Cut of the Week / Opie Teller Transformation

November 30, 2014 By //  by Tyler the Beardsmith Leave a Comment

Every day there are all sorts of haircuts walking out of our doors, some simple everyday cuts, and some a bit more dapper, and some where our clients let us pull out all the stops. For those who want to know what we REALLY do here.


Before & After: Opie Teller Transformation

The Barber: Tyler
The Story:

When this new friend walked in the door, the Shop Kid immediately dubbed him a half-giant Viking. We think he is a perfect mashup of Jax and Opie from Sons of Anarchy. He came in with the intention to donate his hair to Locks of Love, but was understandably nervous about taking such a big step.

He brought the kids along, and right about the time they were kidnapped by ours, we got the distinct feeling that he had found his home. After a shop-wide search for a hair tie or rubberband (apparently we are unprepared for some things, still being a new shop and all), we got him looking handsome as hell, and did some good in the process.

We do Locks of Love donation haircuts on the house, and before and after pictures, so you have some awesome documentation of the big chop – but there is a small catch.

Because we take our time with these cuts and take pictures, the free Locks of Love cuts do have to be booked by phone and for off peak hours. We can even sometimes do these cuts during closed hours if you’re a 9 to 5-er.


Have a big mop to chop off? Let us do it right.
