Excellence Barber Shop & Hair Salon

One of the best I’ve experienced, Amir is great, my wife loves the cuts I get here every time, they all know what they’re doing

6/5 stars

Terrible haircut, worst haircut I have received since moving to NYC. He did not know how to do a basic fade. Would not recommend this place.

I've been several times since moving to the city and there's nowhere that's so affordable AND high quality. Frank has cut my hair and always is so so precise and personable. Very big community feeling!

Easily the best barbershop on the Upper West Side. Super friendly and always do a great job. Can’t recommend this place enough!

I always come back. I have gotten my haircut here for the last few years. The barbers are very kind and attentive. I like to specifically shout out Frank and Freddie as the two I usually go between. I can't recommend these two and everyone else in there enough. Thank you for always being welcoming and for the high quality hair cuts you've given me over the years.

Great cut from Bek. I have an uncommon hair texture and really appreciate the explanation of what he was doing and how I could style it

Frank killed it. Dude gave me one of the best cuts I’ve gotten in a while. Now I can feel happy to go into the world. I have a fresh cut ya heard!

I love Excellence - they respond fast and never fail to deliver! These guys are good at what they do.

Freddy is very kind and patient. He took all the time of the world to make my hair look great. The best part is getting a hot towel on your neck so you can feel relaxed for a short moment. The price is very reasonable for the area. Great job Freddy!

Would highly recommend this barber shop. Jay cut my hair and did an excellent job. Excellence is becoming my go-to barber shop

I highly do recommend Nina
She is amazing and affordable hair stylist.
Her good energy have make my hair grow fast and healthy.
The best hair stylist of Manhattan!

Was new to the city and skeptical about trying a new barber shop but this place blew my worries away. Got an amazing haircut from Frank and received tons of compliments. Would definitely recommend

Been getting my haircuts here for the past few months and they’ve always done a fantastic job!

One of the best haircuts I’ve had. I definitely recommend this place. Ask for Frank. He’s the GOAT!

Don’t know how to cut medium - longer hair. Quality of cut is not great

Edit: Looks even worse in the mirror at home, can’t believe I paid for this. Came on July 23rd. Don’t know the name of the barber he didn’t say.

I've been here about 6 times over the past year. Great cut every time no matter who I have as my barber. Jay always does a great job, and I just had Isaac for the first time and was very happy with the result. Will definitely be back!

Very satisfied with my basic haircut. Got the style I wanted, great service, and reasonable price. Will go again.

Be aware that if you’re not getting a very basic haircut, or something that they do every day they’re a high chance they’ll just give you a different haircut. I ask for a burst fade and showered many photos and was given a completely different haircut. Also they say 30 dollar haircut but it’s 38 after tax minimum so that’s another falsehood.

Amazing men’s haircut, would highly recommend for anyone in the area. Very kind, respectful barbers who don’t waste your time but also don’t make you feel rushed!

Went in on a Monday and got lucky with a quick reservation- sat with Frank and he gave me a FANTASTIC cut. Really great service and clearly great at his craft. Will definitely be going back for the next time.

I’ve been coming to this barbershop consistently for almost a year, and Bek never fails to do a great job!:)
