Store more than doubles locations in 2013

Finley's Barber Shop, a men-only barber shop, is looking to expand in 2013.

The barber shop currently has a location in both Lakeway and West Lake Hills, and ownership is working on a two-store expansion in the Dallas area, including a location in Plano that opened in December and one in Southlake, which is scheduled for a February opening.

Finley's owners are also planning a third Austin location with a downtown shop. The barber shop, which co-owner Darren Peterson hopes to have open before SXSW in March, is to be located on Third Street between Colorado and Lavaca Streets and will feature a slightly different look than the other Austin locations, he said.

Peterson is still looking for more potential Austin locations and may soon reach an agreement to open a Finley's location in the Arboretum area in North Austin.

"It's all keeping me very busy," Peterson said about the surge in new locations.
