| - I've been to Ergys twice now, and have my third appt. for a men's cut tomorrow. Yes, you should assume that since I'm going back, and that I've given the place 5 stars, that my review will be positive. But you should continue reading, because my situation is a bit unique, and the fact that Ergys has been able to have me looking my best is a huge testament to his talents as a stylist.
My first time going to him was several years ago - for my wedding haircut. I decided that my regular guy just wasn't up to the task, and after reading all the reviews online about this place, I decided to take a chance on them. So glad I did - the cut was perfection. Probably the best cut I've ever had. I actually booked my appointment two weeks in advance of my wedding, because in my experience 1-2 weeks after my cut, after things had a chance to grow in just a bit, was when I looked my best. Plus, I was a bit nervous about going to a new place, and I figured that if I got completely butchered at least there would be a buffer period to let things grow back in, maybe have someone else fix the mess. But in the end, all my worry was for naught: the cut was so perfect that I could have just driven straight to my wedding right then and there. And more impressive still: two weeks later, it still looked like perfection.
Despite how good the wedding cut had been, it was actually two years before I went and saw Ergys again. Truthfully, it was the price that kept me away: $55 for a men's cut is pretty steep, and I'm not really the type that heads for $55 haircuts every week. But there's just no denying that this is one of those times where you get what you pay for.
The reason I decided to go back - and the reason he's my guy from now on - is because I've actually recently been diagnosed with an odd autoimmune disorder that attacks the hair follicles. No other symptoms, no long-term consequences, nothing dangerous...but my immune system has decided that it doesn't like my hair. And so I now get these unpredictable loonie sized patches of hair loss, here, there, anywhere. Go to sleep one night, got all your hair. Wake up the next morning, there's a loonie sized bald patch in the middle of my head. A bit traumatizing, I'm sure you can imagine. But the bottom line is that I immediately decided that the only guy capable of keeping me looking my best was Ergys. And I was right: when I went to him for my cut, I had a loonie sized bald patch above my left ear, another slightly smaller patch in the back on the right, and a pretty large bald patch that was creeping up on my neckline in the back. And somehow, miraculously, Ergys was able to sit me down in his chair, talk about cutting a bit this way, a bit that way, longer here, shorter there, maybe leave things a bit "loose"....and after all was said and done with his best Edward Scissorhands impression, I came out looking a million bucks again. Could have gotten married all over again.
Tomorrow will be my third visit to Ergys. No new loonie spots, luckily, but the existing ones haven't gone away yet either. But I'm not worried: Ergys is a master.
