Great shop, I’ve been going here for 3 years and have always gotten a good haircut from everyone on staff. Team is super friendly, and they’re part of the community - kids stop by for candy, dogs stop by for a treat. I’ve moved a few times and even though this place is further for me, I still like coming. Highly recommend.

First time at Cutting Edge Barber Shop on the UES, and it won't be my last! Shelly was incredibly friendly, listened carefully to what I wanted, and delivered a quick, precise cut that turned out perfect. The place is spotless, and the service was top-notch; definitely coming back soon!

I’ve been coming to this barbershop on 2nd Ave in the Upper East Side for years and it’s consistently excellent. The space is always clean, the service is quick and efficient, and the barbers are clearly highly skilled. It is also very easy to book, which makes it incredibly convenient when fitting a haircut into a busy schedule. The hot towel service is a real standout and adds a premium touch that keeps me coming back. Reliable, professional, and one of the best barbershops in the Upper East Side. I genuinely get more compliments after a haircut here than I ever have anywhere else.
