Ricky Strauss was born in Chicago, where he trained and remained in the hair industry for over 40 years as the owner and operator of three successful shops in the north suburbs. In 2017, he moved out of the Midwest for the first time and made Palm Springs his permanent home with his husband and three dogs. He immediately saw the potential of the quaint barber shop located in the Sunny Dunes shopping district and purchased the business in 2018. He always strives to offer a friendly and reliable service to his local clients and a warm welcome to all visitors. He is joined in the shop by his fellow barbers, James and Jesse.
