The barbershop at 40 Caroline St. got a name change recently when Saratoga Springs’ Daniel Breen took it over from its former owner, Steve Vilot.

Breen, a cosmetologist and a barber, has been under Vilot’s employ at Sim’s for about a year, he said, and was ready to transition to the role of business owner.

The shop is now called Swagger. It is remaining open for cuts and shaves while Breen is in the process of making it his own.

Check back with In the Biz for an update on his progress in November.

For appointments, call Breen at 260-2112.
