Many have asked how I came up with the idea of V’s. The answer lies in nostalgia, my fond memories of going to the barbershop for a haircut with my dad while growing up in Tucson. I keenly remember the sights and smells of Nick’s Barbershop and the real experience of being a boy among men. It was a place that we could go together and do more than get a haircut. It was a place that made lasting memories.

My son was born in 1994 and I went looking for a barbershop that would let me make memories with him. I did not find the barbershop that I was looking for in Phoenix, or anywhere else, so I decided to open one. This proved to be a challenge, as I am not a Barber and knew nothing of the industry. In 1999, the first V’s Barbershop & Shoeshine opened. We have given thousands of haircuts to men and their sons since.

It is my goal to provide a first-class barbershop experience at a reasonable price. If we do our job right then you too will get more than a haircut and a shave—the experience will be memorable. My dad died in 2003 and in his memory I sincerely hope that the barbershop experience at V’s is something that you and your son remember for a long time.
