The blade haus Grooming & Haircuts

Nicola Yu | Owner & MAster Stylist

9+ years as a licensed hair stylist. I’m originally from Toronto, CA, and moved to the DMV as a teen. With almost a decade in the industry as a professional barber and industry leader, I've learned that true luxury isn’t loud - it’s intentional. I genuinely love what I do, and all the amazing clients turned friends! I enjoy creating elevated experiences and building real connections with the people who sit in my chair.

I take pride in creating a space where you can show up as yourself and leave feeling your best!
