Barber working on a classic cut in a warm shop

More than a haircut.
A neighborhood ritual.

Benedicts Barber Shop has been a Des Plaines staple for years — a place where the chair is comfortable, the conversation is easy, and nobody rushes you out the door. We believe a great cut is about more than technique; it's about showing up as yourself and leaving feeling a little sharper.

Whether it's your first visit or your twentieth, we treat every client like a regular. No pretense, no upselling — just honest work and a friendly face.

Services built around you

Every service includes a consultation so we get it right the first time — no guesswork, no surprises.

Classic Haircut

Scissor or clipper cut tailored to your face shape and lifestyle. Includes wash, cut, and style — finished with a hot towel.

Precision line-ups, sculpting, and conditioning for beards of every length. Leave with clean edges and soft skin.

Hot Towel Shave

The old-school experience — steaming towels, rich lather, and a straight razor finish. Pure relaxation from start to finish.

First Visit Special

New to the shop? Enjoy a complimentary drink and our full attention on your first cut. We want you to feel right at home.

Senior & Youth Cuts

Patience and care for clients of all ages. Kids' cuts are relaxed and fun; senior cuts are thorough and unhurried.

Walk-ins Welcome

No appointment necessary — just show up. We serve everyone in order, and we never make you feel like you're in the way.

The details that
make the difference

It's the little things — a hot towel, a steady hand, a conversation that goes nowhere and everywhere — that turn a haircut into something worth coming back for.

Welcoming Vibe

No dress code, no attitude. Bring yourself exactly as you are — we've seen it all and we're here for it.

Clean & Comfortable

Every tool is sanitized, every chair is fresh, and the shop is spotless. Your comfort and safety come first.

Never Rushed

We don't turn chairs on a timer. Your cut gets the time it needs so you leave happy, not hurried.

Community First

We're neighbors, not a franchise. Regulars know us by name, and first-timers become friends by the third visit.

Visit Benedicts

We're right on Touhy Ave — easy to find, easy to park, and always open to the right time.
