Chapter 1: Bolt Barber ShopThe barbershop is a family business that has been in the Bolt family for four generations and has been running for over 40 years. Grandfather Marcus Bolt came to Lucky Land when he was 20 years old in search of better opportunities for his family in Jamaica.It is interesting to see how the history of the Bolt family and their immigration to Lucky Land has been intertwined with the history of the barbershop and its presence in the community for so many years. The Bolt family barbershop is not only a place where hair is cut, but it is also a place where people meet and socialize. For example, some clients may come just to chat and hang out, even if they don't need a haircut right now.
