They gave us info on all the good food spots in Halifax and told us about the Canada Day BBQ which changed my life. Oh the cut. You're wondering how the cut went aren't you? Mannn that cut made me like 3x more handsome. Oh this is important make sure to make an appointment because chairs get booked fast. It's worth it. You'll probably get double the Tinder matches if you let them cut you They also have Bonafide Pomade which is probably the best stuff you can get. Smells so good but please do not eat it

You know the theory of dating up and dating down? That whole, reacher/settler thing in…read morerelationships? Well, sometimes I apply that to the businesses I support. For example, places like the Brooklyn Warehouse and Two If By Sea, make me feel like I'm becoming cooler just by association. Standing outside of Willy's waiting for poutine while its still daylight out? Still awesome, but yet, I draw just a wee bit of shame from it all. I'm adding haircuts at Saint Lou's to the 'dating up' column of local stops that I make. I've had a long love affair with my go-to hair place but c'mon...at a certain point a guy needs to admit that he can't afford $55 (with tip) every three weeks. So, when faced with the scary choice of new hair help, I decided to take a leap of faith and go with the one that all the cool kids are talking about. A wee space in the Historic Properties, Saint Lou's oozes cool factor. A gorgeous guitar and rotary phone share one wall, black-and-whites of Elvis in a barber chair and vintage gear hang on the other, and a single chair sits in the middle of it all. The main man himself, Rob, is bringing barber back with these sweet digs that have tourists and locals alike stopping to take pictures. No really - that happened! Now, a couple of things: 1) It's cash-only so come prepared. If you don't? Well, no big deal actually. Rob insisted I get my cut before running off to find a working ATM which was really helpful especially since the one in Historic Properties is usually bunk. 2) There are no appointments. "What? No appointments? That's crazy talk!" Yes. At first I would have agreed with you. But hey - no appointments means you can just pop in whenever...and that's actually pretty awesome. I showed up, I sat down, I left looking awesome. It was that easy. 3) While Saint Lou's definitely goes for the barber vibe (and succeeds), let's get serious and remember that Rob spent five years at Spirit Spa and the past three years working in Australia. This isn't just a buzzcut destination. You're working with a pro. 4) Yes - the rumours are true. Cuts at Saint Lou's ($27 for a full deal, but there are options for quick clean-ups in between cuts) come with a drip coffee from Two If By Sea down the hall or a beer if you feel so inclined. Which. Um. You obviously should. This one's a winner, gents!

After my old barber became wicked busy at every time of day, I decided to switch it up. An even…read morestronger impetus was that Phat's is just around the corner from my new apartment. Less commuting, shorter waits and cheaper prices are going to beat out a hip decor and a beer while you wait. Down to the brass tacks though. Phat is a pro doing a quick, but well done cut and providing some great banter, whether it's with you or giving s#!t to regulars waiting in the handful of chairs along the wall. If there is a few people waiting when you come by, don't worry, as you won't be waiting long and you'll enjoy the show. The space may be a little rough around the edges, but this is a case function of form. Phat gets it done and at $17 for a cut ($16 if he forgets that he increased prices haha) you should be coming here to get your ears lowered.

I've been going to Brian's for as along as I can remember…read more Haircuts are one of those things that can be called a mundane life task, but given the right barber or hairdresser, it can turn into an enjoyable experience. Brian's makes it an enjoyable experience. The place has grown in popularity over the years. When I started going back about 8 years ago, it was just Brian and one other hairdresser. He's since grown to include another 3 employees and the shop has become quite popular. Brian himself is a nice guy and as someone below as mentioned, he's a "wizard with scissors". He will take time to cut your hair, however when it get's busy, he can pick up the pace to the point where on one particular day, he cut all of my hair in about 3 minutes. And he did a nice job too! Because the place is so popular, be prepared to wait at least 15-20 minutes at peak times (Saturday Morning-Afternoon) for someone. It is quiet during the off hours (Most mornings, early afternoon) Compared to the other shops in Sackville, I like the one-on-one feel of this place. All of the staff know me by name, are very friendly and we have good chats while they clip away. Pricing is on par with most barber ships and hairdressers. A men's cut with a tip costs about $20, which is a reasonable price. And Brian has only raised the price once in the 8 years I've been going here. Overall, Brian's is a great barbershop and I wouldn't go anywhere else.
