Our team
Ray MinorBarberGrowing up Ray remembers hanging out in his grandfather's barbershop in Benton, IL. Through the years, Ray has seen the decline in Barber Shops and desires to bring back that old school barbershop feel that he remembers. Ray feels men need a place to go, between work and home to be a guy that is not a bar. Ray hopes the Armed Barber Shop will provide that place.
Jarrett FitchBarberGraduated barber school in 2021 and specializes in classic cuts, beard work and straight razor shaves. Jarrett's goal is to give every guest an old time barber experience and for them to leave the shop feeling an increased level of confidence. In his spare time, he enjoys music and St Louis Cardinals baseball with his family.
