01 Our story

Traditional
meets modern.

New York Barbers was established in 2014 by Mario Fallace, who has been in the industry for over 40 years and owns Fallachi Hair — our first hair salon, located just up the road in Berwick, where we have been serving our guests for over 20 years.

Mario saw the rise in interest for men's-specific grooming services, and this is when the New York Barbers idea was born. Inspired by the old-school New York City barbershops and N.Y.C itself, you immediately sense the New York vibe when you walk in.

What started out as a 5-chair barbershop on Kempson Walk in Berwick quickly grew, and before we knew it we were in need of somewhere bigger to accommodate our clients. So we moved down the street to Adams Lane — now a 10-chair barbershop complete with our very own coffee shop.

In November 2025 we opened our second shop, on Napier Street in Warragul.

02 The team

A passion
for barbering.

Our team is made up of a group of passionate & experienced barbers, all from different backgrounds of the industry.

Led by owner Mario, who brings over 40 years of experience, we work together to provide a quality barber service to our clients and make your experience an enjoyable one. Whether it be an old school classic or a new 'on trend' cut, New York Barbers has you covered.

We stock the hair, beard and shaving products our barbers use.
