Mel’s Barbershop is bringing back “Customer Service Excellence”! We specialize in the newest hip styles as well as the classic gentlemen’s cut. If you really want a treat, we offer the traditional hot lather shave and hot towel treatment. We use a straight razor to get those lines crisp and clean and the shaves close.

We cater to all ages, so dads and sons come on in and join us for an old-fashioned Barbershop experience and enjoy a great cup of coffee from our coffee bar. See you soon!


We require a 24-hour notice of cancellation, if you fail to do so within that time it will be the price of the service you booked.

Operating hours: 9 to 6 Tuesday-Friday, 9 to 4 on Saturday, Closed on Sundays and Mondays

JOSHUA


BARBER

Joshua Jimenez, a California native turned Florida resident since '99.

Juggling life with four awesome kids, I stumbled into the world of barbering two years ago, and it's been pure bliss ever since.

Regret? Only that I didn't start sooner. As I chase the dream of becoming the best, my heart is set on sharing the art of barbering, paving the way for others to find their passion in every clip and snip.
