Couldn't wait to post this review. Throughout the buzz, I kept thinking this was the end, but Cesar kept going to ensure his meticulous work would be complete. I usually buzz my own head, but while visiting NYC, decided to treat myself to a shave. I was not disappointed. Two hot towel and one cold towel treatments. Head and shoulder massage. Such a smooth job. While in the chair, I was calculating how expensive it would be for me to fly back for Cesar's service. You live in the city....no brainier.
Owner's response
Mark, we love this review! It’s awesome to hear that Cesar's meticulous approach to your head shave and the hot towel treatments made such a lasting impression. That next-level service—from the razor cut to the shoulder massage—is what we aim for at Manhattan Barber Shop NYC in Chelsea. Thanks for visiting while you were in NYC. If you ever do fly back, we'll be here waiting!

Got a cut with Cesar, he was incredibly deliberate and detail-oriented, clearly a true professional who takes pride in his work. Took his time to make sure everything was just right. One of the best cuts I’ve had in a while. Heads up, it’s cash tips only

Worst Haircut I have Ever Received First, I want to acknowledge that this may be partially my fault. This place gets good reviews, and at least from a visual inspection, and based on what I could hear from the customers, there is a good atmosphere and rapport between Barbers and customers. It may be partially my fault because I walked in without knowing the place, and without an appointment. I asked if they accepted walk-ins. They said yes, I could get a haircut from a certain barber, and they asked me to wait for him. The place got great reviews, it seemed like a good place, so I thought I was good. When my turn came, I sat down for my haircut and as I always do, I looked for a photo I keep on my phone of a bad haircut (photo with light background attached to this review.) I explained to the Barber that I wanted to make sure that I didn't end up with the divots, or holes, on either side of my head that barbers have given me before. Again, I showed him that photo. I asked him to give me a haircut with #2 clippers at the bottom and blend up to #4 clippers near the top. And I said that my hair should have a low blend to make sure that those two holes are avoided. Here's another place where it may be partially my fault. He told me I should use the barber next to me instead of him. But she said to him "No, I have too many appointments." Then my Barber said, "I'm sorry, I don't speak English very well, but I know how to give a haircut." That should have been my cue to get up, say thank you very much, and look for another Barber Shop. But in the moment, I didn't want to be dramatic. And the guy seemed nice. At first, the haircut seemed to be going well. But as he progressed, he started going more and more nuts with the clippers, obviously ignoring or misunderstanding my request to use #4 at the top, and not seeming to know how to do a low blend. Sure enough, I end up with a big divot in my hair. It's not so bad on one side, but drastic on the other. And both sides are clearly way too short near the top, with no blend with the hair on top. Exactly the same problem I've had so many times before. Why is this concept so hard for so many Barbers to understand? With him, it may be that he literally couldn't understand me, but still, it's a common problem at many barbershops. And shouldn't it be he case that when you ask for a regular haircut you don't end up with divots on your head? Shouldn't that be automatically avoided without explanation? I really hesitated to write this bad review. Again, partially because I should have known. Also because my Barber was a nice guy who is perhaps just learning the trade. I don't know. But I feel like people should know: Only use this place if you know the Barbers and know what work they do. I got stuck with somebody who seems to be something like an apprentice, and I ended up with a disastrous haircut. Okay, maybe "disastrous" is too strong a word, because my profession and life don't depend on physical appearance. But since I explained so clearly what I wanted, I feel like a Barbershop charging $45 (not the most expensive Barber for sure, but you can certainly get a better, cheaper haircut in Manhattan) should be able to fulfill a relatively simple, straightforward request. And if an otherwise professional place is giving a beginner a chance, the person should probably be better monitored.
