Barber & salon · Austin
Ridgeway & Sons cuts for men and women who'd rather show you than tell you. Fades, restyles, colour and the good kind of quiet — and every chair keeps a before-and-after worth scrolling for.
The shop
We never split the barbers from the stylists. A skin fade and a full head of balayage happen at neighbouring chairs, on the same brass fittings, under the same window. What they share is the standard: nobody leaves until the mirror agrees.
Book a name or book a time — the person you sat with last time remembers where you left off.
Before & after
Real chairs, real results. Grab the divider and pull — this is the last time your hair looked like the left side.
The board
Book the service or book the person — either gets you the same standard.
Scissor work up top, clippers where they belong, a blade at the neck to finish. Skin fades, taper, scissor crop — the works.
Balayage, greys blended or kept, and the long game of growing something out on purpose. Planned over visits, never rushed in one.
Hot-towel line-up, beard shape, and the ten-minute reset between the big visits so the fortnight looks after itself.
We don't do 'close enough'. We do 'come back in three weeks'.

The chairs
Book a name — they'll remember your last cut better than you will.
First chair · fades & scissor work
Third-generation, learned on this floor. Fast hands, slow opinions, and a fade you could set a watch by.
Colour & restyle
Twelve years in colour and a firm rule that no head leaves brassy. Will find four browns where you swore there was one.
The chair for the undecided
Best consult in the shop — brings the before-and-after book out before he touches the clippers. Talks you into the cut you actually wanted.
The regulars
