Michael Martin, a seasoned Master Barber with nearly 14 years of expertise, has called Nashville home since 2000. Michael's journey in the world of barbering has taken him across the globe, honing his skills in prominent cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, Rotterdam, and Greece, among others.
With a passion for education, Michael has shared his knowledge extensively, conducting training sessions in salons, barbershops, and even gracing the stages of major hair shows as an educator for Reuzel, a leading men's grooming brand. His commitment to excellence has been a driving force in shaping the industry's standards.
For the past 7 years, Michael has been the proud owner of Hawkins Barbershop. In its initial 5 years, the shop boasted a full-service setup with 6 chairs. Evolving with time, it has transformed into a private, solo suite. This new setting provides clients with a more intimate and personalized experience, fostering quiet conversations and delivering exceptional haircuts.
Michael's impact extends beyond the barbershop, with features in prestigious publications such as GQ, Garden and Gun, Nashville Lifestyles, Nashville Scene, and more. His work has been recognized and celebrated, showcasing his influence not only in the local community but on a national stage.
Michael's dedication to his craft and the unique atmosphere at Hawkins Barbershop reflect his commitment to not just providing haircuts but creating a space where clients can enjoy a one-on-one experience tailored to their preferences. Join Michael for a journey that combines expertise, global influence, and a touch of Nashville charm.

Late Policy: After 10 minutes from your scheduled appointment time, you will be asked to reschedule.
We require a credit card to reserve an appointment and 12 hours notice to cancel or reschedule; in the case that 12 hours is not given for a cancellation, we will charge 100% of the service for a missed appointment. No shows are included under this policy.
CHILDREN
Where young men are concerned, we ask that they be old enough to sit in the barber chair, unaccompanied, and sit still for the entire length of the cut. If you feel this may be a challenge for your youngster, we suggest he may still be a bit young to begin at Hawkins, and we would be glad to help you find a place for him until that time occurs. For those that are in the shop waiting to get haircuts, or waiting on a family member, we ask that you please keep an eye on them, and not allow them to run wild. Horsin’ around will not be tolerated and we’d rather them hear it from you than us.
