Dante’s Barber Shop

Been visiting his shop every time I need a hair cut for the past year. Great guy and does his job really well.

Stopped in to Dantes the other day. I have to say I am very pleased with the cut. The place is absolutely huge with nice big leather couches to wait and a couple ofTV’s.
I was kinfa undecided on what to get either my noemal faux par or the juliane Edelman cut. I got the edellman cut and im very Happy with it.
The one thing I did notice on the mirrors were signs that say no profanity LOVE that touch. Dante super nice guy. Even enjoyed the conversation.
Dante you have got yourself a new customer. Thank you for being a nice, honest down to earth business man. See you in a couple weeks.

I’m regretted now. I trust the Unilocal review and which was the biggest mistake ever. I dont know why everyone gave a 5 stars rating.
Maybe i have a high standard or the barber shop quality going down hill or maybe just this one. I used to go to salon $ 36+tips = $ 45. They spend 35−40mins (shampoo+cut) and they take their time to cut my hair. It turn out Great, atleast i won’t see any spot that look weird or uneven. In the past I did went to some barbershop $ 18+tips it still 15−20mins and they shampoo my hair too.
Today i went to this Dante Barber shop. I Just got my hair done.30mins ago. I paid him $ 15 + $ 5tips. The hair cut took under 10mins (literally 5mins) no shampoo. Fine.
All he did was use the buzzer to trim some of my hair and use the scissor cut my top for few seconds and use a shreds blade to shave my back for COUPLE seconds!
I got home and took a shower and dried my hair. I tried gel my hair with (clay — a type of gel paste) but the left/​right top is uneven, Also my back of my hair is sticking out.
Maybe it is time for me to buy a hat/​cap until my hair grow back!
Update: i changed from 1Star to 3 Star, it wasn’t a terrible haircut but i hope he can spend few mins to use a scissor/​buzz to trim out some hair.

Not sure what these great reviews. I don’t know who is Dante but the guy who gave me a hair cut today was probably drunk. Can’t use scissors, everything is with the machine and for $ 15 this place is a joke.

Great place… Dante is very skilled and entertaining :)

Dante is by far one of the best barbers around. He does outstanding hair cuts and actually cares about his clients. Highly recommend him to everyone I see. Everyone should go here!!!
Two thumbs up!

I don’t think I would ever want to get my haircut done from anywhere else.
This place is so cool. Dante is very professional but at the same time very entertaining.
I can’t recommend any other place in Malden to get haircut but only this one.

Dante does great work! Highly recommended.

Great place, great atmosphere, clean and no appt required. My son loves it there. Def worth it for us.

Dante’s is a great place to get your haircut. He always makes sure that you leave happy. I travel all the way from Gloucester MA just to get my hair cut by Dante. I would not go anywhere else.

The environment in Dante’s is great. All the barbers who work there, especially Dante, are wonderful to talk with. Plus they all give quality haircuts and will not let you leave the chair until you are completely satisfied.
Plus, Dante has stayed after hours to squeeze me in. Which I appreciate very much.
This is the place to go to get your haircut if you are guy and you live near the Oak Grove station in Malden.

No appointments allowed… as this works for me. Just walk in a get a cut pretty quick. On the busy days there is a couple guys working and they all can do a quick cut.
I would recommend this place
$ 15 I think

Dante has been my Barber /​Therapist for 10 years now; and I can say with confidence that I have never left there disappointed. His attention to detail if unmatched and his professionalism makes your experience quick and easy. All of the barbers in there make the atmosphere upbeat all the time. Its the only Barbershop I’ve been to where customers stay after their hair is done just to be entertained by conversation.
I’ve have personally brought numerous guys in who get cut elsewhere and all of them have become loyal weekly customers. So even if your not looking for a Barber I suggest you give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.
