We Haven't
Forgotten
Our Roots
Why is the music of Dean Martin subtly playing in the background? What's the story behind the nostalgic photos in our waiting room? They're common questions, with the simplest of answers: we haven't forgotten our roots. Since our barbershop opened its doors, our main focus has been you, our client.
“We pride ourselves on turning clients into friends — and making them look their best in the meantime. Barbering isn't just our passion... it's our life.”
Everyone who works in our shop loves what they do, and simply does it the best. As we grow, one thing will always remain: the corner barbershop where it all started, and the clients who made it all happen.

We're always looking for sharp barbers and hungry apprentices — at both shops. There are two ways in.
Licensed Barbers
Take a chair in Tonawanda or Williamsville and build on what you've already got.
- NYS barber license
- Bring your own clients
- Both shops hiring
Apprenticeship
A two-year guided apprenticeship on the floor, beside licensed master barbers.
- Cutting, fading, straight-razor work
- Sanitation, service & business
- Prep for your Master Barber exam
