Daniel
“Eight years with Walt in Logan Square. I moved to Evanston and I still take the train down every three weeks. That should tell you enough.”
Chris
“Booked the last chair at 8:15 after a terrible day. Hot towel, no small talk unless I wanted it, best fade I've had in years.”
Kenji
“Nadia actually listened when I said I wanted it to grow out well, not just look good on day one. Six weeks later it still sits right.”
Omar
“The razor line-up on my beard is the reason my wife lets me keep the beard. Mateo is an artist and the shop smells incredible.”
Gerald
“Clean, calm and they remember how I like my sideburns. The West Loop room with the old beams is a pleasure to sit in.”
Liam
“First proper barbershop I've been to. They showed me the back in a hand mirror and I said wow out loud. Booked the next one in the app on the way out.”
