First time visiting this place. Needed to get a professional beard trim on pretty short notice. They were able to book me the next morning and everything went great! Super clean. Nice guys. Fair price and a great cut! Will definitely be back, and make this my regular go-to!
I went to MC barber in Berlin CT and Esmir, one of the barbers there, hooked me up with a great haircut. The barbershop was clean and looked like a men’s salon! Esmir’s attention to detail during the haircut was outstanding! Thanks for a great experience!!
They don’t respect your time. Why make appointments if you can’t even honor them? I literally waited for 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment start time and watched 2 of the 3 guys walk out for lunch. I recommend going elsewhere if you value your time.
Ado is very friendly and takes great care when cutting hair. He takes his time and gives a sharp cut. Place is very nice and comfortable. My son loves going here.
Ado and MC Barber truly the best haircut I have ever had....now a loyal customer. Just had my 20 & 18 yr old son go now too.
Terrible service! If you are a few minutes late to your appointment they are super rude to you & won’t take you. Sometimes things happen and you can’t show up on time. Have some courtesy it wasn’t like I was 20 minutes late. No need to demean customers. Treat people the way you would like to be treated. I look forward to finding another barber that speaks to customers with understanding and respect. Perhaps you should consider a grace period instead of having people rushing for their lives to secure their appointments.
We love going here. The barbers are very professional and that is not always easy to come by. Very neat and clean especially during COVID. Haircuts are meticulous.
I love taking my son here for a haircut! The staff is always welcoming, prompt and accommodating. My son feels comfortable and looks forward to his fresh new haircut every time.
Use to go here all the time for my sons and husband because of their flawless work and professionalism.Today we were 5 mins late to our appointment and they took another client which is fine. My husband asked if he can wait and go after but the rude barber told my 11 yr old son and hubs he cant take my son today. My son was upset at his attitude towards them, saying he was rejected. They were unprofessional, uncourteous, and just straight up mean to a child.They lost 3 customers today.
Awesome haircut and awesome environment. Make sure you call I have only been once and was lucky to be there when they had a spot for walk in.Besides that the barbers are awesome and did a great job with a military fade to skin.
I got a regular mens haircut and Mergim hooked it up! So fresh, perfect fade, and helped give me a new brushed back hair shape that I havent had before. Ill definitely be going back a few days before my wedding for an extra fresh look
Great place for haircut & styling
Very impressed with this barbershop. I’m not from around here, so I was looking around for somewhere to get a haircut. This place had fairly good reviews so I hesitantly made an appointment. I’ve been getting my hair cut at the same place for more than a year so I was a little worried. MC Barbers exceeded my expectations. The barber was very meticulous and spent time making sure everything looked great. Highly recommended.
Another visit with MC today. Another FANTASTIC cutCant say enough good things about this guy and his staff. MC is an absolute master of his craft whose affordable, detail oriented work speaks for itself time and time again! Hes the Best barber in CT hands down in my opinion!
Best place around. You have to experience it!!
First time going here, will definitely be coming back. These guys are great! They take their time and it shows! If you want someone who actually cares about how your hair looks, then check this place out. I think they care more about how my hair looks than I do. Highly recommend.
This place is very professional...I got my haircut in the south end of Hartford for many years with nothing but inconsistency as far how my haircuts would come out, on top of really long wait times. MC’s shop is very professional...MC is a phenomenal barber and John is as well. I would highly recommend this place over any shop I’ve been to
Great service ✂️👨🍳✂️
Real barbershop, get a great cut from nice people at a reasonable price. I always get a better cut than supercuts. MC sets the standard for cutting hair and teaches in his own barber school.
MC barber is extremely skilled barber. A true master of his craft. I was lucky enough to take his 5 day course and cannot recommend him enough. He is incredible with fades, razor and scissor work, as well as styling. Great instructor, patient, calm, easy to get along with.His barbershop as well as his staff is very welcoming, no attitude, very professional.This is THE place to get a great cut, hands down the best barbershop in the area and beyond.
Esmir was easy to talk to while in the chair and my hair came out great. Definitely going back for the conversation and the great cut.
