years of cutting hair in Downtown Macon

It started with a man who wanted to own his own business.

VJ's belongs to Victor Dixon, known to everybody in the chair as VJ. He calls Macon his hometown, and he didn't start out behind the clippers. His work was in manufacturing, and after he was displaced from his job twice in five years, he decided it was time to go into business for himself. He chose barbering.

He picked up the trade in 2009 and opened VJ's in downtown Macon, just wanting to be able to afford his bills. He had no idea it would become what it is today. VJ's has now been open 14 years, with a crew of barbers and a loctician, and a lot of families who keep coming back.

“It is not just about the haircut. I have a lot of clients where I have watched their kids grow.”
Victor Dixon, speaking to WPGA, August 2025
“I knew nothing about cutting hair until 2009.”

I was visiting Macon last weekend and just randomly walked in for a hair cut. Quick service and a really comfort atmosphere. VJ, the owner, did a great job and I will definitely be back for a shave AND a cut when I’m back in town. 5 stars! Thanks VJ!

Great customer service!! Very patient!!! Not crowded!! Took my son who is now 3 for his very 1st haircut & the guy was able to cut his hair with no problem. Even with my son crying the whole time. Lol. He was even trying to make my son feel comfortable by talking & joking with him. Definitely loved the results from my son having a head full of hair to hardly having no hair!! My son's new barber!!

I took both of my boys their. Reminds me of the barbershop my brother went to when he was younger. It has been a long time since I've been to classic Black barbershop that understand to give a good cut to my boys. I'm sure they cut all types of hair, though I know exactly what I'm looking for when it comes to getting my boys cut up. This is just the first cut, and my boys are beyond satisfied. They were smiling hard. They each had a different barber. We'll see what comes of this 30 min drive. ✌🏽

Stopped in for my nephews to get a trim, stayed for the Mrs Pac-Man and the good company! Sean(Shawn?) and Anton really seems to enjoy their profession and take pride in their shop. And can tolerate some hyper toddlers with ease! XD
