Hello there, and thank you for checking out my barbershop!
I grew up all over Southern California, including Lake Arrowhead, Running Springs area in the San Bernardino Mountains. I am drawn to the outdoors, nature and change of seasons! I have traveled to the Pacific Northwest on a few occasions and fell in love with the Columbia River Gorge! Most recently working in Hood River, I found myself setting up permanent roots here in The Dalles!
Throughout my life, I have always been interested in the creative arts. In high school you could find me in the Art Department screen printing band t-shirts, painting and drawing. In college, I received a Studio Arts Degree and completed my Cosmetology license and certification in Makeup Artistry. I started working Freelance Artistry in 2008, on location hair and makeup for personal clients, vendors, events and editorial photography. I currently run all web design for the barbershop. Along with any marketing, advertising and social media.
I maintained a passion for short haircutting and finished the crossover program into Barbering. I have since, worked at some very special barbershops! I’ve gained the most valuable knowledge learning directly behind the chair and from my talented peers! I work well with diverse, unique styles and specialize in clean and classic cuts, tapers and razor fades.
My goals are to reinvent the tradition of going to the barbershop! Where neighbors, friends and family members can relax and receive a genuine and honest service! A positive space for those in the community to feel comfortable and supported.
My inspiration for this barbershop comes from memories of living in Redondo Beach, growing up in tattoo shops and finding out about really good music! Also reminiscent of the good ole’ days! Sailor Tattoos, American Vintage and old time decor. This shop is a miniature version of myself! I plan on having 2 - 3 barbers and eventually be open 7 days a week. Eventually, I will carry a variety of product and beard oil.
My hobbies outside of Barbering are: my puppies, hiking, punk rock, live music, cooking and hanging down by the river! Thank you for supporting my vision and for your patience! I hope to see you in the shop soon!

Kyle W.
Kyle has grown up all over the states, moving with his twin brother while his parents were in the military. Their family eventually settled down in Yorba Linda, California.
Since high school and college, Kyle has always had a knack for anything artistic! Stenciling and Photography being his favorite, he also plays many instruments! He loves music and has spent time touring different states with bands he has played in. His favorite type of music is classic rock and punk rock!
Kyle and Lindsey are practically married and moved together from California. He has been interested in barbering since he has been watching Lindsey cut hair the last couple years of their relationship. Kyle is a hands on kind of guy, with years of experience in the service industry! He is our shop help, receptionist and handyman. He is now going to school for Barbering to join our team when he graduates! All while shadowing here at Gorge City for consistency! He has been here since day one, and has done most of the construction (flooring, installation) on the shop. We wouldn‘t be here without him!
We can’t wait for Kyle to start cutting hair! Meanwhile, you can visit him at Gorge Academy in downtown for a discounted student service!
