// THE ROSTER
Prices vary by barber. Each chair sets its own rate based on experience and service. Book direct on Vagaro to see live availability.
Barber · Owner-operator chair
Gabe is the chair with the longest line of regulars. Clients have been coming back to him on a two-week rotation for nearly a decade. Precision cuts, no rush, no shortcuts.
Barber · @yourbarbershy
Consistent, careful, communicative. Shy is known around Phoenix for line-ups and edge-ups so clean they look drawn on. Takes his time, talks through what you want, and never rushes.
Barber · Detail specialist
Jorge studies the hair before he touches a clipper. Different hair types get different approaches, and it shows — every cut comes out dialed in. Clients call his work "A1."
Barber · @obeycedes
Mercedes brings a stylist's eye to the chair — strong on shape, finish, and the small details most barbers skip. Equally comfortable with classic cuts and modern looks.
Barber · @a.verycleancut
The handle says it: clean cut, every cut. Avery's chair leans crisp — tight tapers, sharp parts, lines you can measure. A go-to for clients who want their cut to land the same way every visit.
Barber · Beard & cut combo
Franco runs a full-service chair — cut, beard, hot towel, the whole sit-down. Bring a reference photo or describe what you want; he'll tell you straight if it'll work with your hair.
Barber · Schedule-friendly chair
Jerex builds his book around his clients. He'll work with your schedule, accommodate odd hours when he can, and deliver the same cut every time. Loyal regulars stick with him for years.

"From one barber to another, I don't say this lightly: Gabe is elite. He's been cutting me and my sons for years, and every single cut is clean, intentional, and dialed in. No rush jobs. No shortcuts. Just consistent excellence. Ask for Gabe."

"I just wanted to say that you probably gave me the best hair cut I've had in years! What makes you dope is you actually listened to what I told you. You did exactly what I asked for! I appreciate that on so many levels!"
