Regular Schedule

Tuesday - Friday : 10 am to 6 pm
Saturday: 7 am to 4 pm
Closed Sunday & Monday

We work on a first-come, first-served basis.  No appointments or reservations.  If it's busy, you're welcome to put your name on the board and go out for a while. 

Unless stated in the "schedule updates" above, I am glad to accept any clients who arrive before closing time.

Should I unexpectedly miss work, I will attempt to update this site. You may check back, or call, on the day you will be coming.

If you would like me to cut your hair, just sign in on the chalk board with a circled "G" after your name. If one of the other barbers offers their assistance, simply inform them if you are waiting for me.

Sometimes I step out for a few minutes. If you don't see me, just ask. One of the other barbers can tell you when I'll return.

About Me
For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a barber. As I got older, I started cutting friends' hair in my hometown of Troy, Michigan. After high school, I attended a semester at Michigan State University, where I became a popular dorm barber. Probably the best choice I made in my life is when I chose to drop my second semester and instead attend the Barber/Styling College of Lansing, MI. Just before turning 20, I became a bona fide barber and started working in the field full time. At the advice of a colleague and veteran barber, I took my career through a few different shops in the Lansing area. I learned a few things, and worked with some great people over the years, but I never found a shop that I wanted to stay at long-term. I moved to Chicago in the fall of '05 so I could join a bicycle club called Rat Patrol.  Without a barber shop job lined up, I had to settle for working at a corporate shop for about a year. Some of you in corporate workplaces understand how that goes! A chair opened up at Gabby's and I joined their staff in early 2007. Clients who followed me from my previous haunt love the atmosphere and format of the shop, and I do too!
