Welcome to the Barbershop

My name is John

I own the Modern Edge Barbershop located within Younique. I joined the industry in 2024 after many years in the manufacturing industry. I enjoy working with my hands and barbering has given me the opportunity to grow a business where I can create clean customized styles in a laid-back environment. I believe a haircut shouldn't feel rushed and guys deserve a space where the conversation is good, the TV is on and the beer is cold. I work solely by appointment and look forward to having you in my chair.

"Stopped in from out of town. John's chair was open and he got me in. Cleaned up the beard and haircut. Nice guy and a comfortable little shop."
