New Bern Avenue is one of Raleigh's busiest corridors, lined with barbershops, salons, and grooming spots. But if you want the sharpest cut in Raleigh, The Dominicans Barbershop is worth the 4-mile drive north on Capital Boulevard.
New Bern Ave has a growing Hispanic population (the 27610 zip code is 18.5% Hispanic), and many of those residents make the short trip to our shop on Capital Blvd for a cut they can't get anywhere else in the area.
With 24 barbers, 5.0 stars, and 1,600+ Google reviews, we're the highest-rated barbershop serving the New Bern Avenue corridor. Open 7 days a week from 8:40 AM to 9:00 PM. Walk-ins always welcome.
From New Bern Ave to The Dominicans
Getting to The Dominicans from New Bern Avenue is straightforward: take New Bern Ave west toward downtown, then head north on Capital Boulevard. We're at 3601 Capital Blvd, Suite 113, Raleigh, NC 27604 - about 4 miles from the New Bern Ave corridor, roughly a 10-minute drive.
Free parking is available right in front of the shop. You can park, walk in, and be in a chair within minutes - even on weekends, thanks to our 24-barber team.
If you're coming from the Tower Shopping Center area or the New Bern Ave barbershops, we're a quick trip north. Many of our New Bern Ave clients combine errands with a fresh cut.
What makes us different from New Bern Ave barbershops
New Bern Avenue has several barbershops - Billionaire's Barbershop Tower, Luis Barber, and others. Here's why The Dominicans stands out: 24 barbers on the floor (most New Bern Ave shops have 2-4), 5.0-star rating with 1,600+ reviews (the highest in Raleigh), bilingual barbers (English and Spanish), expertise in all hair types including Dominican fades, and nearly 20 years of experience since 2006.
We're also open longer - 8:40 AM to 9:00 PM, 7 days a week. Many New Bern Ave shops close earlier or aren't open on Sundays. We're always open.
And our cuts are consistent. With 24 barbers trained in the same techniques, you get the same quality cut no matter who's in the chair. That consistency is why our clients keep coming back.
