Floyd's Barbershop Moving into Recently Closed Cartridge World (27 E Harrison)


Remember when we wrote that Cartridge World was closed?  Well that was 11 days ago and in that time, a new sign announcing Floyd's Barbershop (27 E. Harrison) quickly went up (see image above).

What is Floyd's?  Well according to their website:
Floyd’s 99 shops focus on old school customer service, where customers are every employee's number one priority. It mixes its excellent service with the new style appeal of an experienced, talented staff with unique and fun personalities to match the Floyd's 99 attitude that keeps their loyal customers coming back. Surrounded with posters of hot bands and music artists plastered on the walls, customers can watch one of the plasma TV's or log on to the Internet at one of the shop's customer computers, all while taking in the music on Floyd's 99's own radio station. Then to top it all off, every customer receives the Floyd's 99 signature hot lather neck shave* and aaahhh…shoulder massage.
While we typically don't get super excited about a barbershop, it's definitely an improvement over a Cartridge World if you ask us.  It's interesting because there is a Sports Clips going in at 10 E. Harrison.  Seems like they cater to the same person.

According to their website they will be opening up in the fall of this year (so pretty soon!).

We've never been to Floyd's Barbershop?  If so, how did you like it?
