Reviews of Big Russ Barber Shop (Barber Shop)

See Eric in the first chair right in front of the window. He does exactly what you request but also advises. His sense of humor is also a plus. I take my 82-years old dad here just to see Eric because he is skilled at meeting my dad's need for a consistently single classic cut. Eric is old enough to respect tradition and young enough to deliver on current cuts! It's a great combination in a barber!

Eric is very welcoming and with me being from Texas and having a BIG phobia of going to barbershops.Having a good positive professional welcoming atmosphere is a MUST ,I travel all the way from Co-op City in the Bronx to Harlem because Eric is just that good of a barber.

Don't ever go into the shop. The barber I had not only cut my neck not once not twice but three times. He dropped his comb on the floor picked it up and continued to use it. He then went to add an attachment to his clippers and open his equipment drawer that looked like a garage catch all drawer with everything in it filthy and broken. I had had it I stood up and announced we're done and looked so surprised. There was literally nothing in the shop to sanitize Combs. As I was getting my things to leave he announced that I owed him 22 dollars. I was alone in the shop other then a friend of his I just paid him and left. I got two blocks up 125th Street when a woman ran up to me to let me know I had blood running down my neck. Trust me the place is not worth getting hurt over just keep walking.

I come to Big Russ twice a month to get my haircut and to get my son's haircut. Eric, whose chair is right by the door is professional, friendly and a master barber. I love him and my son adores him. I recommend Eric to anyone.

Too expensive.

It's better to go down in a plane crash than to have your haircut at this establishment. I was cut not one but three times by the clippers the barber was using when he dropped the comb he was using he just picked it off the floor and continued to use it. See a comb sterilizing container anywhere in the place. And when he opened up his drawer in his station to look for an attachment for the Clippers it look like a junk drawer in a garage I was mortified I left there with a hacked up haircut cut on my neck that were so obvious when I was walking down the street a complete stranger asked me if I was okay because blood was dripping from the back of my neck. In for my trouble and pain he has the nerve to charge me $22 bucks. If you have any concern for your personal safety I would implore you to never go to this establishment.

This is a very clean, comfortable barber shop. I take my 7-year-old autistic son every week. Eric does a great job of making him feel comfortable & he even sits for intricate designs. It's a great location; parking is ok. Eric is usually there very early every day, so that's nice too. Highly recommend!

The Guy in the front on the right seemed friendly and understood what I needed as he was informed I was going on vacation and haven’t had a haircut in months. He appeared to be the manager or owner. He directed to an older dude seated in the middle, who I was already skeptical of. Considering it was my first time I took a chance, long story short he was RUDE, had no patience for what I asked for and he CUT MY DREAD! If you do utilize this place i would consider using the younger guys as they’re understanding of trendy haircuts
