The owner Tommy Upton is one of the warmest hearted people I know. His business has been open for nearly 70 years now and it still brings that “down home” barber shop feel to the community. About one year ago I lost my job when the economy went down and for the past year Mr. Upton has been providing me with free haircuts. This may not seem like a lot but when you are strapped for money every little bit helps and he didn’t have to be asked he does it because he wants to help. The quality of the work is phenomenal and every member of the staff are cheerful and there because they want to be and because they enjoy what they do. I have also witnessed Mr. Upton and staff helping families with small children that are having problems with the economy as well. In closing I would just like to say that Mr. Upton’s willingness to help the community in need, quality of staff and work, and dedication to his work makes Yates Barber Shop and awesome small business.

I have had an extremely oily scalp ever since becoming a teenager and am also very sensitive to chemicals, which means everytime I shampoo, my hands are full of hair that is shocked out of my scalp I have tried every known shampoo/conditioner/ thickener/hair regrowth shampoo or system out there, to no avail. By the time I entered my 30's, my hair was so thin that you could see my scalp all over the top of my head, and the 'shine'. Then, at the age of 43, I met Karenand within a month of treatments my friends began to say "What are you doing with your hair, it looks soooo good"? And, "It is so full"! I went to her to see if she could help me with my scalp condition, and low and behold I now after only a few months of treatments, Ihave a full head of hair. I no longer cringe at photos of my self because I don't see my scalp anymore, just a nice, normal head of hair. Thank you Karen, Thank You, THANK YOU!

SCALP SYSTEMS "Skin Care for the Scalp" Therapies successfully controls problematic scalp conditions, with the unique side effect of hair regrowth. 8 months ago my computer crashed leaving me to borrow others computers to continue my work. I am on the cusp of taking this to the public, making my need for the startup kit imparative. There is no cure, but these conditions can be managed. So many who suffer dermatitis conditions of the scalp will benefit from my bringing this new alternative to the public. My patent is in review, and I'm ready to take my concept to the next level.
