★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Zhiren Ye · Oct 2025

I can only echo what others have already said… decent haircut but very rude attitude that’s uncalled for. The first time I went to get a haircut, the long beard barber kept asking what trim number I want in a condescending manner. He was pushy and not trying to help at all. I try to be considerate and I still went to the barber shop a few times after that because I thought he might just be in a bad mood and I didn’t want to judge someone just for a one time experience . But it turns out that he’s just simply rude for no reason, EVERY TIME I visited he had the same condescending and rude attitude like I did something wrong. So even though the haircut was decent, I decided not to visit this barber shop anymore because the attitude is just horrible and unnecessary.

Great spot, Ahmed did an incredible job with a fade and has great conversations. Highly recommend uni barber Boston.

Decent haircut for an affordable price of 30 + 5 (tip). Better than what you get at most chain haircut spots, but keep in mind it’s only 30. Would be back and would recommend at the price point!

Guy with a long beard did not know the difference between a fade and a taper. When I asked him if he could fade it in better he got agitated and proceeded to get offended stating “I know how to do haircuts for this many years!” Complete childish behavior. No wonder the place was empty. Go literally anywhere else.

I have been to countless barbershops across the world, from New York to Paris, but nothing quite compares to the experience I had at this extraordinary barber shop. Without hesitation, I can confidently say this place deserves five stars— it’s truly the best of the best. What initially drew me in was the reputation this shop holds for its precision, style, and attention to detail, especially when it comes to beard trims. Coming from a country where beard grooming is an art steeped in tradition — where every stroke of the razor is almost ritualistic — I had certain expectations. But this barber shop didn’t just meet them; it exceeded them in ways I hadn’t imagined possible. Back home, beard trims are a meticulous process usually done with straight razors and hot towels, emphasizing softne
