I just moved to Pittsburgh and hoped I could find a nice place where I could become a regular, while I thought this would take a couple of tries I completely lucked out with Enricos. Enrico is meticulous in every good sense of the word, his attention to detail in a cut is incredible and the quickness of it is incomparable. It is quite difficult to imagine that quick cut could be so good, but trust me when I tell you, Enrico somehow pulls it off.My favorite part of the visit was when he showed me his custom designed pair of scissors. The mere fact that he enjoys his job enough to design, prototype, and then produce hes own invention shows you how good a cut youre going to get.If youre wondering whether you should go here.... stop wondering and go get a darn good hair cut!
Best haircut Ive gotten in years, highly skilled. I would definitely reccomend.
I’ve been going to Enrico’s for the past 3 years and have always been met with kindness, professionalism, and an overall great experience! Thank you Enrico for everything you do!
Enrico is warm and interesting, having varied hobbies and interests. He is also extremely detail oriented and meticulous, while being highly efficient. Remarkably, he manages to talk smoothly through the whole process.Would highly recommend and he’ll be my barber for the rest of my time at Pittsburgh.
Enrico is extremely professional, organized, welcoming and personable. I normally never speak with the barber but Enrico has a warm, inviting energy that makes conversation very relaxed and pleasant. He is meticulously organized and clearly has great pride in his work. He even is constantly innovating - ask him about his scissors/comb confection or his 3D-printed clipper guard - what other barbers are constantly brainstorming like this? Perhaps most importantly, he gives a clean, fast and excellent haircut. Easily one of the best haircut experiences Ive had - highly recommended!
Enrico is the best! I’ve been going here for many years. Always a great cut.
Enrico is the best. Ive been a customer for years and recommend him highly. Due to C19, Ive not used him for a few months, but decided that with all the zoom I do, I cant afford to use family for hair cuts any longer and came back. To my great delight, Enrico really wants to keep his business safe for his customers and himself. I watched how he cleaned down the place before and after he cut my hair today. I dont give compliments easily...Enrico is the real deal. Jack M.
Professional and clean haircut for a very reasonable price.Also great conversation.
I have been going to Enrico for over seven years now and havent had a bad haircut the entire time. He is friendly, professional, and on time. He is excellent at what he does, and it is always an enjoyable experience. Even after moving out of Oakland, I still continue to make the drive in when I need a haircut. I would highly recommend this place
Excellent haircut spot! Enrico is incredibly friendly and kind, and gives a killer haircut. Wish I had started going to him sooner!
Enrico is a great guy. Good conversation with a good cut
Enrico keeps this place really clean to ensure that his customers are safe. His cuts are always consistent and well-priced! Definitely give this place a try especially if youre concerned about the cleanliness of other barber shops. You wont be disappointed!
I highly recommend! Enrico offered top notch customer service and he gave me one of the best haircuts I’ve had in years. It was my first time going there and I’ll definitely be back.
I am pretty particular about my hair so I was nervous to give him a try. However after today I could not be happier I gave him a shot. He was very careful and meticulous about getting every detail right, double even triple checking which i greatly appreciated. In addition his shop is very clean and he was very friendly. I plan to come again.
Enrico is a very nice guy who gives a great haircut! I just moved here for school and saw that he is very highly favored in the Pitt community so I figured I would give him a shot and I’m definitely not disappointed! Go here if you need a haircut!
It was my first time getting a haircut from Enrico and I was more than impressed. He was extremely professional and very attentive with my cut, making my hair look exactly how I had hoped! I’ve spent almost 5 years looking for a top notch barber who will do a great job consistently and I am happy to say I will not be seeing anyone except Enrico when it comes to my hair from now on. Do yourself a favor and get yourself scheduled! (I’d like to add the pictures soon but I’m unable to at this time. Just trust me!)
Top notch haircutting, highly recommended!!
Enrico was one of the better barbers I have come across. I called and he fit me in the same day. He was swift but extremely detailed and made sure I liked every aspect of the haircut. Great conversation and an overall awesome experience, I will certainly be returning.
Enrico’s a great guy and gave a killer cut. He’s very easy to talk to and a cool guy. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable barber in the pgh area!
First time going to Enrico for a cut. He did a great job and the cleanliness of his shop is impressive. I would definitely recommend to a friend to try his place out! Ill be going back as a regular customer.
Enrico is a lovely man who really cares about getting the job done right. I left there with an incredible looking cut and a feeling of peace. I will never go anywhere else in Pittsburgh for a haircut.
