Cohen Barber Shop — Local services in New York

Wow you guys are absolutely awful. As someone who travels quite a lot, I’ve had haircuts from many incredible barbers and of course some pretty bad barbers along the way.

You guys I’ve got to say, take it to another level in how poor you do your haircuts. The level of dedication you have in giving such bad haircuts is incredible. Simple fade haircuts, I’ve never come across such a lazy barber before who cannot even be bothered to do a fade and will cut straight up into the crown. When that happens, you know that’s not good, that’s beyond awful.

I mean come on, your supposed to be professionals. It doesn’t take a genius to work out that by cutting into the crown, the chunk of hair your going to leave missing from the customer. What’s even more stunning is your ability to hide bad haircuts I’ve got to give it to you there. Some stunning work with the hair product to cover your unprofessional cuts and sheer laziness. It not only leaves the customer thinking they’ve got an alright haircut only to return home and see what you’ve done. You guys are simply no match for the competition in how bad you do your haircuts.

This was all from simply watching you in how you guys do your cuts on fellow customers. Reluctantly, I thought I’d take the chair with another one of your esteemed barbers to see how mine would go. Low and behold, it’s a similar story. Not as bad as the customers I witnessed you single handedly demolish their hair and that was only down to me telling the barber constantly to stop going so high up with the cut on the side. He clearly did not have a clue how to perform a blend either and so was looking to do the same and go high up to the crown with the cut. Following that, the amount of length you take off from the top, despite saying a little is far from it, especially the back part of the hair you take so much off it’s too late to have even said anything. I don’t expect to have to constantly teach a barber how to cut hair during my own hair cut.

I was far from impressed with the way you guys handled your cuts and as much as you have a laugh with the customers, you don’t pay enough attention to the haircut. I would advise focusing on the haircut for those unable to multitask. I also suggest all your barbers take courses in learning how to blend and fades. Your going to lose more and more customers when you start with a square shaped sized haircut and finish with peanut shaped sized haircut at the back. It’s not good I don’t know what more advice I can give you guys. By not knowing how to perform such simple cuts, your barbers are resorting to laziness and it’s resulting in your customers including myself, finishing their haircut with a poor blend, chunks of hair completely razored away and even the shape of back changing.

Your in a wonderful location with so much footfall. Don’t be lazy, don’t be unprofessional and take some courses so you can learn how to master techniques in levelling up in...

Don't follow instructions, practically face to face cutting your hair with horrible wake the dead bad breath, they'll say wait 10min, you'll be waiting over 30min (STANDING UP) Cause there buddies will take up the seating playing on their mobiles and not even a customer just chilling. Not to mention they will drag your cut for almost an hour just so can justify OVER CHARGING you. Great deal if your a tourist, must think everyone is a tourist so it's OK to OVERCHARGE. If you work in the area and think you'll get a quick cut at reasonable price during your lunch break. Think again. GREED IS STRONG...

I read the reviews online and thought I might get a decent cut before work but the haircut was terrible. I showed the older guy with gray hair a picture of a blended skin fade and I told him not to make the fade too high. This was probably one of the worst haircuts I’ve gotten cause the fade was sloppy and my hair is sticking out towards the sides where he was supposed to blend it. He even shushed me while I was trying to tell him something about how I wanted it. Not sure how the other barbers are but I definitely won’t be coming back...
