This is where I moved to from the Men's Room downtown after Jerry became a fireman (good move on…read morehis part in my opinion), even though I work much closer to Men's Room downtown. I have also tried Patsy's and Mr. Cuts. I have a lot of hair and it is coarse and there are several cowlicks, and Heather keeps it all under control. Results at other places I have listed here have been less predictable, and at times downright weird (same barber at the Men's Room cut the same mole on my neck three times with the razor, even with warning. Patsy's feels like everyone just got out of prison, and I never found a connection where the conversation was about my actual hair because there are lots of tattoos and piercings and motorcycles and drama. Mr. Cuts, when I tried it, was a former Men's Room barber who ignored the cowlick situation and left me looking like a second grader for three days while it grew out to a length that responded to product). The barber relationship is like the mechanic relationship: you gotta know things are going to work right after you've paid the bill. Heather makes sure she knows what you want done, and competently executes without unwanted variation. The fact that she's a nice person with a calm presence and a good sense of humor means if there's an issue you can talk about it - but there's no issue, so its all good. The one star I might have removed is for the parking situation. I get the location for the captive audience in the building, but for me that's just a total bummer because it adds $$ to every visit. If you can't walk there easily, this is a four star review.

Dina has been cutting my hair for almost 20 years, and I think that says something. Whether it's…read moreDina herself (or colleague Heather--also excellent), Castiglione's is the only place for a haircut. I just recently (and I don't know why I waited as long as I did) tried a hot towel shave---wow. Just wow. The shave itself was smooth and close, and the overall experience was amazingly relaxing. I almost hesitate to give such a glowing review, as it will mean that it's just that much more difficult to get an appointment, but right is right. If you're looking for an excellent haircut in a friendly shop, this is the place.

Toni will be creative giving you ideas depending on what you want to have done and what would look better and will cut your hair and do your beard however you desire.

Jan got me started on pedi & mani with diligent young lady- was great! By 1:12pm Jan was finally ready to cut my hair after shampooing, $15 eyebrow wax that she talked me into, & finally voila, a $55 10-min haircut with no layers nor shape. I asked for side bangs 3 times & each time was met with resistance. "I don't want to cut too short" I gave up after the third ask. Conversation was also intrusive - where do you live? What's your job? What's your ethnicity? This is supposed to be a relaxing experience, not an interrogation. Total bill $145. Will not be going back for sure.

I told them to stop but they wanted the mo ey so bad .. my mom came and told them to stop ! she said she would charge for the wash! then let me leave with half hair in black sticky gel!!! these people are rude!!!!! and then had the nerve to be acting like they were praying in the other room but rude and tried to hold me hostage why my mom went to get her credit card from the car . I guess they thought that we were not going to pay for thwm washing my hair .. which again I left with tons of black gel in my hair! them people do not kno me what your talking about only money !!! and then there mean and rude!!!! and they talk about you while your sitting there and amongst themelves, that s so rude , disrespectful and just ungrateful. people come to your shop to get serviced and you have a problem with them.

My hair was f-ed up and I was traumatized by hair salons in NYC. Minolo saved my hair with an…read moreinnovative technique that he came up with out of necessity. I usually get annoyed with hair dressers who chop off all my hair because they're lazy and because they try to make me talk (usually to sell themselves...). Minolo had an authentic, real and empathetic personality that I have never encountered in this business. He kept the length of my hair so well and it looks even better. I have never been happier walking out of a salon. Some extra feedback: I live 5hrs away in Brooklyn, NY and stayed upstate for the weekend (as I usually do every few months). I found this place by chance on my way to Guitar Center. I have a few Paul Mitchell products and I like them over the several I've tried (esp. "Super Skinny" serum for my frizzy and wavy/curly hair) - so I decided to walk in. I would definitely come back for Minolo, he treated me like a human being and he is very skilled at what he does. This salon has a lot of integrity. I never walked into a salon like this in my whole entire life. I am really grateful to encounter such wonderful human beings.

It's always a happy bustling place with all kinds of customers, including men. I like the variety. But they kicked it up a notch this past week when I went for my usual.

Everyone benefitted from this spirit of camaraderie, and it was heartwarming. Maybe that's why this is such a happy place to get beautiful! Definitely one of Albany's best kept secrets.
