Las Vegas Mixtape v28: Anyma’s Sphere Takeover, $10 Rock & Roll Haircuts, and More

Track #3: Get A Haircut @New Orleans Square in Commercial Center

If my head wasn’t shaved, I would definitely have my hair cut by JJ Jones at Get A Haircut at New Orleans Square in historic Commercial Center. Owned by Jones and Traci Simon, an ultra-sweet and rocking couple who both moved years ago to Vegas from LA, the barber shop has been open at this spot since 2021. Haircuts are attractively priced at $10.00, and a beard trim is $7.00. No wonder there’s a steady stream of customers here.

Notably, the eye-catching Get A Haircut doubles as a rock & roll museum. It’s stuffed with all kinds of memorabilia: stage wear by the artists who wore them, like Stephen Pearcy of Ratt; various instruments, including a guitar signed by Motley Crue’s new guitarist John 5; and concert posters and live photos, including some taken by Vegas-based David Plastik.

The space is a loving tribute to many of the artists, like Poison and Guns N’ Roses, who defined the Sunset Strip ‘80s era with hard chords, big hair, and even bigger dreams. If you worship at the shine of hard rock legends KISS, have your picture taken here with a life-size statue of Gene “God of Thunder” Simmons and show off your new Simmons-approved “cut.”
