San Francisco barbershop caters to all genders wanting short cuts
In the heart of San Francisco, there’s an old-school barbershop serving up a whole new vibe, and turning more than a few heads in the process.
Saba Parsa has spent years searching for a good short haircut. But in a world where salons cater to long hair and barbershops mostly serve men, people like Parsa often end up stuck between a clipper and a hard place.
“Not everybody knows how to cut short hair, so this was a dream spot,” she said.
The Barb is a little shop in Bernal Heights, cutting gender norms down to size, catering to women, nonbinary people, and anyone who wants to go short.
Sheena Lister, owner of The Barb, said the concept grew from a simple gap she kept seeing in the industry.
“People are used to either getting a haircut at a salon or a barbershop,” Lister said, “and we’re kind of the in-between.”
Short hair seems to be having a moment well beyond San Francisco. Vogue recently noted 2025 is the year of the bobs, chops and pixies, declaring that hair is “going even shorter.”
Ro Gooch, a nonbinary barber specializing in gender-affirming cuts, said The Barb is often the first place where clients are even asked how they want their short hair to lean more feminine, more masculine, or somewhere in between.
She said if you have long hair, you’re going to get booted out of here, though “nicely.”
Their signature style — The Barb — starts at $95, tip included. Part 70s barbershop and part soda fountain, complete with a front window for soft-serve and coffee, the space is designed as much for gathering as grooming.
“Just like the old-school soda fountain and barbershop,” Lister said, “those were both places that people gathered for community.”
As for Parsa, the results needed no explanation.
“I love it. It’s just a dream,” she said.
Division-leading Dodgers aim to snap home losing trend as they open series against the Giants in a matchup of NL West foes
After dropping their second straight home series over the weekend, the Los Angeles Dodgers head into Monday night’s series opener against the San Francisco Giants sitting atop the National League West Division standings, aiming to avenge a series loss to the Giants from two weeks ago. San Francisco has lost nine of its last 12 games overall and have dropped seven in a row on the road as they begin a 10-game road trip that will keep them away from home until Memorial Day Weekend. The Giants will start Trevor McDonald (1-0, 1.29 ERA) in his fourth start in the Majors while the Dodgers will counter with second-year Japanese import Roki Sasaki (1-3, 5.97 ERA) who has given up a home run in five consecutive outings.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the McCoven who hopefully have better things to do than watch this dreadful baseball team. But if this is your chosen way of spending the day, then welcome, and may the Giants beat the Pittsburgh Pirates to win the series for you.
Right-hander Tyler Mahle takes the mound for the Giants, as the veteran makes his eighth start of the year. He’s 1-4 on the season, with a 5.00 ERA, a 4.91 FIP, and 34 strikeouts to 18 walks in 36 innings. He was very strong his last time out, pitching 5.1 shutout innings against the Tampa Bay Rays.
For the Pirates, it’s right-hander Bubba Chandler, a 23-year old in his second season. In seven starts this year, Chandler is 1-4 with a 4.76 ERA, a 5.60 FIP, and 31 strikeouts to 26 walks in 34 innings. Chandler gave up two runs in five innings against the Arizona Diamondbacks in his last game. He has issued the most walks in the Major Leagues, so he’s probably foaming at the mouth to face the Giants, who apparently believe that drawing walks is a sin on par with murder.
Enjoy the game, everyone. Go Giants! Go moms!
