He said the parking lot was easy to park and convenient to the entrance door in back. The waiting area was attractive and comfortable. And of course he got a great haircut as he has for years. It's well worth your drive out Route 42 to get your hair cut by Michelle!

Louis, Louis, Louis, Louis…read more.. I was 6, just learning how to read, when my grandfather assured me that Louis was pronounced Louie. He was an honest man, so I believed him. But it instilled in me, a great distrust for the English language. Louis, the proprietor of Central Barber Shop, has been cutting hair for well over 40 years. For the exact number, you'd have to ask him. I'm sure he'd be obliged to answer and discuss any number of topics, or give you advice as any good, ol' time barber should. If you think that Woodstock resembles Mayberry, then you should step into Central Barber Shop and meet Floyd's doppelganger. The resemblance is uncanny. Not only do they look alike, but they treat their clientele the same. People have been coming to Louis all of their lives (if I still lived in Woodstock, I'd be one of them). Back in the day, there wasn't much competition; sure now theres dozen's of other quafferies to choose from, but Central Barber Shop is more than just a place to get your haircut- Its a familiar face. It's that nostalgia that you cant seem to find anymore in todays hustle-and-bustle, instant gratification society. It's that warm, smothering hug from your grandmother. The loyal, gray-faced black lab who meets you at the door when you come home from a long day. That old elm tree you used to climb on and nap under on those hot summer afternoons... Sure, you don't get that gratis' straight-razored, hot shaving cream shave on the back of the neck anymore. But you do get that traditional "ears-lowered" cut that was good enough for your father, and your grandfather, and is still good enough for you. Thanks for staying true, Lou. And thanks for remembering my name, even after not seeing me for 7 years.

Lori has recently taken up the daunting task of filling the shoes of Louis with his much deserved…read moreretirement. Central Barbershop now has some fresh paint but still preserves that olde time feel we all came to love. Lori does a fine job cutting hair and is quite meticulous giving whatever style you want and with skillful hands. She now offers the option of having a shampoo haircut combination. I think this might be popular with the ladies who stop in for a trim. The other good news is that Lori has expanded her hours to six days a week. For some of us it was getting mighty hard to catch Louis on the job. I recently had my first visit and found Lori to be full of personality and fun to talk with while getting my haircut. It has always been tough for me to get a good cut because my hair is so wavy but looking in the mirror two days later I'm pretty impressed and so is my darling wife. Lori says she will be ready to accept credit cards soon and will be bringing back the time honored tradition of hot shaving cream trim.

This location is right off a dual highway across the street from a Sheetz, with street parking and if desperation happens- you can always park in the Sheetz lot. I usually get the same haircut I have since 2009, #2 on the sides and scissors to the top with a slight fade in between. I think what sets Don apart is the conversation. Don is fresh with the town gossip, history of the area, and NEVER ceases to ask you about your day, what you've been up to lately or "what you doing today?" Truly a city staple and a part of the area that adds to the overall tapestry that makes it home.
