Been taking my son here for over a year, too many cancelations of appointments and I'm finally done. Ownership should care more about this as it gives a bad name to the establishment. I presume the barbers are "independent contractors". Still looks bad. If this were a women's salon, woulda been out of business by now with the cancelations & no-shows. No consideration barbers who always got "something" going on or are "sick" and don't contact their clients or if the do its half an hour AFTER the appointment.

(No, I am not a Marine, but I do have the utmost respect for the Corps and all branches of the Armed Forces.....but I digress). I was referred to the West Napoleon Barber Shop by a coworker (thanks HJK), but he actually referred to the shop as Joe "da" barber. Upon entering the shop and immediately time warping several decades to the past, it became apparent as to why he referred to this shop as Joe "da" barber. I know the sign over the front door states they are barber stylists, but this place screams old school barber shop. And any who knows me, knows that I am very nostalgic and love "old school" businesses. This shop is very small and there are 8-10 chairs against the left wall for waiting customers. The shop is staffed by three barbers and each barber has a wooden sign hanging on their mirror with their names on the sign. In chair # 1 closest to the door was Joe, but his sign read "Joe da barber". Chair # 2 was for Mel and chair # 3 was for Rick. Upon my arrival, all 3 were cutting hair and 2 customers were waiting on Mel & Rick. Therefore, as soon as Joe was done, he invited me to sit in his chair. Joe has been cutting hair in this shop in the chair #1 slot for 45 years. Forty five years at the same job says a lot about a person, and it obvious that Joe likes to cut hair and like most barbers, he also likes a good conversation. He is a master at a "high & tight" and gave me a cut that will definitely bring me back to his shop. All 3 barbers have the old time hot shaving cream dispenser, and Joe cleaned up around my ears and my neck with the hot lather and scalpel sharp straight razor. Call me nostalgic (again), but there's no cleaner shave than a straight razor shave. The West Napoleon Barber Shop is definitely dated in its decor. But no one, including me, is coming here for eye candy. This place is all about a great cut at a great price. Speaking of the price, a haircut here, including the hot lather straight razor cleanup is only $7.00. Yeah, I'll say it agin. A haircut here is only $7.00, and I don't know of any place in the city or entire metro are that offers a $7.00 haircut. Needless to say, these guys probably all make pretty good tips, as no one is going to strike it rich giving $7.00 haircuts. I for one believe in giving a good gratuity for a job well done. Lastly, like most true barber shops, this place is closed on Sundays and Mondays. But here's a kicker for you. If you get up early for work and want a haircut before you go to work, Joe opens up at 4:40 AM on most days and I think this definitely puts him in a class of his own.

I never really know how to accurately describe how I want my hair cut, so when I tell the lady at super cuts or wherever that I just want a regular haircut, for some reason, they always get offended. Here, it's different. I come in, I sit down and Russell automatically just gives me a regular haircut. I used to go to a hair-stylists about thrice a year, now I feel comfortable enough to go about once a month or so. Alot of the the people who grew up in the neighborhood still come by from all over to get their haircut and catch up on old times while asking about former neighbors. In this way, Russell acts as a sort of nexus for a lost community. What I'm trying to say is that this barbershop is like facebook for old people. Also, Russell has at least 3 old-timey western glamour shots of himself in the shop as well as a large portrait of an owl on display. Also, when Russell tells a story, he'll usually describe to you the outfit he was wearing when the story took place in exact detail. He does it so fast, though, that you don't even notice. Kinda weird, huh? Basically, if you're looking for a decent haircut from someone who knows what he's doing at an affordable price, I couldn't recommend a better place.
