Notes from the Razor's Edge

  • We will reopen for business on Wednesday, March 10 at 10:00 am.  We appreciate your patience while we dealt with the Great Flood of December of 2009.

  • David will be working solo for a while, necessitating a lunchtime break from 3:00 to 4:00, during which time he will not only take a few moments to dine on gourmet PB&J on rye, but will also take care of some routine items, such as laundry and brush cleaning.

  •  
  • David is still offering 4 ounce bottles of "Gift of the Magi" for $29 each, which is a happy combination of Frankincense, Gold, and Myrrh. Along with the requisite percentage of alcohol, it contains water from the Shrine of Lourdes (in France), which is said to have miraculous healing properties.

  •  
  • Since water from the Shrine of Lourdes contains minerals which affect the product, David offers "Gift of the Magi" in two variations: "Distilled," which gives a sweeter fragrance, and "Natural," which provides all the additional benefits that undistilled water provides along with its 'mineral' fragrance. 

  •  
  • Our home-grown aftershaves will still be on offer for $19 per 8 ounce bottle:
    • Bay Rum, the favorite aftershave of drunken sailors the world over 
    • Bergamot, with a cheerful citrus fragrance from the land of the Popes 
    • Clovala, the fragrance of mystery and romance 
    • Vetiver, extracted from sun-drenched caribbean beaches 
    • Jazzmen, the musical aftershave from the orient 

    •  
  • Flu Season is approaching, and in keeping with good ethics and hygiene, if any of our barbers feel that we have a contagious flu bug, we won't be in the shop. We will keep a bottle of hand sanitizer in the waiting area for our customers, and our barbers will wash hands with soap and water before every service -- for your health and protection as well as our own. 

  •  
  • Our supply of Lucky Tiger products is running low. We've had difficulty obtaining some of their hair tonics and aftershaves, but we will endeavor to fill your needs with appropriate products. 

  •  
  • Our condolances and prayers go to the family and friends of everyone's favorite barber, Ray Medina. We will miss him greatly; we will miss his barbering talents as well. It was largely due to his talent, charm, and ready wit that made KingBarber a favorite tonsorial destination for area residents. He had been fighting a gastrointestinal stromal tumor for a few years, but he passed away on December 13, 2009. After the doctors performed surgery twice and prescribed all the medications they could, the tumor returned. He consulted the experts at MD Anderson hospital in Houston, but the experimental medication they offered still couldn't cure his condition.

  • Ray's obituary is available at www.mulkeymason.com/index.cfm by typing "Ramon Medina" in the search field.  You may add your rememberances and condolances there as well. 
E-mail your comments and suggestions to David King at david@kingbarber.com. He may not be able to answer every message, but he will certainly read all of them on the weekend.
