Questions we get a lot

Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

Either works. Walk-ins are welcome any time we're open. If you want a guaranteed time, use the booking form above or call ahead.

How much is a fade at The Strand?

Fades start at $30. The exact price depends on length and style — your barber will confirm before starting.

Is The Strand open on Saturday?

Yes — Saturdays 9am to 3pm. It's our busiest day, so come early if you want a short wait.

Do you cut kids' hair?

Yes, kids 12 and under are $20 and up. Let us know if it's a first haircut so we can take it slow.

Where do I park?

There's free lot parking right in front of the plaza at 11012 4th St N.

Can I show a picture of the fade I want?

Definitely — bring a photo or pull one up on your phone. It helps your barber match the length and line you're after.

Do you do beard trims and hot towel shaves?

Yes to both. Beard trims start at $15, hot towel shaves start at $25.

Is the shop accessible?

The shop is on the ground floor. If you need a specific accommodation, give us a call and we'll make sure it works for you.

Next open chair is closer than you think.

Call, text, or book online — either way you'll be out the door looking sharp.
