Hands down the BEST! True goes above and beyond to give the best service. My son has Down syndrome and it can be challenging at times trying to do something as easy as a hair cut but True definitely Has the patience and goes at my son’s pace. Happy we finally found a shop that can manage children with special needs.

This place is wonderful. The barber, Ace, was super sweet and friendly, and very clear in his communication, striving to give me the haircut I wanted. Also, the prices are reasonable. The location is super convenient, in the middle of the newly energized Halsey Street.ServicesBuzz cut

I was wandering around Newark looking for a new barber when I stumbled into True Cuts and ngl Sam gave me the best cut I have had in 20 years!Sam isn’t just a barber, he’s basically a magician with clippers. The man gave me such a fire cut and the sharpest beard game that I walked out looking like a whole new person. No exaggeration: on my way home, three different women asked for my number. That’s not coincidence, that’s Sam’s work!From the chill Neo Soul soundtracks to his easy conversation, the whole experience felt part therapy session, part transformation ritual. If you need a new barber, Sam is your guy. As long as I’m in Newark, my loyalty is locked in!Sam is the only one touching my hair!

I had an good experience at True Cuts barbershop! Not only did I get a clean, sharp haircut, but the whole vibe of the place was next level. You are able to play a few games of pool and even hop on the PS5, makes the wait way more enjoyable. The barbers are skilled, professional, and make sure you leave looking your best. It’s more than just a barbershop, it’s a spot to chill, relax, and have a good time. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for both quality cuts and a fun atmosphere!ServicesRazor cut

My usual guy is MIA so had to find someone new. Now I think we can all agree that finding a new barber is always a harrowing experience. You never know what you might get. I was fortunate enough to have Malcolm cut my hair. It is one of the best cuts I’ve ever had! His attention to detail is superb and he made my hair look perfect! Really glad I found this place. It’s clean, modern, and the location is super convenient.ServicesHaircut

I brought (2) of my step kids to this shop and the aura of the salon was so pleasant! They treated them so respectfully, even being teens. They knew what they needed for their hair to make sure that they look and feel good.

Went in for a walk in cut. They were a little busy but the owner gave me a slot after the closing hours. Super nice guy who cares about his business. The place has a great vibe to it. Got hooked up with Ace, who can also take you after hours with an appointment. He did a great job with my cut and fade. Keep up the hustle!ServicesFade cut

Arabia “Ray” is a wizard with the clippers. Patient, thoughtful and a perfectionist. Highly recommend!!! She gave me a wash and condition for my dry scalp and then an expert haircut. A complete transformation with great attention to detail.

This is my favorite time of the week hanging with my son. Walked into True Cuts Newark for a Loctician. As my son has been wanting to style his hair for the longest. Arabia was profoundly professional and helpful. She immediately tended to my son’s hair and treatment. I’m truly pleased and grateful to have been able to walk in and get the services needed for my son. True Cuts Newark is a great experience and vibe. The pool tables and game area helps pass time with the wait times. However I felt relaxed and comfortable.
