Astoria Salon

aziz is a great barber. he does an excellent job. his shape ups are legit. he knows how to do a great beard. he is an awesome barber.

I pass by this salon sometimes on my way home and there are times when this salon has its lights on until well past times that you would think a salon would be open and there’s nothing but music and people laughing loudly, that definitely kept me away when I needed a cut.
I walked in the other day though and it was quiet and I got seated quickly. My haircut is an easy. I just have someone run some clippers through my hair and it’s pretty much done… almost to the point that I feel kind of cheated whenever I get charged more than 10 bucks for a haircut.
They charge 12 here for a men’s haircut and I felt like a king. The barber took his time, made sure everything was set then ran some disinfectant on me before he trimmed my sideburns and edges with a straight razor. I haven’t had a razor trim in a while and it’s one of those little touches that I miss and appreciate when I get it. 12 bucks for all that isn’t too bad and I can always run home for a quick shampoo so it’s a pretty good deal for me.
