Tylor Hockenberry in front of his barbershop
A new Harrisburg barbershop provides fresh cuts and good vibes.
Down to Earth Barbershop, owned by Tylor Hockenberry, opened its doors on June 1 at 215 Reily St. in Midtown.
Hockenberry has been a barber for about four years and always dreamed of owning his own shop. Recently that dream came to fruition.
“I like the freedom and stability,” he said. “I like to create my own environment.”
Hockenberry described the atmosphere of his new barbershop as similar to a spa.
“It’s really relaxed,” he said. “I wanted to create something chill, and I think it’s a perfect fit for the community over here.”

The shop offers men’s and boys’ haircuts.
Hockenberry shared that he plans to foster a relaxed environment through options such as hot towel shaves and facial services.
“I want there to be an upscale type of feel to the shop,” he said.
Hockenberry is also passionate about networking with the community and is interested in using and promoting local products.
“I can’t wait to talk to a lot of people in the neighborhood,” he said.
Down to Earth Barbershop is open on Tuesdays through Fridays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Customers can book appointments on Down to Earth’s Booksy page.
