Elie Barber has been a Maple Ridge fixture for over 12 years, known for precise cuts and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that keeps neighbours coming back. What sets them apart is a combination of steady skill and clear attention to detail: senior barber Elie himself is Red Seal certified, works from a 900-square-foot shop on 224th Street, and specialises in classic clipper work, faded styles and meticulous straight-razor shaves.

They offer a straightforward menu you can actually rely on. Men’s and boys’ cuts start with a 30-minute Precision Cut that includes neck cleanup and hot towel finish. For anyone wanting a fuller service, the Signature Cut is 50 minutes and adds a detailed beard trim using American Crew and Uppercut Deluxe products. They also do traditional hot-lather shaves with a straight razor, scalp treatments using Baxter of California oils, and senior discounts on weekday mornings. Walk-ins are welcome when chairs are free, and they take appointments by phone and online.

The team treats every visit like catching up with a good friend, while staying professional and efficient. Appointments are paced so barbers have time to consult—whether you want the exact fade you saw on Instagram or a gentler transition for thinning hair. Tools are sterilised between clients, capes are washed daily, and all barbers hold current WHMIS and first aid certification. Elie trains apprentices in-house, so you’ll often see a mentor working alongside a newer barber, which keeps technique sharp.

Local people choose Elie Barber because it feels personal, reliable, and rooted in Maple Ridge. They support school sports teams with haircut nights, host a quarterly “community cut” for fundraising, and pride themselves on knowing regulars by name. If you want a skilled cut without pretence, call or visit.
