Bend's first men's salon
A blurb in today's Bulletin (the Business page) prompted me to blog this: the opening of Bend's first men's-only salon, JayT's Hair Parlor for Men. They're located in the Old Mill District, at 530 SW Mill View Way, next to the Bush Animal Clinic. Their number is 306-6912.
Notably (aside from the men's-only status), they serve a complimentary beer or glass of wine during haircuts, like the Bond Street Barber Shop downtown.
They ran a coupon in last week's paper for one free men's haircut during their grand opening; it's good through May 19th. I've been carrying the coupon around with me and I'll try them out in the next couple of weeks.
...and yeah, a "men's-only" salon strikes me as funny (in an inappropriate way); it doesn't help that the Bulletin blurb also mentions they'll "soon add manicures and massages."
Beer and a massage. That's awesome.

Finally, men's haircuts for men. The last time I went to one of those ladies hair stylists I walked out looking like Paris Hilton. ;)
Seriously, you better give a report on the free beer. I mean, free beer is a good thing, but not if it's crap beer. I can see a dual review for the Brew Site.

The couple indicates "local" beer, so I'm confident it won't be crap. :)

So who cuts your hair? If it were a real men's salon, they'd be super-models in bikinis or something ;-)
