  • Kat Lindstrom

    I became a barber stylist because I love being around people and helping them feel confident.

    Bringing my creative side into my career makes it feel less like work and more like a passion.

    I do it all—men’s and women’s haircuts, color, and perms—making sure each client leaves feeling great with a style that suits them perfectly.

  • Damion Godfrey

    I have a passion for making people feel good and look great, and I take pride in everything I do. Specializing in traditional and classic men's cuts, I also have training in hair replacement systems, which allows me to offer customized solutions to meet my clients' unique needs.

    Education is something I always strive to take advantage of, no matter my skill level. I believe there's always something new to learn. Outside of work, I'm an avid fly fisherman, spending time exploring the rivers of Idaho. I'm also a huge music fan, especially metal, and you’ll usually find me jamming out to something. On top of that, I’m a dedicated Dungeons and Dragons player, enjoying the game with friends every other Saturday.

  • Gavin Bailey

    I became a barber because I’ve always wanted to own my own business and create something special. There’s nothing more rewarding than having clients leave the chair with a clean cut and feeling more confident.

    My focus is making sure each person walks out feeling sharp.

    I do everything from fades to beard trims; men’s and boy’s cuts!

    Appointments available on Sundays, message me!

  • Eddy Solis

    My barbering journey started as a teenager when I couldn’t afford haircuts, so I learned to cut my own hair.

    That turned into cutting hair for family and friends, and before I knew it, I fell in love with the art and decided to make it my career.

    I strive to be well-rounded and offer all types of cuts and services, except for facials or anything more suited for a stylist.

  • Janiece Carpenter

    With nearly a decade of experience as a barber, I bring passion and artistry to every haircut. From clean fades to intricate designs and precise razor work, I pride myself on creating styles that make my clients feel confident. My love for drawing and art inspires my craft, adding a creative edge to every detail. Beyond the barber chair, I’m a proud parent of two, finding joy and balance in family life and my profession.

  • Tori Morice

    With over 7 years of experience, I’m a dedicated barber who combines precision and patience with great conversation and humor. As an upbeat mom and animal lover, I’m passionate about providing top-notch services while keeping things fun and engaging!

  • Austin Murphy

    I live in Star with my wife and son, and in my free time, I’m into anime, PC gaming, and racing at the Meridian Speedway. I became a barber to have a flexible schedule that fit my life and to express myself creatively through my work.

    What I love most about being a barber is meeting new people and seeing their faces light up after a fresh cut. I don’t specialize in one thing—I take pride in being able to handle just about anything my clients ask for, except for kids' cuts (11 and up only!).

  • Greg Raetz

    Hey, I’m Greg, a licensed barber since 2016 and a proud dad of two.

    Barbering has changed my life in so many ways, and I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. The best part? Building lasting relationships with my clients.

    And yes, I’m always accepting new ones!

    I specialize in men’s cuts, fades, and tapers, though I also handle short women’s styles.

  • Salem Weaver

    Salem is on maternity leave until mid-February.

    I am an Idaho native with 10 years of experience in the hair industry, specializing in all things razor—skin fades, face shaves, and head shaves—while also mastering the art of the classic scissor cut. Known for my precision, creativity, and warm personality, I ensure every client leaves my chair feeling their best.

    When I’m not crafting styles, I immerse myself in my passions: attending metal or hardcore gigs, cheering on hockey games, or caring for my beloved rescue animals, which include 2 cats, 2 dogs, 3 lizards, and a tarantula. My dedication to my craft makes me stand out both professionally and personally, and I’m always striving to give my best to those I serve.

What People Are Saying

  • If you're in between barbers, this is the spot to try. They're worth it just to support what they're trying to do. I've been going to Greg for nearly 2 years. Tried a couple of barbers there, but Greg is my guy. He always takes care of me, even when I can barely describe what I want. The new shop setup is awesome. New decor and vibe. Some old faces, some new. Everyone is great tho. Maybe more importantly, the owners are treating the space and barbers with the respect they deserve. Can't wait to see the mural when it's up. In loving memory of my name bro Wyatt, Rest In Peace. Hope this shop becomes everything you wanted it to be.

  • "I brought both of my boys—my 9-year-old and 17-year-old—into Ace of Fades to see Gavin, and he was amazing! My 9 year old wanted a faux hawk mullet fade combo, which sounded impossible! Gavin was great with my youngest, making sure he felt comfortable and even letting him chat about "life" while getting exactly what he asked for. My teenager is pretty picky about his hair, but Gavin nailed the style exactly how he wanted it. It’s rare to find a barber who can connect with both a child and a teen, but Gavin has a way of making everyone feel part of the family. Both my boys walked out looking cool and confident. We’ll definitely be back!"

