New Barber Shop to Open at Former Cathy's Cuts Locale

West Babylon-based barber shop coming to Deer Park Avenue around Nov. 1.

Well, that was quick!

A recently vacated storefront that belonged to Cathy's Cuts prior to the barber shop's move already has a new tenant working hard to renovate the inside – another barber.

West Babylon-based James Anthony's Barber Shop is expected to open his door "in or around" Nov. 1 at the Deer Park Avenue storefront.

The new owner, James Anthony, told Patch he was excited to finally get his shop into Babylon Village.

"I've been trying to get into Babylon for two-and-a-half years," the West Babylon native told Patch. "This is a great opportunity for me... and I just love the village.

"I wanted to come here and work here – I love the atmosphere."

His former barber shop was located in West Babylon at 380 Sunrise Highway South Service Road, a distance, he said, away from any sort of village-type feel.

The barber shop, he said, is expected to open in around Nov. 1 as he continues to make renovations to the space.
