For an old-fashioned barber shop experience, head for King's Court
The King's Court Barber Shop has been a fixture for nearly 40 years
|
There are few places left in this valley where a man can let his hair down (so to speak) with other men, jaw with old friends about his day, or commiserate about his marriage, except perhaps at the old-fashioned barber shop. At the King's Court Barber Shop, Tim Burnett sits in the barber chair while Saratogan Lee Giraudo, co-owner of the Los Gatos shop, drapes a plastic hair cloth over him; Cliff Hibbitts, the youngest barber at the shop and the son of co-owner Frank Hibbitts, rests in his seat for a few moments until his next customer arrives. Sal Ferla, retired former co-owner, leans against the counter. He's filling in for the vacationing Frank. The four men banter and tease each other. They have fun recalling old times.
