Are you sick of all those new metro sexual spots that claim to be barbers, but just don’t make the cut—so to speak? Well, we know barber shops frequented by well-groomed men are hard to come by; this one in particular is tucked away in Washington Heights—but worth the trip. Here, barbers and hairstylists give quality haircuts at prices the clients can live with ($15+). Workers often scurry to clean up the work area after the frill-free 10-minute haircuts, and this clean space with low-hassle cuts doesn’t pretend to be an overpriced salon—what you see is what you get. There is no need to call ahead; appointments are available by walk-in. Ladies, stake your spot out front to catch all those newly cut men walking out.
Insider Tip: Tell the stylists the exact measurements you are looking to cut off; they will listen.