  • "Our experience at Ace of Fades was absolutely phenomenal! My son was welcomed in. His Barber,  Eddy,  took the time to ask questions and understand exactly what my son wanted.  Eddy executed the fade with precision and skill and he added a stellar design to give a one-of-a-kind style. The atmosphere at Ace of Fades is classy and clean making the whole experience top-notch. "

  • "I stopped into Ace of Fades with a friend after grabbing coffee at Alchemist, hoping to book appointments for our kids. Eddy greeted us right away and couldn’t have been more helpful. He asked about each of our kids' hair types and styles and made sure to pair us with the right barbers who could best meet their needs. I loved how collaborative the vibe was—everyone in the shop seemed to work together seamlessly, which made the experience even better. The whole process was super easy, and I was really impressed with how welcoming and laid-back the shop felt. Definitely looking forward to our kids’ cuts next week!"

  • "I've been going to Greg for a few months now, and I can honestly say he's the best barber I've ever had. He’s great at fades, tapers, and all the classic men’s cuts. What I really appreciate is how personal he makes each visit—I feel like we’ve built a real relationship over time. If you’re looking for a barber who not only gives a great cut but also makes you feel welcome, Greg’s your guy. Always a top-notch experience."

  • "I had my first appointment with Austin last week, and the experience was great from start to finish. He’s super precise and really knows his stuff. I went in for a simple fade and beard trim, but his attention to detail took it to the next level. He made sure everything was on point, and I’ve already gotten compliments on how sharp it looks. Austin’s a solid barber who clearly loves what he does—highly recommend."

  • "Kat was fantastic! I came in for a full color and cut, and she absolutely transformed my look. She took the time to really listen to what I wanted and added her creative touch to make sure everything looked amazing. I’ve been looking for someone who can do both men’s and women’s cuts and color, and Kat does it all with ease. I walked out feeling like a new person—definitely my go-to barber stylist from now on!"

  • "I came into Ace of Fades for a men’s cut and fade, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was clean, calm, and welcoming. My barber, Austin, really took the time to ask about my style and how I wanted the cut to look, which made me feel instantly comfortable. The attention to detail was impressive—he worked with precision and care, making sure every line was sharp. By the end, I felt completely transformed. It wasn’t just about the haircut, but the personal connection and overall vibe that made it a standout experience. I’ve definitely found my new go-to barbershop. Highly recommend!"

  • Very cool, newly renovated barbershop. The chairs are amazing, I couldn’t stop telling Kat how comfortable I was. Speaking of Kat, she is an incredible barber and gave me the best haircut, beard lineup and eyebrow lineup I’ve ever had. I will only be going to this shop and to see Kat forever.

  • The remodeled barber shop is nice and comfortable. Never really had a barber before. Looked around for a while not liking what I was getting until I found Eddy. He's easy to talk to, does a great job on hair and beards. Recommend him to all of my friends who are looking for a haircut. He takes pride in his work and it really shows.

  • Just had a cut with Kat at the newly renovated shop, and it was top-notch. The place looks fresh, and the new setup is super comfortable, especially the chairs (huge upgrade!). Kat is awesome—she really knows her stuff and listened to exactly what I wanted. The whole experience was relaxed, but I left looking sharp. If you’re looking for a barber who’s skilled and easy to talk to, definitely hit up Kat.

  • I have been going to Kat for my haircuts for some time now. I was able to have my first cut with her at this new fantastic barbershop recently and everything was incredible. It’s stylish, clean and everyone is friendly. I highly recommend seeing Kat for any cut, color, or other service. She always takes the time to get my haircut just how I want, and makes sure I’m comfortable and happy. You won’t regret seeing Kat for any barber/stylist services you might need.

  • If anyone asks for a recommendation on a haircut, the person I always say is Greg. He is an exceptional barber who truly knows his craft. Greg’s attention to detail is outstanding. Not only is he skilled, but he’s also incredibly professional and friendly, making experiences enjoyable. He specializes in many different cuts including men's, kid's, women with short hair and he even works on beards. The shop itself has a great vibe—clean, stylish, and welcoming especially with the new ownership and remodel. I love what the new owners did to the place. This barbershop is clearly taken care of and it shows. All in all, if you’re looking for a top-notch barber in Boise, I highly recommend Greg at Ace of Fades Barbershop.
