John’s Barbershop Celebrates 40 Years in Mesa

written by Jamie Killin August 1, 2019

John’s Barbershop shows there’s a lot more to a barbershop than just a haircut.

The family-owned and operated business is celebrating 40 years of fantastic haircuts, exceptional customer service and a welcoming atmosphere this year.

Since the barbershop’s namesake John opened the business in September of 1979, it’s become a treasured part of the Lepianka family — with John’s son John now owning the business, and four generations working there throughout its history.

The Lepiankas extend that focus on family to their customers as well, making everyone who walks through the door feel at-home with its outdoorsy atmosphere that highlights the family’s history as well as its customers.

“We’ve always been a close-knit family, we’ve always gone hunting together, fishing together, camping, just enjoying the outdoors,” said John. “So, we have customers that come in and enjoy those things too and they can relate. We have a whole wall in the back with pictures of customers with their sons and daughters catching their first fish, or on their first hunt.”

In fact, it’s not uncommon for customers to stop by and chat about the outdoors, or a recent hunting or fishing trip. The barbershop’s clients truly do feel at home — being greeted by name upon arrival, and with some clients being customers for over 30 years — even after moves and establishing their own families.

“Our customers like that we have a family atmosphere and that it’s an old school barbershop,” said John. “We’ve had guys tell us they like it here because you feel comfortable here. We try to greet everyone by their first name and make them feel more like family than a customer.”

For John, its rewarding to see his father continue to work in the barbershop, seeing his customers grow and spreading the word about the barbershop to their growing families.

“The kids that he was cutting hair for when they were maybe 10-years-old are now coming in with their sons and their Dads still, too,” said John.

The barbershop’s long history also translates to a lot of experience, with original owner John boasting 50 years of experience, another barber having 60 and yet another with 40 years. Owner John himself has been working in the shop for 17 years, bringing John’s barbershop to over 150 years of combined experience.

The shop provides all kinds of haircuts for children and adults, including flat tops, fades, and high and tight cuts.

John’s Barbershop is located at 3929 E. Main St. in Mesa. Only walk ins accepted. To learn more, call (480) 832-9845.
