My hair is important but not so much that i worry about it. If I get a bad haircut, no big deal. It always grows back. That's why I go to chain barbers. And I found a decent one. Then....a buddy of mine recommended Dapper Dan's.
It is the best haircut I've had in ages. His lines are super clean, my cut is even throughout, without a bunch of stray hairs or loppy cuts. Something i regularly put up with at any one of the other places I was going to.
Dan's studio is a one person affair. That's why he can spend so much time giving you a great cut and style. He's trained and worked all over the place, so he has substantial experience with all hair textures, he can cut an expert flat top, shave skin fades, and do both old school and modern hair cuts. If you've ever had a flat top, you know it's not as simple as it seems.
The 100 year old barber chair and his careful attention to detail make the experience all the more worthwhile. It's great that he takes appointments only, eliminating the need to walk in and wait 30 minutes like other places.
He also does straight razor shaves. His hand is gently and he uses plenty of hot and cold towels and ointments to leave your skin feeling smooth and refreshed.
The best cut you can get. And all this for a supremely reasonable price!
