Signature

Our Story

Signature Cuts and Shaves is a vintage barbershop with a modern twist, offered in a setting that is deeply rooted in DC’s unique History. Master Barber and Proprietor, Julian Everett, opened Signature Cuts and Shaves in the spring of 2016 with the idea of bringing back traditional barbering services to the neighborhood he grew up in. Since that time, the shop has flourished, becoming an integral part of the Shaw/U Street neighborhood, while building a strong connection with his patrons and the community.

As a native Washingtonian, Julian grew up in a hair salon located in the Petworth area of DC. His mother, June Everett, came to the United States from Barbados in 1976, and proceeded to open her own salon on Georgia Avenue – J&J Barber & Beauty Salon. For the next 15 years, Julian would watch, learn and work under the tutelage of his mother and other barbers. By the time it was all said and done, June ultimately owned 3 successful shops in the DC area. Thus, it was only natural that Julian would become a master barber and one day turn his dream into a reality by opening his own shop, Signature Cuts and Shaves, on historic U Street.

With over 21 years of experience, Julian, along with his diverse staff of professionals, are available to provide barbering services that are classic in roots, and sophisticated in style. Whether you need a relaxing hot shave, or are looking for a classic pompadour or a burst fade, we specialize in providing a full menu of superior, individualized services that will refine your look and leave you feeling sharp and sophisticated. We always offers a hot towel following any cut and shave service. In addition, we offer a variety of complimentary beverages, including libations, on request.

This is a top notch operation all-around. I'm pretty picky about my hair, and I couldn't be more pleased. I imagine all of the barbers are of high quality.

Getting a fade for our 3.5 year old was a nightmare before discovering Signature. Most recently, Nat did a great job on the kid and then a great job giving me a proper beard trim. Much to the delight of the kid. The prices are fair and atmosphere nice and clean. Far cleaner than other shops out there.

Love this place! Great service and a real neighborhood feel. Aladdine gives a great haircut and I love that they offer a hot towel with every cut. My whole building goes here and I hope they do well. I came right before close and they didn't rush a bit. Great experiences.

Dave via Yelp

Julian is the man, clean cuts at a great spot and good price. Great clipper and scissor skills. Professional atmosphere and treatment, making appointments online is easy.

I haven't cut my hair in about a year. I had a lot to work with. Showed him a few pictures I liked to give him an idea of what I wanted. He figured it out and turned me into someone I wanted to show off to other people. Incredibly patient and detailed.

Also, good vibes at the shop. I laughed a bunch.
