About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while getting a trim at First Class Barber, a little boy kept staring at an old mirror behind the barber chair. His father shrugged it off until he heard the kid whispering, ‘Grandpa, why is your mustache winking at me?’ The barber looked up from his scissors and grinned, ‘Ah, that’s just Old Tom,’ he said. ‘He’s been hanging around here for years—winks at everyone who sits in this chair.’ The little boy giggled, and his dad relaxed, realizing it was nothing more than an old-timey tradition at First Class Barber.

2. A delivery driver pulled up outside First Class Barber one afternoon, completely oblivious to the line of customers waiting inside. He jumped out and started unloading boxes, not realizing he’d parked directly in front of the entrance. Suddenly, an old regular walked out, saw the chaos, and cracked a smile. ‘Hey,’ he said, ‘looks like someone forgot their parking pass again!’ The delivery guy sheepishly apologized, moved his truck, and everyone went back to getting their hair cut—or at least trying to.’

3. A regular dropped by First Class Barber after work one day and noticed something peculiar on the counter—a small, handwritten sign reading ‘Free Haircuts for Pets Today.’ Curious, he asked the barber who just smiled enigmatically. Soon enough, a delivery driver walked in with his scruffy dog, and before anyone could protest, the barber gave him a snip-snip. The regular watched, amused as the pet emerged from the chair like a new poodle from Paris—completely transformed. Smiling, the barber whispered, 'Just another day at First Class Barber.'

4. While waiting for his haircut at First Class Barber, an older gentleman overheard two neighbors discussing their garden harvest. ‘I’ll bet you anything,’ said one, ‘that Mr. Johnson’s zucchini is bigger than mine!’ The barber, mid-snip, suddenly looked up and asked, “Is that so? I’d love to see it.’ Finally, Mr. Johnson arrived, proudly carrying a massive zucchini. The barber took one look and exclaimed, 'Wow, that's impressive!' Then he turned to his customer with a twinkle in his eye and quipped, 'Maybe next time you should bring your own chair?'
