Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“[This place is] a neighborhood favorite. Mark, the proprietor, is very friendly and seems to know most of the people who walk through the door. The shop is open seven days a week (including very early on Saturday mornings). [They offer] consistently good haircuts finished off with hot towels and a straight-razor neck shave. [They are also] reasonably priced.” – M.S.

It is because of excellent reviews like this that Mark’s Barbershop is now able to call themselves a Top Rated Local award winner!

Not Your Average Barber Shop

We were excited to learn all about how Mark’s Barbershop has been able to build such an impressive reputation, so we sat down with the owner, Mark Varone.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that makes Mark’s Barbershop stand apart from their competitors. To start, it is clear that the staff at Mark’s really love what they do, and get along well while working as a solid team. This hard-working crew offers a variety of services, and Mark says that they employ both cosmetologists as well as barbers.

“Our goal is to make people feel better than when they came in. You make them feel good. It is all about that feeling and vibe.”

Building Success Through Consistency

Mark’s Barbershop is a family-oriented shop that has been in business for 18 years. They have managed to build such an incredible reputation over the years that we were excited to chat with Mark about some of the ways they have marketed and grown their company. He said that while they post a bit on their Facebook page, word of mouth has been their most valuable resource for new business. Many people refer their friends and family, but even more come in because they had read the glowing reviews online.

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Mark’s Barbershop has managed to. We asked if Mark could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what they had to say:

“You have to show up. Be on time and exceed everyone’s expectations. Be consistent.”


Congratulations to Mark’s Barbershop for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Mark for taking the time to speak with us!
