Fantastic experience: First time with a longer beard (relatively speaking), so a little apprehensive about getting it cut. No need to worry, I was is Scott’s capable hands and I left the barbers feeling and looking good. Only a short walk from Union Square, so easy access too. There’s a nice friendly atmosphere, so well worth a visit…I’m already booked.

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at The Cave Barber Shop. I was staying in the hospital and called in the morning. After I explained my situation, Nauris offered me an appointment within two hours, which was incredibly accommodating. Nauris was exceptionally polite on the phone and greeted me warmly when I arrived. For my peace of mind, I asked that the equipment be cleaned in front of me, and Nauris agreed without hesitation and handled everything with great professionalism. He took his time, paid close attention to detail, and the final result was outstanding. The price for the service was also very reasonable. I highly recommend The Cave Barber Shop, especially Nauris, and would gladly give more than five stars if I could.

Juhi Larkin Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: I read very nice review than I made an appointment for my husband's hair cut, few months back. It was a girl who cut his hair. She took 45 minutes which sounds very good since my husband's hair was long, but in the end she made him a bird whose WINGS GOT CHOPPED. Every time my husband looks in the mirror and felt his hair got SLAUGHTER. Now finally he looks better. why I'm writing this review now? because I asked him if he wanted to have hair cut.
