Clarendon Barbers

I’m surprised to see positive reviews here. I’ve been several times with my young kid, and every time the barber is grumpy. My first visit, he complained that he’s the only one in the neighborhood who cuts kid’s hair & he didn’t want to be that kind of shop… and he charges far more for kids vs others ($ 25!) despite the fact it takes 10 – 15 min & kids are staring motionless at a TV screen. I can live with a generally grumpy barber but my last visit he skipped the «hello» and went after me for being 5 min late for my last-​minute appointment. The place was empty. I’m super pregnant & waddled up steps (unassisted) with a stroller in freezing weather. Give me a break. I’d rather drive to Bunker Hill Barber Shop or Snippets.

Miguel took me as a walk-​in, working me into his busy schedule. Competent, charming, a wonderful traditional barbershop experience. If I lived in Boston this would be my regular shop. $ 19 for a simple haircut, expertly done. Highly recommended.

Miguel is absolutely wonderful. He cuts my 2 year old hair and has been for a while now. I think he has been 4 times and counting. Miguel tries so hard for example he has a train for the toddlers to sit in, gives them chocolate Cheerios and has a flat screen for them to watch something fun. My son adores him and tells everyone at school about his haircuts with Miguel !

This guy is awesome! Super friendly and great and fast work. The price is also great compared to other overpriced barber shops. I definitely recommend this place!

The cut was decent, but rushed each time. I went twice before deciding tonfind somewhere new.

Visiting from out of town and my kids needed a haircut. Was super excited to read all the great reviews so I called and made an appointment. He could take us that morning and we jumped on the T from the Back Bay and raced down there. We were 9 minutes late and he met my kids at the door and said he gave away our appointment. Whatever you do don’t be late. Found it ironic that a shop that handles kids can’t understand that you sometimes can’t travel as quickly with kids and found him to be very rude at the door. Wouldn’t even attempt to go try and go again.

I just received my first haircut here a couple weeks ago and it still looks snazzy. I am a very picky person when it comes to my hair. My family and friends are all in the beauty industry so I have had a chance to try several hair stylist and barbers in various areas. The pricing is a little high for my liking (I am used to free and less and BUT it is normal for Boston). The personality of Miguel and his talent makes me willing to pay it. The location is good and atmosphere is nice. I will be back again!

Top Barber!!! What you get here is a great haircut, time and time again. I’m a regular customer 3+ years. He runs an efficient shop. Miguel is friendly and a top professional. Prices are fair, too!!!

This place is great. Miguel is super friendly and always willing to squeeze you in. Most importantly, he gives a fantastic haircut and its reasonably priced. If I have to get a hair cut I always come back here (even though I’m only in Boston once a month now-​a-​days).

Not only is Miguel a fantastic guy, but he gives a consistently great haircut every time you sit down. Will know you by name by the second or third time you’re in the shop. Can’t say enough good things about Miguel and his business.

Have you ever heard of the saying «a busy person has time for everything»? That would best describe Miguel. If you call him, he will squeeze you into his busy schedule, and it’s MORE than worth it! Great conversationalist, excellent personality, and yes, an excellent haircut! Hard working, honest, and trustworthy. Try him and thank me later.
A+++!!

For the money, can’t be the haircut. Nice guy, clean place, and a real value.

Finally got a cut by Miguel and he did a lot better than the other guy that used to work for him.
Any barbers looking for a job should look him up… nice guy.
Mark K below should give him a try… sounds like the two he mentioned were the ones that no longer work for Miguel…

Clarendon Barbers came recommended by a GardenMoms (listserve) member, re: kids haircuts. I called and got an appointment for the same morning. My 2 ½ year old daughter walked in a was thrilled to see the Thomas the Train chair for her, with a cartoon on in front of it. Miguel did a great job, it was $ 17. In and out.

Miguel is great. He delivers consistently high quality haircuts at a fair price. Much better than other options at a similar price point.

I had my hair cut by Elvis last week. Simply put, I love my haircut. He gave me the cut I wanted and the prices are great. I would definately go back again.

Great hair cut, great service, friendly barber! No more supercuts for me!
