A Piece Of Americana, Barbershops

In our modern fast paced world, there exists a piece of Americana, barbershops.  Barbershops are a place where men can go to and while having their grooming improved, have the ability to discuss every type of issue that is currently on their minds.

The barbershop is a hallowed place. Men gather and discuss the happenings around town or around the country and world. It’s a sounding board for ideas. Topics, like the new building going up in town, or the recent damage from a summer storm, or politics, have an open forum within the barbershop’s walls.

The barber, himself, becomes a very important person because of his knowledge of the discussions that take place in his building. He is a master of walking that fine line of moderating the discussions so that things don’t become too heated. But he is also the keeper of what the men of town are feeling and their opinions of how they want local or national issues handled. Currently we have the upcoming elections fast approaching and there exist polling companies that make millions of dollars attempting to get a feel for how people are thinking about certain the topics. The reality is the local barber is probably the best source of opinions.

Most men like the news that is being discussed. It gives them the opportunity to open up about issues. My local town of Zelienople has the perfect place for just these type of discussions mentioned, Barber Dan’s. If you’re looking for that piece of Americana visit Barber Dan’s.
