The Best Barber Shops in Dubai

Before we get right into our top picks for the best barber shops in Dubai, here are the factors we considered for our entries on this list :

Service – A great barbershop has barbers that make their customers feel comfortable, know how to communicate and collaborate with them, and have the skills to execute their vision.

Atmosphere – We also considered the ambiance composed of the shop’s decor, cleanliness, and other modern amenities.

Range of services – Barber shops aren’t just for haircuts, so we considered the number of services they also offer such as beard trims, shoe shines, manicures, etc.

Location – Lastly, it’s important for us to consider its location and accessibility because getting a hair cut should not be an inconvenience, and the experience should be able to fit into anyone’s schedule.

2. Bô Barbershop

Bô Barbershop proves that great things come in tiny cozy barber shops. With only 3 chairs and a passionate and highly competent team, this barber shop prioritizes the quality of service more than the quantity.

Johnny has been one of its loyal customers for the past 3 years. He comes in every month for his usual and told us he always comes out feeling like himself again.

We love that the shop has a mellowed-out chill vibe that resonates in its service. The priority is to get customers relaxed and comfortable and get that mindset to stay until the next haircut.

The shop’s decor is inspired by its love of the outdoors, camping, and surfing. The accents are drawn from earthy colors, like the khaki leather upholstery and the deep browns on the wall panels.

Besides that, we also love that its barista serves great coffee to accompany each customer in their grooming journey.

It also sells some apparel that we found to be actually quite chic, despite the relative disconnection to the services the shop offers.

As for the range of its services, we love that it covers the basics, from haircuts to beard trimming. On top of that, it also has hair treatments and a face mask option.

However, we noticed that it lacks services for the nails, which is not necessary but could be a great addition to its offerings.

On the topic of its location, while the shop only has one branch — which is such a big drawback for a barber shop that only has 3 chairs — we do love the fact that it’s right in the middle of the city.

Found in Business Bay, surrounded by offices, hotels, and commercial destinations, it’s a prime location that’s perfect for a great barbershop like this one.

A barber shop unlike any other in the world

“ Genuinely the best barber I’ve ever had. After getting cuts around the world, I still haven’t found an artist as skilled as Oliver. Service is also unparalleled to top it off. An amazing team as well. A vibe you won’t find anywhere, great music and great ambiance.” —Imraan Karim, Google Reviews

“ It is my first time at Bô’s and I am impressed with the experience. V is helpful and able to understand the hair type and texture, thus enabling him to give the best haircut for you. Great service, lovely vibes and they do serve coffee for free. Highly recommended.” —Mervin Joseph, Google Reviews

3. Goodfellas Dubai

Goodfellas Dubai is a barber shop that was created for those who appreciate premium quality, time and flawless looks. First and foremost a gentleman’s salon, this barber shop takes pride in its reasonable prices for the best quality services.

Naji, who has been going to Goodfellas for a year now, keeps coming back because of its friendly barbers and close-knit service.

We love how the barbers here become friends with their customers, making it easier to communicate with them about the haircut they want to get.

We also love that the barbers take their time to cut, making sure every line and detail gets the attention it deserves. However, we have to admit the haircuts do take a while to finish, so make sure you have time on your hands.

As for its atmosphere, we love the mix of elegance and industrial masculinity in the interior. While brick walls and distressed wooden shelves are overplayed in barber shops, we really appreciate the attention to detail that comes with achieving it.

The comfy leather upholstery and the intricate knobs on the drawers give that authentically vintage look to the space.

Where it starts to all apart for us is in its range of services, or the lack thereof. Sadly, Goodfellas Dubai only offers haircuts, shaving, and beard and mustache trimming.

And while these cover the basics of a barber shop’s services, it is severely lacking in specialized services that do more than just maintain the length and look of hair.

We really think that hair treatments, manicures and pedicures, and facial treatments would really go a long way for this barber shop.

As for its location, Goodfellas is located in downtown Dubai, accessible to almost everyone in the city. It’s a great location because it serves both locals and tourists, with the shop found in one of the biggest commercial destinations downtown.

Glad I found them the first time around

“ I got my first haircut / shave in Dubai here and I’ve never gone anywhere else. Zaid does a fantastic job and I’d be hard pressed to find someone else that would do a better job. It’s just nice to sit in the chair, say nothing and he knows exactly what to do. I highly recommend Zaid and GoodFellas for your next haircut.”

I highly recommend them

“ I have been with Goodfellas Vintage since I moved to Dubai. After trying a few barbers I met BASEL and ever since I have been cutting my hair, shaving, and fading with him.

He looks for detail and attention and is a great modest barber.

Highly recommended!!!!

Thanks for the great consistent haircuts and beards”
