Richard’s International Barber Shop

My husband comes here for his regular hair cut. He’s been attended by both Joe and Richard. They are both great hair stylists and they do an amazing job.
I prefer Richard more since I like his styling better.
The only problem is that I have never had my calls picked up at the salon. But they mention it on the voicemail that no appointment is needed, so I would suggest just walk in.

This place is a legitimate barber shop and it’s a bit old school which gives it a great character. 30+ years in the business you must be doing something right. Richard was working by himself on Fri so I just waited patiently. It wasn’t long before I was sitting on the chair. Richard’s work is flawless and he delivered a great caesar haircut. We talked a lot during the haircut and I’ve got to say this guy has a lot of passion and integrity for what he does. Place got plenty of space to lounge around and read magazines. For those that can’t wait too long, go early in the morning or early afternoon. The other plus is that you can pay credit very easily. It will be hard to beat this $ 15 haircut including the excellent service. I will definitely swing by again.

Richard and Joe are great people and are fantastic barbers. $ 15 for a Mens cut and well worth it.
Note: Friday afternoons are the busiest time of the week

Went to Richard’s on Unilocal reviewers’ recommendations. I just lost my barber of 25 years, 30 including others before «Joe», and had been searching for 3 months. I made a 2:00 appointment and was seated by 2:10. The place is nice and clean, open, and Richard is very personable. I got a wash and cut, and rate the cut at an 8. This was the first time he did my hair, so that is very good. Two problems with the cut. First, he lost my natural part, but I think a lot of his customers don’t wear a part (he doesn’t either) and the overall look was curiously like his own, which is nice on him, but not what I prefer. Second, he got a little choppy with the clippers over my left ear, and near the top in back so the blend wasn’t up to my standards. HOWEVER, I will be going back because I think he is going to be my barber for the next 25! Takes a cut or two to get it right with almost any barber, and he has talent! When he charged me $ 15 BUCKS it almost blew me away! For a wash and cut? That’s $ 25 minimum in my book! Highly recommend!

Don’t waste your time, unless you have plenty to waste. They have four chairs, but are down to one barber. I have been going for 2 years, but walked out today after waiting 2.5 hours, with no sign I was coming up. They don’t work weekends. Don’t do appointments. Filled with families with kids, all of whom have nothing else to do but wait for the cuts. Move on to a place that can handle its business promptly.

I’ve lived in the Heights for many years, but just discovered this barber shop. Generally, I found most barber shops in the area worse than bad, unfortunately.
However, this place is a real find, and I’m just sorry it took me so long. Richard gave me a great haircut, really taking his time to find out what I wanted, and with the affordable price this is definitely going to become my regular spot. Excellent barber shop!

The reviews are all spot on. I was a walk-​in and received an excellent haircut from Richard. The service was excellent, and both Richard and Joe were incredibly friendly. I was also able to easily find parking right in front of their shop at 6pm on a weeknight. I live in Journal Square, and this is hands-​down the best, nearest place. You will have to drive or take a bus to get here from JSQ, but worth it. Definitely worth the trip. Same goes for you folks in Hoboken.

Exceptional speed and service I walked right in off the street and Joe looked after me immediately. Him and his son Richard were both extremely polite and professional, and I was done before I knew it! Will definitely be back.

Best experience and best haircuts! Both Richard and Joe give consistently great men’s haircuts. They actually listen and give you exactly what you want. I’ve tried so many other barber shops, salons, etc., but I finally found one worth going to.
I’ve been going here for three years and I always leave happy. You can’t get better service or a better haircut anywhere. I’ve paid much more for haircuts and have never been as happy as I am going to Richard and Joe.

I was going from barber to barber. Very disappointed every time I would leave a barber shop I’d more and more pissed off! Than I ran into these guys Joe and Rich, and let me tell ya… Joe cuts a mean hair! For 15 bucks, you’re gonna be highly content! I mean it!

I have been going to International Styles barbershop for the past 2 years. Rich, the owner of the shop is my barber. He cuts hair really good and sticks to his appointments. The other barbers in the shop are really good as well. I go to them when Rich is unavailable. If you are looking for quality service and a great haircut this is the spot to go to. Highly recommended. You will not be disappointed.

I just finished up my hair cut and I can’t help but wonder how Joe does it! This was my fourth time visiting the shop and my perceptions have not changed since the first visit.
I live near NJCU which isn’t too far but isn’t exactly a block away from the shop, but I don’t mind driving the 20 minutes cause I know Joe is going to do it right! Affordable yet quality cuts, straight edge razors, and a comfortable atmosphere… Can’t go wrong with that!

I’ve lived in Jersey City, NJ two years now and I finally found a barber who gave me a great cut! We stopped by the night before Thanksgiving at around 7:30pm and were surprised to find them open. The shop is clean and spacious and the atmosphere is relaxing with an old school feel to it. Make no mistake, the barbers give modern day cuts for a super fair price. I am glad I no longer have to schlep over to Midtown for a descent cut! Thanks Richard!

I’ve been going to Richard’s for about a year now and I won’t let anyone cut my hair aside from him or Joe. The place is friendly, clean, and hospitable. Richard and Joe are marvelous and the straight razor shaves are very well done. All of my housemates now go there as well.
If you are looking for an affordable high quality haircut or shave you cant beat Richard’s.

Richard’s is clean and inviting, and it’s just half a block off Central Avenue in Jersey City Heights. Joe cut my hair, and he did a great job. He really made sure I was happy with my cut and was happy to take a bit more off the top. I had a great experience and got a great cut for $ 15 (excluding tip). Highly recommended.

Really nice shop. Called up, Richard answered, said his price was $ 15 for a men’s haircut. Popped over mid-​afternoon, was a little backed up, he asked if I wanted his dad (Joseph) to cut my hair, I said sure and his father, who speaks Italian, but not a word of English, but has been cutting hair since he was 19, proceeded to do a fantastico job on my head. Just fabulous. Couldn’t be better. All you guys (and gals) out there who want a great hair-​cut at a fabulous price, head on over to Richards.

Richie is the best! Very personable and fun to chat to. I’ve gone here multiple times and love the cuts he’s given me. I wouldn’t trust anybody else with the changes I’ve made with my hair, especially when they’re more drastic. He just has an eye for those things.
