REGAN | IN MEMORIAM

We’ve lost a wonderful part of our lives. 

Barber. Friend. Brother. Regan was one of us. His laugh was heartwarming, his humor was wicked and he brought a calm, kind presence to any room he was in.

We are lucky having had him in our lives and will miss him every day.

MATT | LITTLE BARBER

Matt is Ohio, born and raised. He lived in Detroit for a year after college, then moved to Colorado for 10 years. After a spell in Massachusetts, he landed in Austin, where he plans to stay.

When considering a career change, his wife gave him a gift package that included a haircut and hot lather shave. He enrolled in barber school the following week and has been in love with the craft ever since. Matt has been a barber since 2013 and is committed to his trade. He’s taken classes with the Schorem Barbers in Rotterdam and loves tight fades, pompadours, and long flow equally.

DAN | LITTLE BARBER

Danielle (affectionately Dan) was born and raised in Northern California. She moved to Austin in 2008 and never looked back! Thanks to COVID, she decided on a career change and enrolled in cosmetology school. However, she fell in love with barbering and never looked back! 

From bald fades, long flow and everything in between, Dan is a balanced haircutter and amazing member of the team!

When she's not at the shop, you can find Dan dancing around her house to punk with her three boys or watching anything true crime. She and her husband enjoy everything Star Wars, going to shows and playing darts.

Dan's goal in life is to live her authentic self. From her colorful hair, her pink workstation or the rainbows and glitter that follow her, she hopes to inspire others to do the same.

SAM | LITTLE BARBER

She honed her skills at IMPACT Barber Academy, earning her license in 2025, all while having the opportunity to apprentice under Matt at Little Barber.

KIRK | LITTLE BARBER

Kirk was born in Austin, and although he has lived all over the U.S., he has been back in Austin for over a year now and he plans to stay.

A graduate from Impact Barber Academy in North Austin, he earned his barber’s license in 2025. His barbering journey began in high school, cutting hair for his fellow bandmates. After several years as a welder he took a hard look at barbering. Kirk discovered that hair hair is art and every day in the shop is like hanging out with good friends. Which is exactly what he was looking for.

Kirk has always had a love for pompadours and classic gentleman cuts, but he also appreciates a good set of curls.

On his days off, you can find Kirk at Barton Springs or tending to plants all around town.
