Howell's Neighborhood Barber Shop
Downtown Barber has served families and generations of Howell in a storefront that has been a barber shop for almost seventy years. Our clients come from all walks of life in this community, and we carry that heritage forward today. We take pride in keeping our shop clean and welcoming. You'll find coffee, hot chocolate, and cookies on the counter, and every child leaves with a lollipop. People come here for a good haircut and the relaxed, friendly atmosphere.
Since 2018 we have given the shop a full renovation with a modern vintage look, while keeping everything a classic barber shop should have, from a good chair and a hot towel to a barber who remembers your cut.
Take a look at the haircuts and fades in our gallery. We also serve Farmingdale, Wall Township, Freehold and Ramtown.

I have gotten my hair cut here quite a few times and have never been disappointed! Very cool atmosphere and a comfortable waiting room with cookies! The barbers are very kind and accommodating. My go to is Breanne, she is amazing and always does a great job. No complaints whatsoever.
I've had April doing my hair forever. When you walk in, you are greeted by everyone; makes you feel welcomed, warm and important! I would truly vote this Best Barber Shop in Monmouth County HANDS DOWN!!! Keep up the great work!
Love Downtown Barber! They have been cutting my kids hair cut for years. This time it came with a lesson on how to do his own hair so Mom doesn't have too. 🥰❤️
My grandson was very happy with the service. They listen to him (he is about to turn 13) so he likes that they talk to him and ask his opinion on the cut.
Always a great experience here! The place is great and they always do a great job, even on my surly teenager!
Love love love! The place, the people the service and coffee too. Always welcoming and fun conversation!
Super clean and friendly barbershop. They take their time and do a great job.

Book an AppointmentA Barber Shop Inside Howell Township
Howell wraps completely around Farmingdale. Geographers call that a doughnut town, and it means our shop on Main Street sits inside Howell on every side. The township was far larger once. When it was formed in 1801 it took in what is now Wall Township, Lakewood, Brick and every borough along the ocean from Barnegat Inlet up to Belmar. Marl was dug out of the Manasquan River here from 1830 and shipped to farms across the state.
Our storefront has been a barber shop for almost seventy years of that history. Same street, same trade, same room.
