Been going here for as long as I’ve lived in Chicago and might still try to fly back from time to time after I’ve moved. Can’t ask for a better barber — great conversation, and a perfect cut each time.
Norm is an excellent old school barber. The man knows how to cut hair and knows a ton of great chicago history! Classic man, go get your hair cut here.
Great cut, $30. 2nd floor, inside building there is a guard posted at front desk that can help navigate the inside of the building if you are unfamiliar
Noverto is the best barber that Ive met ever. Hes a super personable person that everyone will love. With his 35 years of experience, he gave great hairstyle for a decent price of $30 (put into perspective of a broke college student). Would definitely recommend. [p.s. its a bit hard to go in since you need to get into the Flat Iron Arts building studio first by waiting in front of the door for the security to let you in.] + You also get the perks of getting a small tour of the gorgeous art studio around the barbershop.
I scheduled an appointment and went to get a haircut only to find out that the address listed is an apartment building that requires a code to enter. I waited outside for a few minutes but no one answered. I even tried calling the place and no one picked up.
Norm is the epitome of a Chicago barber. If you’re trying to kick back, and get a good cut over good conversation he is your guy.
He’s a nice and funny guy with good prices, but I’ve been going to him for a year and he never gets my hair the way I want it, even when I show him a picture of how I want it to look. He’s been cutting hair for 40 years and seems to be burnt out. I just left and noticed he didn’t even take anything off the top, just like last time, even though I asked him to. This is my last visit! Also I once had to wait an hour past my appointment time, and he frequently is confused about his own schedule. There are better options even if he’s conveniently located.
Booked an appointment with this “barber” months ago. Was confirmed and I made my way over. Door was locked and heard a dog barking non stop. Called the number multiple times and left a voicemail. Never had the decency to call me back to reschedule or apologize. It is obvious that this is not a real business and can not be taken seriously. If you can’t respect a potential new customer then how do you expect to increase or expand your business? You have a lot to learn.
Been going to Bucktown Barber for a few years now. The reviews are very true, Norm is the real deal. The man is from another era, where what he says is his own and is his god given opinion. Go else where if you can’t handle someone having a different view point than you. But, If you want the full barber experience and honest conversation, go here, Norm will treat you right.
Norm has cut my hair a few times. Always satisfied with the end product and colorful sports related conversations. Old School Barber.
I have been going to this barber the entire three years that I have lived in Chicago. He was the first barber that I tried when I moved to the city and I have never gone elsewhere in Chicago. I highly recommend this barbersop.
Great haircut! Will def go back. Make sure and call or use website for appointment. No walkins.
I come here for quality hair cuts at least once a month. The guys are really nice an value their customers most. I will never go elsewhere.
Norm is great - does a fantastic job. Quick, no hassle, clean cut. Worth the money and definitely coming back. Be sure to say hi to Charlie.
Norm cuts my hair at least once a month. I will never go elsewhere. He is extremely friendly and professional. If you are in need of a new barber shop this is where you should go!
Its always hard to find a good barber you can rely on to get a top-notch haircut. Thats what you get when you visit Norm...great guy, great barber.
I have been going here for years. Best barber shop in town. Norm is the man.
I have been going to Norm, for many many years! Excellent haircut by a REAL PROFESSIONAL, he makes you feel like family. Its worth the wait!
Classic barber. One man operation. I enjoyed talking with him and my hair looked nice
Norm was great. Received a great haircut and the staff is wonderful. Definitely going to continue coming here.
Old-school barber loves his craft and gives great haircuts; if you can get past the misogyny. I couldn’t.
Best guy in town. Old school barber. ENJOY.
Genuine nice guy and excellent barber is Norm. Today was my first cut. I will be back.
Been here several times and will keep coming back. Great mens hair cut without the local hipster vibe.
