Luigi’s Old Style Barber Shop

The 1880s to the 1940s were the golden age for barbershops. During this time, men socialized in all-male hangouts, and barbershops rivaled saloons in popularity. Visiting the barbershop was a weekly, and sometimes daily, habit. Men would stop in not only for a haircut and a shave, but also to fraternize with friends and exchange opinions about sports and politics. For over 30 years, Luigi’s Old Style Barber Shop has kept that golden age of barbershops alive, providing quality haircuts to men and boys from around the world. We are located in the historic 118 La Plaza in downtown Palm Springs. Our classic cuts include a mustache trim plus ears and nose. And don’t forget our hot-towel shave! Our service is walk-ins only. luigisbarbershop.com, (760) 864-9557

We put your safety first. We sanitize everything before and after services, and always wear our masks. Let’s flatten the curve and do our part by staying safe and getting tested frequently. Flawless Imperfections is the lifelong dream of Jacqueline Mariner. Her passion and desire to become an expert in anything she could learn about cosmetology grew into a business birthed out of love and hard work. In the midst of a pandemic, she ran toward her dreams while most withdrew and ran away in panic. Flawless Imperfections was born out of crisis to help bring peace. There is, after all, something flawless about the imperfections in us all. apps.flawlessps.com, (760) 548-0429
