Downtown Lansing men have a new place to get a trim on Washington Square, and it won't be like any haircut experience they've had before.
The Barberrettes is now open, and owner Felix Campos is billing his new business as "Lansing's Premier Gentlemen's Barber Shop.
"I came up with the concept of showcasing professional women barbers," says Campos. "Hopefully it will be something that people find very tasteful."
The 1,500 square foot Barberrettes shop is in the location of the former Perelli's barbershop. Campos says the renovations have taken awhile, but he is pleased with the result
"I've got great concepts going inside," Campos says. "I'm going to add some of the history of Lansing at each station."
Updates to the location include bamboo hardwood flooring, glass partitions, granite countertops, a theater area and more. Campos plans to employ five workers at The Barberrettes.
