Rosewood Barbershop opened its doors in the summer of 1954 on the corner of Rosecrans and Woodruff in the city of Bellflower, California. Rosewood’s ownership has included three generations of Master Barbers and has been owned by Francis Sampang since November 2005.
Francis Sampang set forth to conceptualize haircuts in a way that would represent a complete look. Surpassing the limitations of just a haircut, he wanted to establish the barbershop as a place of style. Incorporating a retail component in the shop, Rosewood transformed a traditional barbershop into just that. In 2007, Rosewood Royale opened next door expanding the retail direction of Rosewood with a separate brick and mortar location carrying an assortment of popular streetwear brands. Three years later, Francis decided to specialize the boutique aspect and co-founded Rosewood Cutters; an internal apparel and merchandise brand.
Rosewood Barber has emerged as a premier men’s grooming destination in Orange County and in the Los Angeles area. Bringing the same craftsmanship and attention to detail to the newest location, Rosewood looks to expand the company while continuously striving to perfect and provide the best haircut experience.
