Argentina, Buenos Aires: Salon Berlin ★★★★★
Located in Humboldt 1411 (y niceto vega), Hollywood Palermo, Salon Berlin is a men’s barbershop by day, and hipster bar by night. Simply by walking in, I knew I was in the right place. The fit out was super cool and the staff looked the part. The barman/receptionist was a laid back English-speaking dude who enjoyed a laugh at my unfortunate Kim Jong-un lookalike haircut, and the barbers had a clear high level of pride in their craft (something that was severely lacking from the woman that butchered my hair three days before). Created in 1999 with a unique concept which unites, hairdresser / barber, who rescues today traditional methods shaving, classic cuts and bar service, creating an ideal environment for a stop every afternoon and settle into the bar, camping tables in the sidewalk or in the familiar terrace.

Australia, NSW, Ettalong: Errol's Barbershop ★★★★★
Located 60 miles/100kms from Sydney in a beach and holiday resort, opposite Ettalong Memorial Club. Open weekdays 8am to 5pm : Saturday 8am to 12 Noon. An added bonus is Earl will make house calls.
Errol Baker the Barber is a young family man. It's not unusual to see his small children around. He is personally redecorating his shop in the style, so he says, of an olde worlde Australian Sheep Sheering Shed. The shop is also a show-and-sales-room for angling gear. If you're into fish tales at haircut time, Errol is your expert. He is Craftsman of the Clippers, Superman of the Scissors, skilled in all kinds of men's hairstyles. With a Producer associate he is in the process of designing, photographing and compiling a Cuts Catalogue, Styles Directory, and Tonsurial Tutorial Videos. Not only will this be a collection of specially prepared popular and classic haircuts, but it will include up-to-the-minute trends, and some on the wild side, mohawks, geometrics through to shaved; all cuttable on request. Errol is one of the few who still does a super smooth head shave; freshly whipped up shaving cream in an old fashioned shaving mug, natural soft bristle brush, straight 'cutthroat' razor; the lot. And then he finishes off with Ice Shampoo. Wow! "To be, or not to be?" He's trying to talk himself into the BALD look. This Barbershop is not expensive - cheaper than most. Errol the Barber is reinventing his salon, and will reinvent a great haircut for you from the Cuts Catalogue or your own Custom Coiffeur! Updated: 07-NOV-1998

CA, Costa Mesa: Donnie Hawleywood's Traditional Barbershop ★★★★★
Location: 1806 Newport Blvd, phone: 949-631-2662
From their web site: "Remember waaaay back when in the good ol' days when you could go down to the local barber shop, get a straight razor shave, a nice tight haircut and enjoy the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere of a real men's sanctuary? Well guess what? It's back and it's called Donnie Hawleywood's Traditional Barber shop!
"Located in an antique of a building in Costa Mesa, Calif., Hawleywood's feels like stepping into a time warp back to '40's Chicago. From the 0L' style two- tone brown floor to the sand colored walls heavily decorated with photos of friends and clients with names like James Intveld, Eddie Nichols of Royal Crown Revue, Big Sandy and Lee Rocker to name a few. Let's not forget motorcycle hero Chopper Dave!
"Upon entering this men's sanctuary you'll see customers relaxing in vintage waiting chairs all the while cruisin' through another great issue of The Horse BackStreet Choppers and listening to some great music on the Hi-Fi. One thing you won't see at Hawleywood's is women. You all know how distracting a woman can be and who wants a straight razor shave with a buxom blonde in the joint?
"So leave yer' 0L' lady at home because you might need to talk about her. And besides, no one ever looks cool in the middle of a hair cut. Donnie has been mastering this vanishing trade for more than ten years, but has been cutting hair for friends and relatives forever. Open just over four years ago, Hawleywood's attracts people from all walks of life from tattooed greasers to businessmen and everyone in between. No quick haircuts here brother, each cut lasts at least 45 minutes and you get all the bells and whistles. After the hot face towel and a precise straight razor shave of your neck and face you'll get the most perfect taper you've ever seen, and Donnie will style you up with his own brand of pomade called "Layrite." This is the best pomade ever, it holds like wax and washes out like gel! Amazing! Next comes the old style barbershop neck massage machine that will knock your socks off! Be sure and pick up Donnie's after-shave called Hawleywood's #9. Smell like you just left the barber's chair whenever you want." Updated: 25-MAY-2015

She has taken me from a businessman's cut to past shoulder length ensuring the color looks surfer natural, what would you expect in from a Surf City salon. Not only does Chrissa take care of long hair, she can give you a high and tight like you've never had before! If you have kinky or curly hair, Chrissa can take care of that for you too.