I LOVE this place, Enrico is the guy. Just be aware he does not do beard trims at this time.
Enrico has 50 years experience, very skilled and personable. He really worked with me to find the cut I was looking for and it turned out much better than I had hoped. Will definitely be coming back!
I highly recommend Enrico for any man in need of a great haircut and good conversation
I was able to get in on short notice and was given a great haircut. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a barber around Oakland
Without a doubt the best haircut I’ve ever gotten. First time going to a barber and I’m definitely staying with this one. I can tell he is passionate about styling hair and it really shows!
Friendly and efficient service, would recommend for people looking for a good cut with a personal touch
Did a great job and was extra careful with sanitizing the place down before/after the haircut. Highly recommend it!
Best cut in Pittsburgh! I schedule my day around an appointment and would not miss it.
Went to Enricos for a cut and trim merely days before my wedding. My now wife insisted I step up from the usual chain stores. I made an appointment and Enrico welcomed me when I showed up. Yes, its a one man operation so you may have to wait longer than anticipated, but you do get his undivided attention when its your turn. He did a great job. At the time, he only accepted cash, but his pricing was fair. I fully intend to return.
Great service, great cut! Enrico is really friendly!
Love this barber. Clean and friendly!
Best haircut place in Oakland! Ive been to at least 5 barbers in Pittsburgh and Enrico is the best of them. The haircuts themselves are great. He takes pride in his work and really wants you to have a good experience. The atmosphere is SO relaxing. He regularly has jazz/classical music playing, the seating comes from old muscle cars, and the Italian artwork culminates to create a truly unique experience. Cash only. No walk ins, but he is normally very accommodating for appointments. Cant say enough about this place.
Hands down, the best hair cut in Pittsburgh. Enrico has been cutting hair for over 50 years and is the absolute master of his craft. Meticulous technique and a full line of hair care products. If you want your hair cut right, do yourself a favor, go to Enricos!
Got a haircut on the same day I called! On time, very clean (following all procedures regarding corona-virus), and I got an awesome haircut!
Great place to get a haircut. Enrico is also really friendly and a nice guy. Waaaaay better than sports clips or super cuts
He cuts hair like the professional he is. It’s an art that he has mastered! Definitely recommend him.Ps- do remember to bring in cash.
Enrico is a really nice guy who gives good haircuts and even better conversation. 5 stars would recommend.
Ive been going to Enrico since 2012, and I hope the man never retires. Even when I moved to NYC for a few years, and I would do my best to save my cut until I visited Pittsburgh next. Easy to talk to, really listens to how you are trying to create your style. Doesnt waste your time -- 15-20 minutes and youre good to go. Great cut, great guy, and I honestly cant recommend him highly enough
Never fails to deliver a great hair cutting experience for me. I have heard that getting a nice and neat hair cut for Asian men is so difficult in the US but Enrico absolutely knows how to deal with Asian men’s hair. Nice, friendly and the location is easily accessible. If you are looking for a nice haircut at a reasonable price, he is the one.
When I first came to Pitt freshman year, I would always just go to the nearest Great Clips or Supercuts or whatever. After getting butchered one too many times, a friend recommended Enrico... and as long as I live in Pittsburgh, I wouldn’t dare go to another barber. Enrico gives the highest quality, most consistent cuts at a very reasonable price. Definitely give my man a shot, you won’t regret it.
A great barber who cares about his clients, their satisfaction, and the results he gives. He gave me a great cut, and was very attentive to what I wanted despite being busy. I will definitely be returning.
My man Enrico is a very reasonable, kind, and courteous person. He delivers great haircuts and I always talk to him about his inventions and patents that hes currently working on. Any negative reviews you see are most likely because the customer was being unreasonable or impatient. He can run a little late sometimes, but its always worth the wait. If you have any doubts, dont. Hes the finest barber in town.