Got a haircut from emir he is really good
Mc really knows what he is doing. If you have any doubts about him go there and get your haircut from him you will not regret it.
My best haircut in years. Glad I finally tried them.
Outstanding shop! Went to Alberto last time. Great cut! All barbers give great cuts from what I can see. Wait time can be a little longer than you may be used to... But more than worth the wait, or make a specific appt with MC. Sunday convenience is great also.
Best haircut on the East Coast. Get a $250 haircut for far lesser.
Great place. Would recommend to everyone.
Ive been going to MC Barber for almost 15 years now and have never been let down by the quality of service delivered by MC or the employees at his establishment. MC continually strives to perfect his craft and raise the bar for his peers and under studies. Those who complain about timing issues or missed appointments need to consider that time is money. In my 15 years I have never had a missed appointment or my appointment moved because of an error by MC or his employees. MC and his employees take their craft seriously if you need any other verification walk into the shop and observe the constantly filled chairs, packed appointment log (for MC), filled trophy case and the cleanliness and professionalism demonstrated by everyone employed there.
The haircuts here are very nicely done with a lot of attention to detail. I waited here for over an hour before I left. Third person to walk out without a haircut. Even though I called before and was told it would only be a 10 minute wait.
We love this barber shop. MC is incredibly talented and so is Sam. Both my husband and son go here and always leave with a fresh, clean cut. They are personable and know what they are doing. Wont go anywhere else. If only I can get MC to cut womens hair ;)
Consistently great haircuts here. I go to Sam and have never been disappointed by the quality and timeliness. I have seen the other barbers do great jobs as well. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Alberto has my hair lookin... SO GOOD!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND coming here. It sucks that the lines are long but that just shows how good they ALL really are!!! DEFINITELY COME HERE⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
10/10 barbershop overall. Employees at MC take their time giving you a cut, making sure lines are perfect, and all ends/tapers meet the needs of the customer perfectly. The beard shape-ups and transitions are on point. If your looking for a perfect cut and walk in availability go to MC. No matter what cut your looking to get, Pedro @ MC can hook you up.
Sam does some of the best work Ive seen. Everything is so even. Cant get over it. Definitely my go to barber from now on!
It super clean and he takes good care of his costimures and no
Best haircut I have gotten. Barbers are very detailed and take time to give you a great haircut.
Best hair cut i’ve ever gotten and great customer services
God am I happy I found this place. Mc is a true master of his craft I love every haircut from him and everyone else is cool too can’t say enough good things about them
When I come from Virginia to visit my family I always make sure to stop by and get a haircut. I usually go to Sam because he is awesome. The other barbers seem great too.
Horrible customer service. Wait time is way too long even with appt. Mc always talks about himself and all his awards. Stop being conceited and just cut hair. Very unfair to his employees to.
Place is great, good ora! People super chill this is an appointment only place so make sure you call their are no more walk-ins thats why I gave it 4 stars but all the barbers are good
These guys are great. Went here after getting really bad cut nearby. They fixed everything and didnt even want to charge. Very impressed.
Im just writing to share an experience that I had at MCs shop last night. At 5 PM I call the shop to schedule an appointment with Alberto. The lady on the other end says that Alberto can take me in at 5:30 PM. I walk in at 5:30 sharp and say that I have an appt. with Alberto and suddenly, MC who was at the shop says that Alberto is running 30 minutes late. Surprised, I look at Alberto, who is cleaning his clippers & scissors from the 5:00 PM appt. (the person who walked out as I was walking in) and poor guy has nothing to say. The only other person waiting in the room was another customer (who apparently walked in b/w 5 & 5:30) and probably insisted on Alberto having his hair cut and hence having me to wait another 30 minutes for a 6 PM appt. I ask the lady who answered my phone what had changed in the last half hour that suddenly Alberto is running late that she did not know 30 minutes ago, and she is speechless knowing that she messed up the whole situation. This kind of UN-professionalism is symptomatic in MCs shop and I sincerely hope they get their act together. Peoples time is valuable and when you try to just sneak in another walk-in customer over a scheduled appt. you should have the courtesy to at least admit your mistake rather than lying that the barber (who was on schedule 30 mins ago) is running late. I am sure MC will come up with some kind of a reasoning for the whole incident and try to make it look all well in his response, but he knows the reality. I hope he takes measures to make these kind of things not happen again or he will be losing customers . For sure I am not going back there even though Alberto is a great barber. (Sorry Alberto).
