New Barbershop Opened in Reading

Neno's Barbershop will be located on Main Street.

Neno Bonomo opened a new barbershop at 484 Main St. in Reading last week. Bonomo spent over 30 years working at the Clipper Barbershop in Wilmington and is now pleased to have his own shop. 

A lot of his customers were from Reading and Wilmington, so he thought Reading would be the ideal location for the new place, Neno's Barbershop. The Wakefield resident says that it's a true barbershop that will offer haircuts for $15 and free on-street parking, plus additional parking in the municipal lot adjacent to the shop.

Carmen Fama, another popular barber at the Clipper Barbershop, will join Bonomo on certain days. Fama worked at the Clipper Barbershop for over 17 years.

Opening the shop has been "a true joy because I still enjoy what I do," Bonomo said.
