Oh my goodness! This barbershop was awesome. Professional, friendly, diverse, and skillful. I was worried about allowing them to cut my sons hair as we are African American and none of the barbers were African American. I was concerned that they would not be familiar with his hair type. Boy was I wrong. They shaped and cut his afro to perfection. We were last minute walk in clients and they treated us as if we had an appointment. They were efficient and friendly.read more

I had my haircut by Elvin today, and he did an awesome job! I have been to many barbers in my life and find it hard to find someone with the skill and eye to give a good barber cut. Elvin was efficient and very professional. He did the haircut in a very quick manner. I am writing this review because I want you to be known by many. Keep up the good work!read more

I brought my partner here for a beard trim because I heard so many great reviews about this Barbershop.

Excellent haircuts from friendly and professional barbers with fair prices. I've been coming here for about 4 years and never got a bad cut. I stopped by this week since they recently opened back up and they were following the right safety protocols (limited number of people allowed inside, everyone wearing masks). Highly recommend these guys!read more

I've been a customer for years now, but more than ever I want to highlight how great is this establishment.As we all know, the pandemic has really hit small businesses hard. Sam has built his business with his family throughout these years through hard work, quality cuts, and friendly service.Now that NYC is slowly opening up, don't forget to visit Sam. Don't forget all those times his fresh cuts got you through a date or an important meeting. We all know how desperate we've become for a clean cut, and Elegant G is the only place to get such cuts.Be sure to wear a mask, respect his health and the health of others.read more

Have been going to elegant g for about 2 years now. Initially found them from the great reviews. Have used multiple different barbers: Vito (moved out of state), Farukh, Tim and Sam (owner).Can say that Sam really runs a great shop in making sure the barbers that work there know what they’re doing, have attention to detail and provide great service. That being said, my haircuts have been amazing. Price is extremely reasonable. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a barber.read more

I've been coming to Sam's shop for the last 5 years, starting only a couple months after he first opened. In fact, I've lived in Manhattan for 10+ years, and this is the only shop I've come back to even after every time I've moved. In the past I've usually waited for Sam, but he personally knows and hires most of his team, and I've never had an issue with any of his barbers. His team, like him, is mostly Asians from Eastern Europe. Given that, I've found that they're probably one of the best in the city at working with thick Asian hair. Although I've rarely had a problem, especially after the first 1-2 trips with the same barber, if you voice your concern in the seat they (and Sam personally) will make sure you leave happy.read more

I have been coming to this barbershop for more than 5 years. In my 10 years living in NYC, this is hands down the best. Asian hair can be hard to cut, and apparently mine is tougher than the “norm.” But all the barbers here do a great job. Many many thanks to Sam for always taking care of me, and for having done so for many many years.read more

I have been paying way too much money, for way too long, for a haircut in NYC that was just fine...until I found Elegant G barber shop! You get as much attention and detail to your needs as the other pricier barber shops. Sam is my go to barber. He’s highly proficient, knowledgeable about all hair types and just over all a pleasant person to have a conversation with. He’s quick to figure out what you want in a haircut. I’ve had haircuts with other barbers when Sam wasn’t around and I can honestly say that I’ve had just as good of an experience, so the options are there. I’m moving out of state soon, so I’m dreading having to search for a barber as good as Sam. I highly recommend checking this spot out. Tell Sam that Daniel sent you!read more

I first started coming to Elegant G in the summer or 2018 when I moved to NYC for an internship. I was looking for a barber who specialized in cutting Asian hair and saw that Sam (the owner) was highly recommended. Sam hasn’t disappointed in the 3 years I’ve been coming to him. He is extremely consistent and will also listen to what you want. If you’re unsure, he is happy to give recommendations. I am very happy with the quality of Sam’s cuts, and I think the price is well worth it. Honestly, Sam could be charging a lot more than he does now. He is also just a really nice, personable human being. I highly recommend him, especially if you’re looking for someone who is good with Asian hair.read more

Love this place I travel from Brooklyn to here because a gentleman by the name of Stas works there and I been going to him for awhile even before he worked at this place. He does a perfect job every time and makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. There’s also usually parking on the block which is rare in the city. Inside is very clean and professional. I highly recommend Stas I been to a lot of barbers but no one cuts hair as good as him. Super down to earth guy you won’t regret going there. Never felt rushed he always pays attention to detail and takes his time. He does a great beard shape up as well! Trust me go to him and you’ll feel confident you got the best haircut around anyone.read more

Sam and team are the most consistent and high quality stylists for haircuts and trims. I've moved all over the city from UES, Fidi, Jersey City, and LES and still go to Elegant G every month. As a Korean, I have Asian hair that most barbers don't style and cut quite right, but Sam always understands what I'm looking for. He also checks the various angles and each cut in detail to ensure quality is high. Regardless of the day or time, they've always been meticulous. I'd highly recommend for anyone looking for their go-to barber.read more

I've been living in NYC for almost 9 years now and have been through my fair share of barbers trying to find people who can cut Asian hair. I'm really grateful to have found Elegant G. Every one of the barbers here is incredibly attentive and skilled at their craft. I am always getting compliments from my friends and asked where I get my cuts! Also, their rates are competitively priced for NYC given the high quality of their service. Reservations are handy but walk-ins also accepted! Could not recommend more.read more

