I’m extremely disappointed with my experience at Modern Classics South End. About a week before my appointment, I called specifically to explain what I was looking for. I asked to be paired with a barber who is strong with scissors and longer hair, and I made it clear I was willing to wait for the right person. I also agreed to the $65 price point with the expectation that I’d receive a proper consultation and professional guidance on the cut. Especially since that level of service is typically what you’re paying for at that price. That did not happen. There was no real consultation, no ongoing discussion during the haircut, and no advice on how to shape or maintain the style I wanted. I told the barber I only wanted a small amount taken off, and instead my hair was completely butchered. The end result is nothing close to what I asked for, and I’m genuinely unhappy with it. When you don’t know exactly how a cut should be executed, you rely on the barber’s expertise. That’s the service. Unfortunately, that expertise and communication were missing here. I won’t be returning, and I can’t recommend this shop to anyone looking for longer, scissor-focused cuts or a consultative experience.
