Before opening Good Looks Barbershop, Luis Enrique Rodriguez was cutting hair in his mother’s basement. According to a 2024 Chelsea Record profile, he began during his junior year at Chelsea High School, practicing on relatives and classmates. That early interest eventually became a business at 363A Washington Avenue in Prattville.

Rodriguez, a member of Chelsea High’s Class of 2015, went on to attend New England Hair Academy in Malden. He opened Good Looks in April 2022, transforming a former phone store into a barbershop. His connection to Chelsea also includes years playing local baseball, where he credited coach John Montes with lessons about both the sport and life.

Today, Rodriguez’s booking page lists services including fades, tapers, comb-overs, shear work, and haircuts with facial-hair grooming. Customers can choose a haircut alone or a service that includes beard or other facial-hair work. Reviewing the service descriptions before booking helps match the appointment to the cut and grooming requested.

The shop’s Chelsea roots remain central to its identity. Its website describes a business founded by someone raised in the community, while the Chelsea Chamber of Commerce highlights its Prattville location and precision haircuts. Good Looks now lists locations in both Chelsea and Malden, with separate booking options for each.

For Chelsea customers, the Washington Avenue location lists Monday–Saturday hours of 9 a.m.–6 p.m. and a phone number of 617-669-0177. Visit the website to select the Chelsea location and a barber. Behind the everyday haircut is a local entrepreneur whose career began among the people he grew up with.
