I'd like to commend one of the barbers, Mark, who I photographed after he trimmed my beard better than just about anyone I've ever had do it. Mark was fast, crisp, clean, and organized. The entire shop is bright and airy and the original barbershop chairs have been reupholstered. Great vibe inside too.read more

The experience given at Ray' Barbershop on Park Place is definitely one that's for the sophisticated, smart, professional, confident man who takes himself serious,.embraces his appearance and magnifies his swagger!!!

My COVID haircut needed some well deserved cleaning up. As businesses opened up, I was happy to see Ray's Barber shop too. Went there today and as usual they did a fantastic job. It was very quiet and not busy at all. Was speaking the owner I believe and it crazy how the closures have hurt small businesses. They are super friendly, they care, they do a great job and I am here writing this review not only because it's well deserved, but for anyone just browsing and looking for place to get your hair done, visit Ray's. Not once did I feel the risk of contracting COVID, they were super sanitary, everyone had masks on, even the other customer. Don't be shy, get a haircut, look the part, and support local businesses!read more

This was a phenomenal experience, I genuinely believe this I had one of the best barbershop experiences I've ever had (I'm 24 years old, yes still young but consider my words here). The barber that cut my hair is named Mark and he did a great job. From cutting my hair in a way that made me feel very comfortable (didn't pull my hair, didn't jerk my head around, didn't cut hair and leave it in my face) to actually doing a good job at cutting my hair (faded my sides wonderfully, followed my sideburn line and evened where necessary, cut a very even amount on the top + followed my style), it was a great choice from me to go there. Very reasonably priced and will be going there from now on. I moved from West Palm Beach, FL ~2 months ago and have had my hair cut by many good barbers in Miami as well, but Ray's barber tops them all.read more

My neighborhood barber shop that I can always rely on. They’re very professional and maintain the place neatly.

But I’ve dealt with others there as well and they’re all great. Happy to have such a great place that I can rely on.PS: they’ve been great with social distancing and safety measures during Covid-19 times.read more

Ray’s Barber shop is my go to whenever I’m in lower Manhattan. Conveniently located only 3 blocks away from the Chambers St stop for both the 1,2,and 3 Lines and the A,C,and E lines. The barber shop is extremely clean and the environment is very friendly in here. They take care of you and offer a variety of different services. I always get a Medium skin fade and a line up. Expect to pay on average about 40 dollars for your cut after tip, which in Tribeca is reasonably priced. I always make sure to ask for Ray whenever I come in, or call ahead to confirm my appointment. Been going here for about a year and can’t see myself going anywhere else.read more

I'm in the city only occasionally for in-office work, and I was looking for a barber shop open early enough and walking distance to my office downtown so I could go before work. Additional background is that I had been cutting my own hair with electric clippers for the prior 2.5 years, and things were getting weird. No comments on the bizarre butchery I had done to myself. Ray's shop was clean and pleasant, and my barber Mark was professional and did a nice job cutting my hair.read more

This is a real deal barbershop for men. Have been a few times prior but long overdue it is that I give these professionals the praise they deserve. I walked in early morning and Mark jumped up to ready his chair for my cut while I hung my jacket up. He was friendly, attentive, and an obvious master of his craft. I could tell he took great pride in his service and his ability to give me a masterful hair cut. And that he did. He gave me the best hair cut I've gotten in a while. He will be my guy, now. This is where gentlemen go to get their hair cut by top notch barbers. A+read more

Ray's is a great spot for a reliably great haircut. I've been coming here consistently for the past year and couldn't be more pleased. It's very convenient (super easy to walk in without an appointment), fair priced, and consistent quality across multiple barbers.read more

I went to Rays for a haircut and beard trim. Mark helped me out and gave me a great haircut. He was very professional and fast . He gave me suggestions on what to do since I went in without any particular cut in mind. I highly suggest the place . Ask for Mark , he is a master of his craft.read more

One of the things I love most about NYC is that you can walk into any well rated barber shop and get a top-quality haircut. I was a walk-in. I got a trim before attending a wedding, and it was excellent.read more

I’ve been going to Ray’s for the 2 years I’ve been living in Manhattan and have had a great experience so far. I feel the quality of cuts is very high and they are also flexible to discussing different hair styles and pros and cons of different choices. The facility is also very clean and nice which makes visiting very enjoyable. My barber has also suggested new ideas like blending scissor cuts and different razor levels to make better side fades than either alone can provide.read more

Did an amazing job on my boyfriend who was getting scruffy. He came in for a haircut and a beard shave, leaving just his mustache. His barber worked fast and she made sure to check in with him until he was happy.Make sure to bring cash for tip. You can pay by card but cash is better for tip.read more

Just got another excellent cut from Ray himself. I’ve probably had a haircut from every barber here though, and without fail they are always precise, professional, friendly, and fast. I moved uptown years ago but I still take the train down to Ray’s every time I need a haircut.read more

Moved to the area in March and was looking for a new barber. Walked over to Rays which is a beautiful shop and convenient location. Frank cut my hair the first time and he did an awesome job. Have been back many times as I usually go every 1-2 weeks. Prices on par with NY. All staff is friendly and talented. Highly recommend if you’re looking for skilled barbers.read more

I almost never get my haircut anywhere but here. Whenever I go elsewhere I still have to come here to get it fixed. I don’t even work in the neighborhood anymore, but I’ve never stopped coming. Fast service, professional service, thoughtful service, but also, kind, friendly and respectful. No possible complaints.read more

Ray’s is great! Walk-ins only, but I’ve never had to wait long and they have plenty of skilled barbers on staff. Lilia is excellent and helped me to find a style that works best for me.

I do not generally post reviews but this was an A+ haircut experience. In nine minutes, I got a better haircut than I have gotten from stylists who have taken 50 minutes. I walked in right when they opened and immediately got in a booth. Service was top notch, friendly, efficient, just all around excellent. Cannot recommend Ray’s highly enough.read more

I got my haircut by Ray let me tell you something. The best haircut I ever got in my life. Very precise, very elegant. The atmosphere is incredible. Very sophisticated something that the society lacks right now. If you want to feel like $1 million go see Ray tell him that Tony sent you!read more

Very nice and clean shop. Came as walk-in. My barber was attentive and gave me the perfect cut that I wanted even without me having to request what I wanted specifically. Professional eye! Quick with no bells and whistles.Standard pricing which I think is pretty good for the neighborhood.read more

Stopped in randomly for a haircut and fortunately it was my turn when Valerie was next up. She did an awesome job. I have thick gray hair which has a mind of its own and she gave me an amazing cut. So many people either leave it too long at sides and it gets bushy in a week or make it too short. She really is talented. I will be back.read more
