Atlantic Avenue · North Raleigh
Atlantic Avenue runs parallel to Capital Boulevard through North Raleigh - and two miles over, The Dominicians is the sharp cut that Atlantic-area residents keep coming back to.
About 2 miles from the Atlantic Avenue corridor
Atlantic Avenue is one of North Raleigh's main north-south corridors, running parallel to Capital Boulevard through a mix of commercial strips, apartments, and neighborhoods. If you're on the Atlantic side, The Dominicians is about two miles west on Capital - a quick hop for a cut that's worth the trip.
Clients from the Atlantic Avenue corridor come to us because the closer options don't match the standard - 24 barbers, 18+ years of experience, and a 5-star reputation across 1,600+ reviews. A skin fade done right is worth crossing the corridor.
We're open 8:40 AM to 9:00 PM every day, with free parking out front. Walk in, or book ahead to lock in a time.
The Atlantic Avenue corridor has its share of barbershops, but few can match the combination of skill, speed, and atmosphere we've built since 2006. Our international team handles every hair texture and every style - from skin fades to beard sculpting to kids cuts.
Every service is available, so if you're coming from Atlantic Avenue, you can get the whole household taken care of in one trip instead of driving to three different places.
From Atlantic Avenue, head west to Capital Boulevard (US-1) and then south about two miles. We're at 3601 Capital Blvd, Suite 113, on the right, with free parking out front.
GoRaleigh Route 14 (Atlantic) connects to Route 1 (Capital) if you're taking the bus. Coming from Spring Forest or Mini City? You're even closer.
