In 1959 Mr. Jack Braswell and Mr. Ted Bedisole opened the doors of Vestavia Barber Shop. In 1974 Adam Austin (who previously owned Crestwood Barber Shop) came over the mountain and purchased the shop from the original owners. In 1978 Adam was joined by his daughter, Donna Austin McLaurin. Along came Randy McArthur (who owned and operated the barber school where Donna learned the trade) in 1979 and the three of them enjoyed growing the business and working together. Within a matter of 10 years they outgrew the original location and moved down the hill, next to Marks Outdoors. They have remained here for the past 27 years. Staying true to family owned and operated, they were joined by Randys sister, Melanie McArthur Miller who has been cutting alongside them for 28 years. This shop sets itself apart by having low turnover in employment, an example being Dana Jacobs who has worked here 18 years. In 2010, Adams granddaughter, Stevie McLaurin joined the team to keep the tradition going.
