This place is great! I really like what they do with my hair. It is a clean shop though, they dont sweep after each cut which is gross but it is a barber shop not a salon so I will forgive them that.…

I have this strange phenomenon with people who cut hair. It seems that if I compliment them and give them a great tip, that results in them doing a worse job than before. I've been coming here once a…

Been hitting Gabby's since the mid-90's. I generally take whomever is available but the place does get busy. They rock, I've yet to meet anyone that wasn't related to Wayne.

If you want a razor fade, don't go to Gabby's! I really want a razor fade so I called and asked if they do a razor fade. After I asked, the woman who answered asked me "with a razor?" "yes," I told…

Cheap and tidy. That's about all you can ask for in man's haircut, and this did the trick. After trying out a barbershop across the street--better hours there, by the way--my boyfriend decided he…

This is where I get my haircut. Every 30 days. I'm not really picky about who does 'er as all of the barbers there are great. $15 is a fair price for a clean look. They will also shave your neck with…

Amazing, simply amazing. Cheap, great conversation, great 'do, very very impressed, would recommend this to any guy I know. Goodbye Supercuts, or Hair Cuttery, or (gasp) State St. Barbers

What a great place. I heard about if from several friends first. $14 for a first class, old school haircut that looked much better than the $35 hack jobs I've had for years. If you like your hair short, this...

On my way to Gabby's I pass three other barbershops and the Aveda school--and I've never had a second thought. Gabby's gives a great haircut for only $14. My description of an ideal haircut is pretty…

Love this place for a cheap hair cut. Only place in town you can get a $12 cut and not feel like it's a $12 cut. Great magazine selection while you wait--and you will wait.
