Tucked into one of the most visible corners in town, the four-chair barbershop at Saguaro and El Lago boulevards has been a Fountain Hills staple for 15 years.
And for owner Sal Ripoli, cutting hair is still his favorite thing to do.
For six days a week, Ripoli and his hairstylist Maria Teresa Vargas welcome a stream of loyal clients — some of whom have been coming to Fontana Hair for several years. With their easygoing banter and deep roots in the community, Ripoli runs more than just a salon; it’s a place where stories are shared, friendships are formed and everyone leaves looking and feeling their best.
