My name is Adam Petipas and I’m an independent barber/stylist.  I’m a second generation barber, following in my father’s footsteps.  I would fulfil my chores around his barbershop after basketball practice in junior high and high school, becoming enamoured with the social atmosphere, as well as the skillset my father exuded.  My keen interest led him to introduce me the basics of barbering,  curating  an everlasting impression on me.

My introduction and foundation rests in traditional barbering.  However, I’ve traveled abroad to train with the likes of industry leaders such as Glassbox, Menspire and Vidal Sassoon.  This plethora of training has allowed me to ascend to a multiple of disciplines, as well as hair types/textures.  I’m quite confident in working with very short hair to longer shoulder lengths and more.  Wether it’s a beard trim, shave, fade or a shoulder length cut, I’m more than happy to serve you.  I pride myself on the quality of my work, as well as the level of my service.

When I’m not behind the chair, I enjoy basketball, photography, snowboarding and weightlifting.  Other interests include automotive design and cars, reading and record collecting.  The rest of my time is dedicated to music: I’ve been working as a professional DJ and music producer for over twenty years now.  DJing has taken me all over North America, as well as Korea.  I’ve hosted numerous radio shows over the years and started a boutique record label, focusing on vinyl only releases, featuring artists from Los Angeles, Oakland, New York, San Francisco and Toronto.
