The Chair

Every cut tells
a story.

Fade Mechanic started with a simple belief: a barbershop should feel like home and leave you feeling like the best version of yourself. We blend modern technique with the timeless ritual of the chair — the conversation, the precision, the confidence you walk out with.

From first fades to fresh-for-the-wedding lineups, we treat every head like it's the only one that matters.

Good to Know

Questions, answered

Nope — walk-ins are always welcome and we keep chairs open for drop-ins. That said, booking ahead guarantees your spot, especially on weekends.

A skin fade starts at $30, a cut and beard is $45, and "The Works" (cut, beard, hot towel and styling) is $55. Kids' cuts are $25 and lineups are $20.

Absolutely. We love giving the next generation their first fresh fade — patient, friendly and stress-free.

Cash, debit and all major credit cards. Tips appreciated but never expected.
