Customer Review Summary
A great haircut is the recurring draw here, with several reviewers describing it as phenomenal and better than the reference photos they brought in, and one longtime patron framing visits across three generations of the same family as a tradition spanning decades. Close behind, a beard trim earns specific praise for being clean and attentive, and multiple reviewers describe a professional yet neighborly, old Boston charm to the shop itself. However, a notable minority report the opposite experience: one reviewer says a requested style with a taper was ignored entirely, leaving hair hacked shorter than asked and no taper at all, while another describes an uneven cut discovered only after washing at home, with the front shorter than the top and the sides left longer than requested. Most reviewers name one particular barber as responsible for their good results, and one regular calls it their go-to for a consistently great haircut across six years of returning.

“Great spot. Starting going here while in college, now 6 years later I'm back and it's still a go-to. Solid cut, good guys, and fair price.”

“Nothing I asked for was applied — the haircut is uneven. I only realized how bad it was after I got home and washed my hair. The front is shorter than the top, and the sides were left much longer than I requested. I’ll now have to wait for it to grow back. Very disappointing.”

“Got an awesome beard trim from Chris today! Super attentive and great, clean look. Good vibes in the shop too.”

“I’m a local student and haven’t gotten a haircut in Boston since coming here. Today, I decided to go to Lessard’s, and saying I’m pleased is an understatement. I got my hair cut by Mike, and he was nothing but great throughout the whole experience. He’s a super nice guy, and the haircut was phenomenal; it looks even better than the reference photos. I usually don’t leave reviews, but this was just such a 10/10 experience. I definitely will come back soon.”
