing fades and cuts that are perfect every time. Shout out to Brian, Matt, and all the employees at strong island, thanks for the amazing cuts and conversations with you all!!!! read more

The dude with his hat backwards cutting at the front chair should take his AirPod out so he can listen to what customers want, instead of ignoring what they ask to do a sh*tty job in under 5 minutes. read more

Great Barbershop! When you walk in you'll notice a huge crowd waiting to get their cuts, which is a great sign. All the barbers are very good, so you can literally get your cut from anyone and be satisfied. The only issues I have are not with the actual business or employees, one of them is location. Parking can be a challenge. And lastly they are not open on Sundays read more

Strong island is the only REAL men's barber shop that I know of on the North Shore of Nassau. Always a great cut! The fact that they take a little extra time at the end to straight razor all your edges really adds to them being the best. I've been a patron for 10 years and hope that I never have to find another barber ever again. There can be a wait sometimes but I think that just speaks to the quality cut you're gonna get! Thanks for 10 years of great cuts Bri!!! read more

Good quality haircuts Friendly staff Just think its a bit expensive but rather okay not to much 20$ read more

Finally, a barber that knows the new styles. Solid, solid cut. Nice and down to earth to boot. Try to stick with the top 4 or 5 barbers. Place is expanding fast, and the newer guys don't give a consistently good cut. Top 4 or 5 are up front in the place. read more

Brought my middle son in last night and it's the best haircut he is ever gotten. He is 3 and they were super nice to him. I will bring my other two in to get their haircut too. read more

HORRIBLE PLACE - DO NOT TAKE YOUR TODDLERS THERE & ESPECIALLY TO DEVON. We arrived & everyone seemed nice & attentive, they told us whoever of the 3 barbers are done first then my 3.5 year old son will be next......well that never happened people came in after us, got their haircuts & we were completely ignored. All they said was you will be next. There is no log or order its pretty chaotic. So fast forward 2.5 hours later they finally let us know that ANOTHER barber by the name of Devon will be cutting my sons hair instead but she needs to go eat something first & THEN she will be with us....we waited about another 15 minutes. My 3.5 year old son at this point is restless I mean considering he is a toddler they don't always stay still. So she begins to cut his hair (with scissors) & not even 5 minutes into the haircut I notice my son scratching his ear. We figured it was the hair falling & possibly tickling his ear until I notice blood on the back of his neck and Devon standing there with a paper towel holding his hear. I asked her what happened & mind you I was watching the whole time. She said oh its just a small cut. I see a lot of blood on the paper towel she is holding so I sais excuse me I need to see. Well when I pull of the already bloody paper towel she CUT A PIECE OF SKIN FROM HIS EAR OFF. It took everything I had to not create a scene but she had absolutely not words & the owner Brian seemed completely unfazed by the incompetency of his "barber". He never once asked for our number to follow up since I immediately called my sons doctor. Complete unprofessionalism, they make you wait hours & if it happened to my 3.5 yr old son it can happen to yours. Learn how to cut toddler hair & except that they are children and at that age they might not be still. The following week we took him to another place to fix THE MESS DEVON made and they were patient, polite & did an amazing job. I will not recommend Strong Island Styles to ANYONE & I will be posting this to various sites. Train your barbers better! read more

Strong Island Styles - My 3.5 yr old son had a piece of his ear cut off by DEVON. My review is posted - Barbers Near Me - Glen Cove, New York

If you want your hair cut by this place make an appointment for 3 to 4 months from now. This place is extremely busy for an ok haircut. Their attitude is appalling thinking they are the best in the land especially the girl with long hair that works there as if she was rewarding us as customers for cutting the customers hair. I have called and have gone to that place about 4 times with my 3 year old son at different times of the day weekdays and weekends. First they tell me that it is a 2 hour wait for a barbershop....they told me that 2 times the others were one hour. Needless to say it's going to be a month and my child still has not had his haircut. Until today I called to speak to the manager and he was too busy to speak to me to call back in 2 hrs. Thanks for nothing strong Island styles. read more

Brian did a great job. All of the chairs were busy but you were in and out in about 20 minutes depending on what you what want done. A definite 1st class operation read more

This place is good if you don't mind waiting 3 hours for a pony haircut;not being even shown the common courtesy of being told what your position in the queue for service is;the owner being involved in selectively serving customers who match his thought processes ,whatever that is. I don't consider them more important than a doctor's office.Too full of themselves.Adios. Don't waste your time.Go to another place and get your haircut.There are plenty of attitude free places in Long Island to get a haircut.Give me a break!!! read more

These guys are great - first met them when two of them volunteered at a fundraiser to shave heads for kids cancer research, then came in today for a clean-up. They do some really amazing designs, fancy stuff, if you're into that. Danny was super nice and chill, did a great job. And price is right too. I will definitely be back. Check them out. read more

Been coming here for years. Staff is great. Place is clean. Freshest cuts on the island!

Brian is a good dude. Very friendly and a skilled barber. Has a good staff of good barbers aswell.

Wasted 20$ for a man to take a buzzer to my hair and text on his phone for 5 minutes. Thought the front was ok so a left and realized my hairs was uneven and not buzzed in the back. read more

Hands down the best barbershop in Long Island. It's a very busy shop but well worth the wait. Obvious reasons as to why they are busy. Every barber in there is great and professional. Love these guys. Thanks for the amazing haircut. Definitely will be seeing you again!!! read more

What a great place.. I had been nervous for quite some time about getting my toddler a hair cut and this place came highly recommended.. I walked in and it just so happened that the owner Brian had availability. He not only did an amazing job w my sons haircut, but was extremely patient w him moving around and not sitting still AT ALL! GREAT haircut, GREAT people, GREAT atmosphere! We will for sure be back! read more

Finally a great barber shop in the North Shore. Can always count on a great cut. Great vibe too. For my last haircut I came back a few days later to get it cut shorter. Devon was more than happy to do it and she refused my tip! Quality people and team is what makes a great business. read more

They definitely do a great job and I was was happy with my haircut. I didn't really like that my back was toward the mirror the whole time. The barber said he couldn't work any other way. He stayed on one side of me and spun me around, instead of coming to the other side of me. I couldn't see what what going on for 99% of the time. I guess it's their style in there, but it was the first time that ever happened to me. read more

Best place ever. The owner is amazing, he's been cutting my son's hair since he was a baby and he has such patience. Everyone there is friendly and know what their doing. I would'nt change our barber for the world!! read more
