When Gabe Gonzales opened Bellarmine Barber Shop in 1953, he wasn’t thinking about starting a business that would last seven decades. He just wanted to stop working 16-hour days for another barber shop so he could spend more time with his young and growing family.

“My wife decided it. She said, ‘you’re not going to any of the kids’ games or taking us out on Sundays or weekends’,” Gonzales, now 96, told me as we sat in the shop this week.
