A hot July day with the family and I noticed this place - a hole in the wall on a side street with…read morea barber's pole twirling outside. I needed a haircut so I decided to step inside, where I found a typical barbershop, with a completely atypical barber. He looked like an ex-Gunny sergeant, and he was finishing off a high and tight for a young serviceman - perfect I thought. 20 minutes later I had the best haircut I've gotten in probably 25 years. #3 on the sides, tapered and off the ears, blocked in back, top to match and the bonus - he used a real straight razor to clean up my neck. Heaven. So I live in San Francisco, and I can tell you when I come back out to the Capitol District I'll make it my business to need a haircut, and to come here - it's worth flying 2500 miles to get my hair cut here.

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.

The place reminded me of an old school barbershop like the old days. Meagan asked me how I wanted my hair done, I gave her a few points and she did a fantastic job. I would recommend Meagan and Vinny's. The place is what we need back in other neighborhoods.

Recently, I went to True Cuts and was very upset with my haircut. I had asked the barber for what I…read morehad gotten last time, and then he said yes. I had let him know that I wanted NOTHING cut off the top of my hair because im trying to let it all grow out. The barber understood and then started doing my hair. After my haircut was over he had to let me know that he cut the back of my hair because it would look like a mushroom. I was a bit upset with this because this entire haircut was an undercut and none of my actually hair was going to be cut, just the fade. Once I got home, I took a shower and realized that he had actually cut off a lot of the sides of the hair. I'm highly disappointed because almost every other time I've gone there its been amazing, but when you don't just listen to what you're supposed to and do your job is upsetting. I do really like going here, but in the future i want to keep my hair nice and long and not have it cut. Thank you!

Finally decided it's time to give it up. A barber shop does not get any better than Desmond (the guy I ask for) or Scott. You get small town gossip and careful, leisurely attention to your hair including warm shave cream and a razor trim at the end. The ladies pay $50 for this kind of treatment (and probably less salty commentary from the town elders and wise guys who wander in and out). We get it for $15 plus your generous tip. Don't expect to walk in and plop down without an appointment, however. The online reservation system is easy. Then just be sure you keep that appointment.
