About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A regular was admiring his freshly shaved face in the mirror when he noticed something odd—his reflection seemed to be wearing an old-fashioned hat that wasn’t actually there. Suddenly, another customer—a delivery driver—asked him if he’d seen a hat lying around. Turns out, it was just an old photo on the wall behind the barber chair. The regular laughed it off, patting himself on the back for noticing such a subtle detail.
2. A delivery driver pulled up to the curb with his truck loaded for unloading. As he walked past the old Times Barber Shop sign, something glinted in the sun—a small, rusted keyring shaped like an old-fashioned razor blade. Curious, he picked it up and noticed an old note attached: ‘For whoever finds this—try the door on Thursdays.’ That evening, while having a beer at the bar next door, a friendly neighbor joked, ‘Must be some secret society of vintage razors!’ The delivery driver shrugged, smiling. ‘Who knows? Maybe I’ll just keep coming back on Thursdays—it’s not every day you get invited into a mystery barbershop.’
3. A little boy walked into Times Barber Shop, eyes wide as he pointed at the old-fashioned barbershop pole outside. ‘Dad,’ he whispered, ‘why does that thing spin so fast?’ The barber smiled and leaned over, his white apron rustling gently. 'Son,' he said softly, 'that's no ordinary pole.' He winked and added, 'It's a sign of our busy day—every time someone walks in, it twirls just a little faster!' The little boy nodded thoughtfully, then giggled as his dad shook his head with a smile.
4. Have you ever seen anyone leave a barbershop with their beard growing on the floor? That's what happened one morning at Times Barber Shop. It turned out that an old delivery driver had fallen asleep in his chair after a long night. When he finally woke up, he was so disoriented that instead of reaching for his own face, he plucked his beard from the floor and proudly presented it to the mirror. The owner just shook his head and said, ‘Welcome back, Joe!’
