Sheila Hunter Tubic returns to the Bowen Barber Shop this month.

Life is a winding road! It was a career change for me when I first opened the Barber Shop in 1997. 

I sold the business to Barb Murphy in 2000 and moved to California, returning in 2001 to open the 4th and Alma Barber Shop. After three years at Alma, I married and settled in White Rock for 15 years with my husband and daughter. I continued barbering throughout this time at Frank’s Barber Shop at 11th and Granville. 

I am so grateful to Jeanette Wrenshall for giving me the opportunity to purchase the Bowen Barber Shop. I wish her success and happiness in her new endeavour.

At the moment I am doing spring cleaning, painting and some redecorating. While getting the shop ready, it’s been so heartwarming and welcoming to see old familiar faces passing by. I want to let everyone know that, even though I am not taking appointments yet, the phone number for the Barber Shop has not changed: 947-2239. I will return your calls and texts as soon as possible to book your appointments, and look forward to serving you soon. 

The target date for reopening is July 29.

Thank you, Bowen Island, for your patience and understanding during this month of July while we are closed, and I apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. 

I want to thank you for your friendship and support, and can’t wait to open my doors at the end of the month.
