Johnny’s Original Montavilla Barbershop
I took this black and white photo a couple of years ago with an old Canon A-E1 for a photography class project where I was supposed to be taking photos in the style of Robert Frank’s “The Americans”, more photos here with photos at the Bipartisan also. I had the opportunity to hang out with Johnny and one of his clients while I was shooting. If you can’t tell by the photo, this place keeps up a very original barbershop feel. Johnny knows everything about the neighborhood and was very friendly and funny. He kept asking me if I was a spy from the new hair salon across the street. So if you are looking for a clipper cut, flat top or a hot towel straight razor shave, stop on in.
