Selman & Co. Barbershop
Selman & Co. barbershop is located in the same building as the former CVS location on Church Street.
A 46-year-old Crestline barbershop is looking for a new home. Selman & Co. has been located in the former CVS building on Church Street for 25 years but now will have to vacate the space by the end of May to allow for Smith’s Variety and a new restaurant to occupy the building.
Owner Buddy Selman said his landlord, Donna Gray, notified him on March 17 that their lease would end.
Selman said that he understands Gray’s business decision but is concerned about finding a new location in time.
“We are at our wit’s end,” Selman said. “I don’t know what to do.”
The business was originally known as Oak Street Barber Shop and was located in the current La Paz location for 22 years.
Selman and fellow barber Dale Meisner, who has been at the shop 35 years, are looking for a 320-340-square-foot space to lease. Selman said they have talked with Robert Jolly and the Scott family about potential space in Crestline but have not had any firm leads on space.
In the meantime, they have been collecting customers’ contact information so they can notify them of their new location.
“All we want to do is stay in the village,” Selman said. “We have got to make a living.”
