A gentleman come to me, introduce himself and bring me to the famous Barber Chair. There I sat for one hours and 1/2. you probably asking yourself in what conditions was I. Well I had not shaved for two days. I could not been that bad.He told me that he will trimmed my bear with a trimmer . He then apply a hot shaving cream to my face, lefted for a couple of minutes. he then applied a hot towel to my face. Very soothing. He then proceed to apply another layer of hot shaving cream an started shaving. I could not understand by the feel of it , what instrument or tool he was using. I felt he was shaving one air at a time. No long strokes, very tiny movement. The all time I thought I woul open my eyes and I would look at myself different. The all time I had my eyes close,by face would be smooth, clean shaven with no razor cut and so on. Well the time came and when I look in the mirror I was in shock. First I thought that my mirror was like the one that make your face ten time bigger. Well I was again wrong . It was a normal mirror and my face was not clean shaven. I look like I had that bear for one day. I had spots, underneat my chin that were completely shavem, and parts that were just trimmed. The whole experience was shoking. I do not care about how much I paid. I was expecting more service oriented employees, more engaging and after all a clean shave. Unfortunately I could not recommend this place for a shave to anyone. I cannot critique the hair stylist or the owner. I did not meet them and I also did not experience the hair cut. I did however experienced the hot shave. I just wanted to share my experience with all of you. After all is called Barber Lounge.

Pros: Very spacious, nice music,lofty and airy

Cons: Terrible shave

I'm the owner of the barber lounge. I'm very sorry you had a bad experience with us. We are a new business and are still working out the kinks with our shave. We have recently had a shift in our staff and we are working on perfecting our service. I'd certainly treat you to another service for the same price to make up for your bad shave. Thanks, Greg Griffin
