About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At DeStyles at Fadeaway Barbershop, every morning around 8 AM, a regular would arrive with a mysterious package. He’d place it carefully on the counter and whisper something only the barber could hear before leaving as quickly as he came. One day, the barber noticed that the mysterious package was actually a box of donuts. Turned out, the ‘regular’ was just a friendly neighborhood delivery driver who wanted everyone to enjoy their mornings sweetly. Since then, DeStyles became known not for its secret packages but for its legendary coffee and fresh-baked treats.
2. At DeStyles at Fadeaway Barbershop, on particularly foggy mornings, an old bicycle would appear outside the door. No one knew whose it belonged to or why it always seemed to materialize just as customers were arriving for their weekly trim. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a package and asked curiously, ‘Is that your bike?’ pointing at the mysterious bicycle. The barber laughed, replying, ‘No idea, but he sure knows when our first customer arrives!’ And so, the bike remained, becoming part of the shop’s charm until one foggy morning when it finally pedaled away, leaving behind only a faint bell ringing in the air.
3. At DeStyles at Fadeaway Barbershop, whenever there’s a full moon, the barber’s clippers start humming along with the rhythm of distant jazz music. One night, an old delivery driver walked in and asked for his usual cut. As soon as the full moon rose outside, the clippers began playing Dizzy Gillespie’s ‘A Night in Tunisia.’ The barber tried to turn them off but couldn’t—until he noticed the delivery guy dancing like Gene Krupa behind the counter! They ended up cutting hair to the beat of that jazz until closing time.
4. At DeStyles at Fadeaway Barbershop, whenever the sun sets early in autumn, customers notice something peculiar: a small dog enters through the back door and takes its place among the chairs. The little dog never barks or moves, just sits there patiently until closing time. One evening, an impatient customer asked the barber, ‘Why does that strange dog sit here every night?’ The barber replied with a smile, ‘Oh, he’s our silent partner—he keeps the customers calm while they wait.’
