re: Good barber shops in New Orlenas?

Ah damn

Think mine charges $55 for a cut, straight edge shave. Plus I typically drink about 2 glasses of whiskey or gin and tonic

Think it's $40 without the straight edge cocktails still included

There's a place like Aidan Gill on Hampson street uptown right off Maple. Cheaper than AG and former AG employees who split off. They just changed the name to something I'm unsure of but you should be able to look it up.

Will recommend as well. Usually can get an appointment same week if you have an open schedule.

If you go to the shop on Oak, wait for Ed, don't let Ed's wife cut your hair. Now, if Bud is in there, that'll be a great experience. Bud is the original owner of the shop. He's a WWII veteran, and an old Navy man. He'll take about 45 minutes to cut your hair and talk your ear off. The cut won't be that bad, but he's a living legend. (If he's still alive.)

Go to pauls place on airline. Right across from zephyr field. Make sure you have time because you will be in the chair for at least 40 mins. Place has been there since the 50's

$12 for a cut and &12 for a shave. You will get a straight razor around the neck line every time.

If your black, don't go. They don't know how to cut black people hair (I've heard them tell a black walk in before)

It's 2 old men, be sure to wait for perry

You can thank me later

Yep. They have another guy who does a solid job if Ed is stacked up.

Yes he is. I think he is about 94. He can't hear and likes to talk so it does take a lot longer to get a cut.



Ed has really helped rebuild the client base so the place can be a bit packed when they are open. For some inexplicable reason they decided to start closing on Saturday.

Francis, he's a Vietnamese guy on Poydras Street who includes a free 45 minute rant on Obama, Pope Francis, and other communists with every $20 haircut. Well worth the price of admission.

I think Nathan is still at Magazine. He answered the phone when I called a few days ago.

I will second Francis although I will add all inclusive travel or cruise pricing to the preferred discussion topics

Golden Shears off Magazine ain't bad. $14 a trim.
