About Redtop

The Redtop Barbershop is located in picturesque Rossland, British Columbia.  Nestled between the Monashee and Selkirk mountain ranges in the heart of the West Kootenays, we are the only Barbershop in town. 

Sit in our antique, and functionally restored Berninghaus barber chair (circa 1901!).  Sit back, relax, sip a hot or cold drink while reading the latest ski or bike mag, listen to some tunes, watch the game, shoot some pool, play some darts, or just stare at our mountain views from the couch. Beard trims, wash, hot towel treatments, and scalp massages are all part of the experience!

Why Redtop?  Well, Rossland is often synonymous with nearby Red Mountain, upon which you'll find one of our signature grueling climbing trails entitled "Redtop"!  Plus, the name just rolls off of the tongue nicely.  We we certainly do not discriminate against gingers, and we think the name helps puts that across.  :-)

UPDATE:  REDTOP BARBERSHOP IS TEMPORARILY CLOSED as of March 24th, 2024:

Unfortunately, due to work-related repetitive strain, and the physical ailments now affecting her as a result, Tennille was forced to sadly close the shop on March 22nd, 2024. At the moment, due to those physical effects, it looks like it might be the end of a hardworking, yet extremely rewarding, 32 year-long hairdressing and barbering career...but she says never say never!!
 
There is at least a possibility the shop may reopen with another Barber or Barbers in the future, but that is only one potentiality.
Tennille would like to pass along her sincerest, heartfelt gratitude to her many many many incredible clients for the support over the course of her career, and for the past decade here in Rossland in particular. Each of you, without fail, always enriched and brightened her day! She will most dearly miss seeing your faces regularly and the conversations that would occur with you in her chair.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!
