Early
Cut before the day starts.
Doors open at 6:00am. Every day, including Sunday. Most shops on this island open at eight or nine.
Because the alternative is five o'clock.
A haircut usually costs you an evening. You finish work, you sit and wait, and the thing you actually wanted to do with the evening is gone.
A six o'clock chair means the cut happens before any of that. You are sharp for the day rather than sharp for the sofa, and the evening is still yours.
The people who cannot do afternoons.
Trades starting on site at seven. Anyone on the ferry into Manhattan. Shift workers coming off nights. Parents who need the cut done before the school run rather than after it.
And on a Sunday, anyone who would rather have the whole day than lose an hour of it.
Very little.
This is the only real differentiator on the list and it is worth being plain about: there is not much else cutting hair at six in the morning in Staten Island. That is the reason the slots exist and the reason they go.
Appointment only — book the time and the chair is held. No walk-ins, so an early slot is genuinely yours rather than a gamble on turning up.
Straight answers.
What time does MisterECuts open?
6:00am, seven days a week, at 208 Lamberts Ln, Staten Island. Most barbershops on the island open at eight or nine.
Is there a barber open early in Staten Island?
MisterECuts opens at 6:00am every day including Sunday. There is very little else cutting hair on the island at that hour, which is why the early slots exist and why they book up.
Are you open on Sundays?
Yes. Open seven days a week from 6:00am, Sundays included. Sunday mornings go early, so book ahead rather than turning up.
Can I get a haircut before work?
That is what the 6:00am opening is for. A haircut is $35 and a cut with the beard is $45. Book the time and the chair is held for you — appointment only, no walk-ins.
Take the chair.
Appointment only, from 6:00am, seven days a week on Lamberts Lane.
