  • Come into this place and you know it is just an old school barbershop. This isn't a place that 'looks old school' or is 'retro' but it is legitimately a classic barbershop. They moved to this location some time in the mid-1990s but before that they were at the corner of Sheppard and Bathurst just a little bit east of the current location. The current location, to my memory, looks A LOT like the old location. I used to go to the old location when I was a kid until my mom stopped letting us go there because she had trouble getting myself and my 3 brothers away from the free arcade video games they have in the back to play while you wait. I started coming back once I was allowed to go for haircuts myself and have been going off an on ever since. They give a good haircut here. There are and always have been to my memory only two barbers in this spot - Tony and Joe - and I have always been strictly a Tony man. I seem to recall getting a hairctu by Joe around 2 decades ago and hating it (or maybe it was his style?) and have stuck with Tony ever since even waiting for him if/when Joe is free and Tony is busy. The place is old school, Tony and Joe have been cutting hair for around 3 decades that I know of and they are two Italian men who do nothing else. I have never seen a manicurist in here - like some places I have seen have - and know that when I go in, I'll get a good hair cut it'll be done quick and it'll be done as I asked. Also, Tony knows my entire family and always asks how my brothers are doing and my mom. I have given it a "moderate" for the cost because it is $18 for a man's haircut (March 2012 price). I don't know if that counts as moderate or not so let me know if I should change it. I am 99% sure they don't take credit cards but they might. Take a look at their cash register - in one of the pics I have uploaded - and you tell me if it is the kind of place that takes credit cards. Side note/ProTip: A lot of the clientele are Orthodox Jews who for some periods of the year can't get haircuts. This leads to the place being rammed by Jewish mothers and kids worried their hair is going to look unkempt during these periods and needing a haircut. The times to watch out for are around Easter (which falls the same time as Passover) and 33-35 days after the first day of Passover. As well, there is a period in the mid summer referred to as the "Three Weeks" which has a similar ruling on the hair cutting.
