Palace Barber Shop continues 133 year old legacy in downtown McKinney

As customers file through the doors of Palace Barber Shop in downtown McKinney, they either take a seat in the red chairs lining the wall or go immediately to a barber chair. For the most part, customers do not get asked what service they would like performed, nor do they need to volunteer the information, the service just ensues.

“I walk in, sit down and Linda or John already know what I want,” said Jerry Brooks, McKinney resident and longtime customer. “I don’t have to tell them anything.”

The set up: A regular haircut is the top requested service at the barber shop. Shaves, flat tops and beard trims are also available.

Marshall said when she started working at the barber shop, haircuts cost $3, today they are $25.

The shop is open Tuesday through Saturday.

“I'm not here Sunday and Monday because Sunday is the Lord's day and Monday is Linda’s day,” Marshall said.
