Great hairstylists. Kong and her husband have been working this shop for over 30 years! They’re fast, no frills, professional barbershop at great prices. There’s a ton of cool lil aquariums inside too.
Everytime im in Boston I come here, while the place is very hidden and down a flight of stairs from street level, I always have a great experience here. Everyone mostly speaks Chinese here so I’m usually the only one waiting that has no clue what’s being said but the man and the woman who cut hair are so nice! They do a great job and are very welcoming. $16 for a men’s haircut, they take there time and they do speak English too! Great place for a cut. Highly recommend
- Cheap and affordable (only $16 for men haircut) - Room is air conditioned comfortably - No appointment, you just walk in, but queue can be long. I got in at 2PM on Sunday and there were 5 people sitting ahead of me, with only one old man and one old woman working. waited for roughly an hour sitting on the chair (if I remember correctly) - They are very fluent in Chinese, they can speak and understand basic English.
