Owned by a teacher for Paul Mitchell, The Menz Room Barber Salon aims to fuse cutting-edge styles with a welcoming barbershop ambiance. The staff greets clients with a complimentary bottle of cold, bubbly beer, and then analyzes each subject’s hair type and instructional scalp tattoos. Barbers and stylists then shampoo, snip, and sculpt classic or trendy cuts for both men and women. They can restore vibrant colors to graying manes using Paul Mitchell's 10 Minute Flashback Service and blow out longer locks. For all services, the team focuses on convenience; they run a monthly hair club with unlimited cuts and keep flexible hours so clients can be extra productive while sleepwalking.
