“ Long and Short is hands down the best barbershop in Brooklyn — and Mark is the guy you want in the chair. I’ve been going to him for over 5 years now, and he’s never missed. Precision cuts, great conversation, and that attention to detail that’s hard to find these days. The whole vibe at the shop is unmatched — stylish, relaxed, and welcoming. And yes, they’ll even offer you a bourbon when you walk in. It’s that kind of place. Whether you’re coming in for a fresh fade or just want to feel like you’re stepping into your own personal speakeasy, Long and Short delivers every time. Can’t recommend Mark enough. ”
“ Jake A. delivered the best and most complimented haircut I have received in NYC! The consultation was thoughtful, the attention to detail was spot on, and the haircut was meticulously executed! Thank you! ”
“ Located next to so many public transit options, Long and Short Barber Co. might just be the best barbershop I’ve ever been to. I’ve been going for over a year and Jake and the team treat me so well. I’m always incredibly pleased by my cut, but I’m even more pleased by the company. As someone moving away, I can honestly say that Jake and this barber shop might be one of the things I miss most about the area. If it wasn’t for moving out of the country, I’d travel out of my way to come back. Consistent, reasonably priced cuts, performed by excellent people are hard to come by—and this place has it! ”
“ I got my haircut by Jake, and I am confident that I’ve found my barber for the next few years! Drinks upon entry, great folks to chat with, and just a great overall atmosphere at this place. Jake is an expert, who helped me find the right look. He had suggestions for my face shape, and made me think outside the box. I ended up going with my normal cut, but it’s nice to know that the next time I want to switch up my look, he has great suggestions, and always puts in the work to make sure you are happy at the end of your cut. Thank you Jake and co! ”
“ This shop is one of a kind. The team here is welcoming and friendly from the moment you walk in. My barber Jake is the best. I’ve been with him for the past year. Always on time, provides a stress free experience, and knows what to do to make sure I look my best before walking out; my hair and beard always on point. Thank you Jake and team Downtown Brooklyn! ”
“ I come here usually every 3-4 weeks to get my haircut and have been coming for almost 4-5 yrs. Ive never been displeased with the service they provide. I’ve also had my hair cut by several of their barbers Mark, Santiago, and Jake. They all take pride of their work and always provide a comfortable experience. Recently Jake has been giving me a haircut w/fade, beard trim, and has certainly made the most of my dusty hairline. Sometimes I think he’s a surgeon I wouldn’t go anywhere else! ”
“ Jake is an amazing barber - he always pays super close attention to detail and I always leave the shop happy with the result. Super nice guy as well! Highly highly recommend ”
“ Santiago is not only a top barber in downtown Brooklyn, Santiago is a person first and foremost. He will go out of his way to make sure you are taken care of and get that cut just right, every time.The environment itself is outstanding. Relaxing music, lots of space, and nothing but good vibes. This is really a rare gem close to many modes of transportation. You can book your appointment by phone, online or through squire for a seamless timely experience. ”
