| - Ok so where do I start? I guess just the way it happens.
As you are driving down 32nd street from bell Buzz Boyz is located on the right hand side about 300yards from greenway.
I had passed it the first time because it looked like a hole in the wall, shady, run down joint. But since I had made the trip specifically for this location I figured, might as well.
Walking inside its like, a deceptive ruse was put upon the exterior, The place is clean and neat. The Barber walls are old wood. The chairs are dark brown leather, reminds me of the old 60's style Barber chairs. Contrasting the old new york style chairs and wood are small Flat panel televisions at every chair as well as one large one in the corner of the room.
All the Televisions were tuned to a local channel with a football game on (Cardinals and Vikings for my trip).
There was a Man giving a haircut (Whom I found out his name is Jonathon) when I walked in and I had barely sat a min when a young lady (Who Turned out to be Jonathon's Wife Olga) came out and asked if I was ready.
I told Olga I was here for a Cut and a Shave. She asked me If I would like a cold beverage (its complimentary she says) Wasnt thirsty so i declined, but what? really? who does that anymore? I love that!
She does the normal barber thing, apron, towel, asks how short, yadda yadda...Then she does something quite rare...She proceeds to cut my hair....slowly and meticulously. You could tell she cared about what she was doing. She wasnt slow as in dragging ass but slow as in careful. She didnt rush through the job. We proceeded to small talk as is usual (which is hard because im not much of a conversationalist) Then when she was done she proceeded to edge up the back and ears....WITH A STRAIGHT RAZOR AND CREAM! I was surprised. I mean I was gonna get a shave but never expected to be edged in the same precise manner..so onto the Shave.
I have never had a professional shave. I didnt know what to expect but OMG..I am now a firm believer that EVERY woman should learn how to do that.
ok so the important stuff. Olga first put a lotion on and then a cream she proceeded to apply a hot towel. She then went into shave mode. Again like with the hair she was meticulous (which is very understandable considering blade VS skin) She constantly was feeling for rough hairs, and making sure it was well cut and I was comfortable.
All told the bill was very reasonable, The owners are good people, they do a service that is sadly so brushed off and forgotten very well. I have been looking for a neighborhood barber as have my 2 roomates and I must say..We have found it.
