Ralph gives a phenomenal haircut at a great price, and has awesome stories to tell while you sit back and relax! He works right down the hall from my apartment, and the convenience is unbeatable. My only hang-up was that my haircut lasted a lot longer than those I would get from other stylists/barbers, and I felt bad asking him to rush his craftsmanship! I think this was only because it was my first cut with him and he had no appointments immediately after mine. So, if you have extra time to kill, or if you can let him know youre on a tight schedule, then Ralph is a great barber for anyone!

Ralph has been THE barber for my sons and me for about 20 years. My wife usually comes along just to enjoy the visit. He is a wonderful guy, a fair and honest businessman, a charming story-teller who was great at relating to my boys at every age, and a first-rate barber. We always leave his shop feeling better about the world because it has people like Ralph in it.

Got my hair cut here recently! Felt like taking a journey back in time to what barber shops truly meant in the old days! Ralph, the owner has been cutting hair in this single seat shop for 40+ years!!Definitely going back again!

This is the crown jewel of barber shops in the North Shore. If youre looking for bells and whistles move on. If you want the best cut from the master of his craft done in an old school way (in the best sense of the word) at a preeminently reasonable cost, this is your shop. I feel at home here. Sheriff Andy Taylor would too. Its just that kind of shop.

Ralph is a good barber and a good man. His price is similar to competition and is a better experience. Generally appointment only, but call to see if hes available.

I have been going to Ralph for 6 years now. He is a great guy and I get the same cut every time... just the way I like.
