Family bonds at barber shop

By Tiffany Blanchette

Three-year-old Patrick Greene Jr., right, gets his hair cut Tuesday by his father, Patrick Greene, of Carbondale, at Illusions Barber Shop on West Walnut Street. Patrick Greene, shop manager, said Illusions, which has been around for about 10 years, sees family members as well as many regular customers from as far as Mt. Vernon for cuts. Paresh Darji, a returning customer from Marion, said he became a regular customer three years ago after stopping at the family business on his daily commute. “I keep coming back because they are such great people,” Darji said. “It’s on my way home, and I enjoy stopping.”
