Meet Jimmy Sulimay Sr 
Jim Sulimay was the original founder of Sulimay’s Fairmount location. Jim came from a family in the industry. His father and grandfather were both Barbers, as well as many of his 18 brothers and sisters being Hairstylists and Barbers. After he got out of the Army, Jim was lucky to be given the opportunity to apprentice under his Brother-in-Law at his shop in what is now known as University City. In 1963 Jim opened a one chair Barbershop in Fairmount, known as Jimmy Sulimay’s Barbershop. He kept his Barbershop the same for 35 years until one of his 4 children took him up on his offer to join him in the business. In 1995 Jimmy Sulimay’s Barbershop began its evolution into Sulimay’s Hair Design, a Hair Studio for both Men and Women. He continued his Barbering Craft here until 2017. At 78 years old he was forced into retirement due to medical issues. Jim still stops in for visits to catch up with old friends, clients & co-workers, in which are all happy to see him.
