Fame Barber Spa

If you want drama this is the place. Employees arguing and stabbing each other in the back at every chance they get. I couldn’t even relax through my appointment with all the shouting in the salon. This is not for me.

$ 85 with tip will get you a mom haircut. I asked for a long bob with layers in front and walked away looking like a soccer mom. Huzzah.
On the bright side there was minimal small talk and the head massage was nice.

I recently tried Fame at their Commerce Drive location. Although Fame seems to be primarily an upscale hair salon and spa for women, they also have a separate section for men.
What impressed me was that Edie (short for Edith?) cut my hair so well, that it not only looked great when I left Fame; my haircut drew repeated compliments from my wife, and even looked good after I washed and groomed it the next day.
It has been years since I’ve had a haircut this good. I’ll be back!
On a cautionary note: higher quality comes at a higher price, so come prepared to pay a little more.

I have been in search of a new hair place for some time. Being in the middle of a hair crisis, I ran into Mr. Fame Barber Salon on a Saturday hoping someone would take pitty on me and cut my hair.
First of all, the place is huge… it is shared witha full women’s salon and spa. I went into the Men’s side.
A very nice gentleman who I later learned was the owner set my two kids up in front of a TV immediately and put on CareBears (although this was clearly not this type of place). The whole place was very chik.
I was offered coffee or water… and the man took to using a clippers for my fade. I could see that he was spending considerable time and concentration on me.
A women came over and began observing… I assumed it was someone in training.
I was then asked to go with her. She took me over to a lie down washing sink. (Think leather lazy boy with a sink at the top).
I was told to sit back and enjoy the ride. Wow! This was fantastic. Hot towels were placed over my face… various different shampoos and cleansers were used on my head, and then a full head massage… THEN some face and neck massaging with further cleansers (or some type of cream) that made my face tingle and feel fresh and clean.
I was then escorted back to the barber chair for my barber to finish the job. Again, considerable time and concentration on completing the task to give me a fantastic hair cut.
I felt great!!! I was blown away with this place.
The whole thing cost 33 dollars and I tipped up to 40. I am not sure if this was a «First time experience» cost or what… But I was sold.
I’ll be back for sure.
