Our Story

Fade & Fellowship started in 2018 when barber **Marcus Bell** left a strip-mall chain to build the kind of shop he grew up in: leather chairs, slow afternoons, and everybody welcome at the door. The team is four barbers, each with their own lane — from textbook tapers to old-school straight-razor work. We keep the clippers clean, the towels hot, and the music honest. We believe a good cut is half the visit. The other half is sitting down, talking trash, and leaving a little lighter than you came in.

Client Reviews

  • “Marcus is the only barber I trust with a fade. He actually listens and the line-up is always razor straight.”

    Deon W. · Google

  • “Been coming here three years and every cut is the same sharp. Great vibes, no rush, no attitude.”

    Ray T. · Yelp

  • “Got my first straight-razor shave here and I'm hooked. Hot towels, smooth finish, best half hour of my week.”

FAQ

Do I need to book in advance?

We recommend booking a few days ahead, especially for Saturdays. Walk-ins are welcome any day if a chair is open.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Just yourself! If you've got a reference photo for the look you want, pull it up on your phone. We'll talk it through before the first cut.

Do you cut kids' hair?

Yes — we welcome kids ages 4 and up. We keep it easy and pressure-free for the first-timers.
