Who We Are
The Executive Forum Barbershop is committed to reviving the art of authentic barbering. It is our belief that today's man has been deprived of a very basic luxury. Up until the early half of the 20th century a man was able to indulge himself by having a trusted confidant perform a seemingly mundane daily ritual. This confidant was his barber and the ritual was the removal of facial hair. A simple task that when performed by a skilled professional could yield not only hygienic benefits but a rejuvenation of mind and spirit as well.The executive forum barbershop has been providing grooming services to downtown des moines for over 50 years. The shop was originally founded by donald d. wagner in 1949. Don estabished the Executive Forum as an appointment barber - and we still do business that way today.Scott Sales purchased the Executive Forum in 2005 and maintains an authentic barbershop atmopshere while providing grooming services to men. He is committed to reviving the art of barbering and is active with barbers international. Scott enjoys being located in downtown Des Moines and plans to care for his clientele for many years to come.
