Country Clipper Barber Shop

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for his trim, an elderly gentleman noticed something peculiar outside the Country Clipper Barber Shop. A delivery driver kept arriving early every day with a mysterious package, but no one ever saw him open it. Finally, curious as to what was inside, our old gentleman decided to follow the delivery guy. Turned out, each morning the driver delivered fresh donuts to the barbershop—secretly baked by a neighbor who knew everyone loved them! The whole town now jokes that maybe the shop’s real ‘cutting edge’ service is its legendary doughnuts.

2. One day, as a little boy entered the shop with his mom, he stopped dead in his tracks and pointed excitedly. ‘Mommy,’ he whispered, ‘look at that old man’s mustache—it looks like a caterpillar!’ The barber looked up from his scissors, grinned, and said, 'Son, that's because it IS a caterpillar!' The whole place erupted into laughter, including the regulars who were getting their weekly trim. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned caterpillars, everyone thought of Country Clipper Barber Shop.

3. A young child walked into the barbershop, eyes wide open in wonder. As she sat down on the old wooden bench, her gaze fixed on a strange shadow moving between the chairs. The shadow turned out to be an elderly gentleman with a huge beard who was quietly clipping his nails. 'Oh,' said the girl softly, 'I thought you were a monster!' The barber laughed heartily and replied, “Next time, kid, don’t judge a book by its cover—or a nail clipper by their shadow.” And they both shared a good laugh.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to the old Country Clipper Barber Shop one afternoon, completely oblivious to the curious stares from inside. The barbers were mid-story when a young delivery driver stepped inside, holding a package. He cleared his throat and asked for directions to the post office. The oldest barber, without missing a beat, replied: 'Son, if you’re lost in life, just follow your nose—we’re right here!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the confused delivery driver who left with a newfound sense of humor.
