Hi, thanks for visiting Off The Top. You may have noticed by now, We. Are. Different. Off The Top is a unique business model specializing in CUSTOM design, geared towards choosing looks that are fabricated to fit the client specifically for their features with an emphasis on balance and Symmetry, face shape, bone structure, hair type, etc. For the right individual, this correct and unique approach will give you a look that is perfectly suited just for you. (See mission statement)
Off the Top was designed with high quality, comfort, and relaxation in mind. Also with the idea that one client get all the attentiveness of the barber with an appointment exclusive business model. The idea is quality, not quantity.
So with that said, the reason I opened Off The Top in Cowlitz County is simple: I live here! I wanted to support local commerce and to give Kelso, Longview, and its surrounding areas the kind of specialty services that, for a long time, could only be found by driving into a big metropolis. Also, I wanted to be home more. I was working in the city and commuting far too long. Don't get me wrong: I worked at one of the top shops in the city, and it was an awesome shop and I had awesome clients, but I'm sure you can relate, at some point how much are you sacrificing and is it worth it? I was ready to do a shop on my terms, my way, my hours, my vision. So that’s exactly what I did...
A trip to this shop is more than “just a haircut.” The goal is to make your visit an experience. We offer free beverages, suitable for all ages, and maybe a few that aren't suitable for all ages. For the young ones there are coloring books, puzzles, toys, and places to play outside in our playground so the kids don't feel stifled while waiting. There is more for adults too: there's a spacious deck to relax on with a table for your coffee or a cold one, depending on your mood. While you're there, take a look under the apple trees. Chances are you will see a family of deer unencumbered, relaxing in the shade in the quiet of the day. There is so much here, too much to write, and all with a great view! It's a unique experience you won't forget and I guarantee you'll be back again!
So come check us out and see for yourself what sets Off The Top apart from the rest.
See you soon!
