Our story
We have been in business for 100+ years and running! The shop was previously owned by Roland Dufresne, who left it to his apprentice and current owner, Jim Rutledge — Jim has had the shop for over 30 years and does both women’s and men’s cuts.
Jim’s son Ty Rutledge has become the main barber and is carrying on the legacy: fades, designs, straight-edge razor work for beard design, custom cuts, line-ups, beard shaping and full-face hot towel shaves. Colors, foils, highlights and up-dos are offered by our stylists by scheduled appointment.

Across from UMass Lowell North Campus. Free parking in the lot behind the shop — the driveway is on the right side of the building (facing the shop); our spaces are against the fence. Plenty of metered street parking too (Passport Parking app).
