    Yesterday I took my 20-month-old son in for his second haircut, and while his first experience went smoothly, this time was a completely different story. He’s now entering that “strong opinions” stage, and let’s just say—he was not a fan of the haircut.

    If I could give a 6th star I would! Ed and his team are skilled, friendly and efficient.

Go get your next cut here and you won't go anywhere else!

    Ed is a fantastic barber and is great with men’s cuts and kids. The shop will take you back in time as Ed works hard to maintain the old school barbershop charm of yesteryear. You’ll get the latest news on current events, and may be lucky enough to experience the occasional guitar serenade while you wait! It’s a popular place for the locals so make sure give yourself plenty of time if there’s a crowd in the shop. You won’t be bored though, and while the experience is free, haircuts are still only $10!
