Rated 4.8 Stars by Providence
"Best fade in Providence, hands down! I've tried 4 different shops on the North End and Blends & Shaves is on another level. The line-up is absolutely razor-sharp and they take their time to make sure it's perfect. Clean shop, great music, and friendly barbers. Highly recommend!"
"Blends & Shaves is my go-to shop on Charles St. I get the mid-skin fade and deluxe beard trim. The hot towel and straight razor lining makes it a full spa experience. Highly professional, accepts walk-ins, and they are fantastic with kids too. I bring my 7-year-old son here and he loves it."
"Brought my boys here for their back-to-school haircuts. The barbers were so patient and kind. One of my sons has sensory issues and hates clippers, but the barber was incredibly gentle, used shears, and made him feel completely safe. Their haircuts look amazing! Will absolutely be coming back."
"Authentic barber craftsmanship. The straight razor hot towel shave is incredible. Highly professional environment and the shop is immaculate. They really care about hygiene and sterilizing their equipment. Easy booking, but they always make space for walk-ins."
