Always prompt, courteous, sociable and most critically: great barbers. I see one or two reviews of unfortunate haircut experiences here. I have yet to get anything less than a great cut here. I hope those that have had a bad cut will give it another chance. Tough to beat IMHO!
The barber was very sociable, but gave me the worst haircut. It was uneven with clumps of hair sticking out everywhere. This is the first time and the last time I will use this barber.
Amazing barber shop. Customer service is great. They cut kids and adults any style. The owner, Milad, is fantastic and works in this location and his other location several days per week.
Quick, dependable and professional service. Good pandemic safety protocols.
These guys are the best. Excellent cuts, nice guys, affordable mens haircut. Appointments can be scheduled online, and they accept walk ins as well. Best place to get a trim in Newton!
One of the best haircuts I have had. Most of the time people have trouble cutting my curly hair.
Great service with friendly people
Anas is a great barber with a lot of skill. Ive been seeing him since they opened this location and I highly recommend him
Awesome place. Always great customer service and the barbers are hilarious.
Its my 3rd time here. Happy with my haircut every time. Its my new spot! Guys are nice. Theyre quick too but good attention to details. Place is clean too.
Hands down the best barber shop in Massachusetts! I’ve been taking both of my sons there for a few years, driving 40 minutes each way. Aside from giving the best haircuts, the owner and his staff is fantastic with kids! So kind, patient and treat you like family. The salon is clean, the wait is never more than 15 minutes and plenty of coffee shops next door and across the street where you can grab a coffee or a snack while you wait.
Quick, easy, and reliable. Anas is my go to barber here, very professional and always a good haircut.
This is the best barbershop for men in Newton. Great haircut and perfect shave / beard trim for a very reasonable price. Anas listens to what you want and takes his time for it to be perfect. Very professional yet laid back. Highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to look sharp.
Horrible Horrible Place barber does not know what he is doing and does not follow the wishes of the customer. Do not go here
I went there for the first time . its clear there not same barbers said to be there for over 20 years. it seemed ok and i mentioned few things that i wanted done ok just used sheers mostly the left side my head from front to back over my ear(left ear) looks bald looks like i was scalped if so both sides should match left right sides i didnt notice it more untill i got home later and looked closer . its cut down to the scalp i could not see it all while getting this louzy hair cut-- i wont be back there located in newtonville on walnut st. thank god the right side didnt get clipped bald it looks like a freak show that hair cut i got--
The place smells bad and the young barber looks like doesnt have enough experience. I want to advise everyone in the area.
Sal’s is the best barber shoppe west of Boston. Anas always takes great care of me and provides excellent haircuts and beard trims. He is my automatic go-to when there’s a special event, job interview, or wedding. Sal’s is the place to go!
Nice and awesome service. I got and outstanding cut at a reasonable price. The location is fantastic. Recommended.
Walked in around 4:30PM and 5 other people walked in after me. He took roughly 40 minutes on the guy before me, and must have wanted to rush through everyone so he wouldn’t have to stay late, because he didn’t listen to anything I said and only spent roughly 15 minutes on me. Asked him to use the scissors on the top, he didn’t. Asked him to fade near the top, he didn’t. Then when I asked him to go higher, he went far too high. Would not recommend this place.
You will get the best haircut in town for a very reasonable price. Amazing place with amazing hosts.
The best barbershop in Boston.
Popped in and he was just finishing with another client. It had really been awhile since my last cut but he effortlessly brought things into submission in short order. The straight shave on the neck was a nice touch and really helped give a clean look to the back of my head. Fast, no nonsense, looks great, and under $20! 5 stars for sure!
A sharp haircut for a square price. The barbers are all incredible professionals; they know their stuff. I will definitely be back there soon.
Came here based on these reviews. Will say I was not disappointed! Great price and an even better cut. Faded up from a 2 on the sides and a little longer on top blended perfectly! It was a longer drive from home than I anticipated but I will be back!
Been coming to this barbershop for a couple of years now and Annas always gives me really good fades. Definitely wouldn’t change them for any other barbershop. The price is always been low for the quality of service.
Ever since I moved to Newton, this is the only barbershop I go. Its cheap, fast and friendly. They are all very good and will give a clean cut. They will even stylized to what you have asked them. Got my haircut here before the wedding too.
Anas is my guy but every barber gives a great haircut. Clean, fast, reliable, fair priced. Checks all the boxes.
Sal’s barber shop rules.
Great guys who give great haircuts. Terrific for all ages, young and old. Come early morning or mid day during the week to avoid long lines on Saturdays and after work hours (open till 6pm)
Great place. Great guys. Very clean been coming here for years highly recommended for a perfect hair cut
My first time going to Sal’s. Anas was my barber and he was great. Very quick and extremely talented. Anas is a true professional! I will be back for my next cut. On top of that you can’t beat the price! Thanks Anas.
+great place for walk ins+fast service+reasonable prices-I should have gone shorter in beard length like Sal recommended!!
Great haircut! Stopped in early on a Tuesday and sat right down. Great cut, neck shave and even an eyebrow trim! My son also came a few weeks back and got a great haircut as well. And very, very good value compared to other overpriced mens barbers in the area.
Extremely fast service. I was in and out in about 15 minutes and definitely once of the best haircuts Ive had in the area. Highly recommend it considering the prices are very reasonable.
