New York Magazine takes a look inside Persons of Interest, the hipster barbershop we’ve been tracking at 299 Smith Street in Carroll Gardens since August. The storefront had been vacant since Sal, who owned a barbershop there, passed away. As a nod to the past, Persons of Interest kept the original barber chairs, the pole, and the tropical Day-Glo mural. But the $20 dollar haircuts are a thing of the past; cuts are now $40, but come with a massage and free beers.
