The Anguished Barber’s name derives from the English subtitle of the 1934 Salvador Dali work entitled: “Barber Saddened by the Persistence of Good Weather.” Inspired by not only the painting’s color scheme, but it’s 1930’s era. The name pays homage to Midtown Atlanta’s Arts District, the epicenter of major venues, award winning performances, and the ever changing exhibits at museums.

Upon entering the barbershop, customers witness the era’s traditions within the architerior design of deep wood, brass metal, tuft leather, with a modern touch. Your experience transforms with the craft and skill of our barber services and bar offerings.

In our vision we believe good business is through accountability, character, culture, and distinction. Our mission is to create community spaces where people have enjoyable experiences, exceptional services, quality products, and luxury.
