Alex and the regular barbers are great and consistently give a good cut. Originally found this place as it was nearby, but now live in battery park and trek back uptown as they are worth it. As of July 2017, haircut was $22 and worth every penny. They have straight razor shave and shampoo services also.It can be busy after work and weekends, but usually less than 15 min wait, they work fast even with a line. Stop by in AM and you will likely walk right in. I'm writing this at 10:30 AM on a Sat and only one other person is in the shop with me. Alex, his #4 and his straight razor are a monthly ritual.read more

I’m new to the city and I have been finding barbershops after my self-quarantine. When I saw this place online and found out that it was affordable, I decided to go there. When I arrived there, the place and the people didn’t disappoint me at all. First of all, it was clean. Secondly, the lady who cut my hair was really nice and made sure I was satisfied with the length of my hair. I would definitely come back to this place!read more

When I think of a great barber, I think of someone I can trust. The type where I can fall asleep in the chair (hypothetically) and wake up looking like a new man ready to go to a gala. This is my experience every time I go to Premium Barbershop. Arther is nothing short of a master at his craft and overdelivers every time I go. I get in the chair and he know what I want (I get the same thing every time). Two things I value in every product/service I buy is quality and consistency. That is what I receive every time at Premium.read more

As a black guy in midtown it can be hard to find a good spot to get a cut, but this place does a really solid job. I’ve been a regular for a few months now. Everyone is very friendly and offers great service. But if you are black, make sure to not get cut by the older woman. She’ll only do the bare minimum so you’ll have to line yourself up at home and she overcharged me, compared to usual $26 cut. Plus she asked me to bring cash next time even though they accept card and I’ve used card every other time. Weirdread more

As a black guy in midtown it can be hard to find a good spot to get a cut, but this place does a really solid job. The only problem is that I’ve had to wait longer just to get a cut because not all of them are willing to cut a black guy’s hair. At least, unlike other of their locations, there are a couple barbers who are willing. I’ve been a regular for a few months now. Everyone is very friendly and offers great service.

I've been living in New York City for 12 years now and Premium Barbershop is by far the best place to get a haircut.Before I found Premium, I used to worry about getting bad haircuts from beginner barbers, but at Premium everyone is so talented it truly doesn't matter who cuts your hair.You can tell everyone loves being there and loves their job, which creates such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. All their haircuts include a straight razor shave and warm towel, which I love. You'll also feel very safe regarding Covid, as every barber station has dividers.If you're looking for a spot to get an exceptional cut at an affordable price look no further, highly recommend!read more

This is my go-to place for haircuts. I will literally travel to Queens for the location by grand central. I always go to Karen, she is an awesome barber and always knows what I want. She always gives a great haircut and is always friendly. Usually barbers have a hard time cutting my hair because its very straight, but Karen is able to work with it. Definitely would recommend this place to others looking to get a great haircut.read more

I'm looking forward for the next appointment. Highly recommended!!..read more

Decent quality haircut and my wait wasn't too long. However, the lady who was doing my haircut was also the person who was telling walk-ins to wait (and how long the wait was). Because of this, I felt like she kept getting distracted and that my haircut took much longer than it should have. They really should have a receptionist or a sign to mitigate this.read more

Strangers have come up to me on the street commenting on my haircut. So be sure to stop by!read more

Great haircut for my very curly, difficult hair! I've been trying to find a new barber for a while since mine left my local spot. Went to several places across Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan - some were ok but most just wrecked my very curly hair. Yuri here at premium did a nice scissor cut, came out even, well shaped, still have curls at the top like I wanted. All in about 20 mins during my lunchbreak. Even the price was good. Really happy with the cut and convenient location.read more

Recently switched over to these guys, and they definitely know their stuff. Went over during my lunch and Eli quickly got me seated on his chair when he saw I coming over. He was straight to the point & knew exactly where to cut & thin to style the top how I described. All of them can do a solid fade to your liking too.Whether you need to look corporate or are headed out for the night, they can cut & style it to match. And they do it at pretty good value too when you look at the rest of Midtown.read more
