Welcome
to Punch Up

Anyone can punch down. But you (and the world) deserve better.  At Punch Up Barber Shop, we aim higher and work with you to take your hair to the next level. Founded in 2024, we’re your friendly neighborhood barber shop offering shorter-style haircuts to folks of all ages and walks of life.

  • Davis DeVries-Dryer

    Davis has been cutting hair professionally since 2019 after attending Lansing Barber College. Growing up in Metro Detroit before migrating to Grand Rapids, he and his wife Jill have a daughter and son, both of whom are way cooler than either of them.

    Davis loves being a barber more every day. Pursuing a long-time dream, he opened Punch Up Barber Shop in summer 2024. He loves working with clients to find the perfect cut, being given the chance to provide people with an enjoyable, personal experience, and getting to build relationships and friendships one haircut at a time. Things like this make coming to work a privilege every day.

    Some things Davis will chat your ear off about: music, Star Wars, Bruce Springsteen, comic books, fantasy and sci-fi novels, Lord of the Rings, and whatever you’re reading, watching, or listening to. Davis can’t wait to see you around the shop!

  • Ian Smith

    Ian is originally a Lansing native, moving here in 2014 and attending Forest Hills Northern High School. After honing his customer service skills in the restaurant industry for his teenage years, he decided to take up a career in barbering, and has been cutting hair since 2020. Ian’s chair is the place to be if you enjoy good talks about Star Wars, baseball, or any other nerdy subject. He looks forward to working together with you to give you the perfect cut that fits you and your style!
