A men's haircut with an eyebrow cleanup is $45 and takes about forty minutes. It is the same full haircut you would get on its own, plus a two minute cleanup at the end that trims the long hairs above the natural brow line, clears the unibrow zone, and pulls a few obvious strays from underneath. The goal is not to shape the brow. The goal is to make it look like nobody touched it, only better.
The ProcessWhat actually happens in the chair
- 01
The consultation
A minute or two on the haircut, and one specific question about the brows. Do you want them cleaned up or left alone. Answering "cleaned up but not shaped" is the safe answer, and it is what most guys actually want.
- 02
Wash or spray down
Wet hair sits where it wants to sit. That is when we can see it clearly. Brows stay dry for now, they get their turn at the end.
- 03
The sides
Clipper work with a guard, longer to shorter in passes. Fade or taper takes shape here.
- 04
The top and the blend
Scissors over comb section by section, then the transition from short to long gets worked until the change looks intentional instead of stepped.
- 05
The line up
Front hairline, temples, neckline. This is the perimeter work that makes the cut look finished instead of loose.
- 06
The brow cleanup
Brows combed up. Long hairs poking above the natural top line get snipped. The middle unibrow zone gets cleared. A few strays under the arch get pulled. Under two minutes. Then a splash of aftershave, a little product if you want it, and we are done.
How to ask for a men's haircut and eyebrow cleanup without guessing
1The cut
Same three things as any men's haircut: fade height (low, mid, or high), whether it goes to skin or leaves length, and top length in inches or by picture. Example: "Mid fade, one guard at the bottom, two inches on top."
2The brow direction
Say "clean up, do not shape." Cleanup means the middle gets cleared and the length gets trimmed. Shape means the barber starts pulling from the top and the arch, which is how you end up looking like you got them done. Almost nobody wants that. Say cleanup.
3The brow tools
If you have a preference between tweezers and a trimmer for the strays, say so. Tweezers pull one hair at a time and last longer. A trimmer is faster and less sharp on sensitive skin. Most guys do not care, and that is fine, the barber will pick.
Who a men's haircut and eyebrow cleanup is for
Anyone whose brows have started doing their own thing. It is the smallest add on the menu and one of the biggest differences in the mirror.
Heavy or wiry brows benefit the most because a trim knocks down the visual weight without changing the shape. Guys over about thirty five almost always need the length trim because brow hairs get longer and coarser with age. Anyone with a persistent unibrow shadow gets ten years of that shadow removed in about twenty seconds. Lighter brows and younger guys usually only need the middle cleared and one or two strays pulled.
You have a look in mind
You know the look, or you have seen it on someone. Bring a picture, ideally of a person whose hair matches yours in texture. We translate the picture to your head.
You have no idea what suits you
Tell us what you do for work, whether you actually style your hair or comb it once and go, and how often you get cut. That is enough for a good barber to steer you toward something you will enjoy wearing.
How often to come back for a fresh cut and cleanup
- Every haircutThe easiest cadence
- Every other haircutFine for guys with lighter brows or slower growth
- Once a seasonThe minimum
- Special occasion onlyWedding, first date, portrait day
The nice part is you do not have to remember. The barber sees the growth from the chair and can tell you when it is time. If they say the brows look fine, they look fine.
Common QuestionsFAQ
Will people notice the brows?
Only that you look tidier. Done right nobody says "your brows look done." That is the whole point.
Can I just get the brows without a haircut?
Yes. The standalone eyebrow service is $7 and lives on its own page. This $45 service is for guys who are getting cut anyway and want to add the cleanup on.
Do you wax the brows?
No. We trim with scissors and pull strays with tweezers or a small trimmer. Wax is a salon service. If you want wax specifically, that is not something we do here.
How long does the cleanup add?
About two minutes at the end of the cut. The full appointment is forty to fifty minutes with a standard haircut.
Will you shape them into an arch?
No, and please do not ask us to. That look reads unnatural on most men. We remove what is out of place and leave the shape you already have.
Does the cleanup hurt?
The scissor trim on the length does not hurt at all. Tweezing a few strays stings for a second, less than a wax, more than nothing. Most guys do not flinch.
What if my brows are not that heavy?
Then this service might not be worth the extra five dollars this month. Look in a mirror, if there is not much to remove, skip it and revisit next cut.
Can you fix brows somebody else over trimmed?
Not really. We can even out what is there and clean the middle, but hair has to grow back on its own. Four to eight weeks depending on how much was taken.
Do you use a razor near the eyes?
No razor near the eyes. Scissors on length, tweezers or a small detail trimmer on the strays. Safer, cleaner, and easier to control.
Should I bring a picture of brows I like?
Not necessary. Cleanup is about removing what is out of place, not matching somebody else's brows. If you have a picture you like, bring it, but a good barber can do this without a reference.
Do you take walk ins?
Yes. Same walk in policy as any haircut. Shortest waits are before eleven in the morning Tuesday through Thursday.
How much extra is it compared to a standard cut?
Five dollars over the standard men's haircut. The haircut alone is $40, the haircut with eyebrows is $45.
Is this for older guys only?
No. Brows get wiry with age, so older gentlemen use this service the most, but any guy with heavy brows or a persistent unibrow benefits at any age.
