“ I highly recommend Watergate Cuts. I’ve been going there for about 7 or 8 years. All the guys are great. I usually go to Hector Gaona. They just remodeled and the shop looks great ”
“ I go there every 2 weeks! Marcelo never disappoints! The price is perfect, especially for the final product! I mean, come on, other barber shops charge about 75 and can’t do half of the job these guys can! Let alone blend! (I would never trust anyone but them with my beard for sure). Anyways, I’ve been coming here since October, and I have never been disappointed! I’m proud to be a loyal costumer. Hit them up! ”
“ So glad I was recommended to this shop. Specifically, I was recommended to take my 2-year-old at the time (now 3) son to Carlos. He’s been a dream when it comes to cutting my sons hair. Carlos has always been very patient with him. He makes him feel comfortable by speaking him and explaining what he’s doing through the whole process. & then the cut itself is nice and clean! Cost is a little more than our local barbershops but I think it’s worth it. We live a good 45 minutes away and never mind the drive and always look forward to going to the shop. They’ve also recently renovated and it looks great! ”
“ A great place to get a great cut in America’s capital!! Also located in a historic campus & Barbershop!! Rodrigo fit me in his schedule & did not disappoint my high expectations!! I will be back when I’m in the area again & DEFINITELY recommend this place for a great fade!! Owner Hector & other Barber, Carlos, all know how to take care of their customers & truly get to know their “regulars.” Thanks again, Rodrigo!! Alan...from the cold state of Minnesota ”
“ It's been 1.5 years since I moved to USA, but I still couldn't find a barber for myself. Until I discovered Watergate Barber. I highly recommend my artist, his name is Marcelo. He is a very talented stylist. He knows what kind of haircut you need, just by looking at you. I recommend him to all my friends. Some of my friends have gotten their haircut with Marcelo, and are very happy with the result. ”
“ Absolutely on point my man Rodrigo hooked me up and brought me back from the dead and made me look like somebody again lol if you want a real haircut check him out he will hook you up. ”
“ Awesome mens cut for 35. Friendly barbers! I’ll definitely be taking my talents back! ”
“ I loved my cut! My barber Carlos did a fantastic job and also took his time to make sure my cut came out perfect. The staff were very professional and made you feel welcome upon arrival. Equipment was very well maintained and the entire studio looked sparkling clean. I definitely would recommend this place to anyone in the area looking for a cut. Ask for Carlos, he’ll take care of you! ”
