About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside McGuinn’s Barbershop and asked the barber: ‘Do you ever get customers who fall asleep here?’ The barber grinned: ‘Oh yes, they do it all the time.’ The barber nodded knowingly. ‘Yesterday,’ he said, ‘an old guy fell asleep with his hat on backwards—when he woke up, he tried to pay in pennies from the 1950s.’ The delivery driver laughed so hard he almost forgot why he came there in the first place.
2. Over breakfast one day, a neighbor noticed an odd message scrawled on the window of McGuinn’s Barbershop: ‘Your beard is growing faster than your hair.’ The shopkeeper shrugged it off as a prank until customers started arriving with similar notes. Soon enough, word spread around town, and people from far and wide came for their haircuts—just to check if McGuinn was right. One regular even brought his own magnifying glass to inspect every detail. Finally, after weeks of teasing, McGuinn admitted, 'Alright, maybe I should’ve paid more attention to my math!'
3. One afternoon, while customers were getting their usual cuts at McGuinn’s Barbershop, the radio crackled with an unexpected announcement: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, your hair today might be slightly greener than usual due to an experimental dye mixup.’ A regular customer, Mr. Jenkins, looked in the mirror and exclaimed, 'I look like a leprechaun!' The barber, Mr. McGuinn, laughed and said, 'Welcome to St. Patrick's Day, sir!' Everyone had a good laugh, and soon enough, everyone left smiling—even if they did get some strange looks on the way home.'
4. One evening, as a regular was leaving McGuinn’s Barbershop, he overheard someone whispering from inside: ‘I bet you can’t guess who just walked in!’ Curious, he turned around and saw only an empty chair. Smiling, he thought maybe it was just his imagination running wild. Then, stepping outside, he bumped into a delivery driver who whispered conspiratorially: 'It was me!'
