Half haircut, half social club
The shop opened with two chairs and a card table for checkers by the window. The checkers table is gone but the habit of hanging around after your cut is finished never left - most regulars stay for the conversation as long as they stayed for the haircut.
We kept the list of services short on purpose. Four things, done the same precise way every time, rather than a menu that tries to be every kind of salon at once.
Four chairs, four barbers, no rotation - you keep whoever you started with.
