Meet Our Barbers
Stephanie — Owner
Family remains at the heart of everything I do. I’m married, a proud parent of two adult children, and a dog mom to six dogs. I’m also incredibly proud that one of my children is following in our family’s footsteps and becoming the fifth generation of barbers.
From my grandparents’ chairs to my own shop today, Bullpen Barbershop is a continuation of something our family has built for generations. I’m proud to keep that tradition alive in the community I’ve always called home — and I’m excited to welcome you into the Bullpen family.


Barbering isn’t just a career for me — it’s my family’s legacy.
I’m a fourth-generation barber and the proud owner of Bullpen Barbershop, right here in the Tumwater community where I was born and raised. I’ve been a licensed barber since 2007, and before building my own path in the industry, I had the privilege of learning directly from my grandparents. My grandfather dedicated 66 years to barbering, while my grandmother spent 36 years behind the chair. Growing up around them, I learned that being a great barber is about much more than giving a great haircut — it’s about building relationships, making people feel welcome, and taking pride in your craft.
Today, I’m honored to carry their legacy forward through Bullpen Barbershop.
As a master barber, I specialize in all aspects of barbering and enjoy working with clients of all ages and styles. One of the things I’m especially passionate about is working with children. I believe a haircut should be a positive experience, not something a child has to dread. I take pride in creating a patient, friendly, and loving environment where kids can feel comfortable being themselves. I also have a strong passion for working with children who are neurodivergent and understand that every child may need a different approach, pace, or level of patience.
Kris — Barber
Hi, I’m Kris Brady, a licensed barber dedicated to helping every client look and feel their best. Since earning my barber license in 2024, I’ve been honing my craft while working in a corporate barbershop environment, gaining valuable experience with clients of all ages and styles.
As a proud husband, father of five, and dog owner, I understand the importance of creating a welcoming, comfortable experience where everyone feels at home in the chair. My passion for barbering goes beyond haircuts—it’s about building relationships, earning trust, and helping people leave with confidence.
I’m excited to begin the next chapter of my career at Bullpen Barbershop, where I’m building my own brand and growing my clientele. Whether you’re looking for a fresh fade, a classic cut, or a reliable barber you can count on, I’m committed to providing quality service, attention to detail, and an exceptional experience every visit.
I look forward to welcoming you to my chair and becoming your barber for years to come.