You wont be disappointed if you go here for a haircut. The care and attention to detail you get while sitting in the chair is amazing. Enrico is super nice and truly cares about his craft which is hard to come by. If you are looking for a barber, look no further than Enricos
I went to Enricos for the first time today, and I can honestly say that I will not even consider going to any other place in Pittsburgh to get my hair cut. My experience was fantastic. Unassumingly nestled within a row of buildings along Fifth Ave, Enricos is a real diamond in the rough of hair stylists. The atmosphere of the place is quiet and relaxed; Enrico is extremely affable, and knows exactly what he is doing. His outstanding results are solid evidence of his 35 years as a barber. He took the time to understand the exact kind of haircut I wanted and then adroitly and pleasantly gave it to me. In addition to receiving a haircut, I asked him for some advice in regards to caring for/styling my specific type of hair, and he provided me with a number of very helpful and practical tips. The quality of my haircut was excellent: efficiently and expertly done, with attention to detail. In light of the superior quality of Enricos haircuts and styling, $18 plus a tip is not only very reasonable, but a bargain price. I will look forward to coming back in a few weeks time to the #1 haircutting place in Pittsburgh.
Enrico will do everything he can to fit you in, if he cant, make an appointment to come in when you can. His cuts are always exactly what you want amd he does an awesome job even if you only describe what you want or bring in a picture. Its always worth the wait.
I’ve been getting my hair cut by Enrico for 30+ yearsHe approaches each customer as an individual & wants to know what the particular wants & needs of that person are before he starts cuttingHe asks customers very appropriate questions & he listens very well to their answersIf you’re looking for suggestions or feedback then he will provide those as wellIn addition to giving great haircuts he’s very personable & has a great sense of humor
Enricos is an Oakland establishment and Enrico himself is a legend. Hes great at his craft and will work you into his schedule as soon as possible. I would recommend Enricos to anyone who wants a quality haircut.
Awesome efficient haircut. Enrico has done this for over 39 years and it shows. He is a master and anyone who complains about him being curt on the phone or slow merely lacks patience .This guy is the real deal. Love him. Bring my son to him. People drive in from hundreds of miles away just to get a haircut!
I havent gotten a haircut anywhere else since he first cut my hair a dozen years ago. Great cuts and friendly.
After a very bad experience at another shop I was referred to Enrico by a friend. Enrico accommodated me on the same day I called, and fixed the mistakes of the previous stylist in less than 15 minutes. He understood what I was looking for and was very friendly, taking extra care to ensure I was satisfied. I am very happy with the results and am glad I found Enrico. I will definitely be back!
I was recommended by a friend to go to enrico’s and I’m very glad I made the smart decision to go. Enrico is a very nice guy and he really makes clean haircuts. I’m very happy with how he cut my hair and I will be recommending him to everyone.
Bottom line: Rushed, sloppy haircut with customer insensitivity to boot.My first visit, and I really wanted to like Enrico - I prefer old school barbers over chain salons. But this was a poor hair cutting experience.I came here because the majority of Google reviews were fantastic. But my experience was similar to the other guy with the negative review in here.•1) I had hair everywhere. Shirt, neck, and even noticeable clumps on my face. Good thing I didn’t have to return to work.•2) No neck shave - he didn’t even offer. And with that, the hairline on the back of my neck was cut uneven.•3) Parts of my hairline were left untrimmed, and my top was left too long. I provided a couple of pics of what I had in mind, but it was like Enrico just went into autopilot and whipped me through. Without exaggeration, Enrico actually spent more time blow drying my hair than cutting it with scissors.One funny thing that I think goes along with a previous reviewer’s statement about an awkward atmosphere there. When I handed Enrico his “cash only” payment, he held up my $20 bill to the overhead light to see if it was counterfeit! And he did this in front of all the other patrons I had just been pleasantly conversing with. Mind you, I didn’t stroll in reeking of weed, wearing flip-flops, and smoking a vape pen. I was well-groomed, professionally dressed, and even made small talk while he cut my hair. I couldn’t help but laugh out loud and say, “Yeah, it’s American”, as he stood there looking like a homeless man at the stoplight suspiciously checking his cash for fakes.
I’ve been going to Enricos for over two years now and never had a bad cut before. Very professional, listens to my preferences and always has great recommendations on what to do with your hair. Great conversation and overall great person. Love going to Enrico’s.
Great quality cuts, very expedient, great price
I’ve been going to Enrico for years. He always does a great job, is a professional and friendly barber and charges fair prices. If you need a cut in Pittsburgh, call up Enrico!
After my barber of 18 years closed because of an illness, I had to find a new place to get a haircut. After such a long time with the same barber, finding and trusting someone to cut your hair can be a nerve racking experience. Fortunately, Enrico’s is two doors from where I work. After reading the reviews here, I gave him a shot and am extremely happy I did.I think Enrico could tell I was a bit nervous because he really took the time to ask me how my old barber cut my hair. Instead of just finishing the job quickly, he stopped several times and asked if he was cutting it correctly. I really appreciated this and quickly was at ease. My haircut turned out fantastic and I will definitely be back.If you’re looking for a new barber, do not hesitate to go to Enrico, he really knows what he is doing.
