Old-Fashioned Barber Shop

Lynne Abbott, left, and her sister, Charlotte Wagoner, gossip in the Lawrenceburg Barber Shop about a boy with a mohawk they saw earlier in the day. "I don't know how he got his hair to stand up like that," Wagoner said. "It was aweful, his hair was a tall as mine is long." "He didn't have to dress up for Halloween," Abbott replied.

Tom Culpepper checks out a copy of "Stuff Magazine" at the Lawrenceburg Barber Shop as Jamie Kinder, left, and Mike Forbes wait for a cut and a shave. Culpepper preferred this particular barbershop because of the atmosphere. ""It feels like a real barbershop,'' he said. ''We could go to Wal-Mart where it's $6, but it ain't the same. People come here whether they need a hair cut or not.''

Jacoby Kinder, 6, protects his eyes from falling hair. According to his father Jamie, Jacoby hates getting a cut because hair irritates his eyes. "It hurts me to watch him get his hair cut," he said. "He's always saying his eyes hurt.''

Lawrenceburg Barber Shop owner Billy Cox shuffles through his barber supplies as window decals cast a shadow accross his shirt. It reads, "Where in the hell is Lawrenceburg, KY?"
