Harmony Barber Shop – A Hidden Walt Disney World® Resort Treat
To many of us, Walt Disney World® Resort transports us to ‘another time and place’ in our lives. I have often found myself walking through Magic Kingdom® Park reliving memories from my childhood as I walk down the nearly unchanged Main Street, U.S.A.® Area with the picturesque Cinderella’s Castle centered in the sky at the end of the street.
Sometimes, it isn’t even past trips that are called to the forefront of my memory, it may just be recalling the joy of family and friends…or losing myself in the creativity of youthful years gone by. Whatever it is, Walt Disney World® Resort is a place for both memories to be relived and dreams to be created.
On Main Street, U.S.A.® Area in Magic Kingdom® Park there is an often overlooked storefront that really does transport you back to simpler times, where the chatter of news and gossip fills the air, in a throw-back barber shop that embodies small town U.S.A.
At the Harmony Barber Shop inside Magic Kingdom® Park you can slip into chair for a haircut as you enjoy the atmosphere, and banter, of a traditional barber shop. Behind the signature candy-striped pole on the outside sits a bustling shop full of activity and excitement.
Serving around 400 customers a week, one of Harmony Barber Shop’s specialties is ‘first-haircuts’! Young visitors who are having their ‘first-haircut’ ever are treated to some extra special surprises including Mickey Mouse stickers, bubbles, “My 1st Haircut” Mouse Ears, special ‘pixie dust’ and a certificate!
As an added treat, the Dapper Dan barbershop quartet visits the shop daily…singing and entertaining guests with their spot-on melodies and funny antics.
There are plenty of antiques to check out inside the shop too, including a cash register from 1912 that the barbers still use to ring up their sales!
Located near the Emporium gift shop, Harmony Barber Shop accepts appointments at least one day in advance from Walt Disney World® Resort guests and welcomes walk-ups without reservations on a daily, first-come, first-served basis! Haircuts range from $15 to $19…and don’t miss the popular colored hair gel that will help you stand out for the day!
