With Christmas coming I wanted to get a decent haircut so I'd look good and be able to impress the family. The Yelp reviews for Man Cave were great, and I loved the way they list their services so clearly. Also love the student discount. Javier cut my hair and the first thing he asked was what I do for a living, and I think he definitely took my answer into consideration and gave me a haircut that looks the part. I was a little worried that it would take a long time (I usually go to a cheap walk-in place whose stylists manage to take 30mins at least with a pair of clippers) but I had my hair cut (scissor cut!), washed and styled in just under 30 mins. It's not a place I can afford regularly (only because TTC means it would cost an additional $6 vs being able to walk to my local dive) but will definitely be back again when I need to look sharper than usual.
Also, for what they do I think their prices are super reasonable and good value. They're not expensive in general, just that they're just out of reach of what I can usually afford. On the other hand, their reasonable prices bring exceptional quality services into my "snack bracket", which has never been the case before.
