Husky Barber Shop on Gadsden Highway, November 2013

Husky Barber Shop was a barber shop located at 7018 Gadsden Highway in Trussville.

The shop was originally opened at 102 North Chalkville Road in 1969 by Cecil Cornelius, who bought the Trussville Barber Shop from J. M. Herring and rebranded as Husky.

Cornelius moved the shop to Gadsden Highway in 2001. The shop, owned by Lacy Wright since 2012 when Cornelius retired, closed on April 30, 2020. The shop was sold to Greg and Beverly England who reopened that May as Husky's Scissor Barber Shop.
