Hangtown Barbershop Located in downtown sandpoint, Idaho
Our story
Hangtown Barbershop came about after wanting to return to the roots of working in a traditional barbershop which focuses on classic barber cuts, straight razor shaves, and exceptional customer service. The shop culture has a passion for barbering which pays attention to the details while continuing to improve in the trade. Providing a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere is the main intention of the shop.
The name Hangtown pays homage to the nickname that was given to Sandpoint back in the 1800s. Sandpoint was at one point one of the toughest places in the Unites States. Sandpoint was full of whiskey dens, debauchery, and violence. Far from the picturesque resort town it is today.
