Master Chair Barbershop has always been more than a place to get a haircut. We opened our doors with the idea that a barbershop could act as a little community hub, a spot where people come not just for grooming but for connection. Over the years, we’ve seen friendships begin while two strangers chatted about music festivals and heard neighbours share tips about the best food trucks in town. Even on quiet weekday mornings, the sense of camaraderie is there — a nod to someone you recognise or a quick laugh with your barber about last night’s game.

This spirit isn’t accidental. We keep our chairs close enough to encourage conversation and our waiting area stocked with interesting magazines and board games. We host the occasional charity event and collaborate with local artists to feature their work on our walls. Every time someone walks through our door we hope they feel the same comfortable vibe you get from your favourite coffee shop or record store. Community is built through small moments: asking about someone’s day, remembering a preferred hairstyle, learning a new joke. It’s our privilege to facilitate those moments and watch connections grow.
