Barber Shop near Six Corners, Chicago

Six Corners is the intersection where Milwaukee Avenue, Irving Park Road and Cicero Avenue all meet — the old commercial heart of this part of the Northwest Side, and the landmark most people navigate by. Jose's Barber Shop is a couple of blocks north of it on Milwaukee, close enough to make a haircut something you fold into everything else you were already doing down there.

That suits how the shop actually gets used. People come in before or after the shopping run, park once, and walk. If you're already at Six Corners and you want a fade, a line-up or a beard shave, you're a few minutes away — and the online booking exists precisely so you can time it rather than stand around waiting.

The Irving Park Road buses and the Milwaukee Avenue route both put you within a short walk of the door, and the Blue Line's Irving Park station is a straightforward ride east on Irving Park Road. Walk-ins are welcome six days a week; Sunday the shop is closed.
