The Barber Story

Boise’s Premiere, Independently Owned & Operated, Barbershop

What matters most to me is creating a space where barbers can show up as their full, authentic selves — not just as professionals, but as people. The Barber Story has grown into more than just a barbershop. It’s a photo studio, an art gallery, and a community hub that celebrates creativity in all its forms. When barbers feel seen and supported, they pour that energy back into their craft — and our clients feel it. That’s the kind of place I’ve always wanted to build.

Jimbo is a master. Taught me how to grow, take care of, and wear long hair, and my hair looked great after every appointment. Not to mention, he’s just a fun guy to talk to. The hour goes by quick! Easily 5 stars.

FINALLY!!! I have been searching for a barber for years and have finally found the right place! I had a cut from Christopher and I’m super pleased with how it turned out. Everything was just easy. Scheduling online was a breeze, great confirmations texts prior to the appointment, FANTASTIC covid safety protocols and just an overall awesome experience. I will be back for sure!!
