The staff is always so wonderful and professional. My husband and both my boys go here for haircuts. Merik and Robert are our favorites and their haircuts look perfect ever single time. The shop is always clean and the wait is typically never too long. Also if you are looking for baby's 1st haircut they do a beautiful job, my son got a special certificate along with his 1st lock of hair saved.

Like 4-5 years ago I went to this barber down the street from this place he was the best and then he shut down so I went all around looking for a new barber and I came upon this guys. After the first visit I knew this was the one. They are very friendly to me Ive been going there for 3-4 years now they are the best. I really recommend that you go there

Hands down the best barber shop in the Babylon / West Islip area. I have been going to Ace of Cuts to see Merik since they opened (9 years ago?), the service, haircuts and conversation are always top notch. I moved to Chicago for a few years and would make it a point to get my haircut by Merik when I was back in town, he's that good. When you style I'm definitely smiling, thanks for the amazing haircuts over the years!

Great & very consistent barber shop for the value! I have been going here regularly over the last 2-years. As far as I'm concerned, for the greater West Islip area, fewer places will offer a more consistent, quality haircut for the price. Definitely recommend.
