Barbering isn’t just what I do — it’s who I am. I’m Ron, the owner of Ron the Barber NYC, and I come from a long line of barbers. This craft has been in my family for four generations. My great-grandfather started with a pair of scissors and a dream, and that dream was passed down through the hands of my grandfather and my father. Now, it’s my turn to carry that legacy forward — right here in the heart of Manhattan.

​

Growing up, the barbershop felt like home. I spent countless hours watching my father behind the chair — the way he connected with people, the pride he took in every cut, and the trust his clients placed in him. That’s where I learned that barbering is more than just a haircut — it’s a relationship, a tradition, and an art form. By the time I held my first set of clippers, I already understood the responsibility that came with them.

Before opening my own shop, I spent three years working in a Korean barbershop, which gave me hands-on experience with Asian hair textures — something many barbers shy away from. I learned how to work with thick, straight, and coarse hair types, mastering the techniques needed for clean fades, precision lines, and seamless blending. That experience taught me not just how to cut different types of hair, but how to listen — really listen — to what each client wants and deliver it with care and skill.

​

At Ron the Barber NYC, I bring that same dedication to every service. Whether you're coming in for a sharp skin fade, a classic scissor cut, or just a clean-up and beard shape, you can expect precision, consistency, and real attention to detail. This shop isn’t about rushing people in and out — it’s about quality, connection, and helping people walk out feeling like their best selves.

If you're looking for a barber with deep roots, real experience, and a passion for the craft — welcome. You’re in the right chair.
