I've been sitting in Elias's chair since it was a folding chair under a tree. Eighteen years, never a bad cut.
Ray T.The Juniper Cut, since 2008
Tomás's straight-razor shave with that cedar balm is the best part of my month.
Daniel K.Porch-side shave
Three generations of us got cuts together for my dad's 70th. They gave him the corner chair and a cake.
Brandon W.Grandpa, dad & kid
Marcus is the only barber my son will sit still for. The design he did for picture day was a hit.
Keisha L.Kids' cut
Hal gave me the same flat top my granddad wore. He knew exactly what I meant.
Cody S.Flat top
Rosa is magic with longer hair. Finally a barber who doesn't reach for the clippers first.
Ethan M.Scissor cut
Community haircut day brought out the whole neighborhood. This place is the heart of the Plaza.
Pastor James R.Community day
Graduated the apprenticeship and now I have a chair here. Best decision I ever made.
