Primos II Barber Shop

Good barbershop. Don’t like how they don’t respect the business hours. Half hour waiting on a Sunday and no one is there
Update I thought they would come late again and they have. It’s 11:15 pm on a Sunday and they are now where to be found

Jared is one of the barbers from VIP Barbershop on Harvard Ave in Allston, aka «The Dominicans.»
In there, you almost never hear English, and can’t communicate with most of the guys with the clippers, yet always come out of there fresh to death. Well one of their top guys moved over to Primos and he’s just a grade A, level 1 urban barber who can give you a mean temp fade with the#2−3 or scissor cut and line up a white boy’s hair like me.
I haven’t sat at any of their other barbers chairs, but I vouch for Jared. He’s real deal.

Don’t make any plans around this shop’s schedule. At 6pm, I called to find out when was the latest I could walk in. The answer was 7:45pm, as they close at 8pm. I left work early to make it there — only to find the shop closed at 7:40pm. Seriously, you can’t stay open during your advertised business hours?

Jose is the best barber around, believe me I’ve hunted. Scissors, fades, line up’s, he is impressive! It’s tough to find a barber who can do it all for a reasonable price. Jose is the guy!

I needed a haircut bad and I couldn’t get in to see my regular barber so I noticed this place was right down the road and figured I would give them a try. I have the hardest time finding a barber who can cut my hair and have it turn out looking good. I’ve been going to the same barber for the past 3 years and am very satisfied every time so I was skeptical about trying somewhere new. There wasn’t a long wait and I was very satisfied with my haircut. I will definitely be back. If my next haircut is just as good I may have a new regular barber.

So glad that a quality barber moved into this space.
This is a great barber shop where you get a quality cut for only $ 15 – 16. I forget exact price as I usually just give him a $ 20 for cut and tip. There is a flat-​screen TV to watch while you wait plus some magazines and comfy couches. Nothing fancy, but I don’t really care about décor or amenities when I get my hair cut.
What I care about is how my hair looks when I leave and what it cost me. The barber is very nice and listens to how you want your hair. I am terrible at explaining what I want and he’s done a great job every single visit. I just got back from my third cut there and couldn’t believe that they haven’t gotten any reviews yet on Unilocal when I checked.
He takes his time and uses a straight-​edge razor to clean up sideburns and the rest of your hairline if needed.
He is skilled with scissors too and doesn’t just rely on electric clippers and can cut all different kinds of hair.
If the word gets out, the waits might get longer but I’ll enjoy it while it lasts…
