Izzik is, quite simply, the best barber Ive ever experienced. What is more: his care, service, expertise, and results are in a league unto themselves. With a client-focused mentality and service-oriented professionalism, he has separated himself from the masses. A one-of-a-kind experience, to be sure. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

FINALLY! I have found a barber whom I really like; and his work as well! Isaac was very intentional in listening to how I like my hair cut! He is also a great conversationalist and interested in getting to know his clients. I highly recommend him!

Everything done right. Masks, temp check and hand sanitizer. The hair cut was excellent, the shop very clean. If you need a good safe haircut, this is the place!

Ive bounced around different barber shops for the last few years looking for a place I can call home and with a barber thats good. This seemingly easy task has proved to be impossible... that is until last week when I booked a last minute cut at Gentlemans Edge. The proprietor, Isaac, has been there for 18 years and you can tell he loves what does. A true craftsman, serious about his work, but quick to crack a joke too. Wonderful guy and an excellent professional barber. My quest to find my home barber is over. Thanks Isaac!

This is the only place in Portland I feel comfortable getting my haircut. The owner Isaac is a super funny and chill guy and will have wild conversations with you. He is excellent at doing his job, and coming here is always a great experience.

My husband and I relocated to Oregon about a year ago... We moved into a large upscale retirement community which provided us with a listing of recommended service providers such as doctors, dentists, lawyers, tax accountants, service stations and barbers. The Gentleman’s Edge has exceeded my husband’s expectations and he has been going back religiously since his first visit. Isaac is the consummate professional, providing an excellent haircut, while also providing wonderful guidance for someone like us, new in town.

My hair looks great. Isaac runs this place and really knows what hes doing! Lots of good conversation and positivity. He loves cars and took some great shots of my car which was fun too! I wish my hair grew faster so I can go back. Check it out. Youll have a good time and look good.

This is my new found favorite barber shop. Long wait, good conversation, relaxed atmosphere, worth every dollar. These barbers take their time ensuring you walk out looking clean. Im not going anywhere else from now on

Always a great experience getting a hair cut here. You do not make an appointment but instead come in and chit chat with the couple of other people in the shop, try to solve a puzzle or read a magazine. Even with s couple of people in front of you the wait wont be too long. Certainly the only place I would go get my hair cut in Lake Oswego

If youre reading this, just go. Top 3 haircuts Ive ever gotten for medium length hair.He uses cutting edge styles mixed with what were comfortable with and never anything clique. Coming from a guy whos gone to Birds Barbershop in Austin, Tx his entire life, I felt more like I was in a version of birds that could have been. I actually havent been in few years, but he greatly improved my regular look in a way I havent been able to get from premium salons since. Moved out of Bend and Oregon but the next time I visit Portland, Ill be going here.Awesome experience; Awesome service. The classiest barbershop Ive been to. 10/10

Issac is not only a professional barber, he is a great person to know and cares about his clientele. Ive finally found a barber who can cut my hair consistently and the perfectionist in me is always at ease. Id highly recommend him, his experience and quality is unmatched and there is no other barber I would trust to cut my hair. Its always a good time going in, even if there is a wait the atmosphere is friendly for all ages.

Great place to have your hair cut. I’ve been going here for years and have always loved the atmosphere, conversations and of course a quality hair cut every time.Great place to meet new local neighbors and catch up on any sports that are on tv (he’s got every channel 😀)

Going to a barbershop should be just as much about the experience as it is the cut and this guy balances it all perfectly. Never before have I made it a habit of visiting a barbershop regularly until I stepped foot into The Gentlemans Edge Barber Shop. A unique and well curated place with a very homey feel. Issac delivers each time with a first class haircut! Great man, top-notch barbershop, and always accommodating. Thank you, Issac!

My boyfriend has been going to Isaac for his haircuts ever since we met. This guy knows what he is doing! He not only trims him up, he makes him look stylish and classy. Sometimes I will make suggestions to my boyfriend about hairstyles, and Isaac has always been able to make my ideas into reality. :) I would highly recommend sending your man to Isaac if you want him to come home looking handsome, well-groomed gentleman.

Many men find themselves in unisex beauty salons. But I looked for a good barber & I found Issac-a reliable, skilled precision cutter. He consistently gives me my perfect cut with every visit. They say you should look for a place thats always busy. You have to get in line for Issac but you will leave with a great cut every time. I drive an hour to see him & will probably drive 3 hours when I move. He is just that good. Peter...

Izzik is the man! Great cut, conversation, reasonable prices. He even vacuums off your head when he’s done! Total game changer. Would recommend.

