Our Story
“Temple of Groom is a ridiculous name, yet totally deserved, because Guerrero’s 655-square-foot shop in Mid-Cambridge is a gorgeous Victorian oasis” (Cambridge Day, 2018). The barbershop is a tribute to the history and culture that brought New England to life -- a concept that evokes the Victorian and French romantic era in keeping with the history that surrounds the city. The barbershop combines the traditional with the modern through a mid-19th century French decor. The glamor of its interior converges with the demand of today's customer, offering high-quality service as we deliver skilled classic and contemporary haircuts.
MEET THE FOUNDER
Julio Guerrero is originally from the Dominican Republic. He began cutting hair in his grandmother's backyard under a tree with a piece of a broken mirror and an old wooden chair. He immediately gained a loyal following among his friends.
Julio has been a part of the grooming industry in Boston since 2012. He worked alongside one of the area's top barbers, gaining invaluable experience and sharpening his skills. Julio's dream of opening his own barbershop was finally realized in May 2018 with the opening of Temple of Groom in Cambridge. He and his team provide professional and high-quality services to the community within a beautiful and welcoming environment. Julio's second shop, located in Kenmore, opened in August 2021.
