The Way It Used to Be

Remember the old-time barber shop that dad took you to when you were a kid? Every man remembers his first trip to the barber with his dad or grandpa. The red and white pole outside, the big leather chairs, and maybe even a phone book to sit on...

Capistrano Barbershop is owned and operated by Faraj Capistrano, a Master Barber providing old world flavor and service of days gone by. We provide traditional and short hair cuts as well as contemporary men's hairstyles. You get the nostalgia of yesteryear in a classy, nostalgic setting full of interesting men and great conversation.

We are proud to offer this classic barbershop approach to the Annapolis community. Gentlemen, come in and lose yourself in a genuinely old-fashioned barber shop experience. You will leave looking and feeling manlier than you have in years!

What They're Saying About Us

I bring my father to Capistrano for a haircut and a shave. My 93 year old father suffered a traumatic brain injury. These gentlemen are so kind. They help get him into the shop and make him comfortable. They are gentle and excellent in their profession. More importantly, they make my father feel good about himself.

It's the best neighborhood barbershop out there. Greeted by name every time, and if it's your first time you're guaranteed to be remembered and treated like a friend every time you return. The service is excellent no matter whose chair you sit in.
— Jimmy S., 2017
You want a REAL barber.. come here. Great atmosphere. Great cuts. Straight razor edge up.. all the guys are great.

I've been to many barbers in the Annapolis area, and these guys set the bar at the very top. The barbers here don't just cut hair — they're artists. I have a job interview tomorrow, and I have never felt better about it!
— Nicholas M., 2017
A true barber shop, dry cut, good shave, lots of chit-chat. Faraj has got a nice set up and makes you remember days long ago of what character and diversity a great barber shop can have.

This is the type of barber shop you only see in the movies. You walk in, it's crowded with men and women talking and enjoying the Frank Sinatra station. One perfect haircut later, this place has made a life long customer.
— Anthony H.
My son had a "hair emergency" on a Friday afternoon. Faraj worked my son into his schedule and made us feel better about the whole process. We found the barbers to be friendly, professional, and responsive. Capistrano is my go-to recommendation!

It harkens back to a time where everybody knows your name when you walk in.
