Best Barber Shops In Newark

“I can’t recommend True enough. Not only is he a master at his craft, but his hospitality makes the visit a great time. Genuinely someone who is both highly talented and just a great person to be around. If you want a top-tier cut from a stand-up guy, go see True.“

“Been a customer of Juan Carlos's for many years now. Always thoroughly satisfied never a long way especially when you book ahead.“

“Absolutely one of my favorite barbershop here in ironbound. Staff knows what's up with cutting hair, and after being finished cutting your hair they would give you a card with their phone number for appointments and other information?
Such a good shop??“

“Cut my hair amazingly good, everyone here is welcoming and nice. Great barber shop. Another visit will be coming soon.?“

“Hands down one of the best barbershops in the area. I highly recommend. if you're looking for consistent, top-tier service. The shop has a great, welcoming atmosphere. It’s exceptionally clean, and their online booking system makes scheduling a breeze.“

“One of the best barbers I’ve worked with so far I’ve been with him through all his other barbershop locations. He been cutting my hair since 2020.“

“My stylist, Sha Mula, really deserves her flowers. She’s one of the best in Newark, hands down. From the moment you step into her shop, you feel the early 90s vibe—warm, nostalgic, and welcoming. She specializes in braids and locs, and her work always comes out clean, neat, and professional. A re-twist or braid-up is only $60–$70, which is way lower than what most locticians and braiders are charging these days.

What makes it even more special is that people in the hair industry go through extreme stress and often don’t get paid what they truly deserve. Stylists put in long hours on their feet, deal with tough schedules, and sometimes don’t get the recognition they should. Sha doesn’t even get as many clients as she deserves, yet she never lets that stop her. She keeps her prices fair and continues showing up with the same level of love and dedication every time.

The best part is her spirit—she’s always nice to everyone who sits in her chair. No matter who you are, she treats you with respect, patience, and kindness. That kind of energy makes the experience just as good as the finished style.

Sha Mula is more than just a stylist—she’s an artist, a professional, and someone who genuinely cares about her clients. Newark is lucky to have her. ?✨“

“This shop was so nice! I was searching for a barber and happened to have passed by them in a cab one day. The shop has amazing energy! The owner is really really nice and accommodating! There’s even a pool table inside! When he gets it to where he really wants it to be that is going to be a really hot spot! I’ll definitely be going back!!! I don’t recall the elder who cut my hair name but he took his time and was thorough.“

They take pride in providing excellent service and I recommend Step Up to everyone I know, specifically directing them to cut with Junio. Junio has never let me down, is always on top of his scheduling, and does his very best to understand the needs of the customer and provide great service. Look for him, you won’t regret it.“

“First time, Customer, and very satisfied with my mohawk cut. It was cut in the feminine style and did not make me look masculine which I’m very pleased with. Thank you for a great experience and great customer service!!“

“By far I have not anyone that has cut my hair as good as vaca for the past 6 years.
I would give 6 starts but they only have 5 stars. Best barber in the shop ask for VACA????“

“Thank you to the female hairdresser at this salon. I don’t even know her name because she hardly speaks any English, but her skills are truly impressive. Despite the limited communication, she managed to turn my messy hair into a light and layered short cut that feels so refreshing and perfect for summer.

The only small issue was that I didn’t realize the bob haircut would be charged separately, so I wasn’t aware of the full price beforehand. But after coming home and looking at the result more and more, I feel really satisfied. I’ll definitely come back again and recommend here to my friends.

Thank you.“
