Cliff Wolosin started cutting hair in 1964 in California. There he cut hair for movie stars, musicians and a well-known clientele.

His place at 3330 E. Tropicana Ave. is part barbershop, part wild west museum. He uses old-fashioned giant scissors and a straight razor to deliver a clean cut.

It’s an incomparable experience of Western hospitality.
