Fifth Ave Barber Shop — Local services in New York

My last review from was 2012, and the one I'm giving now has not changed one bit. I've been going to this Barber Shop since the day Steve opened up. It's by far, hands down, the best cut I have ever gotten and with a great price of $16; it is a no-brainer! I work down in the Financial District and commuted back to Long Island every day and would still make it a point to go for a cut here at least once a month (would even come all the way in to NYC from LI on the weekends to get a cut). Now that I'm living in NYC, it's even easier, especially being so conveniently located by Herald Square, with the convergence of multiple Subway lines. The couple times I came by for a haircut when Steve wasn't there, I let his other Barbers take care of me, and they're on point as well. It's an all-around great Barber Shop, and I'd recommend this to every guy that is looking for a truly sharp cut, and for the best price you're going to...

TL;DR Try a haircut (seemed ok from what I saw of others) but pass on the shave unless you like your face getting cut a bunch.

I want to preface that I came in here for a shave, so take what I say with a grain of salt as I imagine that they are better at cutting hair.

Initially I felt the shave was going well and that I was basically being treated to a luxury I normally wouldn't indulge in; honestly the price was a tad high but I didn't care as I just wanted to treat myself. Immediately after I stepped outside I felt the cold wind rip at the innumerable cuts that were left on my face from the shave.

I know every now and then I might cut myself shaving but I've never cut myself that many times (over a dozen distinct cuts). I'm probably not going to return here, mainly because I'm not from the area, but also from...

This was my first and will be my last time here. The guy who cut my hair was fine. I have a shaved head and just had my weekly maintenance cut of a number zero all over. The guy who took my money wanted to charge me $20 when it clearly says $16 for regular cut. He pointed to the $20 on the price list - when I pointed out to him that $20 was price for long hair he just acted dumb like he couldnt speak english. I then tried to use the $2 off coupon on their website for first time customers. He refused it saying it was only for the long hair price - bullcr@p !!! It's a shame as this looks like a nice place and is actually reasonably priced but there are plenty of other good barbers in midtown and i dont't need to come to a place where they try to rip of...
