DUMBO’s waterfront skyline and Brooklyn Heights’ historic brownstones set the stage for elevated grooming. Premium Barber Shop—in the heart of DUMBO—offers luxury cuts and shaves that cater to discerning men. With perspectives ranging from Manhattan’s silver spires to Brooklyn’s artisanal scene, our barbers combine meticulous technique with curated ambiance. In 2025, we refine men’s grooming—precision fades, scissor-over-comb scissors work, straight-razor shaves, and bespoke beard sculpting.
Our barbers use Japanese-engineered clippers to create seamless blends from #1 to #0.5 guards, sculpting edges at the temple and nape with straight-edge razors for unmatched crispness. This approach suits Brooklyn Heights professionals who commute across the Manhattan Bridge and desire a polished look that stands out under the DUMBO skyline. Whether you ride the East River ferry or bike along Brooklyn Bridge Park, your fade holds shape through humidity and wind.
Scissor-over-comb work elevates scissor cuts to art. Hidden behind industrial-era brick walls are barbers who lift hair at precise angles—cutting each strand for natural flow. This technique yields layered shapes and prevents “helmet head” under DUMBO’s fluctuating temperatures—80°F summers and 40°F winters. Ideal for artists booking gallery openings in the neighborhood, this method ensures texture that endures both indoor AC and outdoor breezes.
We map beard growth patterns—aligning with face shape to create modern short boxed beards or full beards with defined cheek lines. “Brooklyn Beard Butter” and “Brooklyn Boardroom Pomade” keep facial hair soft and tamed. Clients spend afternoons at nearby Brooklyn Roasting Company cafes while their beards are shaped to perfection.
The atmosphere matches our service—antique barber chairs, exposed brick walls, and local artwork create a refined yet relaxed vibe. Chill playlists shift from jazz standards in the morning to mellow indie in the afternoon, reflecting DUMBO’s creative pulse. Complimentary craft beverages from Brooklyn Brewery await, ensuring clients feel at home between precise service steps.
At-home maintenance is straightforward. Use a sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and weekly deep-conditioning mask to maintain hair health against DUMBO’s tap water hardness. For fades, apply a pea-sized amount of “DUMBO Matte Clay” to dry hair, combing lightly for hold. Beard care involves nightly application of “Brooklyn Beard Oil” to keep hair conditioned in winter’s dry air.
Our Luxury Package—$120—includes a premium scissor or clipper-cut, straight-razor shave, hot-towel scalp treatment, and beverage of choice. The “DUMBO Duo” pairs a haircut with a beard trim for $80—popular among artists heading to gallery openings at The Powerhouse. Premium Barber Shop sponsors local community events, from DUMBO Arts Festival pop-ups to Brooklyn Heights historical society fundraisers.

Weekday early-morning slots (7 AM–10 AM) suit commuters, while evenings (6 PM–8 PM) fill with locals enjoying post-work grooming.
