Gee's Clippers Barber and Beauty Salon

A friend recently sent me this picture and I actually got a little emotional. This picture was taken at the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony of the Gee’s MKE Wellness Clinic in my barbershop. Behind that mic is a man that grew up in a household of 7 kids (all 1 year apart), a sickly mother an overworked father, living in the inner city of Milwaukee. I had a speech impediment where as I couldn’t speak a full sentence without stuttering. Statistics says I shouldn’t be behind that mic, speaking in front of a few hundred people, let alone own the establishment where we are. Don’t tell me what God can’t do! I’m in the process of developing a program to show any aspiring barbershop/salon owner EXACTLY how to build a successful business. I have so much in store for y’all in 2021! Stay tuned! #Gee’sMasterclass #Coming2021 #GodIsGood #DefyTheOdds #Blessed #GeesMKEWellnessClinic #GeeTurns50

Our showroom will look a little messy over the next couple of days as we prepare to move out of our current building. Please bear with us as we make this transition. We’re still open but a sales associate might have to assist you in finding the items you need. #moving #newshowroom #mke #feinbrothers #BID8 #kingdriveis #historickingdrive #mlkdr #changemakers #communitystrong #mkehome #mlkanchor #commercialsales #residentialsales
