Park Slope Barber
Description
The oldest barbershop in the United States was opened in Saugus, Massachusetts, in 1902. Trailing closely is this Park Slope institution, which opened in 1903 (the dates, which read 1906 and 1904, are incorrectly printed on the shop’s window and awning). Run now by Angelo Fiumefreddo, the shop maintains its old-school feel with the help of a 100-year-old brass cash register, leather chairs and other haircuttery artifacts. Angelo and his brothers host a 90 percent male clientele, but women do pop in for trims now and then. And with cuts starting at $14, it’s like their price list was made during the first recession!
