About Manhattan BarbershopExpert Barbering in Chelsea & Midtown Since 2005

Two locations, 9 master barbers, and a commitment to delivering the finest haircuts, grooming, and premium services Manhattan has to offer.

Our Story

Manhattan Barbershop NYC opened its doors in 2005 with a simple mission: bring traditional barbershop excellence to modern Manhattan. What started as a single Chelsea location has grown into two thriving shops serving Manhattan professionals and residents who refuse to compromise on quality.

Our Chelsea location at 238 8th Avenue became a neighborhood institution, known for expert fades, classic cuts, and a growing menu of premium services—massage therapy, hair coloring, facials, and grooming treatments you won't find at typical barbershops. In 2015, we expanded to Midtown to serve busy professionals near Grand Central Terminal who needed consistent, high-quality cuts without the trek downtown.

Today, our team of 9 master barbers brings over 100 combined years of experience. We've built our reputation on precision, consistency, and genuine relationships with our clients. From Wall Street executives to creative professionals, artists to local residents, we serve Manhattan's diverse community with the same dedication to excellence.

Whether you need a sharp fade before a big presentation, a traditional hot towel shave, or a complete grooming experience with massage and facial treatments, Manhattan Barbershop delivers. Walk-ins welcome, same-day appointments available, and a team that actually cares about your look.
