Two chairs.
No rush.
Vintage Blade is Dixie Rheiner and Thea Parrino — two barbers, straight-razor trained, and the reason people drive in from all over Southwest Florida.
Vintage Blade opened its doors in Bonita Springs in 2023 with a simple idea: bring back the proper barbershop. British-racing-green walls, mahogany, brass fittings and sepia portraits — a room that feels lived-in from the day you walk in, and a chair that remembers your usual.
Behind the first chair is Dixie — proprietor and master barber. Straight-razor trained and particular about a clean finish, she opened the shop with one rule: no rotating strangers, no rush. She’ll learn your look and give you the exact same cut next time, whether that’s a scissor classic or a hot-towel shave that’s the most relaxing twenty minutes of your month.
In 2026, the second chair got its barber. Thea is a Florida native with 17 years in the industry, specializing in straight-razor shaves, scissor cuts and kids’ cuts — and she holds the same line on a clean finish.
Regulars will tell you the same thing about both: it’s the conversation as much as the cut. They call you by name, remember your kids, and send you out looking your best. Book the barber you want by name, or take the first open chair.
Regulars say it best.
“Miss Dixie makes this gem state of the art. In my 30 years of military service, she’s probably the best in the entire state of Florida.”
“From the moment I walked in — a warm, welcoming vibe, that perfect mix of classic charm and modern flair. Dixie took the time to chat about exactly what I wanted.”
“By far the best place I’ve ever been to get my haircut. Very clean and well decorated — and Dixie listens to your needs.”
