Deshawn Ellis

Owner & Master Barber

Precision Fades & Classic Cuts · 20 Years Experience

Deshawn cut hair at other Nashville shops for 12 years before opening Ironside in 2018, determined to build a shop where the chair, the pricing, and the schedule were all done right. He still works the chair every day the shop is open.