When I walked into Sals for the first time my expectations were instantly raised when I saw my future barber, who sported a stylish combination of a well trimmed beard coupled with perfectly quaffed hair. When he began his work I could tell this man was a professional. For less than I would pay at other barbers in Newton, he not only gave me the best haircut I have ever received, but he also trimmed by beard and neck with a straight razor. Having experienced the unparalleled service of Sals barber shop I can say without doubt that Sals is nothing short of the finest barber in the Boston area.
Their cuts are awesome. The staff is fantastic. The atmosphere was fantastic. Recommended.
Awesome barber for men and boys. Its not always easy to find a quality barber in amongst the unisex salons and low cost hair-salons, but this is a place you should definitely check out. Reasonably priced and great quality.
Just went to Sals for first time. Excellent, and the price is right. Clean shop. Barber (owner) was very professional and friendly. Haircut was best Ive gotten in a long time. Five stars. Couldnt be better.
Barber was very precise and efficient and I could tell he has been giving haircuts and beard trimmings for many years. Not much of a wait and he took time to make sure he got it right. Would recommend.
Anas is the best barber in Boston. Great haircuts, beard trims and just a great experience overall. Highly recommend him and all of the barbers at Sals!
Great Barbershop!!!! Clean and very friendly. Got there and was met by the owner and had a great conversation and hair cut for a good price. I will definitely be back again and think i have found my barbershop to got to every time i need a hair cut.
Great place, nice staff and good fast haircuts 10/10
Excellent barber for gentlemen and all others. Professional and courteous service. Highly recommended!
Fair price. Good skill. Friendly service. Make appointment unless you want to wait on the weekend.
Best barbershop around! Anas haircuts are the best in Boston and for a great price! Cannot be beat!
I’ve come here 5 times and only twice have they gotten my request right I ask for short on the sides and longer but on top and there’s one guy who takes that as cut everything off on top and they never ask as they’re cutting they just cut it off and try to get to the next person the back of my hair is off and I gotta say for the price it’s at 19 with a 5 dollar dip which I gave anyway despite the bad service the haircuts are average and there are way better deals with places that put more time as effort into good haircuts this is just my opinion though waste your money if you want.
They rushed the cut and never asked how you wanted it done. Then they scooted my 5 year old off the chair and got the next guy in. It didnt even look like he got a haircut. I asked to cut it shorter and he was shocked. I asked for a #1 shortness and he disagreed saying that is too short... Thats when I agreed to anything shorter than what it was and to never go back.
The best of the best. You truly cant beat these Guys work. We love them and have followed them from JP to Newton.
I havent looked this good in years. Once I let them trim my beard, it transformed me and my wife was VERY happy.
Recently I came to Sals barber shop and received a very rough and unsatisfying haircut which was not what I hoped for. Some of the staff here are actually super nice and I have been coming to this place for years (since it arrived in newton). However, this time I received a rude and unfamiliar barber who literally lost patience with me the second I walked through the door. He consistently reacted to me in a rude manner when I told him my preferences (EXCUSE ME I AM PAYING MONEY FOR THIS). He also kept giving me rude signals throughout my time here. In the end, I received a borderline disgraceful haircut and I will not be returning back even for freefand for sure considering the price I paid . Do not come here! Dont say I didnt warn you!
They were fighting while i was there and made me wait until their argument was over. Always rude when i go in. Keep in mind ive been there a good amount of times (5+) They cut well if you tell them what to do and they usually have an attitude about it. Ridiculous. Go ahead and go there, but if they give you attitude put them in their place. Nobody should have to deal with that kind of pessimistic service.
Was in Massachusetts visiting from Texas. Checked reviews and they were accurate. Got an amazing cut!
One of the best haircut s Ive had in Boston. I think they were trying to get me back again as a repeat customer by giving me an outstanding cut
Amazing place, walked in here randomly about 3 weeks ago and now I wont go anywhere else. Great service, great price, and fast.
Very mediocre haircut for their price. Also borderline rude staff. I had the most unpleasant shave of my life.
Best barbershop in newton. Anas is a great barber!
Service A+Location A+Barber Skills A+My regular spot for a nice haircut!
I have been getting haircut by Milad ( the owner) for 20 years now.He is the best hair stylist ever, not just my opinion but everybody who i sent to him says the same thing.His haircuts are soooo good ! You use him once you are hooked for life
Great barber shop in Newtonville. The owner Milad is usually one of the only guys working there on Saturday when I get my haircut. Hes friendly, takes his time, and gives a great haircut. Along with the great haircut, Sals is a great value with a cut for less than $20. I cant recommend Milad and the other guys that work at Sals enough!
Great service, walk-in cuts.
I really like the environment there. The price is very reasonable!
Great haircut, friendly barbers, quick, clean. Cant ask for anything more! As long as Im in Newton area, this is where I will be going.
Still best place in town.
Great guys who give a great cut and hot shave. Expect long waits
Always a great cut, my new barber shop.
Great haircut, friendly service, clean atmosphere. Ill definitely be back!
Ive been getting my haircut here for over a year now, and the guys here have always been nothing but friendly and the service is quality. Great haircuts, cant find anyone else to do it better.
Price was very fair and these guys really know what theyre doing. I went there after seeing great reviews and I was not dissapointed.
Anas is terrific !
Rude guy told me I had to take a seat instead of putting my name on the wait list. Too bad you could’ve had a regular.
Great cut every time
Cash only clean cut
Always a good cut & very efficient.
Great place for haircut!
Best haircut Ive had in ages
Great haircut and excellent service!

Adel is the best barber in the Newton area
