David’s Greenwood Barbershop

A traditional barber shop that is a cut above the rest

Posted

There was a time when you knew your barber like you knew your brother – and you shared your life story with him, just as though he was your brother.  It seems as though those days are long gone now in a world of franchised salons where different stylists are on hand every time.

But for customers of David’s Greenwood Barbershop in Warwick, that neighborhood feeling of familiarity and comfort still exists, and is partly why they return time and time again ~ generation after generation.

This is certainly true of second-generation customer Glen Motta whose father Ernest sat long ago in the very same swivel chair as Glen does today.  And now Glen’s two sons Brady (age 15) and Cooper (age 17) are regulars at this nostalgic barber shop on Post Road ~ the tradition continues!    

David’s Greenwood Barbershop is a family-run business that knows the value of its loyal customers and the value of a business that marked its 30th year of cutting and styling men and boys’ hair in 2023. Dave Picozzi, the barbershop’s owner, and his son Geno are the kind of guys you want to sit down and shoot the breeze with. You really become members of a special extended family here. 

Many may ask what has kept this longstanding business so relevant since 1993?  Why do multiple generations come here when there are so many other options? The reason for the success of David’s Greenwood Barber Shop is their consistency, affordability, and attention to detail. There are no frills or slick gimmicks here, just the kind of quality service you would expect from a business that has endured over two and a half decades of competition, ever-changing trends, times of economic uncertainty and even a pandemic! Customers here love the casual, un-rushed atmosphere ~ as Glen says, sometimes, it feels “more like therapy” than just a haircut!

David’s Greenwood Barbershop has always cared first and foremost about their customers’ satisfaction ~ nothing less. The Picozzi’s are grateful to their many customers, both new and longtime, and thank them for their loyal patronage. They acknowledge that staying busy in a world with so many competing barbers isn’t easy.  They know it takes the loyalty, trust and friendship of their many devoted customers. 

David’s Greenwood Barbershop has been an steadfast presence on the Warwick landscape for a long time, right where it has always been located at 2879 Post Road on the stretch of road before the roundabout at Gorton Pond.
