Jacob & the others over at Jean Romano Barber Shop are the only guys Ill let touch my hair on the Upper East Side. They genuinely care about each customer and make you feel like family. Even if Im not getting a haircut, Ill walk by just to chat with whoever is working that day or say hello to their birds!Ive been going to them at least 1x/month since I moved to Yorkville about 4 years ago and I honestly couldnt imagine getting a haircut anywhere else. Trying to feel & look really good? Add on a relaxing beard shave or trim as well! Cant beat it! Thanks Jacob for your years of dedication to the neighborhood
Jacob has been cutting my hair as well as my sons’ for more than 10 years. Precision scissor cuts. He works incredibly hard andis always reliable. He is also very good with children. He’s the best!
EXCELLENT HAIRCUT ALWAYS - plus++ jacob is caring, kind and easy to speak with. I’ve been coming here for 5+ years. It’s nice! Thank you!
Jacob is skilled, consistent, and friendly. He remembers how I like my hair cut. It feels nice to be treated like a local!
Jacob is the best. Been coming here for more than a decade. Excellent service and great cuts
I had written a very positive review before Covid saying how much I appreciated Jacob’s personal attention and skill. And now I realize that his artistry got my hair through last year and it seemed to grow along the lines that he had spent so much time working on. Now that I have the pleasure of resuming my haircuts, I appreciate him even more. At this point he is more than my barber, he is my friend.
Great atmosphere, even better haircut. Jacob is truly a master at his craft. Precise and fast!
Jacob is the absolute best. He remembers your name and details about you. Its such a wonderful neighborhood place and really brings that true barbershop feel. I recommend Jacob to anyone!
This is the best barbershop on the UES and Jacob is the best barber! I came here when another barber messed my hair up and Jacob fixed it right away. I’ve been coming here ever since and it’s always a great haircut!
Jacob has been cutting my hair for over a year now. He makes me and all his other patrons feel like family. The quality of his hair cuts are as good as the conversation. Thank you Jacob see you again soon - also nice he has a fridge with some sodas. I like the bird too.
Ive been going to Jean Romanos for 3 years and Ive never once had a bad experience. I tried a number of places in the area, but when I found Jacob and crew, I knew where all my haircuts were going to come from!The staff are super-friendly, and the haircuts are quick, clean, and exactly what I need (short back and sides, thin-out on top, thrown in neck shave and jobs a good one!).Im writing this review, because after 3 years of great service and friendship, Im leaving the area. Ill miss the team at Jean Romanos, thanks for everything, Jacob!
Amazing hair cut. Friendly and very professional. If you want a good hair cut, go to Jean Romero. Jacob and Solomon are the best!
Great service, great hair cut!
Always an excellent cut; never wait more than 5-10 minutes, even without a reservation. Well-priced for a thorough haircut; also does shaves. Definite stop for haircuts for men and boys.
Great local barber ! The staff is nice and welcome you like you are family. Efficient and super competitive. Treat yourself and get the “royal shave”
This is a great neighborhood barbershop. Everyone is genuinely friendly, they remember you by name even after just a couple visits. Strongly recommend to anyone. Enjoy.
Not good. Maybe it was just the guy I had but he completely messed up my cut. I even showed the guy several pictures OF MYSELF from different angles of how I like it cut, and he completely butchered my hair. There seem to be older barbers here. Maybe they struggle with the modern cuts that younger men like. I dont recommend.
Absolutely great local barber. Ive been going here for 10 years and Jacob always does a great job.
My “go to” place for a haircut - everyone is super friendly and they usually do a good job.
Very good service for the price. If you show them a picture of what you want theyll do a preety good job of recreating the cut.
Coming here for years. Granted, I am folically challenged but what little hair I have left looks forward to seeing my friends once a month. Friendly atmosphere, reasonable prices. A neighborhood gem
Love this place! I go to Alex, hes a great guy who cuts consistently and quickly. Never tried anyone else but other reviewers say great things.
Excellent service and attention to detail!
If your new, dont bother, felt like my race didnt meet his ideal guest, I went to get my beard shaped up and the guy did horrible he didnt know what he was doing, plus he was more in a rush than anything. This is just my experience.
Inconsistent but down to earth and good
Great service and good price especially for NYC
Terrible. Just completed a royal shave, cut neck and still many hairs on my face. Only bonus was friendly staff. However to have my neck cut for new years eve for 31 dollars is a disgrace. Stay away from this place
Fantastic service and extremely friendly. The classic neighborhood barber experience
Guys are great. My go to place
Great staff,very friendly and great service.
Friendly people, nice and quick haircuts.
I loved the birds
Worst experience ever! He was very rude, very unpleasant experience. He was even cutting my hair while he was watching boxing in the TV. I will never recommend this hairdresser to anyone.
All great barbers 👍
