Great old-school barber shop. No appointment needed, just walk in. I've been going there for years. They currently have 5 real barbers (3 men, 2 women) — I've seen at least two at any visit, so wait time is minimal. Be specific and you can get exactly what you want from any of them. They cut hair the way it is supposed to be cut — with scissors and comb, not razor with length attachments (like the franchise places do) — so they pay attention to the way your hair lies, instead of notes the last person left for them. No up-charging with shampooing and pseudo massages, but you can get an old-fashioned straight-razor shave (just the neck, or the whole face), if you like. Very reasonable pricing.

Do not go to this barber. He shaved the sides of my head so high, that I had to come home and shave the top off just to make it look even. I am now practically bald.