I’ve been getting haircuts at the Gentlemans Edge for about five years and no other barber has the same attention to detail as Isaac. The Gentleman’s Edge engages in all sorts of topics for conversation with the additional formula one racing, golf, tennis, and other great sports playing on the television at all times. Isaac is a great barber who knows exactly what he’s doing and constantly checks to make sure he is meeting your expectations. I wouldn’t have my hair cut by anyone else.

I am very picky when it comes to my hair and when I moved to Oregon I was really worried about getting a haircut somewhere new. Isaac knew exactly what I wanted and pulled it off perfectly. I refuse to get my haircut anywhere else in OR, Great conversations, great barber, great haircut and great price.-Moe

I no longer have to worry about franchise operations where people come and go all the time and you have to worry about how your hair is going to look each time they switch people on you. Isaac is the master of his space and profession. Excellent barber, wonderful guy. Very fair pricing. Takes pride in his work and stands behind it, too. No reason for me to look anywhere else for a haircut.

Review №31

I first saw Isaac five years ago on a random stop on my way from Eugene to the Portland airport. I couldnt believe how much better he cut my hair than the stylist I was using at the time. It was so memorable that two years later when I moved to Portland I sought him out and have been seeing him once a month ever since. He is very consistent in how much focus he puts into your cut and you will be happy. Isaac is also a friend. So much so I made it a point to bring my girlfriend in at my last cut just to make introductions. Id sum it up best by saying that seeing Isaac has become a lovely tradition that I always look forward to. You should do the same.

This is officially the only place I will get my haircut in/or around the Portland Metro Area. All those hipster chop shops simply do not stack up to the level of detail I have experienced at this shop. A five star experience every time.

Izzik is a true professional. While I always get a terrific haircut, as importantly, I enjoy the conversation and how friendly and comfortable he makes his shop. It is a great place just to hang out for a while after your haircut. There are always interesting people in the shop, and fun conversation. And, where else will you find a Ferrari flag or two pinned to the ceiling. As the owner operator, Izzik offers a great experience. Well done!

Review №37

I am finished looking for a barber. My regular barber retired leaving me out in the cold so to speak, and I ended up trying the Gentlemans Edge Shop in Lake Oswego. First let me say I have never in my life had a barber as knowledgeable as Isaac. I am 71 years of age with white hair that has been acting weird ever since it lost its color. It has always given barbers a problem, but not Isaac. He knew exactly what caused it and how to cut it. Also, informed me I should always ask a barber to cut my hair to 3/4 on the side and back, and 3 on the top. NEVER, has any barber Ive used in the past ever been so specific. He is meticulous and doesnt mind being patient to take the time needed to cut your hair correctly. Ive never paid as much as $28 for a haircut, but even so what I recvd in service, etc. was worth the cost. If youre looking for a barber I highly recommend Isaac.

I was referred to Izzik about 7 years ago and would never consider another shop to touch my head. friendly, clean, professional, and he cuts great hair. Not to mention a fresh barrel of red vines are always close by. If you need a consistent, high quality haircut, The Gentlemens Edge is your best bet.

Izzik has been cutting my hair for the majority of my life. Whether it has been to help me win wacky hair day at school, or to destroy the evidence of my participation, or in preparation of a date or job interview.Izzik has made the Gentlemans Edge not just a successful business but a part of the community. Perhaps its the conversations that he is able to draw the whole shop into; the atmosphere of Izziks shop is not that of a business but that of a friends house.His skills are solid and once youve sat in his chair you can expect hell remember you the next time you walk in.

Izzak is the best deal for a barber youre going to find in Lake O, I have dense hair that gives most barbers nightmares, but Izzak just took right to it and gave be the best haircut I have ever had. The feel of The Gentlemans Edge is homely, friendly, and freeing. Izzak is both the best barber and one of the coolest people I have met. I will gladly go again for another haircut.

Izzik is a true professional who knows his trade.I tried a few times to tell him what I wanted and he listened. Finally he asked me to let him do his job and trust him. Best cut happened.Plan on a little wait, but the results are well worth it!The conversation is iffy especially if it involves MotoGP racing, but go ahead and correct him hell listen. :)Lance Coffel

GEARHEADS REJOYCE! If you are a lover of cars, motorcycles, or anything with a motor, Isaac is the man for you. We chatted for almost an hour about cars, motorcycles, engines, aerodynamics, and everything in between. Italy was the subject of this visit, with topics including Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani, and Ducati all included. Pictures and videos were shared, along with personal experiences of our most exciting car and bike moments. We even watched some F1 and MotoGP races, breaking down the highlights and giggling like children over the antics of the drivers. Even if you dont live and breath automobiles, Isaac is incredibly easy to talk to, and interested in almost everything. Oh, and the haircut was the best one Ive ever had. Highly recommend.
