Continental Barber Shop
319 Victoria Street V2C2A3 Kamloops, BC, Canada

It’s Official We are opening back up After a long hiatus due to COVID-19, we finally have the OK to re-open The safety of our staff and clients is our primary concern, so please note the following as you prepare to get that tangled mane made beautiful again ... We will have a slow opening on Friday, May 15 and Saturday, May 16 with one barber on duty (we want to make sure we test our safety procedures before going crazy) We will be closed Sunday, May 17 and Monday, May 18 We know you’ve just had two months in isolation, but this pandemic has taught us that family time is the most valuable possession we have Starting Tuesday, May 19th, we will be open 9 am to 5 pm with three barbers working All clients MUST have an appointment. You can only book appointments for that day (no pre-bookings). You can either call the shop on the day you’d like a cut or use the appointment book located just outside the shop to book a time (pen will be cleaned after each use). If you feel the need to wear a mask during your appointment, you must supply it Doors to the shop will be locked at all times and opened for you at your appointment time. Unfortunately, we can no longer have a waiting room. The price of our services will be going up to cover the high cost of the safety measures we need to have in place. We take this very seriously, so thank you for your understanding. New Prices are: Cuts - $23 Beards- $18 Seniors and children under 11 - $19 Hot Shaves - $32 If you are sick or have been outside of the country within the last two weeks, we are unable to allow you into the shop. We will refuse service to anyone we believe may be sick. This is all new to us, so please be patient as we adjust to the new way to do business Thanks and we look forward to seeing you again

Good News - It looks like we'll be opening up very soon. Tentatively for mid-May. We still need to confirm dates and procedures so stay tuned. We can't wait to see you all.

COVID-19 Update First of all - to all of our incredible clients, we hope you and your families are staying safe. From the messages we are receiving from customers, it’s apparent that people are anxious to get a trim and a shave. ... We understand!!! We know that when you are stressed and unsure (like those times when you are self-isolating during a pandemic), something as simple as a haircut makes you feel normal. We would love to help, but we are mandated to keep the shop shut down until that nasty curve is entirely flat. With a potential $5000 fine if we violate this Provincial order, we simply can not make any exceptions. There is simply no way we can cut your hair while maintaining a 6’ safe distance Thank you to all the people who have contacted us with messages of support. You are the reason why we love this town. The moment we find out we can re-open, we will update our Facebook page. Until then, stay safe, stay at home, and be kind to everyone.

Due to the COVID-19 crisis, we have made the decision to protect the wellbeing of our very valued customers and staff by closing for the time being. If it was possible to just wear a mask and ensure safety while cutting hair, we would, BUT it's proven that this is an ineffective safeguard against the spread of the Coronavirus and therefore irresponsible. We will be reassessing the situation on a daily basis and heeding the advice of officials as to the best course of action.... THANK YOU for your patronage and support. Stay safe, stay healthy and be kind to everyone. The world needs all the bright light it can handle. Lise, Kat, Cora, Sav and Brett
