About Me
MY NAME IS Rod
I’ve been a professional licensed barber for 20 years now. I was born and raised in the city of Chicago and as a teenager, I started cutting hair as a hobby and grew to love the craft. I eventually became full-time and soon after a barbershop owner as an adult. Being a barber has been greatly beneficial and satisfying servicing clients throughout the years! There's no plans of stopping anytime soon as I continue learning and change with the innovation and trends of the current times…
“I like my hair experience it is encouraging to know the conversation is positive and my cut will be top-notch for all opportunities for the next two weeks.”
“Rodney “Hotrod” is the truth!!!! Bald fade is what my son prefers and Rod has one of the best versions I’ve ever seen!!!! Tapper fade phenomenal!women,children,everyone will enjoy this barber 💈 who definitely is dedicated to his craft!!!!”
“The best barber on the west side/ westsuburbs, period.........”
“I’ve never been to a barber that takes passion in what he loves to do like Hot Rod does. From first walking in the door til you leave out he talks, jokes with you and makes sure you’re ok with his service. The shop is very clean, professional, well lit and has a comfortable atmosphere as if you’re at home sitting around watching television. His gift for cutting hair is awesome. I salute to one of, if not the best barber around...”
