Across the swirl of a barber pole, in ornate cursive, it reads: “The Working Class.”

“These guys need to be able to let loose and express themselves and their emotions,” said Matt, a mentor who cuts hair at a wing that includes two seats and a barber pole.

The famous barber pole came about as a way for barbers to advertise their bloodletting services as putting bowls of blood in the shop window was frowned upon.

According to the Avenue Five Institute, the red of the barber pole signified bloodletting, white the medical bandages, and blue was said to stand for non-oxgenated blood.

According to Hornig, in Nebraska, only barbershops are allowed to use a barber pole as a form of advertising.
