It could hurt their ability to market themselves as a men's barber shop that specializes in men's fashion (and apparently there are a lot of men that prefer this) if female clientele becomes more prevalent in their establishment. People say that it is only one girl, but in a small city like Regina, word of mouth spreads fast and I don't think it would be unreasonable to expect a clientele shift if they changed their policy.

The whole idea of such a business is probably outdated, but I'm not the one would put my life's work into making it my living. Sucks to be him I guess.
