Stepping into Van Dyke's is like stepping back into time, when man caves existed in public. This shop has an old metal cash register, antique washing stations, antique barbering devices, ads and displays galore, giving it a relaxed, old time feel. No pink counters, no dumb sexist posters. Richard, the proprietor, is soft spoken and thoughtful: if you talk, he talks. If you feel quiet, he gives you your space. He's never been rushed, but I've never waited for my cut. Women and men both will feel comfortable here. It's been twenty years since I've been this happy with my barber.

Had an incredible experience at Skip's Barbershop in Providence. Went in for the Executive Service…read more($150) as a treat for launching my own company and switching gears professionally. The Executive Service consisted of a haircut, facial cleanse, and hot towel straight-razor shave. The experience was luxurious and Jerry the barber was outstanding. First of all, the shop is incredibly nice. There's ample street parking and the place is spacious, new, and feels like a mix of a classic barbershop with modern amenities. I liked how clean the place is. Each barber's station and the entire floor was pretty spotless. Jerry, the barber, was very friendly and a great conversationalist. I enjoyed the 90 minutes we spent together chatting. With regard to the haircut, I felt like there was great care taken with every detail. It wasn't as if I was being put through an assembly-line haircut. It was deliberate, careful, and done in steps to get everything from the fade, to the lines in the back, and around the forehead and sideburns right. When we started to get into the "spa" part of the Service, I was put back in the chair, given a hot towel, and then given a facial cleanse which was put on by one of these sonic scrubbers. Face felt unbelievably smooth and clean afterward. The straight-razor shave was equally excellent. There were at least two more hot towels involved, a careful straight-razor shave, an electric razor to make sure everything was hit, and nice-smelling after shave products, which helped soothe everything right away. If you want to splurge on yourself but not go to a traditional spa, this is the service for you. I highly recommend it. I was in and out in 90 minutes, which helps for the work schedule, but was enough time to feel like you were "treating yo self." Highly recommend!