Ive been going to Enricos for a few years now, and there has not been a single time where I havent been delighted by the quality haircuts he gives. Notably, he tried something he called the Fusion taper which drew a lot of compliments. Highly recommend!
Enrico is okay. He is nice, and makes an effort to have a good atmosphere and his price is reasonable, but the fact is that he believes he is always right, and his cockiness gets in the way of getting a quality haircut. I showed him two pictures of my short hair, and he said okay, but he didnt go as short as I wanted to because it looked better in his way. I was not pleased. If you have simple hair, hes great. But for long and complicated hair, you can do better. You wont come out with mangled hair, but Im sure there are better haircuts in Pittsburgh. Maybe the best in Oakland, but not in the city.
I have gone to many places during my time in Pittsburgh, however Enrico without a doubt does the finest job of anyone that I have ever gone to. The atmosphere in his shop is very comfortable, and he always does a great job of efficiently moving from client to client during the day. Enrico always knows what styles are currently in, and does an awesome job of giving the client a cut that will look great and give you the confidence that you need.
AWESOME PLACE! In town for business, trusted others reviews and really had a great experience! Local guy, cutting hair since late 60s... invented his own comb/scissor combination... really great experience overall, highly recommend!
Great haircuts done quickly and professionally! Usually quite busy but can generally find time for another cut so call ahead for an appointment. Cash only, around 20 dollars for a cut, and only takes 10-20 minutes; highly recommended!
Since I came to the barbershop I felt really confortable. Enrico has a very nice treat to his clients. He has more than 20 years of experience. Im very satisfied with my haircut. I paid $20 for it.
Great guy, and very funny. He gives great haircuts and can do it quickly. However, be prepared to make an appointment, and also be prepared to wait, because hes very busy and its only him. If you can manage to get in the door and get a seat in the chair, youll have a great cut, no doubt.
Ive been going to Enrico for nearly 20 years, and in that time, Ive seen him handle haircuts from the simple (like mine) to the complex with ease. I wouldnt even consider going anywhere else.Like other posters have said, Enrico can get busy at times, and people who have appointments will always have priority over walk-ins, so please do schedule an appointment instead of just walking in.
Great haircut and very friendly atmosphere. Also right down the street from Pitt which is a big plus.
Great cut, great guy, great price.
Excellent--I wont go anywhere else!! I started as a steady customer of Enricos father, Enrico Sr., many many years ago,and just continued with his son, Enrico till the present!!Enrico (Jr) is excellent--very busy with the university crowd in Oakland--be certain to call ahead to nail down appt. time; he knows what hes doing!!Charlie Aston
Got a haircut scheduled for the next day, quick yet great service honestly one of the best haircuts Ive gotten. Will be going back
First time at Enricos. Got a quick and professional cut and am very satisfied. The atmosphere at his shop was nice. A thing to note: he accepts cash only.
I called Enrico and he was able to schedule me almost immediately, despite being clearly busy. He did a great job and styled my cowlick that has been plaguing me for 24 years with ease. Price is right...definitely going back.
Great haircut experience! I have thinning hair and despite that thinning hair, Enrico gave me an awesome haircut and that too very quickly. I feel the hair at the top of my head couldve been cut slightly better, but overall he did great!
Not bad! First time coming here. definitely gave him a different kind of cut to try out and pulled it off pretty good! Will be back when Im In Pitt!
He cut my hair poorly and charged extra for it. Enrico is the only guy working there no assistance no helpers he is inconsistent and rushed my hair cutting he finished in about 10 minutes and charge me extra for a thing he called texturing. Which was basically him giving me layers except with a straight razor.He also left one side of my hair longer than the other and left two long pieces of hair behind my ears. He is kind of a weird guy and thinks he is a big deal. But when I went to cost cutters to get my next haircut they said that he did a bad job and there was all kinds of uneven and weird cuts. Basically the only thing that he did was cut off the back of my hair because I said I wanted it a little bit shorter otherwise he just messed it up and charge me $25 for it.I would not recommend going hear you’re better off going to cost cutters or if you’re looking for a higher-quality cut maybe look for some other better local barbers in the area.
