    You're going to need to make an appointment; don't drop in. Go ahead, make your appointment now…read more I'll wait. My son and I needed haircuts. We were QUITE shaggy. He's three and I'm... Considerably older than that. I'm not used to going to a salon; I usually take my boy to an athletic barber shop chain in the area. Full disclosure, they're much cheaper than The Standard but your mom was right: you get what you pay for. I showed up very early for my appointment and the person ahead of me had cancelled, so Neil sat me right away (yeah, half an hour early). He asked me for direction, and I let him know that I typically get quarterly haircuts and I'd like about this length in front and off my neck and ears. That's all he needed; I don't think he asked me a single question about "want me to trim your brows?" or anything like that. It's awkward to have that question stated. Like what would I say anyway? "Nah. I like really bushy brows; I'm going for the Eugene Levy look." Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that he needed very little direction and ended up giving me EXACTLY what I wanted. If I'd given him more direction, I would have been driving him further away from what I really want. I don't know that I've had a haircut this good this DECADE. No fluff. Neil is laid back, calm, positive, and friendly. So he made me happy. Now for the part where he does a task much more difficult: He makes my wife happy by making my son look good. My son doesn't approach a haircut easily. Though he really wanted a haircut, the prospect of actually sitting in a chair while getting it cut made him nervous. Neil was really good with him (Neil's a dad, so yeah; he's good with kids). He went slowly around the places where my son sank in the chair because it tickled; and I can't tell where he made a single erroneous snip. I told him to give my son the same cut he gave me, and I think he did that perfectly. So does my wife. Apart from how spectacular Neil was, I suppose it's also noteworthy that the environment is clean, upscale, and hip. Overall, I think I'll be trusting Neil with the male heads in my family for the foreseeable future. I was bracing myself for a much heftier tab than it was (I don't think it was even $10 more than the other place for the two of us), I got a flawless haircut for two heads, and my purchase helped a local entrepreneur instead of a franchise.

    Being brand new to NLR, I didn't have a stylist in the area and my stylist is 4 hours away. I…read morecalled The Standard and spoke to Ashley. Ashley is a miracle worker. I have very thick curly hair that was a mess! Not only was she able to get me in on extremely short notice, but she transformed my hair and gave it a style, not just the dreaded triangle shape most curlies are familiar with. If you have textured hair or are just looking for a new stylist, I highly recommend Ashley. She is professional, friendly, and extremely talented.
