Turnpike Barber Shop

!!!! AVOID WALK INS !!! DO NOT EVER DO A WALK IN !!! I've had varied experience here, and I'd like to begin by complimenting Lori, the person who cut my hair in 2021-2022. I am a Albany student, and I greatly valued her fade skills and was always treated to a fantastic experience. Especially for a young man looking for a “fresh” or “fancy” fade. I came for a visit about 3 weeks ago (Lori was not in) this time my experience was awful. I was seen by a different barber, one whom I noticed had a problem communicating in fluent English, which may well have added to the communication problem we had. I had asked explicitly for a simple edge-up and taper for beard and mustache (Of course he did not know what a taper or edge up was), and I was willing to pay the full cost of a haircut for what I

I have always love the place for their price, they have kept their services as low as 15$ throughout the pandemic to 2024z. They only increased to 20$ recently, but it is still very reasonable for a haircut. However, the last time I’ve been, I got quite disappointed with my haircut, as my barber did quite a bad job for the back of my head. It was rugged, and was pointing out, resulted in me having to redo my own haircut. But overall, I would still recommend this place for a quick cut.

Friendly, quick, affordable. Cash only. Kid friendly.

College student by the way. Not too busy and had a very nice interactive conversation with the barber when I came in and got started right away. The barber was really nice and friendly, gave me a really good looking cut, and had me satisfied. 👍

Mike is awesome. Old school. Didn't wait long conversation was pleasant, clean smaller shop in a good location. I was pleased all around with no complaints. CASH only however there is an ATM machine inside. I recommend this spot especially if you appreciate that old school barber feel. No frills just good service and fair prices.
