This tiny chain revives the barbershop atmosphere of the 40’s, offering straight razor shaves and “the cleanest haircut in Southern California.” For those too far away to get their pomps, puffs, boogies, or waterfalls maintained at the source, their hair goods can be bought over the ‘net – the pomade comes in a convenient bulk size, and the aftershave looks like a choice retro scent for the dudes. Thanks, Andrew!

Pinup dresses featuring tumbling dice, sugar skulls, and old-school tattoo flash, with a nod to the cards of Alice in Wonderland. The rest of the catalog is a little of this, a little of that, in tops, skirts, hair flowers, and bags, and guardians of small dogs will find a section of shirts made to coordinate to the vampage for a picture-perfect walk in the park.

Dread care and decor. They stock all the waxes, shampoos, conditioners, and tighteners needed for healthy maintenance, plus dyes and bleach, and special combs and anti-frizz tools to keep everything neat. Tams, wraps, wooden hairpins, and beads with little googly eyes make up the adornment section, and they’ve got some unusual specialty products to cut down on all the little frustrations that can come with knotting up your hair: microfibre towels to halve drying time, showercaps and sock hats for keeping all the locks out of the way while bathing or sleeping, rubber bands that won’t quickly snap to death. Also body polish, club toys, ear stretching kits, and a little hemp clothing.

Crocheted accessories for the flapper-hippie. Cloche hats trimmed with little bows, capelets and neckwarmers garnished with roses, hair combs to slide bits of garden into one’s locks, even crocheted earrings that pop with color. Lots of bright wintery things to warm up an outfit or put a modern spin on a 20’s look.

Hats from the late 19th and early 20th centuries for Victorian teaparties and Edwardian day ensembles and flappers on the go, just demanding to be introduced to an elegant pair of gloves and a smart little purse. Cloches, wide-brimmed straw designs, velvet floppies, garnished with flowers or tied with sashes or draped in silk veiling. There’s a section just for bridal headwear, and the silk roses can be bought a la carte.
