A new barber shop in Hillcrest is trying to blend the best of classic hair care experience with the convenience of modern technology. Co-owners Landon Strauss and Chris Hjerling got their start in the restaurant industry but decided to open Brightside Barber because of their own woes trying to get a haircut. They said their trick is not trying too hard to be trendy.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe found there was a need for a general, simple, casual barber shop that also offered modern technology along with some of the classic experience,\u201d Hjerling said.<\/p>\n
Alongside a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, they offer online booking and text message reminders.<\/p>\n
The pair plans to make Brightside Barber a chain by opening more storefronts in high-density areas with free parking where people live, work, play, and get their hair cut.<\/p>\n
Soft opening hours are Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m.-6 p.m. 619-340-1900.
