Brooklyn's Finest Since Day One

New York built this neighborhood —
we built the chair you sit in.

On Newkirk Place, where the corner buzz never fades and the scissors still move by hand, Ol' Time Barbershop keeps the old standard alive. No rush. No shortcuts. Just a clean cut and a conversation that actually matters.

Our Story

A Chair on Newkirk That's Always Been Yours

Ol' Time Barbershop isn't a concept. It's a corner. It's the sound of clippers humming on a Tuesday afternoon, the smell of bay rum and talc, the kind of place where the regulars know your name before you tell them yours.

We've been serving the Newkirk Place neighborhood for years — shaves, fades, beard trims, and everything in between — with the same steady hands and patient eye our customers trust. This isn't about trends. It's about showing up, doing the work right, and making sure you leave looking like the best version of yourself.

What We Do

Services Built Around the Craft

Every service at Ol' Time is delivered the way it should be — deliberate, thorough, and with an eye for detail that doesn't come from a manual.

Classic Haircut

Scissors, comb, and the kind of attention that makes a haircut last. We measure twice, cut once, and leave you looking sharp.

Wash and style included
Neck clean-up

Skin Fade

Clean from the temples down to the nape. Our fades are blended by hand, not rushed by the clock — sharp lines, smooth transitions.

Hot Towel Shave

The full experience — steaming towel, rich lather, straight razor, and a finish that leaves your face feeling like it just got a second chance.