CA, Long Beach: J.W. Goodson's ★★★★★

The salon also offers facials, tanning beds, pedicures, and more. Reviewed by: MensHair.org
Here is another review for J.W. Goodson's.
I was all stressed out at work, so I took the day off and slept in. I decided I needed some pampering, so I called my stylist Walter Farfan at J.W. Goodson's in Long Beach, CA. Although my email address is "crewcut111" I have actually been growing my hair for the past 3 years. It has gone past my shoulders and my goal is to have my hair touch my elbows without raising my arms. Since it was a weekday, Walter was able to take me immediately. Since I have salt/pepper hair, he said he had a good hair treatment that he would like to try on me. He brought out a container with some liquid in it, and began painting my hair with a brush. He said it would protect my hair and make it shiny. Of course I was in heaven. He kept my long hair pinned up on my head so he could work on one section at a time. After my head was saturated with the stuff, he put a cap on and led me to a dryer where I sat enjoying the experience while the treatment penetrated my hair. It was totally unexpected and I didn't want it to end. After the treatment he shampooed me, then gave me a haircut - I told him to keep it as long as possible. Then he blow dryed me for the longest time, pulling on my long hair over and over with the brush. Finally he used a flat iron to make my hair very straight. Actually my hair doesn't need too much straightening, since it is mostly straight anyway, but how could I complain - I was having so much fun he could have done it all day. I left with my hair flowing just like on a TV commercial. I maintain my 5 scissors rating, definitely! Reviewed by: crewcut111@yahoo.com Updated: 25-MAY-2015

CA, Solana Beach: Solana Beach Barber Shop ★★★★★
Member Steve (colt68@earthlink.net) reports: located at 135 South Hwy 101. If you are coming up from San Diego, take the Lomos Santa Fe exit and turn left on Hwy 101 and it's on the right side of the Hwy. The shop was crowded even though it was a Wednesday afternoon around 3pm. It looked like an old fashioned shop. There were six barbers all of whom were giving fairly short cuts. I already had a #1 on top with a #3 bumper and somewhat grown out #00 on sides and back. I asked for a taper up to the crown. The barber took his time and did a great job. He finished the cut with a lathered shave around the ears and at the nape. He charged $12 which isn't all that bad for a resort community. On a scale of 1-10 this was a 10. Hope this helps anyone in the San Diego area. Updated: 27-NOV-2003
CA, Walnut Creek: Maureene's Barbering for Men ★★★★☆
1339 Pine Street #C, phone: (925) 934-2002 Member Mike reports: This a very traditional barbershop setting with vintage furnishings (maybe early 60's). It is a one barber shop with Maureene doing all the cutting. I had been growing my hair out so it was a bit shaggy when I asked her to neaten it up a bit. She took off a lot more than I expected, but the haircut was great (a medium businessman's). She uses a traditional clippers over comb technique with the Oster 76's and is not shy about cutting with them. I dropped a hint about my Summer flattop coming soon and she said, enthusiastically, she loves to do them. If you like a ladies touch this is a great place! Updated: 13-MAY-2003

IL, Chicago: Alfred's Antiques
1958 West Superior Street, phone: (312) 850-4842. [Newsclip from 'Best of Chicago' issue of NewCity weekly 28-SEP-00, p. 56; www.newcity.com. Submitted by Mens Hair member ShortSuave] Hair care and used furniture, too. At this messy, dark and dusty Ukrainian Village combo establishment, Alfred cuts hair while his wife pushes choice hunks of junk onto the sidewalk for display. Some days, a sweating Coors Light can sits next to Alfred's sink; when the Coors Light is not there, the haircuts are military short. Barbershop philosophy flows freely. "Every day here is different," says the 55-year-old Alfred in response to a question about the rapidly gentrifying neighborhood that will likely eventually put him out of business (his building is already for sale). "But then, I change, too. I can feel myself changing every day." No matter: This third-rate antique shop offers a first-rate haircut that includes the added benefits of after-shave lotion, shaving cream and a straight razor, all in about thirty minutes. Cost: $8, $10 or $12, plus an enthusiastic $5 tip. Updated: 04-OCT-2000
IL, Chicago: Carmie's Crown Barbershop ★★★☆☆
200 East Randolph Street, (312) 856-5322. I've long been a fan of old-school Richard J. Daley-era Chicago. It was likeMad Men, but with tough guys. The great thing is that there are so many ways you can still experience it.
Carmie's Crown is a place where men go to get their hair cut. A barbershop the way they were meant to be. Fluorescent lights. Linoleum. Hair is cut with scissors, not clippers. Your neck will be shorn with a straight razor sharpened against a leather strap.
The real entertainment comes from the owner, Carmine, who has been in this location in the tunnels under the Aon Center since the building went up. Carmine will ask you how you want your hair, but that's just a formality. He will do what he wants and bicker with you about it. Since you can't win, enjoy the banter; he's been having this argument for 40 years. The dance ends when he points out that he's been cutting hair longer than you've been alive, so he knows what he's doing. The crazy part is that he's right.

