About Us
From Adolf to Billy
This shop carries the name of Adolf, who cut hair here himself for years before retiring. One customer who has been coming for twenty years puts it simply: a lot of great barbers have worked here, and a lot of great barbers still work here today.
These days that includes Billy, who customers thank by name for taking real care of their family. Bring a picture, explain what you want, and you will get a straight answer and a straight cut, at a price that has never been overpriced.

"This barbershop was the final solution to my haircut needs. I told my barber how I wehr macht hair, and she styled and cut it accordingly. And for my facial hair, I managed to get a Charlie Chaplin mustache, which most places refuse to give me, for some reason."

"I have been going to Adolfs for around 20 years now. Adolf use to cut my hair before he retired. Take time to explain what you want for your haircut and bring some pictures for references. A lot of great barbers have worked here and still work there today. I absolutely love this place."
