Kwentong Barbero isn't just for quick haircuts—it's a home for relaxation, engaging conversations, and timeless charm. Founded by Richard and Marissa Narvaez in Baguio City, the idea sparked when Richard's barber on Session Road mentioned the shop was closing and asked if he was interested in buying it. This small talk led Richard to conceptualize a first-class traditional full-service barbershop, a novel concept in the city. Since its debut in September 2002, this nostalgic barbershop has blended modern grooming with timeless hospitality, earning a reputation as an "old school" barbershop. By "old," we mean traditional, classic, special, and personal. Despite being imitated, the original shop remains genuine in its services and has never been equaled by others. It's the barbershop that first elevated the grooming experience for every gentleman in the city.
