Luther's Barber Shop in Bocage Shopping Center. I've been going there since 1981!

The old school barber shop is popular again. Anyone know why? Is it a hipster thing now?

Quite a few law-enforcement types go there for their buzz cuts.

Surprised to see no one has mentioned Robert's Barber Shop on Lee.

It's jimmy fontenot, and yes, he was in the mall/ 20 ish yrs ago. He still works, but his daughter-in-law is now the busier of the 2.

I told my nephew who is graduating this year that he should go to Barber School and open up an old school shop in our home town.

Ok the corner of college and Perkins behind the subway I used to go to Beau James barber and he would give me an old school haircut and tell me racist and dirty jokes the entire time. That's probably what you're looking for but I think his niece may have taken over when he got sick.

Troy's is the master of the police/military high and tight. I wouldn't recommend them if you want something else.
