One of the best places I've ever been downtown. Although I never got a cut from Valentino, who gets a lot of praise, the lady (didn't get her name) also gives great cuts. The best part about Uptown Barber was just the sheer amount of attention to detail. For $25~ you really get what you pay for. I've been to Maya Hair Salon, and it's not even close to the quality here. Usually they spend maybe 10-15 minutes for my cut which ends up being extremely messy. And depending on who you get, it's either great, or totally off.
Thankfully, this place gets the job done. The barbers are very charismatic and charming and the location has a very old school vibe. Sad to see it close, but I hope we can find the barbers again or wish them the best in whatever they're doing.
