Its pulse doesn't shake the shopping centers or the offices or the multitudes they carry. It honors no arrhythmia before the Capitol or the architecture that has grown around it. Because it's often the case that the biggest machine lives and dies not by its most imposing part, but by the smallest pin in its center. It's easy to miss Patsy's Barber Shop if you're weaving through the traffic of State and Pearl. You have to know to take the right onto Howard Street and go slowly enough not to miss the white neon tubing that brightens the shop and casts just enough of its glow onto the sidewalk to let you see the barbers ply their trade. Patsy's opened in 1930 at the cusp of the Great Depression, when a proper haircut was a man's resume and the newspaper on the empty seat was the employment office. It was a family business, like many that had dotted the downtown and further south to the neighborhoods that would eventually be sacrificed to Nelson Rockefeller's sense of grandeur. William "Tragedy" Yager now presides over the memories absorbed into the mirrors and the padded chairs. Since 2006, he's followed in the footsteps of his great grandfather, a man who likely opened up shop as he always did on the day Japanese planes set off for infamy. And anyone who's had a seat in one of his chairs and a hot towel on their face knows that Tragedy didn't just inherit a trade; he inherited a love and a duty to everyone that crosses the threshold. A large man with a long, thick beard and a tapestry of tattoos lining both temples, he wouldn't strike you as a man you would want to meet in a dark alley. But again, the seat, the hot towel, two minutes in conversation, and you'll realize that he's exactly the man you would want to meet in a dark alley if your car broke down, if you were cold, hungry and scared, if everybody passed you by. Because there are certain things you can expect from those possessed of the instinct of leadership. But what you may not expect is that sometimes, the places where matters are truly decided accept walk-ins. Patsy's Barber Shop has two locations, 3 Howard Street in downtown Albany and Room 126 on the Concourse Level. Call for an appointment and check for hours. And be sure to patronize the many barbers Tragedy has trained personally.

I can't say enough great things about Penny Williams & her hair salon…read more Penny's been doing my extensions for years now, and I can't imagine letting anyone else even touch my hair! As soon as you walk in you feel the creative ambiance. The atmosphere and decor of the salon is inspiring within itself. Above all, it's the expertise, and genuine passion that makes Penny and her salon so brilliant. I naturally have short, curly and very challenging hair. Penny is literally able to transform my hair with extensions. The way she is able to blend my own hair with extension hair is simply amazing. Penny is a master stylist & it's very apparent in her work. Penny's passion for her business is another reason she's a notch above the rest. She genuinely cares about her clients and their satisfaction. I once got a cut I wasn't thrilled with-Penny took the time to rearrange her schedule and fit me in on one of her days off to ensure I was happy. She goes above and beyond and I can't imagine being with anyone else!
