In Short – One of the city's few barber shops that caters exclusively to men, State Street sports a retro-minded decor, complete with traditional fixtures and hardwood floors. Patrons enjoy a complimentary beverage and poke through papers and mags or engage in friendly banter with the staff. Expert barbers--State Street employs certified barbers, not stylists--provide haircuts and hot lather shaves (each cost $34 and are finished with a quick neck massage).

State St. Barbers is fantastic

by captain1971

I work in the South End and a few of my co-workers have been raving about State St. Barbers. The weather finally got nicer so I decided to check it out. Beautiful space, very nice girl at the front desk. My barber's name was Ben Jr. Great guy, well-spoken. I wanted something professional but not conservative and he knocked it out of the park. I got back to the office and a couple of the secretaries gave me major thumbs up on my new 'do. I'll definitely be paying Ben Jr. another visit in a few weeks.

  • Pros: excellent quality, great environment, good value

They compelled me to sign up and write my first bad review.

by Arpegio

The entire haircut was spent listening to the guy complain that i was 12 minutes late. For 15 minutes I was lectured like a high schooler that ditched home room. I warned them I was coming from Malden, and that I might be a little late.

They offer you a drink. I got tea...in a styrofoam cup...scorching hot... with tea flakes floating in it. Yum

The haircut itself was fine I guess. The guy didn't cut enough off. That part is my fault for not saying anything, but I didn't want to be in that place any longer then I had to.

He didn't deserve my money, he deffinitely didnt get a tip.

  • Pros: If it was cut the right length, I'm sure it would have been fine.
  • Cons: Everything else you could possibly imagine. Supercuts is better.
