I cut my own about once a week for the last 21yrs.The last time I got mine cut at a shop with a barber pole was probably in the 80's.I remember my first hair cuts back in the late 1950's,they not only had a big barber pole,but a big wood and glass garage door that was wide open in warm weather and closed during cold weather.The town was established around 1900 and I'm sure that barber shop was probably built around that same time period.