Very good experience there. Definitely keeps busy so if a first time customer, maybe call ahead and make a reservation but its just evidence of his good work. My wife was very pleased with the result and will be a return customer.
I would like to say that the owner is a very friendly and sociable fellow. He has many fun tales to tell and the service is superb. Also, the haircut its self looked more well done with every patch of unruly hair timed better than any service I have had at the cheepo barbers. I am from out of town but I have made a friend here and will be back.
I had been having my haircut by the same person for 12 years. Last year I moved to Pittsburgh for school and I got a haircut at several places in town but couldnt find anyone that offers the level of quality and service provided by Enrico. He took his time and asked questions to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. He even went back over a few spots because I was not happy with the length the first time. Definitely going back!
Enrico gives fast (~10 min), reasonable haircuts. But totally disregards his customers schedules and his own calendar. Most recently I made an appointment a day in advance and arrived on time only to find 4 people waiting ahead of me. I had business at nearby Magee Hospital so we agreed that I would pick up my package and return in 25 minutes which I did to find again that now 2 new people had been substituted in front. Dealing with this shop has always been a hassle with inconvenient scheduling times, long waits, and cavalier treatment but this was the last straw. Enricos hair cuts are really a commodity thing that you can get at most any barber shop without being jerked around. I wont return and if you have any self respect or appointments on your own schedule you wont go there either.
Great guy. Great cuts. Always gets it right
As a foreigner, often times getting a haircut is fairly difficult for me, because many barbers do not know what exactly I am looking for due to communication problems. Surprisingly, Enricos Hair cutting did a great job. The barber always talk back and forth as he carefully cut my hair. Having been here for four years now, Enricos Hair Cut never lets me down. Keep it up!
Ive been getting horrible haircuts for the last few years thinking it was just me having bad hair. Enrico made me feel incredible with what he did for my hair. I cant stop looking in mirrors. Cannot recommend enough.
A nice place to do a clean hair cut the old fashion way. Nothing more, nothing less.
I think this is one of my very first 1-star reviews, but this place definitively deserves it. 1. Super disrespectful when I called to arrange an appointment. I still went because people told me the quality was good... But then 2. The cut was horrible, and I usually do it in supercuts, so its not like I expected much either... I had to eventually go to a 2nd place (which Ill not mention where as its irrelevant to this review) to fix it...
Best haircut of my life in 10 minutes. Definitely going back there everytime I need a haircut!
1st time customer today, his cut was super fast and as high of quality as anyone in the city. If you are in Oakland, he is the best cut by a long shot.
Excellent, Enrico is the most consistent barber I have ever been to. He combines a friendly atmosphere with a fantastic haircut. Wish I could give him 6 stars.
I went to college nearby. And for the past 4 years, I have been a regular, recommending to many of my friends. Definitely my favorite barber shop in Pittsburgh!
The best experience I ever have in Pittsburgh. Im a Pitt student and looking for a good place for asian hair. Professional skill and reasonable price, highly recommended, will be back.
I have been coming to Enrico for almost 5 years now. 100% satisfied with every hair cut. If your looking for a good hair cut in Pittsburgh, Enrico is your man!
I’ve been a regular customer of Enrico for almost 20 years. In fact, even though I no longer live or work in Oakland, I still drive in to get my hair cut by Enrico. There is no finer place in Pittsburgh for a man to get a haircut. I do recommend calling for an appointment. I’m far from the only one who recognizes the superiority of Enrico’s services, and he can get very busy at times. Please make the effort and call ahead. You will regret going anywhere else.
Good guy good cut.
Ive been a regular at Enricos for some time now and have never been let down. Every haircut has been perfect, and I couldnt imagine going to a different shop. If you want to skip the excruciatingly long waits, rude stylists, and eucalyptus-scented towels Enricos is the place to go.
I go to school in NC; went to Enricos while visiting my brother in Pitt. Phenomenal job, best haircut Ive ever had. Fast and fantastic. Would fly to Pitt solely for Enrico if I could afford it!
Enrico is very personable and nice. Better yet, he gave a killer haircut ! Highly recommend Enricos.
Enrico is very friendly and does a great job. He is my go-to barber in Pittsburgh. Call to make an appointment!Expect about $20 for a regular haircut, plus tip.
Enrico is the only barber Ive gone to in Pittsburgh, and the only barber I ever will go to. Hes also the only barber that gives me a perfect and consistent haircut every time. Not only is he very skilled at cutting hair, but the haircuts are generally very quick.
