Carmen's Barber Shop
Carmen's Barber Shop and Hairstyling was located at 565 Red River Road in Thunder Bay, Ontario, until the early 2000s. It was run by Carmen Groccia, who also fittingly had a copy of The Wealthy Barber in his waiting area.
The business existed since at least 1986. His business had two or three barbers' chairs. He must have retired around 2005.
Carmen's business was in the same building as Thumbusters.
Carmen's phone number was 807-344-1281.
