The chairs on Oak Avenue have been full for over sixty years
A classic neighborhood barbershop where precision cuts, hot-towel shaves, and clean beard trims come with good conversation. Walk in anytime, or book your chair ahead — either way, you're always welcome.
Same corner, same craft, since 1962
Oak Ave Barber opened its doors in 1962, when a straight razor and a steady hand were all a barber needed to earn a neighborhood's trust. Three generations later, the striped pole still turns outside our Oak Avenue window, and the chairs are still full.
We've kept what matters — the hot towels, the careful line-up, the honest advice about what will actually work for your hair — while sharpening our skills for the styles of today. Sit down, relax, and let us take care of the rest.
