Great place to get a very affordable men’s haircut, complete with a professional straight blade and hot shaving cream finish! Family run business for over 30 years.

I’ve had all but two haircuts in my life at Parkwoods Men’s Hairstyling(30 years worth). This place is so much more than a barber shop to me; I have a really strong sentimental attachment to it. Anna and Lui(husband and wife/owners) are exceptional at what they do. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and their sense of humour and pleasant disposition makes getting my hair cut an enjoyable experience. Just to show you how nice these people are — my older brother was extremely ill with a disease, and was unable to leave his house to get his hair cut. Anna went out of her way and came to him, and refused to take any money. That’s the kind of people they are; pure class. I will continue to give them my business as long as they’re open.

Disappointed. I tried this barber shop on the weight of one ‘Yay! I’m a fan.’ and one ‘Woohoo! As good as it gets!’ rating. The store is modest, old-fashioned and clean. The owner/staff are very friendly and seem eager to accommodate. The price is cheap.($ 15.50 for my cut, including tax.) I called ahead to see if appointments were necessary(they’re not) and if they could do a classic(old-fashioned) men’s hair cut called a ‘short back and sides’. I was assured that ‘they all could do that’. Considering that I have had no luck finding a satisfactory execution of this seemingly easy to do cut, I showed up with a how-to diagram from an on-line catalogue of cuts and styles. The cut was just okay. It wasn’t exactly was I was hoping for(and didn’t match the schematic I provided), but I can certainly live with it. Marks deducted for needing to tidy up around one ear after getting home. Still need to decide if I’ll go back and give them another shot or if I’ll keep looking…

I tried this place after reading Jim’s review. The place is nice, not too fancy and the service is great. I was very pleased with the hair-cut and for sure will go there again.

I’ve been getting my hair cut here for about 15 years, and I won’t go anywhere else until my barber, Anna, retires. This is an old-school barber shop where you can get your hair cut for $ 15, with a shave for around $ 7 if you wish. The staff are very friendly and have been in the trade for a very long time. I highly recommend this place. It’s a little hard to find if you don’t know if it’s there, as it’s in the middle of Parkwoods Mall, which is an old-style Don Mills plaza, but it’s worth stopping in, trust me.
