Barber Nico has been a neighbourhood staple in Burnaby for over 10 years, known for precision men’s cuts and friendly, old-school barbering with a modern twist. Walk into a compact, 700-square-foot shop on a busy corner and you’ll notice the mix of vintage barber chairs and contemporary tools, everything arranged for efficient, quality service. They specialise in fades, beard sculpting and classic hot-towel shaves, and have built a reputation for consistently crisp lines and reliable timing.

Their core services are straightforward and well-priced: men’s cuts from $30, skin and low fades, children’s cuts, beard trims and straight-razor hot shaves using Proraso shaving products. They also offer clipper-free scissor-over-comb work for clients seeking a softer finish. For maintenance, Barber Nico stocks Aftershave Balm by Proraso, Hanz de Fuko styling paste and Feather professional razors, so you can keep the look fresh between visits. Walk-ins are welcome, but they keep a friendly online booking system for appointments during peak evenings and weekends.

The team is small but experienced, led by Nico himself who trained at the Vancouver Barber Academy and has 12 years behind the chair. Expect practical conversation and skilled hands, not pushy upsells. Appointments run on time; most cuts take 25 to 40 minutes depending on detail. They prep with a warm towel, consult on face shape and hair texture, then finish with tailored product recommendations and quick styling tips you can repeat at home.

People choose Barber Nico because it feels like visiting a good neighbour who knows your name and your haircut. Locals from nearby Metrotown and Glenlyon call it their go-to because the results are dependable and the atmosphere is relaxed.