I've been getting cuts here for a little over two years now. My experience have always been great. When you find a great barber, stick with it. Every guy knows that. I've moved around in the city so from time to time it's more difficult for me to come out to the city for a haircut. I do it anyways because I only trust Elegant G with my haircuts. Throughout this time, I've gotten cuts from various barbers there and chatted up great convos here and there. However, I now only get my cuts exclusively through Sam because he knows my hairstyle. He's the owner and he knows what he's doing because he's precise. As someone who is detail-oriented, I know that he is skilled at his craft. When you get your haircut at Elegant G, you can decide who your go-to barber will be.read more

Simply put, Sam knows what he is doing. As an Asian male who has a very specific vision for his hair (as Sam puts it - a “picky” but not a “pain in the ass” customer), I have attempted to find the perfect barber all the way from extremely cheap chinatown shacks to high-end Japanese salons. Although the latter often do a great job, the price point is unsustainable due to the bi-weekly frequency. Sam is the perfect solution - precise, consistent, and reasonably priced. If you are also a picky Asian male customer then look no further.read more

I've been a customer of Elegant G Barbershop for over 5 years now, and I consider it one of the best in the city. As an African-American, it can be difficult to find barbers in central Manhattan who know what they're doing, but I can say with authority that all of the Barbers at Elegant G are experts. I would recommend any and all of them; I personally have been cut most by Stas but have spent time in everyone's chair and never left disappointed.

Their attention to detail and precision during the cut/style left me feeling incredibly satisfied with the final result. Not only did I leave the salon looking and feeling amazing, but I also received numerous compliments on my hair afterward. I can't recommend Elegant G for their professionalism, talent, and friendly demeanor. Thank you for the wonderful experience!"read more

I've tried multiple barbers in the area and none have compared to Sam/team at Elegant G. I've now been going here for 5 years and have referred multiple people. Everyone shares the same consensus: clean, great haircuts, and an overall easy experience. Highly recommend this barber shopread more

I have been going here for about 2 years, and I can say with utmost confidence, they give the best hair cut around at a great price. I usually make an appointment in advance with Sam, but the other barbers always take walk-ins. You might have to wait, but it’s worth it. I am very particular about how I like my hair cut, and I’ve never been disappointed. I sprung for my first beard trim today. It has never looked better. Big bonus points for the no-fee ATM for customers.read more

Jay is awesome! I’ve been an Elegant G customer for 7+ years and have had most/all of their barbers cut my hair. All pretty good, but Jay has been my go-to guy for a while. Always takes his time to ensure a good cut. Go try them out!read more

Just got a haircut from Sam at the Elegant G barbershop on East 28th street, and got one of the best haircuts from him. Sam is a one of the best stylist in NYC and is one of the kindest person. I recommend anyone looking for fresh clean and best cuts go to Sam Kim at Elegant G on East 28th between Lexington Ave and 3rd Ave.read more

Sam is the man. I can confidently say that he knows exactly what he’s doing. He is the GOAT. In my opinion, this is the best place in NYC. I’ve never got my hair cut by the other crew members but I assume they’re all talented folks. They’re all super friendly and most importantly, the quality of the cut is perfect. It’s really hard to find a barber shop that can handle asian hair so this place is truly a hidden gem. I’d recommend this place to all men no matter your age or ethnicity. Love this place. Trust me and give it a try 👍read more

Atmosphere & AmbianceFrom the moment I stepped in, I was impressed by the modern yet inviting decor. The shop has a sleek, professional feel without losing the comfortable, welcoming vibe you’d expect from a neighborhood barbershop.

The products used felt high-quality, and I appreciated that they offered advice on styling and maintenance tailored to my hair type.4.

The scheduling system allowed me to choose my preferred barber and time slot, which was a big plus.

I have been going to Sam’s shop for the past 8 years. It took me two so-so cuts from two separate barbers when I moved to the city in order to stumble upon Elegant G. From 2016-2019, Elegant G was my main barbershop for my monthly fade and line up. They’re professional, prompt and make you feel like their undivided attention is only on you. I’ve since relocated to CA but whenever I’m in the city, I make it a point to see Sam.read more

I recently visited Sam at Elegant G Barbershop and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care and attention they put into their work. From the moment I sat in the chair, it was clear that they truly care about delivering a perfect haircut. They took their time to understand exactly what I wanted, asking thoughtful questions and offering suggestions based on my preferences and hair type.The precision and detail they put into every step of the process were remarkable. They didn’t rush a single part of the haircut and checked in with me throughout to ensure I was happy with how it was shaping up. It’s obvious they take great pride in their craft, and it shows in the results.Not only was the haircut flawless, but the overall experience was also so relaxing. It’s rare to find a barber who combines such technical skill with genuine customer care. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending them to anyone looking for top-notch service. If you’re looking for a barber who takes the time to make you look and feel your best, this is the place to go!read more

Sam, the owner, was my stylist. Spoke with Sam prior to style about the look I was hoping to achieve, and he excelled beyond my expectations. The fade is the best I've ever had, in over 10 years- he's very skilled. My Eli gated head intimidates some barber of fading the back of my head- but Sam not only faded with style but in a way I've not seen on my head in sometime.I'm comforted knowing my hair will always be cut to excellence, because I'm found my stylist- his name is Sam and he owns Elegant.read more

I went to go see Sam after having inconsistent haircuts. He told me exactly what had happened to my hair and had fixed it since. Sam is exactly what you want in a barber. He has tons of experience and gives you options on how he can give the haircut YOU want and also explains on what he did to make sure it looks balanced. 10/10 for me. The only reason I would switch barbers is if the haircut was free.read more