Stopped by here on a Sunday since most other places are closed. Cuts are $22 which is pretty expensive for a mens haircut and they only take cash. The main guy is apparently a hotshot barber (bunch of awards in the window) but you only get him if you call ahead and make an appointment. The young guy I got was very thorough and this ended up being one of the longest hair cuts Ive ever had. The TV was playing YouTube clips so dont expect to watch the game if its on. Would probably come here again but nothing special for the price.
MC barber is the most compassionate barber I have met and he does his job with a passion. He gave me the best haircut I have ever got.😀😀😀
Best haircut. Brian is excellent.
Our second time at MC Barber was as great as the first. We chose to go without an appointment so expected a wait but it wasnt much of one. MC and Carlos are great guys. I get a buzzed boy cut, spiked on the top so if you are a woman and like that style you wont be disappointed with Carloss work!
Great shop comfortable environment. My son loved the barber.
Terrible service.. I had a similar issue last time but figured it was just a rough day and decided to try again. I called and booked my appt for 10 am and said I didnt have a preference on who cut my hair. I arrived just before scheduled time. One chair is being used another barber sitting in his chair playing on his phone. The barber didnt even get up and look at the schedule book when I entered and said it would only be a moment. 1030 comes and I am still waiting, the barber is still on his phone and the other chair still in use. At 1045 I asked what was going on and was told it would be a little longer I couldnt wait as I had other things that needed to get done which is why I called and booked an appointment for 10 and was given excuse after excuse on why. Good luck when you schedule an appt. Not reliable or professional at this establishment.
Great cuts, wonderfully team, world acclaimed championship awards, expensive but worth it.
Sami cut my hair. He gave me the haircut I have been looking for the last 5 years. I love it. I have found my barber! (I need to take pics)
MC is truly a master barber, but an even better guy. Very professional and the conversation is great. If you want your hair done right, you gotta come here.So glad I heard about him from a friend and it killed me to lose him as a barber when I moved away. Ill definitely be back when Im in the area.
Excellent place very family friendly MC and his team are very professional. Highly recommend.
My kid has been going to MC for many years I must say the best quality for hair cut. The staff and MC are very friendly and always a pleasure to go there.
Best haircut by far Ive had in CT, consistent results.
Awesome barbershop and professional barbers who make sure you are happy when you leave the chair!
If I am in rush and dont care about my haircut I go wherever I find a barber. However, when I need to look my best and want a quality haircut & an ideal beard and mustache trim I schedule an appointment with MC in a timely manner and patiently wait my turn when I arrive. Every time I sit in the barbers chair I am amused by MCs ambidextrous scissor-hair-cutting skills. It feels good to leave MCs barbershop knowing that I got an amazing haircut & beard and mustache trim. Thank you MC for years of quality service.
I have been going to MCs barber shop for over the past 2 years (once a month) and I can tell without a doubt, he is the best barber I have used in my 31 years in CT. MC takes pride in his craft and in doing so has worked very hard to be the best in the state. Not once have I had a bad haircut from this establishment. Also, I really like that MC takes appointments, mostly appointment only since he usually book two or three days out when I call. MC also runs his barbershop in a very professional manner, especially in regards to hygienic safety, all cutting materials are disinfected and new straight edge razors for each customer. Along with the hair cut, I always have a fun time hanging out at the barbershop while I am getting my haircut. I highly recommend getting your hair cut at MCs Barbershop, why settle for an average haircut in CT when you can get the best!
