I'm standing right in front of you??? I don't think they even see the contradiction: It does everything to make you FEEL like its a "old fashioned barbershop experience" yet they can't even tell you if you can have an appt when you walk in. Keep in mind, its not because it was busy, it was because....well. So today, i thought i'd go back, give it a try again. But when i called, on a Monday, to make an appt, i got some kind of run around, they now don't have my info, can't remember who I was, i don't have a "full and complete profile" and could I go on line and enter my credit card info to book an appt? The odd thing is, I work just a few blocks, and I could walk there, and it COULD be my regular barbershop, I was hoping to find an old barbershop. But for some reason, they just seem to mix high tech and a high stress and unwieldy appt process and think that it will "fit in" with the whole "Old fashioned" theme. But of course, it just doesn't. Sadly, I thought the concept and branding was so nice they could export it and open even more, but now i see what's missing. It looks like an old fashioned barbershop, but isn't.

    My grievances: 1) No…read moreconsideration at all for how I wanted my hair cut. I sat down in that chair and this guy didn't even ask me how I would like my hair. He observed and felt through my hair for a few minutes and then declared 'I know what we're going to do.' Hardly even told me what it would be like. Unfortunately I trusted the process. 2) This turned out to be both the most expensive haircut, and the lowest-quality haircut that I have ever received. I was very unhappy with the way it turned out... It will take a few months to grow it back out again enough to do the style I want. That being said, the atmosphere was really nice and my barber was really great to talk to. We had a great chat and he was super cool. So that was the upside. Would not recommend. Better to go somewhere where they will do the cut that YOU want.

Thankfully, the VSC staff were honest with me and did not just take my money for a transplant procedure that would likely have failed. Afterwards, I researched Facial Micropigmentation (FMP), a variant of Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), and I found Nico, who did an amazing job on my face. I've attached some photos to show the work he did. I am very pleased with the results; I finally have the bearded look I've been wanting for years!!! I cannot say enough good things about Nico's work. He is a credit to his profession, and I highly recommend his services!

    Jacks is a traditional men's barbershop located within the historic Davidsons Clothing for Men…read morestore in Downtown Roanoke, Virginia. Specializing in classic grooming services, Jacks offers expertly crafted manicure and pedicure services, among others, in a welcoming. friendly, and relaxing environment. After being awarded the Triad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last year, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, I decided that it would be appropriate this year to go back to this restaurant and write a follow-up review, since my initial review was one of my reviews that contributed to me obtaining this highly esteemed Award. Today, after having made an appointment for 2:00pm, I revisited Jacks, and since my birthday is slowly approaching, I decided to treat myself to what they call in Jacks: "The Flush Signature Package. This package included a Classic Cut, with a deep cleansing shampoo, scalp and neck massage, precision haircut and style and aroma therapy hot towels. This was followed by the Executive Hand Detail which included a deluxe manicure that also included an exfoliating scrub and a warm paraffin wax dip. And last but not least, I received the Foot Treatment. Here my nails were trimmed, I had the removal of dead skin and I received a foot massage that promoted good circulation! During all this process I was treated like royalty. When I arrived they offered me a non-alcoholic drink. I had an iced Coca-Cola, comfortably seated and waiting to be called. When my stylist was ready, she came down to get me. Then we went to the second floor. I chose to go using the elevator rather than the long stairs. Once there I received the treatment previously described. Then my Manicurist / Pedicure continued doing the other things mention after once again offering me another non-alcoholic drink. What an amazing experience. When I was finished may hands and my legs felt so good from all the massages and treatments received. If you have an opportunity of going there I would highly recommend you do. You will feel like new again. Having these treatments done really does make a difference. I'm so glad I found this place.

Walk-ins are welcome but it seems appointments are easiest as the stylist stay pretty busy. The hair cuts are consistent and quality at a price that is comparable to any of the big name men's hair salons. The staff is very nice. I'm told that you can BYO alcohol and store it there to have while in the chair. There is also a clothing store downstairs that sells business/ casual attire making this a one stop shop to feel great about the way you look. You can make appointments in-person, over the phone or on their website.

Justin, one of the best barbers they had, doesn't work here anymore. (2) Also, their hours are falsely advertised. They're closed on Mondays, and I just swung by at 4:00pm and the place is completely empty an hour before their alleged closing time. (3) Lastly, I find this place to be elitist- like you can only get your haircut here if you're some kind of stud who can afford getting a fade 2x a month. Last time I went here, the barbers saw my long hair and teasingly asked me: "so, what salon do you go to?" I'm a college student, and I'm often too broke to get a haircut for up to a few months at a time. So just because I'm a white guy who let his hair grow out, (because I was too broke to cut it) I go to a salon, apparently? They treated me like a joke and that I didn't belong in a barber shop because I wasn't "macho enough" with my long hair. I hate this macho-only culture. The last barber I had barely even accepted the job, he hated that I had longer hair, and he made me feel stupid for being there. I did not feel welcome, and my haircut was not worth $45. Listen, idk who works here now, but if there are any good and friendly barbers still working here; let me know in a reply. Thank you.
