OUR PHILADELPHIA STAFF BIOS
Joe Evearts
My name is Joe Evearts. I am a licensed manager-barber, and I am the owner of Joeʼs Throwback Barbershop. I have been cutting hair since the age of 16 — barbering has been my passion in life since the first snip of the shears! I enjoy getting to know my clients and creating the perfect hairstyle for them. Trends come and go, but friendships and the bonds built therein are my passion in this craft.
When I’m away from the chair, I enjoy spending time with my family. We love day tripping to the beach, NYC, or DC — you name it, we do it. I am blessed to have a loving wife and family who take great care of me! I also enjoy working out and spending time with my sons and stepdaughters, if you include our dog Max (FYI A HUNDRED POUND PITBULL lol). We are very much a Brady Bunch, three boys and three girls, with Max being the third boy!
My career as a barber is a work in progress. Iʼm 46 with 30 years’ experience, and I feel my best years are in front of me. Itʼs been a lot of fun so far, and I enjoy keeping up with the ever-changing hairstyle trends, as well as the old school ones! One of my favorite services to give are straight razor shaves. Itʼs pretty cool watching the stress of the day melt away as my clients enjoy receiving that service! Thank you if you took the time to read this. Have a
blessed day, I hope to meet you soon!
Ps: We have a Cat too! Her name is CAT! Pretty original, right! Lol
Sincerely, Joe the Barber
Shelby
My name is Shelby. I’ve been a hair stylist for 8 years. Originally from Florida, I moved up here to Philly a couple years ago and I haven’t looked back. I enjoy fading, undercuts, and making people look and feel their best.
Brian
My name is Brian. I have been cutting hair since I was 16. Starting from family members and close high school friends, I took my talents to college while playing Division III college football for Lycoming College. While completing the coursework required for a degree in Business Administration, I was a 4 year starter playing Linebacker for the Warriors. With a strong passion for the haircutting industry coupled with the high demand of broke college students needing haircuts from the entire college, I successfully leveraged and managed one of the largest underground dorm room “barbershops” during my time in Williamsport, PA. I have a passion for helping people create their ideal image through barbering, which is fueled by an everlasting desire to learn and become better in the industry.
