I'm spending some time in the Danby/Manchester area and seriously needed professional assistance with my fringe (bangs). I looked up the salon next door to Phil's but the only stylist there that day (early Monday afternoon) was busy with a client and didn't take walk-ins.
I had seen the sign for Phil's Barber Shop earlier in the week (conveniently located within walking distance to Walgreen's) but I wasn't too keen on waltzing into a barber shop and asking for a bang trim vs. a shave.
However, since I couldn't get what I was looking for at the first salon next door, I noticed the two chairs in Phil's were unoccupied and saw a nice lady who's name I learned is "Luz" awaiting my arrival as if I had actually made an appointment. I had to walk in and ask if she could fix my fringe.
Luz was very professional and is an excellent listener - which is highly important for personal services such as this - especially the first time around with a new client/stylist or "barber". Luz did exactly what I was hoping she would/could do to clean up the mess I had made by cutting my own bangs and she definitely knew what she was doing; so kind and knowledgeable.
I encourage you to visit Phil's even if you're not accustomed to having your hair cut by a "barber" - you won't be sorry.
And be sure to ask for Luz! You'll be glad you did. Tell her Christi sent you ;.) read more
