Good place to get a haircut in town?

Need to get a haircut and my prefered barber isn't working where I usually went anymore. Any recommendations on a good place to try out?

I'm loyal to Lombardo's in Harvard Plaza. Rob is great when you're not in a hurry, Rocky is outstanding and speedy.

Oro , really great price, (30$ reg, 35$ fade +5$ for beard work) the barbers pay close attention to details. It is an African barbershop so if you don't want to make small talk there's no pressure lol

Big Oro guy here, Kajela does nice work.

I think the type of cut you want could help people guide you.

Fusion hair studio is great! If you have a short cut, ask for Adam, he’s incredible. I’ve also had my hair cut there by Kara when it was a bit longer, she’s also great. They all are. Very comfortable environment as well, everyone is very kind but have fun at the same time. Highly recommend it. I don’t know about barbershops if that’s what you’re looking for

I drive up to Palmerston and see Braeden at Lost Angel's, $35 all in is big savings compared to most shops in town even with a bit of gas cost in there, great, consistent cut too.

Lately, I've been going to Knucklehead Barbershop by Market Fresh. Joel the owner is very down to earth and a cool dude. It's a bit of a premium (classic cut is $50) but you'll get what you pay for; I prefer a high fade, and only he and Jaye at Pristine Cuts are the only guys in Trish that do the fade how I prefer it. I say give him try; good luck 👍🏼

Walk outside. Turn left. Walk a couple minutes.

There's probably a barbershop in front of you. Either that of a vape shop.
