It is a wretched taste to be gratified with mediocrity when the excellent lies before us.

– Isaac D’Israeli

An institution of professional style, Bristle & Blade’s barbers are passionate about their craft. Our team members have been trained in European, continental and classic hair styling, with ongoing education in the most current trends and techniques.

Our goal is to focus on you and ensuring your personalized, relaxing experience, so you can put your cares aside while you get your hair cut or beard trimmed.

We cater to your schedule, offering numerous early morning or late evening and weekend appointments. Enjoy a cup of espresso and engaging conversation while you’re with us.

We are conveniently located a mile from I-84 in the vibrant Elmwood section of West Hartford.
