I just moved Downtown, so I needed to find a new barber. Nevermind the fact that I hadn’t had a haircut in eight months because a) Halloween dictated it, and then b) my original stylist moved back to KC and I was basically pouting via my refusal to get my hair cut again until now. But, after some Yelp research (and going by who was within walking distance), this is where I decided to try.
Super greatness.
A wonderful, tiny little shop with a lived-in feel — the way things should be in a downtown. The girl doing my hair spent some serious TLC on me, tending to the details, double passing over areas, the warm cream and straight-edge on my neck, and just overall doing a great job. In the end it was just $16, which makes it easy to hand over a crisp $20 bill and be all paid up.
I really liked it, and I think I’ve found my new barber shop 🙂
Downtown Barber Shop is located at 216 N. Central Ave. in the Downtown District — 602.253.7474
The DPJ Yelper of the Week offers honest insight on a Downtown business to help you explore your core. DPJ hopes that by partnering with Yelp to spread the good word about well-loved Downtown spots, you’ll spread your patronage and support local business.
Yelp is a social networking and local search engine that provides the reviews of places and things that matter to you. Simply log in, pick a place and queue up your inner critic. You can write a beaming review of your favorite gelato spot, or a scathing portrayal of that rental car facility you had to use after that curb came out of nowhere. Yelp’s reviews are at once honest, uncensored, wildly hilarious and true. Heck, the site must be doing something right — it had 26 million viewers just last month!
