Our story

A neighborhood shop with old-school standards.

Mario opened on Banta Place in 2018. Eight years later, the same chair, the same hands, and a clientele that became a neighborhood.

Mario's Barber Life interior

Mario's grandfather cut hair. So did his father. When Mario opened on Banta Place in 2018, the family business hit its third generation. Same scissors. Same chair design. New clients.

What started as a one-chair operation grew into the busiest shop on the block. Three barbers now, but Mario still picks up the clippers most days. He doesn't know how to retire from a chair.

If you grew up in Hackensack, you've heard the name. If you didn't — come find out why everyone keeps mentioning it.

What we stand for.

01

Three generations of barbers

Mario's grandfather started cutting hair in 1962. We've been doing this a while.

02

Neighborhood pricing

Hackensack rates, not Hoboken rates. Family discount for kids and seniors.

03

No fancy stuff

We don't sell beard products. We don't have a coffee bar. We just cut hair, and we do it well.

Come say hi.

The chair's open. So is the door.
