| - I haven't had a hair cut downtown in a long time, but I had put off my haircut for far too long and was looking to try a new place. Barbers are kind of like dentists or doctors; it might take a while to find one that you like, but once you find them, you stick with them.
After reading the reviews on Yelp, I decided to give this place a try. It is getting difficult to find barbers these days and there is truly no substitute for the cut provided by a barber vs. a stylist when it comes to mens hair.
The place is comfortable and tastefully appointed. I like that it felt normal inside and not snobby or overly trendy like some places downtown or in Shadyside. When I opened the door, two Yorkies came running to greet me and continued to play the entire time I was there.
I had a moment of panic when I realized that Brandon was busy with other clients and I wouldn't get my sought after barber cut, but Rachel did an excellent job with my hair and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her work.
Overall, I was very happy with the service, the cut, and the price. It ended up being $25 for a cut with wash, which is pretty fair given the quality, attention to detail, and location. It looks like I found my new place.
