Go see Johnny and the TEAM at ART OF BLADES! The attention to detail here is second to none, you can really tell they take pride in their craft. Every time I visit, I walk out with a flawless haircut. They also offer great extras like a hot towel finish and beard trims, which take the experience to the next level. The vibe is professional but relaxed, and the conversation is always on point. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fresh cut, quality service, and an all-around top-notch barbershop experience. The prices are more than fair for what you get. Definitely my go-to spot!

I switched to this shop after a friend recommended it, and it’s been a great move. Kevin is my go-to now — he’s friendly, professional, and consistently gives great haircuts. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for a new barber.

If you’re looking for more than just a haircut — if you’re chasing art, precision, and serious craftsmanship — stop scrolling and book an appointment with Johnny Escobar at the art of Blade Barbershop. This man isn’t just a barber, he’s an artist with clippers, a sculptor of fades, and a master of clean lines. Every cut is personalized, every detail considered, and the result? Straight fire, every time. Johnny doesn’t just give you a haircut — he gives you confidence. You walk in looking alright, and you walk out feeling like a million bucks. His fades are seamless, his beard work is immaculate, and his attention to symmetry and style is unreal. You can tell this is someone who lives for the craft — and it shows. The energy at the art of Blade Barbershop reflects his vibe: cool, creative, professional. Whether you’re going for a clean business look or something more modern and bold, Johnny has the vision and the skill to make it happen. 10/10. Highly recommend. Don’t sleep on this guy — Johnny Escobar is the real deal

Johnny is an excellent barber and a better person. I was between barbers, tried Art of Blades for the first time, and now won’t go to another shop! Awesome cut, real precision and care for his customers. I asked for what I thought was a complicated change to my usual haircut and Johnny handled it with ease. Exactly what I wanted. Great shop 10/10 recommend.

I’ve been coming to Johnny since 2019 and never have I left unsatisfied. I take my hair decently important for a guy and Johnny always shows care to try his best to give you what you want and also offer his professional help. He’s a good guy also funny good vibes all around. Even few times I’ve been late he still takes the time to get you right. Definitely the best barber/barber shop in a large radius in my opinion.

Johnny, Kevin and Khalik give the best cuts around. They create a welcoming atmosphere in the building and treat customers with respect. They do a great job and I will be getting cut by Johnny even if he moves locations. He is THAT good. Haircut, beard trim, etc. they’ll provide excellent service with everything they offer.

I’ve been going to this barbershop for years with my whole family—my husband and kids included—and we absolutely love it! The barbers are skilled, friendly, and always make us feel welcome. The quality of the haircuts is consistently excellent, and they take the time to ensure everyone leaves happy. The atmosphere is great, and the service is top-notch. We wouldn’t go anywhere else! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and professional barbershop!

I happened to be in Boston and needed a last-minute haircut. Johnny was able to accommodate me last-minute and took care of me really well. He made sure of the small details and made sure I left his shop looking perfect. Booking online really made it easy and convenient. I appreciate his effort, and everyone should give his services a try.

I can't say enough great things about this barbershop! Johnny gave my teenage son the perfect haircut—exactly what he wanted, which can be hard to get right these days. His attention to detail and skill are top-notch. On top of that, Johnny is friendly, easy to talk to, and made sure we were completely happy with the result. The shop itself has a cool, welcoming vibe, creating the perfect atmosphere for a barbershop. My son leaves beaming every time, and I’ve already recommended this place to friends and family. If you’re looking for a high-quality haircut in a great environment with talented barbers, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
