Whitney's Hair Salon

In 1952, Bill and Mildred Whitney moved from Paola to Baldwin City and purchased the Eighth Street
Barber Shop. In 1966, Bill opened Whitney's Barber Shop at 701 High Street. Martha (Whitney) Wright, cosmetologist, joined Bill in 1979 and together they created a barber and beauty shop and called it Whitney's Creative Hair Designs. In 1991, Martha purchased the shop from Bill. The Wright family legacy continues as Emily Wright, daughter-in-law of Martha, purchased the shop in January 2013. The Whitney/Wright legacy is still in place with the new name of Whitney's Hair Salon.

The Whitney and Wright families want to thank Baldwin City for over 60 years of loyalty. We invite you to come by and see our newly remodeled facility and explore the additional services that are now offered to our customers.
