| - Heres the short review. I spent more than i ever thought I should on a "haircut" But I wanted to experience a straight razor shave. So I ponied up the dough. Review? The Bride of over 20 years was stunned and said I have never looked better.
For those of you who know what that means, you understand why this is a priceless thing worth ANYTHING *nudge nudge*
Old school, leather seats, lots of magazines etc. and every station has a TV,
Since I went for the full treatment, the owner went all out and made time for my first straight razor shave.... holy smoke monster! this was the best shave I've ever had in y life..... it was the shave of my dreams! my skin never felt better!It lasted for DAYS! No afternoon shadow... it was orgasmic. My skin was sorta splotchy, so I took the owners recomendaion and did the facial so wrapped in warn wowels, i let like Al Capone wrapped up as my skin opened its poers.... I just needed a cigar sicking out (not a smoker, but a prop would be fun!)
having someone slice across your neck with a straight razor is a matter of trust, but this trust is soooooo payed back in spades.
Harircut? basic haircut, but when a artisian does it, it becomes elivated to... better... but better.
I have one issue, and that is that from start to finish, I was bombarded by the owner trying to sell me creams, oils, shaving kits etc. Yes YES I want them! but I just blew $100 on the greatest man-spa experience
of my life, but please, couldnt you try and hold back on the hardcore pushy salesmanship and let me enjoy the experience withought selling me in every breath? I admit, the result was awesome, but the experience was marred.
Not t mention that when I returned, I was berated for not coming back sooner, even though I told him I think so highly of him that I traveled from Gilbert to north scottesdale to see him when I can. I though te economy is tough, but I dont like walking in to a frown, and a scolding.
But te man is a craftsman in he extreme so while I'm searching for other options, this remains the bar I judge everyone else by.
And the massage after is a welcome bit of yummmmmmmm
Loses a point for constant infomercialism, and berating me for not coming in more, instead of appreciating the fact that I drive almost 100 .miles round trip because of his skill. Which is also why I would love to find a place closer
