Da Barber, Toledo, OH - a photo on Flickriver

            Definitely not the most "old timey" barbershop I've visited lately, Da Barber is a very new addition to the downtown Toledo, OH barbershop scene. Considering just how few traditional shops remain in town, Da Barber offers a nice contrast to the older, single man operations that dominated the town for most of the 20th century. There's a growing market for young men in the inner city who want to get a good hair cut, something that few of the popular chain hair cutting establishments can accomplish. 

Full of young, busy, ambitious gentlemen, Da Barber is a new barbershop that's succeeding in their niche. This gives me great hope for the future of barbershops, I just wish these newer shops would start stocking up on ephemera. ;)
