Known For

Westover Barber Shop is known for its old-school barbershop atmosphere and its longevity in the Henrietta community. Established in 1959, the shop has outlasted decades of changes along the East Henrietta Road commercial corridor while maintaining a straightforward approach to men's grooming. Its hot lather and straight razor shaves carry on a tradition that has largely disappeared from modern chain salons. The shop has built a steady following among families, including parents bringing young children for their first haircuts.

This stretch of road is lined with strip plazas, restaurants, and local businesses, with Town Centre Plaza located nearby to the north and Henrietta Plaza closer to the Jefferson Road intersection.

Free lot parking at the shop makes stopping in straightforward, and the location is easily reached from Interstate 390 via the East Henrietta Road exits.
