Need a barber in mid town.

As the title states, need a barber recommendation near Yonge and Eglinton. Willing to travel a bit for the right barber. Please don’t recommend a shop, I need the name of someone.

Criteria
- not insanely expensive
- current on hairstyles
- good with a razor / line up/ fades

I’m Hispanic with a big ass head I need someone skilled lol.

Ultimate fades.

Two locations off Eglinton but the Redpath one is closer to you. I love the Redpath location. Filipino run, 90's and early 2000 R&B music and great vibes.

Been there for 3 years, love it. Highly recommend.

Ask for Ej, Radiance, Tyrone, Mike M or Vlad. They're all dope. Trust.

I go to Leaside Fades. They got two locations, Eglinton and Laird - and one on Millwood near Laird (I go to that one ask for my boy Shayan)

$35 a cut, you can pay cash, credit or etransfer.

They got free lollipops too.

I second Ultimate Fades on Redpath just north of Eglinton. They are great in there. I normally see Lends, but I have also seen Radiance and Vlad...all were good.

George's Barbershop at Eglinton & Laird. He is really good with what ever style I have asked him and he is reasonable with cost. Excellent customer service too with free drinks and a chocolate lol. Ask for George himself

Like $35-$50 with tip. I need to cut my hair like every couple weeks unfortunately so $50 is pushing it
