I noticed we have some new blog followers and that's great. One of them is a barber called Frankie, and I found a link on his blog to a great Donnie Hawley video. Donny is the owner of Hawleywoods barbershops in California. Next time I go to L.A. I am definitelty booking an appointment and going down to Long Beach to the shop.

Donny calls the style I'd know as a "flat top boogie" a "flat top with fenders". Pretty damn cool.

Cool videos. I got to see Donnie cutting at the Calgary Tattoo and Kustom Arts convention I was phoographer at. I bought some Layrite off him too.
In fact I got a couple of nice shots of him at work and he wanted to see them and asked me to send them on to him.

I Cannot, and I mean CANNOT believe you met him! That is too cool Danielle. And you got some Layrite too. So, do you have one of those shots that you could email me? I can put it up on the blog.

Thanks for the feedback - it's great tohear from you.

Sure I'll have a look and dig them up and e-mail one onto you. :)

I was in Hawleywood's in Long Beach about a year and a half ago. Just wandering around, having a coffee here and there, popping into thrift shops, and then 'there' it was! I was going to buy some of their hair cream, but decided not to due to airport security issues.
