Inn Street Barbershop
Newburyport
It’s not every day you find an almost 100-year-old barbershop (2026 will mark 100 years, to be exact!). Inn Street Barbershop is a sure bet for those who want to look their best and enjoy a visit to the beautiful seaside community of Newburyport. Their stylists will give you a classic cut or something in the latest fashion, and they also offer hot lather shaves. They are a walk-in barbershop, open seven days a week, and are kid-friendly to boot!

Badabing Barbershop and Shave Parlor
Salem
The Badabing Barbershop and Shave Parlor has been around since 2016 and is located in historic Salem. This is a shop that cuts hair, not corners. At Badabing, every haircut ends with a straight-razor neck shave. They also have a shoeshine station and offer two-towel hot steam shaves. Pro tip: Make sure you visit on Sinatra Saturdays, when they spin the best of Ol’ Blue Eyes’ live Vegas hits.
