Depot Square Barber Styling

I believe that I’ve frequented 6 different barber shops over time and Depot Square has to be by far the best barber shop I’ve ever been too. The barbers really know what they are doing (Rory!). The culture is great, the prices are right, and I couldn’t find a negative thing to say about the place even if you paid me. 10 stars

Everyone here is a pro. I take both my boys here (6&4 yo). They always give them a stylish little boys cut. I was so sick of taking them to cost cutters or super cuts where they just buzz their heads and don’t offer any sort of style, making it look like I cut my own kids hair.
Price is $ 18, cash only but worth every penny.
**also I just recently convinced my Hubby to try them out and he came home declaring he’ll never go anywhere else.

I have got my haircut here consistently for the last 6+ years. Dan is amazing he is meticulous and has never given me a fresh cut that is less than perfect! The barber shop is a cool spot with good music and convos with the barbers. I drive out of my way since I have moved a few towns out of the way from Wakefield because I never not been more than satisfied after I get «my ears lowered!!» I highly recommend these dudes!

Great place with very likable staff. My son and I enjoy going there to clean up. They’ve been around a long time and it is easy to see why.

This place was recommended to me by a friend who raved about it… reason to worry right off the bat. Despite that, I went this morning.
Was seated quickly and was immediately comfortable and felt like a regular. My guy Gino did exactly as asked and was friendly from the outset.
I was done in about 15 minutes and was out the door.
This is a man’s kind of joint and that’s exactly what I was after. Price is right at 18 bucks.

I went here for the first time and I asked them for a medium-​low regulation haircut, the same haircut I’ve been getting for 5+ years. …Well, they ended up giving me a very very high fade. Seroiusly ?? That was NOT what I asked for. I was extremely irritated and regret ever penny that I paid. Never again will I go here. You can’t even follow a simple request? I also ened up with a line of hair still on the bottom of my neck and loose hair in my hair! How inexcusable. Very unprofessional
Also, there was no hot towel, powder, neck shave, or cologne — which many good places would do for free.
I left with a haircut I DID NOT ASK FOR, hair at the bottom of my neck, and cut hair still in my hair. How does this barber shop have such good reviews?

My hair cuts are pretty basic: a fade each and every time. But I’ve had enough bad experiences that this is the only place I will let touch my hair.

Just took my 6 yr old son and after I paid, my son pointed to a still bleeding large cut on the back of his ear. When I pointed it out to the barber, he just shrugged it off and told me not to touch it. He was completely unapologetic and quick to get paid. Thankfully, I eventually got the bleeding to stop so a stitch wasn’t needed. Good haircut, but the barber handled the situation with zero empathy. Traumatic barber experience for my little man :-(

Been coming to this barbershop for a few years and have had my hair cut by everyone there and they always do a great job. $ 16 cash only.

Always a great cut here. I had Danny shave my head this summer during the 100 degree heat. Just went back and got a solid fade from one of the new guys. Gino & Burt also get props for super solid haircuts. Pretty much can not go wrong if you are a guy looking for a quality Barber cut.
These guys run a solid shop. Try it once and you will become a regular.

Always leave with a great haircut. Thanks to Gino and the rest of thr crew.

This place is legit. Sick of Floyd’s overpriced location and constant turnover (rarely see the same people in there) I hit it up based solely on Unilocal reviews and was not disappointed. I’m trying to grow my hair out long for only the second time in my life and couldn’t stand the hair around my ears or at the back of my neck but wanted to leave the top long. Dan took that description and ran with it — couldn’t be happier with the results — he was meticulous. Not to mention the conversation was better than most of those sullen 20 year old chicks can muster. I’ll be back.

I’m glad I come to this barber shop.
Gino and Dan are great. They’re fast and I always get a good haircut from them. The place has a great atmosphere. It has that old school feel. I also like the music they play. With average prices, great barbers, and music, this is a barber shop you should check out.

Never saw a guy so dedicated to making a good fade as I experienced with Dan. If a hair was out of place he was back at it. Good place just for men with an old style feel, but modern styling for men. I would visit again.

They should rename this place to Man Town.
The guys in there all give solid cuts. The prices are spot on at $ 16 a cut and it’s cash only. Bring a 20 and enjoy what a Barber shop should be for dudes under 40. They style and fade hair proper and give each cut with love. The conversation is usually like hanging out with a bunch of friends at a poker game unless there are kids in the place.
The music is pretty cool and you can tell that the guys are really into their music. All the décor in the place makes me think that I am in a movie set and I am making a cameo.
It’s a pain in the ass to find a good quality cut at Super Cuts prices, but these guys nailed it. Even if there is a line, they piss through it quick and I have never had to wait more than 20 minutes even with a full house.

I’ve tried a bunch of different places in Wakefield, but Depot Square is definitely the spot to get a reliable cut.
The guys who work there know what they’re doing, and they are good guys who are easy to talk to. They make you feel like a regular even if it’s your first time there. I’ve had cuts by Gino and Dan, and I recommend both of them.
They play good music which is another big plus. Even the interior of the place has a cool retro-​y barber shop vibe — not a necessity for most fellas, but it locks up the 5^th star.

Yeah I’m in Boston. But im no respecter of zip codes. If someone in Wakefield’s got the goods. That’s where I am.
So these days when i get a haircut I’m NOT lookin to end up lookin like Marshall Applewhite. I want to cop a JFK-​jr steez! And where am I gonna do that. In Boston??? Psssha. Please. I’ll come out looking like a hipster or worse. Or what am I gonna do-​go to one of those coyote-​ugly-​ass red sox themed supercuts? Get outta here.
I heard about this place through a friend who knows real people. I’m not in touch with the people-​admittedly, I’m in business! Im writin this on my way to madagascar lying down in this new singapore airlines A-​380 guppy wishin i could sleep, pacing a little and checking out my new haircut.
Damn I look good!
Want business school in 5 seconds? Be better at what you do and make it look cooler than anyone else and everyone’s buying what you’re selling. This place has it. This is a buy order. Selah.

The Depot is a great place with an awesome atmosphere.
The quality of cuts is top notch, and the staff will become friends, not just Barber’s, after your first visit. Gino, Dan and all the guys always have great conversation and make you feel like a regular really quick.
On the weekends, try and go as close to opening as possible, as it does get busy but they are always moving it right along. Also, be sure to bring cash, as they do not take cards. If you’re reading this on your phone, there is an ATM right at the end of the row of shops to the left.

I like this place. Every time I come in (once every three to four weeks), recognized and helped. Even as an outsider (new to area), the staff is friendly and accomodating. It’s absolutely a guys barber in the old world sense. Great music, cool décor, friendly staff, quality cuts. Even with my obscenely large and weird shaped head, they get it right every time.

Overall, very good place. Everyone does a good job, I have gotten hair cuts from 3 – 4 different people and all have done a superb job. Sometimes it can get busy, but that’s due to good service, and high volume, not lack of speed. Great place, will continue to go there until proven wrong, but that it’s current rate, this should not happen any time soon.
