| - I booked an appointment at Crow's Nest Barber Shop after scoring an invite to their awesome 1 yr party. I loved the look of the shop (Vintage Barbering Tools, Antique What Not & Religious Items, My kind of stuff) I always drive to Waterloo, ON to get my haircut by the same man, every single time, But based on trusted recommendations on Yelp (Thanks Eric M.) I decided to see if they would take me... *Sorry Seann G, I am a Woman*
I have always loved a Barbershop Cut, I started out as a kid going to a barber with my Dad, a Small Town with few choices, but I always thought the barber shop was top notch with the cool aesthetic and fast, efficient no fluff service.
I booked an appointment with Matt (Book an Appointment, it is the best way) Matt was extremely friend, asked great questions about the cut and got to it pretty much right away. That being said, he took his time and made sure I was liking where it was going... which trust me, I didn't know it could be this good! I was offered a coke in a glass bottle ( my favourite drink of all time, specifically in that form) I revealed I am a licensed hairstylist & trained barber that works in the city too, and that I love what they do there. Matt gave me a haircut that still has me all fired up. I met Jon as well, quite the gentleman.
The Cut was great, the mood was good and the gentlemen working there are very much about the trade and the true aesthetic of the shop. I asked Matt if they are alright with having women in, and he said "For your Type of Haircut, Of course... We wouldn't turn you away these are the haircuts we cut. (I have a Classic Pomp Sidewinder, Faded) But They can do any men's cut with perfection!
With the haircut being the best I have had in ages, and Matt being so skilled and professional I will certainly see him again, he is my new barber in the city. (I may become an every 3 weeks girl) They also sell Lay-rite, a Heavy Gel Substance that rocks for Pomp's & Sidewinders & Flat Tops...
A few side notes, They have an apprentice there, I believe his name is Jimmy. He is very skilled *I saw him do a straight razor shave while I was there, flawless* He does Apprentice Cuts for $15.00, They are skilled and make China Town look like... well China Town... and you are getting a great cut for $10 Off at the most rad place in Kensington by far. Support the new guy, It will pay off for you when he is the old guy and he has known your bobble head for years...
I find the $25.00 for the cuts to be a steal of a deal, Matt is Super Skilled and comes from a Family of Hair people, his own Father comes from and still works in the trade.
I am the most thrilled to give this 5 out of 5, and though it is rare I give a perfect review, My experience there was just that... Perfect!
PS: I added some pics, the place is awesome!
