- We work on a first-come, first-served basis. No appointments or
reservations. If it's busy, you're welcome to put your name on the
board and go out for a while.
- If you would like me to cut your hair, all you have to do is say so.
If you sign in on the chalk
board, write a circled "G" after your name.
- Unless stated in the "schedule updates" above, I am glad to accept any
clients who arrive before closing time. If you are headed down at the
last minute, and don't think you'll make it in time, you are welcome to
call me at the shop, I may say yes, I may say no.
- Should I unexpectedly miss work, I will attempt to update this site.
You may check back, or call, on the day you will be coming.
- Sometimes I step out for a few minutes. If you don't see me, just ask. One of the other barbers can tell you when I'll return.
About Me
I am originally from the Detroit area. In high school, I started
cutting friends' hair as a hobby. After high school, I attended a
semester at Michigan State University, where I became a popular dorm
barber. I dropped out second semester and attended the Barber/Styling
College of Lansing, Michigan. In 2002, I became a bona fide barber and
started working in the field full time. I started my career at Campus
Barbers in East Lansing and after a couple years moved to Coachlite
Barber lounge in Lansing and Okemos. I worked with some great people
over those years, but I never found a shop that I wanted to stay at
long-term. I moved to Chicago in the fall of '05 so I could join a
custom bicycle club. Without a barber shop job lined up, I ended up
working for corporate america for about a year. I have been at Gabby's
since 2007. |
