Great atmosphere, cool decorations. Did a great job will be going back.

My first time here but will definitely be going back. Great haircut and friendly service.

Doug is the man! Great haircut and very cool atmosphere at the shop.

This establishment is one of the great gems of Newark. Nay, America. Doug and Dakota make everyone who stops by feel welcome. Expect a sophisticated haircut and philosophical musings with every visit.

Best barber shop around

Great work and good people.

Doug did a great job with my sons first haircut! He even ended the appointment with a certificate of his first haircut which I absolutely adored. He’s always been great to my husband every time he goes into the barbershop. We will continue to go back for future haircuts. I highly recommend him.

First time getting cut from Dakota at Doug cross barber shop came highly recommend from many friends was not disappointed

Best barber in town. Friendly atmosphere.

I really enjoy using this barbershop. Great guys, friendly banter and a nice cut. The other customers of the shop were friendly as well whether its your first time or your a repeat customer youre welcomed like an old friend.

Great place for a mens or boys haircut! Both my son and I went there and it was professional, nice and sharp- fellow veterans stop by for a cut!

Great place super friendly guys

I recommend Doug Cross to anyone, and everyone, that I know. I’ve watched Doug grow up and I’m proud to see what he’s made of and for himself. Moving on... you will not get a better cut in Newark, or even surrounding areas! Doug is a young barber with an old school feel. Remember getting shaved with a straight razor? Doug does it. Remember getting a hot towel? Doug does it. Remember going to the barber shop and having conversation about sports, politics, what the kids are doing? Welcome to Doug Cross Barber. I love this guy. I love this shop.

Great haircut in a reasonable time! Doug Cross is a must go if youre looking for something more than Great Clips!

As former military, I have a hard time finding a barber that can cut a proper haircut to my standards (I’m picky as hell and I own that). After driving over 30 minutes in my quest for a good cut I was pleasantly surprised. A real honest-to-gawd barbershop with barbers that know what they are doing! Looks like I’m going to be making a lot more 30 minute drives...

Only barber shop on town that my husband will go!

It is always great to go into a barber shop where the barbers such as Doug and Dakota are passionate about what they do. Doug has done an outstanding job with not only my hair cut but also shaping my beard. I highly recommend checking them out!

Amazing man, amazing environment, amazing haircuts. I drive 45 minutes to get my hair cut here, and It is 100% worth it. I recommend Doug every chance I get. I have been to so many barbers, and yet no one has matched Doug’s cuts.

Have been going here consistently for about 2 years and I have always had an amazing experience. The shop is clean and organized, and theres always something good to watch on the TV if youre not talking with everyone else. Doug is one of the nicest people Ive met and a fantastic Barber. He has always given the style I was wanting to do.

1st time wont be the last time. Straight razor on the neck, hot towel. Great cut. And the conversation was even better.

I’ve known Doug and Dakota for years. Dakota recently cut my 2 year old sons hair and did a perfect job. He catered to my son, took his time and even put Paw Patrol on the shop tv to help calm him. The shop has a great atmosphere and was very clean. This is the only barbershop I plan on taking my son to.

Doug was the only person I would get a cut from in the Newark/Heath/Granville area. He’s honest and hard working, does amazing work, and gives you a genuine interaction every time. I would recommend this shop to anyone!

Dakota is the best I love his work and attitude. 11/10 recommend. Love you Dakota 😍

Went there when visiting my in-laws in Newark. Great Hair cut, great conversation, and he gave me and both of my boys a true barber shop cut !! My sons were delighted. I Will be back next time I need a cut in Newark. Great Classic barber shop.

Doug cut my Husbands hair the day before our wedding and my husband was so happy with the cut! In all of our wedding pictures he has the best hair cut of his life. If we lived in the area he would definitely be a regular! Thanks Doug!

Ive been getting my haircut by Dakota for over 2 years now. He takes his time to make sure you leave with a great cut every time. Doug is great as well, and keeps the shop very clean and the atmosphere laid back, and friendly.Best shop in town!

As a military man, the military community in general, is very picky about their cuts. Doug and Dakota are the only barbers myself, and many others in the community. trust with our looks. More than just your average shop. Great cuts, great conversation, and a great experience all the way around.

Doug and Dakota are great barbers 💈 who are passionate about their work. The atmosphere is comfortable, the conversation is great and the quality of their work is phenomenal! I’d recommend in a heartbeat - in fact I do, whenever I get the opportunity!⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

I have been a client of Doug’s for over a year. Before he started cutting my hair I almost never liked the way my hair looked. Now I couldn’t be happier. Out of his hundreds of repeat clients he remembers me, he makes an effort to know me, and he always talks with all clients as if they were lifelong friends. Doug is a master barber and an even better businessman. He is sincere and real, and he would never mistreat any client. Get your hair cut at Doug’s you will not regret it.

