He approaches his work with passion and humanity, and a skill level that is all too rare these days. We were so lucky to find his shop. He went the extra mile to help sort out my son's very tricky long curly hair that most other barbers wouldn't even touch. I had several celebrity stylists in NY say they couldn't / wouldn't do it, and then we found Saad and he made it look easy. Phenomenal experience. 5 stars.

Its pulse doesn't shake the shopping centers or the offices or the multitudes they carry. It honors no arrhythmia before the Capitol or the architecture that has grown around it. Because it's often the case that the biggest machine lives and dies not by its most imposing part, but by the smallest pin in its center. It's easy to miss Patsy's Barber Shop if you're weaving through the traffic of State and Pearl. You have to know to take the right onto Howard Street and go slowly enough not to miss the white neon tubing that brightens the shop and casts just enough of its glow onto the sidewalk to let you see the barbers ply their trade. Patsy's opened in 1930 at the cusp of the Great Depression, when a proper haircut was a man's resume and the newspaper on the empty seat was the employment office. It was a family business, like many that had dotted the downtown and further south to the neighborhoods that would eventually be sacrificed to Nelson Rockefeller's sense of grandeur. William "Tragedy" Yager now presides over the memories absorbed into the mirrors and the padded chairs. Since 2006, he's followed in the footsteps of his great grandfather, a man who likely opened up shop as he always did on the day Japanese planes set off for infamy. And anyone who's had a seat in one of his chairs and a hot towel on their face knows that Tragedy didn't just inherit a trade; he inherited a love and a duty to everyone that crosses the threshold. A large man with a long, thick beard and a tapestry of tattoos lining both temples, he wouldn't strike you as a man you would want to meet in a dark alley. But again, the seat, the hot towel, two minutes in conversation, and you'll realize that he's exactly the man you would want to meet in a dark alley if your car broke down, if you were cold, hungry and scared, if everybody passed you by. Because there are certain things you can expect from those possessed of the instinct of leadership. But what you may not expect is that sometimes, the places where matters are truly decided accept walk-ins. Patsy's Barber Shop has two locations, 3 Howard Street in downtown Albany and Room 126 on the Concourse Level. Call for an appointment and check for hours. And be sure to patronize the many barbers Tragedy has trained personally.

I stopped in for a haircut while traveling. I showed the guy a photo of what my hair looks like…read moreright after a fresh haircut. He nodded and said he could do that. Turns out, he couldn't. 1) He left clumps of hair uncut on the top-left side of my head. 2) The length on the left and right temples didn't match. 3). And this is the kicker right out of comedy/horror movie: I have a short beard. When trimming my side burns he buzzed the right sideburn along with also trimming about 1 inch of my beard clean off down to the skin below the sideburn. CLEAN OFF! Yes, I now had a beard with 1 inch clean shaven area between the rest of the hair on my head. I THEN TOLD HIM THAT HE MADE A MISTAKE AND NOT TO CUT THE OTHER SIDE DOWN TO BARE SKIN. So what does he do? He ignores me and proceeds to mess up my beard on the other side, buzzing it clean off to bare skin right after I told him not to. It's a small shop, so the patrons to the right and left hear all of this as do the customers waiting. Everyone, including his mom is now craning their neck to look at the freak show haircut this guy gave me. Mortifying and embarrassing. No apologies or explanations were given. I had an appointment that I had to cancel since I had to run home in an attempt to resurrect the MESS this guy made. Just in case they post a reply turning the blame on me after this post, I never said to touch my beard. I own a beard trimmer obviously. He didn't bother to clip on a numbered trimmer clip to keep the beard intact. He just hacked away to his hearts content. 100% true review. Photos to prove it. Avoid this shop.
