Barber David Rivera Jr. brings 16 years of family tradition to his new Funky Town Barbershop, offering specialized grooming services while continuing a multigenerational legacy in the industry.

Barber David Rivera Jr. has opened Funky Town Barbershop at the Salon and Spa Galleria Weisenberger in Fort Worth, Texas, bringing his 16 years of industry experience and third-generation barbering heritage to the local community. The new establishment offers comprehensive grooming services including traditional and contemporary haircuts, specialty cuts, services for children and seniors, fades, beard trims, straight razor shaves, and hot towel shaves.
Rivera represents a continuation of family tradition in the barbering profession, having learned the craft from watching his mother, a stylist, and his grandfather, who cut hair for five decades. What began as a hobby for Rivera evolved into a business and ultimately became his passion. His approach centers on creating memorable experiences for every customer, with the goal of making each person who visits his shop leave feeling exceptional. This commitment to customer satisfaction is reflected in his positive online reviews.
The barbershop operates with varying hours throughout the week: Monday from 12 pm to 7 pm, Wednesday through Friday from 10 am to 7 pm, and Saturday from 8 am to 5 pm. While walk-ins are accepted, appointments are recommended, and clients are encouraged to contact Rivera first to ensure availability. To schedule appointments, clients can visit Rivera's booking site.
To celebrate the new location, Rivera is offering a five-percent discount for all new clients. The barbershop's position within the Salon and Spa Galleria Weisenberger provides strategic advantages, including proximity to Sundance Square, Camp Bowie, Westover Hills, University Park, and downtown Fort Worth. Customers benefit from ample free parking and handicap accessibility with wide hallways.
The Salon and Spa Galleria concept represents a growing trend in the beauty industry, offering salon suites designed for independent professionals. With 23 locations across the United States, the company has established itself as one of the fastest-growing privately held salon studio rental operations. For professionals interested in space availability at the Weisenberger location, inquiries can be made through the salon chain's website.
