Sunday 6/24/12

Sunday 6/24/12 is the June edition of our Hangover Shave Sundays events here at the shop. 10am - 3pm, first come first served, three barbers to keep the shop moving, etc. $20 gets you a haircut OR a hot towel straight razor shave, world famous MANbQUE burger cooked right outside the shop, and a ice cold pint of locally made Half Acre beer to wash it all down. Try and get that deal at supercuts or a stuck up "Male Salon".  Pics from previous HangOver Shave events can be seen @ joesbarbershopchicago.com/photos

Thanks to all who came out to see us/say hi/get a cut @ The Vintage Bazaar yesterday. Pics and movie from the day will be posted this week so keep a look out. Next bazaar at The Aragon is scheduled for Sunday July 8th...

The "Mobile Joe's" pop up shop is coming to The Vintage Bazaar Sunday 6/10/12

 

Our pop-up "Mobile Joe's" barbershop will be doing signature/classic cuts at the Vintage Bazaar's on 6/10, 7/8, 8/12 & 9/9. So now you can bring your woman to the bazaar, then stop by the shop and hangout, shoot the crap, get cleaned up, all while earning brownie points. 

Hair not doing what ya want it too ?

Your 1st problem is that it might not be cut right. Having the hair cut to the way you actually wear it is the #1 issue guys have with their hair. If you wear your hair in say a traditional pompadour, then it should be cut in that style. The more the cut itself is catered to the style, the easier it will be for the customer to style his own hair on a daily basis..

2nd Issue we come across is that people aren't using the correct product for their desired style. Johnny Cash and Elvis's hair wasn't natural people ! They had TONS of grease in their hair to get those trademark styles. So do yourself a favor and get some water based pomade, don't be afraid to glob it in, and pickup yourself a nice simple comb. The days of "combing" your hair with your fingers were over the day you got out of college. Both Layrite and Suavecito brand pomade are both available in the shop and will get you looking your dapper best while still washing out clean in the shower...
