Culture, Detail, and a Clean Chair

The Parlor is Libertyville’s barbershop for every background and every style. Fades, classic cuts, kids’ haircuts, and beard work from four barbers who treat every client like family

About The Parlor

Culture and Detail in a Professional Room

We opened The Parlor to bring the kind of detail you’d expect from a “hood shop” into a clean, modern, professional room.

The result: a shop where anyone from any neighborhood in northern Lake County can sit down, get cut by someone who cares, and walk out feeling like they belong.

Skilled in Every Style

Classic cuts, modern fades, textured crops, beard work, kids’ cuts. Our barbers cut every hair type and every style.

Family-Like Service

We greet every client like we’ve known them for years. Real consultations, real conversations, real follow-through.

Clean, Modern Shop

Family-safe music, sports on the TV, clean chairs, and a welcoming room from the second you walk in.

Our Services

Simple Menu. Extra Mile on Every Cut.

Four services, cut with care. We keep the menu short on purpose so every service gets full attention. Every cut starts with a real consultation and ends with a check-in, so you walk out loving the result.

Men’s Haircut

Classic tapers, modern fades, textured crops, scissor cuts. Whatever style you’re going for, we dial it in.

Kids’ Haircut

Patient, friendly cuts for younger clients in a family-friendly shop. Fades, tapers, scissor cuts, whatever your kid (or you) wants.

Haircut + Beard

Full service. Complete cut up top plus detailed beard work. The option most of our regulars book.

Line-Up + Beard

Crisp line work around the hairline with a precise beard trim. Quick, sharp, huge difference.

Fades (Specialty)

Skin, taper, low, mid, high. Fades are our #1 requested service and what clients drive in from across Lake County for.

First-Time Walk-In

Never been here? Our walk-in rates are flat and simple. See pricing below and stop by.

Come See the Difference Yourself

The best way to understand The Parlor is to sit in the chair. Book a slot on Booksy, or walk in and we’ll fit you in around our appointments.

Why Choose Us

Northern Lake County’s Go-To for Clean Cuts

We’re on Milwaukee Avenue in Libertyville, central to Vernon Hills, Mundelein, Lake Forest, Gurnee, Grayslake, Round Lake, Waukegan, and Great Lakes Naval Station. Clients drive in from all over because of what they get in the chair: a real consultation, a cut done with care, and a shop that treats them like a regular from visit one.

We’re relational, not transactional. That shows up in everything we do, from how we greet walk-ins to how we check in mid-cut to make sure the style is what you wanted.
