Tried Charlie’s Barber Shop for the first time. My husband has been going to Michael for a few years so I made an appointment. I was long overdue for a haircut and had never even set foot in a barber shop before, but he made the whole experience super easy.

When I moved to Cambridge I was looking for a new barber. Someone recommended Michael at Charlie's Barber Shop. I am so glad I got this recommendation. I have been seeing Michael for about 3 hair cuts so far, and these have been the best haircuts I have ever had. I am feeling more confident and my hair is looking better. What more could you want?
