A Barbershop Williamsburg Keeps Coming Back To
Williamsburg is full of barbershops, and plenty of people who live there still make the short trip north to Franklin Street. Some of our longest-standing clients first found us as “the barber in Williamsburg”, and they never left. Here is why, and how to get here.
Where our story began
Williamsburg is not just next door: it is where Land of Barbers started. Enrico opened the first shop on Graham Avenue in 2015, moved to Greenpoint Avenue in 2017, and since 2021 we have been at 146 Franklin Street. That is why some of our oldest Google reviews still call us “the best barber in Williamsburg”: they were written there. Enrico has been cutting hair since he was 13, and the same craft came with us up the G.
What our clients say
“Absolutely the best barber in Williamsburg hands down. […] They listen and give you what you ask for. They’re very hospitable and always offer a beer or a coffee which is nice. Each cut is finished with a wash, warm face towel, and styling.”
— Rob C., Google review
“Very nice place where to get a cut, a cappuccino or a prosecco and some great advice about hair style.”
— Luca B., Google review
“Enrico is my go to in the neighborhood. What’s great is I can give him a general idea of what I have in mind and then he’ll talk through what he’ll do and give advice.”