IL, Chicago: Timeout at Shannon's Barbershop
689 North Milwaukee, phone: (312) 997-9909 From Best of Chicago 2002 issue - 26SEP02 Maybe it's the location. Maybe it's the always-clean decor. Maybe it's the fact that they don't take walk-ins (unheard of for barbershops). Or maybe it's the fact that the Wall Street Journal recognized this Chicago hotbed before the Sun-Times or the Tribune, but there is not a barbershop in the city (in the country for that matter) comparable to the basketball hall-of-fame called Timeout at Shannon's.
Unlike the typical in-the-'hood, black-fade givers that have become the black man's country club over several generations, Timeout at Shannon's is what other shops need to become when they grow up. NBA-styled lockers and chairs, old classic games on heavy rotation playing behind the backdrop of the latest beats by Dr. Dre or Kanye West, provide the backdrop for conversations ranging and escalating from Shaq's big toe to Biggie's involvement in Tupac's murder to the priests in the Catholic Church.
Several companies (including Nike and Andi) have expressed interest in buying (or becoming partners in) the shop from owner Shannon Jones. But he refuses to sell. Corporations don't create legacies, people do. Updated: 26-SEP-2002

The following is an interview with Bernie Feldberg owner, which ran in the Chicago Tribune, Jobs Section, April 16, 2000
You are a traditional barber and not a stylist. Why? Well, back when I started, you either went to barber school or beauty school. When I got out of high school, I said, "I don't like to work with hair spray." So I went to barber school. There are only a couple of barber schools left today in the Chicago area. Back in the old days, there were a lot of barber schools on Madison Street -- our clients were the bums from Madison Street. I went to Modern Barber college. I went for 12 months. At that time yo had to put in 1,200 hours in school. Then, you took a test to get your license. You had to give a haircut and a shave in front of different people who worked for the state. You also had to take a written test about the body and diseases of the scalp.
No one is going into barbering today because it is not worth it. We are a dying breed. When my two partners here, Dave and Vince, retire, we'll close the shop and that will be it. In 10 years I don't think there will be any traditional barber shops anymore.
What happened to the barber business? In the 1960s during the Beatles era no one wanted haircuts anymore. I even started to do some styling when I was at Sid's. I'd be in the back with the hair dryer and hair spray and they called me "Fabulous Bernardo." The styling really got big a few years later. People had longer hair and most of the barbers left the profession, including myself. I went into the carpet and tile business for the next 25 years. When I retired from that a few years ago, my wife said, "Why don't you go back to cutting hair?"
Do you perform both shaves and haircuts? We are still some of the only barbers who shave (as part of a haircut). We put hot lather around the ears and the back of the neck. Most barbers use electric clippers around the ears. Hardly anyone comes in for a regular shave. Since we don't want to fool around with anything that might have to do with blood, we use injector blades. I can then throw the blade out and put a new one in.
My partners and I can do things that stylists can't do. We can do razor cuts. We can even singe the hair with a wick to get rid of split ends.
What's the best thing about the job? The best thing is that there is no pressure. We don't take any appointments, we just take walk-ins. And, what is the difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut? Just two weeks. Also, you meet people from all walks of life. We have our own little camaraderie. We talk about camping and fishing. About half of our customers are retired. For the little kids, we talk about what they want to do and about how it is important to stay in school.

IL, Oak Park: Lester's Barbershop & Beauty Salon ★★☆☆☆
6340 Roosevelt Road, phone: 708-386-9700. Formally Walter's Barbershop. Walter sold the business to Lester - one of the barbers who has worked with Walter for years. Lester completely remodeled the shop, adding a Beauty Salon. He now has new barber/stylists (men and women) who he's been training in the art of Barbering. The new barber/stylists still use clippers. I kinda miss the traditional barbershop look that this shop once had, but I guess that's progress. The addition of the Beauty Shop is an attempt to be more UNISEX.

All caped up after he mowed down my sides and back, he spun me around and I got to see the top go down!. Yes, what a feeling. I asked if he would razor shave the sides and back and he does. I haven't got goose bumps in such a long time. It was kind of cool out that day and the feeling of the hot lather was great. Sides, back and even landing strip shaved nice and smooth.
He uses the clipper with the vac attached. I did miss seeing my hair fall upon the cape, but the vac made it cool and sent the first wave of goose bumps. Man, what a feeling!!!
I would HIGHLY recommend to all those around here go give Mike a try. You will not be disappointed. And if there are any H-N-T buds around here that want a bud to go with, let me know. I am ready to go back anytime. Reviewed by: Lthrwolfe@yahoo.com Updated: 08-SEP-2005