I had been a regular customer at MC barber shop. Never had the chance to have MC himself cut my hair, but always other barbers. I am writing to let you all know about my worst experience today 6/2/18. As soon as I walked in @ 3:40 PM I had written down my name under Alberto who was already having some other customer that he was working on. I knew that I was next in line. At 4:00 Alberto wraps up the current customer and starts cleaning. He would have finished by 4:05 PM. After that he came to the front desk, looked at the sign-up sheet and then to my surprise h walked out. I thought that he would have gone out for a short smoke break or something like that. I kept waiting on and on with no sign off Alberto coming back. At 4:25 I walk up to MC barber and ask him if Alberto is on a break - expecting that MC would at least tell me when Alberto would be back. To my utter disappointment, MC just tells me that Alberto is on a break in a dismissive tone. In spite of this slight, I go back and decide to wait for Alberto till 4:35. Still no sign-off Alberto. At 4:35 I decide to walk out.I am very disappointed not only in Alberto but also MC. A few minutes ago I saw MC mention to another customer who missed an appointment by 20 mins that he cannot take him today and that his (MCs) time is valuable. Does this mean that a customer like me does not have any value for my time? I can understand a barber taking a 5 min break when a customer is waiting. But this is beyond explanation what I experienced today. MC and his team may be the best barber in town, but they should not let success get to their head and treat customers disrespectfully. I hope they take this in the right sense
I have been searching for a long time for a barber shop that cares about doing it right. It seemed like the great barbers retired. But today I stumbled on MC and his team. They listen and they care about the customer. Most importantly, they take pride in what they do. It does still exist!!! Thank you and I will see you next week.
The best Barber in town, wouldn’t go anywhere else!
This Barber Shop is the best place I’ve ever had a haircut from! I highly recommend ALL the barbers here!
Very nice under cuts .. the fade quality is one on the best . The fact that they use the best equipment and tools you can just tell this guys take pride in work they do.
Love Courtney! Always a great cut and shave.
This place is horrible....waited almost 2 hours and never told me to check the box and when I showed I had been there they said...sorry...so they passed over me.. and took 45 min to cut a childs hair...what a waste...please dont ever go here.
Must say the haircut from MC is always perfect, lot of attention to the style and details.
Great place to cut hair professional barbars nice and respectful everyone they cut your hair in the way that u like or want they make sure you leave happy I been cutting my hair with them for over 3 years and they are the best.
Best place to have a hair cut in New England Area. Best of the best.
Insanely talented Barber. One of the best in the world (no BS). Enough said.
He is extremely overrated I went to him once, very rude very offensive towards women and he judged me. For me, Sam is 100 times better than him and cheaper. Sam>Mc Now I go to Phil who cuts UConn players hair, hands down the best barber in Ct... South side barber shop
Came here for the first time two weeks ago and thought I found a new barber. After scheduling my second one oclock appt I was out of town dealing with an emergency and missed the appointment by an hour. I called MC barber shop at 2 that day sincerely apologizing and explaining the circumstance. I was advised that my next $25 haircut would now be $50, mind you I have not had any NO-SHOWS with them in the past. A bit excessive if you ask me, shame.And I hope people dont fall for these five star reviews, my first appointment I heard the three barbers discussing posting reviews for each other...misleading.
Very popular shop if you wanna get cut by the allmighty MC you better make an appointment!!
Literally the best barbershop in CT. I travel almost an hour to see MC or Carlos they are hands down the best barbers in CT.
Professional, clean, Alberto does a great job, highly recommend
The best one over there is Sam that guy is amazing
My boyfriend goes to MC barber for 2 years and everyone loves his haircuts.we highly recommended!

Highly recommend, very talented barbers!
Excellent barbershop.
I was there with my BF and I had sat while he was getting his haircut, and I got harassed by the 2 barbers who they work right at the end of the shop which I believe was their name is (SAM & CARLOS) they were looking and laughing at me at all time for no reason which is not nice at all, I didnt see the owner in there to tell him or her about what we went through in the shop but Im leaving experience online in comment for every one to read it before going down.
Worst haircut ever
The haircut very good but the price I first paid 25 dollars and today I paid 37$ . I did not understand the reason why I did the same things as the first time.
Hands down the best, thanks MC
Best barber!.
Quick cuts
MC is the man. He is an expert when it comes to cutting hair.
💯recommended

Carlos is 1 dope barber
Awesome!
