| - Looking for a new place to get my hair cut, I decided to try Mister after a couple of friends recommended it to me. I was not disappointed.
Probably the only negative criticism I could level at this place is that if you need a cut on the quick, they may not be able to accommodate you. You'll definitely want to call ahead to secure a time slot on the weekend; I called toward the beginning of the weekday, looking for a Saturday or Sunday appointment, only to find that they were already booked solid. I ended up with an appointment for the following weekend.
The overall experience was quite pleasant. They lady at the front desk was gracious, and offered me a drink while I waited. My appointment was in the morning, so coffee and other beverages were offered rather than the beer that is apparently available later in the day. Everyone working there was quite friendly, chatty with their customers, but even more chatty with each other while they worked. There was a friendly, casual vibe that made the affair more relaxing than the experiences I've had in chain haircut establishments.
I asked for a basic, no-frills "just make it shorter" haircut, that wouldn't require any product to maintain, and that is exactly what I received. I've gotten compliments on the cut. In no way, shape or form did I test the upper limits of my stylist's craft, but it is nice to see that you don't need to be trying out for a boy-band to make this place worth your while. The cost for a basic trim was $15 (not including tip). Definitely worth it. I will be coming back.
