Popular Demand Barbershop

Popular Demand Barbershop is a barber shop on East Ridge Road in Rochester, NY, founded by master barber Tyson Cotton. Cotton started cutting hair on a side porch on Rochester's east side before opening his first shop in 2008 on Norton Street. In 2010, he relocated and partnered with Timothy Halter to establish the current operation at 888 East Ridge Road, building the business around a professional, family-oriented atmosphere.

Appointments can be booked online, and the shop accepts credit cards and gift cards. The team includes multiple barbers working on staggered schedules throughout the week, with the shop open Tuesday through Saturday.

Popular Demand Barbershop has roots in Rochester's east side community dating back to Tyson Cotton's early days cutting hair outdoors before he formalized the business.
