Kike Barber Shop

When I found out this is Juan Lagares MLB players favorite barbershop I told my brother to get a haircut here. He loveeed it and he even got to see Lagares there ironically and he even got an autograph.

I always wanted to get a hair cut at this place. Not bc of the reputation or anything.
Just so that I can tell my jewish friends «dude I got a hair cut from a kike.» And so here’s my exp at «KIKE» lol. I still giggle when I hear the name. FYI I am not racist.
I specifically told the barber I wanted a skin tape up. The guy gave a lousy haircut that didn’t look remotely like what I desired. I looked like a hair cut you get in rego park for $ 5 from 1 of those Bukharian barbers. For $ 5 your haircut should suck. But not for $ 20. For $ 20 you should look good.
Had to go else where to repair his crappy job. The haircut was $ 15 and I gave $ 5 as tip. Not bc I like to reward crappy cuts. I wanted him know who was writing this review. I’m petty like that.
Dear barber I think you should know you aren’t smart by doing the level 5 shaver trick. This trick involves taking a shaver that is 2 sizes larger so you don’t shave any hair. Instead it looks like you are doing a tape up on the back side. I knew this trick before you started it. This is done to sucker the customer to believing the barber is taking due care to give you a good cut. It’s like the oldest trick in the book.
FYI Just bc I came in with a suit and tie after work doesn’t mean I’m a sucker. It also doesn’t mean I don’t know when someone is trying to hustle me. Obviously I knew it was going to be a crap hair cut. But don’t go all out to prove me right. God ppl are so stupid nowadays. «What’s the worst that can happen?» You lose business stupid. You don’t go to work to hang out with your primos okay!!!
As I was observing this monstrosity I shook my head in disbelief. How could a guy think I’m so stupid. As I was walking out of the shop a little disappointed I said «damn this is a bad cut. I will need to go somewhere to fix it.» Upon the barber hearing it he did a smirk as if it is a source of pride to do a terrible job. I was kind of taken aback of how proud he was of his crappiness. It’s like when I was in high school and my friends would brag about really bad washroom exp. But instead of a toilet it was my head.
Thank you for the bad haircut KIKE. Now when I think of the word «KIKE» I won’t think of the centuries of misfortune that befell our jewish brothers but really bad barbers and crap hair cuts.
Side note: there are a lot of red flags at this place. There are no customers in the evening. The majority of the ppl there are friends of employees watching the World Cup.
A good barber shop stays packed from 5−9pm everyday. This place was a ghost town for the entirety of my cut.
Also I would request the owner to concentrate on customer satisfaction. More customers = more $. No customers = this review.
There is potential here. If you guys get rid of all your «primos» and make this a proper business instead of a Hangout it won’t be a ghost town. Also try to get barbers that think past today. You guys want customers like myself. Not broke bums who are too poor for a cut and only hang there for your free World Cup tv. I get a haircut twice a month and spend $ 40 on it. I have @ least 8 colleagues (same age, similar education level/​income, and same style) who have same schedule n budget. That’s $ 360 a month you won’t ever touch. Try to imagine it. You’re 40 min from the city and 20 min from bayside, Astoria, and flushing.
Good location bad employees. Bad combo

My favorite barber they all good

Great place, nice atmosphere

@Jeff O: The name is pronounced «Kee-​Keh». It’s a common nickname for «Enrique» amongst Latinos. Lol-​the spelling certainly is unfortunate in English though!

I am amused, and offended.