Doug is the man. Always gives the best cuts, best customer service, best all around experience. I always leave the shop looking good and feeling good. Keep up the good work Doug!

Doug does great work and pays attention to detail. Took my sons beard from being a crazy mess to very sharp. I definitely recommend this barber!

Really cool shop and great cut. Doug and Dakota were very welcoming and interesting conversation. Classic barbershop feel and experience. Highly recommend.

Doug is by far the best barber I’ve been to. He takes his time and always leaves me looking good. He’s always chatting with you so there is never awkward silence, which is very nice. If I had more free time it is a place I would go even if I didn’t need a cut just to hang out. 100% recommend DCB.

This dude is a legit stud. Incredibly nice and authentic, and wickedly talented. A true craftsman who is always working on improving his craft.

Went in for a cut today, and it did not disappoint! I love the treatment you get there, and Doug and Dakota are freaking awesome!

Doug and Dakota both do great jobs. Been going to them for years. Professional, clean, atmosphere. And all around great gents.

First time there today. Went in looking like I was homeless came out looking like a billion bucks. Walk in was quick. Grear job guys. You have my patronage from now on.

My husband always leaves very happy with his haircuts by Doug. Doug is very talented and has a true passion to get to know his clients. What a great barber we have in the area!!!

Best shop around! Superb service, awesome atmosphere and the regulars are pretty great. I should know I’ve been going for 4 years. HA!

I have been going to Doug since he was in barber school. Stand up guy who goes the extra mile for his clients. I live in Cleveland and I go to him when I come to town to visit my family. Cut my hair for my wedding just the way I wanted it.

Doug is a wonderful Barber and a genuine person. He has a great personality and you can hold a conversation just about anything with him.

This is a very talented and Godly barber right here. He is extremely professional and laid back at the same time. My boyfriend absolutely loves going to him. If you want a very talented and respectable barber Doug Cross is your man.

Excellent mens barber shop with professional service. Beard care products offered as well.

OMG I JUST WANT TO SAY HOW AMAZING DOUG IS. HE IS THE ONLY BARBER IN NEWARK THAT REALLY CARES ABOUT THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY. WOW WHAT AN AMAZING HAIRCUT HE GAVE TO ME AND MY HUSBAND! GREAT CONVERSATIONS AS WELL. THANK YOU SO MUCH DOUG. YOURE THE BEST!!

Doug is great! Always gives a fresh cut and the experience is laid back and fun. Great guy, great cuts, and I always get the cut Im looking for. One of the best!

Best barber in town. Cant go wrong. I and both of my boys have been going to Doug for several years and never had or seen anyone who has had a bad experience. We always come out with a nice fresh cut and share some great stories. I see a few bad reviews from people who have never left any other review. I hope people that look at these realize the trolling going on and only pay attention to those of us who leave actual and honest reviews. The barber market has become very saturated in the area recently. Probably just an attempt at sabotage.

These guys are great! I could spend the day hanging out with these fine men!

Doug has cut my sons hair and has never disappointed best barber around, also a very nice and genuine person his wife and him are the sweetest !

I dont typically leave reviews but after I witnessed this barber get mad at a client and intentionally ruined this guys haircut I got up and just took my son and left. Thats just a mean thing to do to someone who was trying to pay you for a service. Anger management issues at that barbershop.

My husband has been getting his hair cut by Doug for a few years and each time we are so pleased! Doug is fantastic!

One of the nicest guys you will ever meet and to top it off, the man can cut some good hair.

Doug does an incredible job at cutting hair. Once you get a haircut from him you will look no where else. He has been my barber for years.

Doug is the best. He does awesome haircuts, and hes great with kids. I drive 45 minutes to get cuts from him. Worth it!

Great atmosphere.Great people.Amazing haircuts.

Really great guy and does a great job with giving you what you want and keeps you intertained the whole time

Best in town! Never have had a bad haircut or experience at this shop! Doug and his team are amazing!!!!

Love this guy so much. Helped me find my style and really knew what would go well with my face/head shape.

Really great with kids. Cuts hair really well and clean shop very roomy

Super nice place. Great cuts

Amazing shop, amazing cuts and friendly environment. It doesnt get better than DCBS

Great dude that does amazing cuts .....really knows his stuff and makes your experience awesome

Didnt really listen to what I wanted. Freelanced the entire time. He also acted really smug towards me as if I was not welcome in the barbershop. He also made a few rude comments. I wont be doing business here ever again.

I want to say this is a real review!!! 100% LEGIT. This guy can not fade hair consistently at all. And if you have a beard please dont ask him to line it up. He ruined me and my friends haircut.

Freshest haircut in town! Hot towel, straight blade, the whole nine yards!

Awesome haircut, super nice guys.

I wish found this place years ago. They go the extra mile for you. I’m very picky and would give these guys 10 stars.

Dakota is the best around!!!

This Barber Doug is Terrible. He will contact the server to have bad reviews taken off. He really is a horrible barber.
