Our waiting room has a full size pool table, dart board, big screen TV and a nicely stocked "coffee" bar. We invite you to come by, have a cup of coffee or a cold one on us and give us a try.
Ryan & Debbie
The Good Life Barber Shop is the brainchild of Debbie and Ryan Vidotto (mother/son). We started planning the concept for this barber shop several years ago. Our goal was to provide a very nice ambiance for our barber shop clients. The "family" business is OPEN!
Most true barber shops are less than inviting places to hang out these days so we decide to provide a space that has entertainment with a pleasing (most importantly clean) almost gentleman's parlor feel to see if we could revive the concept of "networking at the barber shop".

The Good Life Barber Shop
Location
Ryan Vidotto's pleasant customer service attitude shows through with every client. He is a stickler for detail and every haircut is a reflection of his desire to make the client happy! Ryan does incredible beard designs and excellent haircuts. Ryan is a huge UFC fan and a personal friend of the WEC's welter weight champion, Carlos Condit. Ryan's little boy, Blane, turned two in November. Mandy, Ryan's wife, and Blane are his passions.
Debbie Vidotto is Ms. Positive. Debbie's customers experience a great haircut with a winning attitude that for most, is catchy. In addition to haircuts, Debbie's specialities are color for men and facial hair design. Debbie's pet peave is getting a haircut shorter than the client wanted. Debbie is an avid dancer and loves to scoot a boot with Roy, her sweetie, to Austin's live country music wonders, so much so that she and Roy just reopened Williamson County's oldest honkey-tonk, The Possum Creek Dance Hall and Cafe.

Downtown Austin, TX
We are dedicated to keeping all the old barber traditions alive. We proudly and skillfully use the straight razor for face and neck shaves, we use clippers, clipper-over-comb and scissors, use an Oster massager for a nice shoulder massage at the end of each service and develop relationships with our clients just like the old barbers did!
