Jaclyn Elson opened Cuts & Lather in 2015 because she wanted men to have a barbershop that felt welcoming, did great work and charged a fair price. That’s still how both shops run. Every cut gets a real consultation, clippers and shears, and a clean finish, and on most services that means hot lather and a straight razor around the ears and neck.
We cut every kind of hair: skin fades and tapers, curly tops, classic side parts, longer scissor cuts and military cuts. Dads bring their sons, sons bring their friends, and plenty of our regulars have been in the same chair for years.
Our most popular service and the reason for the name. You get a precision clipper-and-scissor cut (fade, taper or classic), then a clean-up around the ears and neckline with warm lather and a straight razor. The razor finish stays sharp longer than a clipper edge, so the cut still looks fresh a week later.
$40
A straightforward clipper-and-scissor cut finished with clippers instead of a razor. It’s a good choice if you’re in for a quick, regular trim.
$35
A taper keeps a little length at the bottom and blends it gradually up the sides and back. It’s a clean, low-maintenance look that suits work and school. Ask for a low, mid or high taper, and your barber will show you where the line will sit before starting.
