Welcome to Barber Shop 72

Your Upper West Side barber in Manhattan, NYC

We opened on West 72nd Street with one idea: a proper barber shop where every client leaves looking sharper than when they walked in. Whether it’s a skin fade, a tapered classic cut, a beard reshape, or a hot towel shave, our barbers take the time to get the details right – the outline, the blend, the finish.

It’s a shop for the neighborhood. Regulars, first-timers, kids in for their first haircut, and seniors who’ve been getting the same cut for forty years all sit in the same chairs.

I have been coming here for 10 years now and have been very happy with the service. Rosa is the best and delivers high quality hair cuts each time. Wouldn’t go anywhere else !

Julie has been cutting my hair for about two years now at barber 72. She is fantastic. Listens to instructions and has a good eye.

I’ve been coming here since moving to the neighborhood 9 months ago and I’m not going anywhere else - men’s cuts are easy, no frills, and affordable ($40 pre-tip). The staff is super respectful and energetic, and I can’t be happier with the team I’ve met here. Make sure you bring cash for the tip!
