Dandedeville Barber & Beauty

Dandedeville Barber & Beauty is a hybrid barbershop and beauty parlor at 676 Monroe Avenue in Rochester, NY. Established in 2015, the shop operates as Dandedeville On Monroe LLC and brings a retro-inspired aesthetic to one of Rochester's busiest commercial corridors. The business serves both men and women, functioning as a full-service barber and hair salon rather than a traditional single-focus barbershop. Both walk-ins and scheduled appointments are accepted.

The service menu spans barbering, hair styling, and waxing. On the barbering side, offerings include gentleman's cuts, fades, head shaves, hot towel face shaves, and beard trims. Hair services extend to long-hair cuts, women's cuts, and color treatments. Waxing services are also available. The shop accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, debit cards, and cash. Guests can enjoy beer and wine on-site while they wait or during their appointment — a nod to the shop's laid-back, social atmosphere. The space is wheelchair accessible, kid-friendly, and welcomes all clients regardless of background.

Dandedeville has built its identity around blending traditional barbershop culture with a broader beauty offering under one roof. The retro-themed interior and relaxed vibe set it apart from conventional salons along the Monroe Avenue strip. With over a decade of operation at the same address, the shop has maintained a steady presence in a neighborhood where independent businesses frequently turn over. Its dual focus on barbering and beauty services — from crisp fades to color treatments — gives it a wider reach than a typical neighborhood barbershop.

The shop sits on Monroe Avenue, Rochester's largest commercial corridor, stretching over two miles through several distinct neighborhoods. The section near 676 Monroe Avenue falls within the pedestrian-friendly stretch sometimes called Monroe Village, characterized by a dense mix of independent shops, restaurants, and bars. Street parking is available along Monroe Avenue, and the business also offers free parking. The area hosts the annual Show on Monroe festival, which highlights the corridor's independent businesses. For visitors coming from outside the neighborhood, Monroe Avenue is easily accessible from Interstate 490 and connects the inner city to Rochester's eastern suburbs.
