About The Barber Shop

The Barber Shop is a local business in Thunder Bay, Ontario, that has been providing haircuts for men, kids, and seniors for over 50 years. The shop, located in Westfort Village next to Frescos Delis, offers services such as buzz cuts, fades, beard cuts, beard line ups, and hot towel shaves.

Upon visiting the barbershop, customers can expect fantastic service, as mentioned by one of the reviewers. The barbers are professional, skilled, and friendly, engaging in conversation and making the session enjoyable.

Atmosphere is great, I have booked with Ian twice now, great work very easy and nice guy, I showed up a bit late gave him notice and yet he still managed to give me a great service (Hands down Ian is the best barber in town) don't look at the negative reviews give him a try and judge yourself, personally am definitely going back and most definitely recommend.

I've had almost every barber here cut my hair and they all do a great job, you also have the option to have a beer while getting your hair cut which is the only place I've heard that does this.

They also straight razor shave the back of your neck and I think also have the option to do your beard like that as well.
