Barber Recommendation - Aurora

You don't hear guys talk about where to get their hair cut too often, especially not from strangers, but I found an excellent barber in Aurora about a month ago that I want to give a huge recommendation to. It seems like it's a dying profession and men's haircuts for men are going the way of the dodo (so if I want to keep getting haircuts from this guy it would do me well to make sure he gets plenty of business and doesn't move away).

If you want a really sharp haircut, trust me, this guy is WAAAAY better than any Great Clips or Fantastic Sams you might go to. And he only charges $13. If you live or work in Aurora near 225 and Parker road, go there. You won't regret it. It's at the north end of the parking lot of the King Soopers there.

Total hole in the wall. Russian Mom and Pop shop. I've gotten two haircuts from the son Alex in the past month, and they're literally the best haircuts I've ever gotten in my life. He spends about 15 minutes working on the fade and cleaning up edges, practically with a magnifying glass. A real perfectionist, and one hell of a bargain.

Ask for Alex (can't vouch for mom and dad). He works Thursday, Friday, Saturday.

nice...ill have to remember that if i stop shaving my head

I started shaving my head because of the lack of quality haircuts to be had. There's one decent place in town, Rooster's, but that's at least $20 and I'm not going to pay it.

I'd kill for a decently priced barber.

Little shop in Aurora (Parker and Quincy) right next to the 24 hour fitness; does a great high and tight for $11.00. Shaves the neck and vacuums the little hair that always falls in your shirt for you too.

I'll have to check out this place.. it's right up the road..

Is it a full barber shop? Like hot towel shaves and all?

$11!!! Geez, I'm getting ripped off! My guy is about 100 feet from my work though, so I can swing the $13.

If you're talking about the Russke place, yes, it says on his card that he does all that stuff. But I haven't had it done.

Went to go to Al's, in Boulder, for about seven years. The barber I liked there went to the Denver shop. [Rant1] Full service shop but not cheap. Worth the price because I never walked out with a bad haircut.

The Sunnyside recently opened in Ned. Jimmy (pronounced Himmy) does an excellent job. Does a real straight razor shave too.

I'd buy a Flobee and a bowl before going to Great Clips, Cost Cutters, etc.

I use to goto Regatta Barbers since 1993 till about 1999.
I chose that place because it was cheapest at that time ($6).
Also, my church member use to own an electronic repair shop right next to the Barber Shop.

+1 for Regatta Barbers (Can't speak for it now, but I can for 1993-1999).


Also, there is a barber shop called

Hoffman Heights Barber Shop
720 Peoria Street
Aurora, CO 80011-8231

SimonAminovIs (or was) a owner. He use to work at Regatta, but opened his own shop around 1998ish?
So, I went to Hoffman Heights to get my hair done around 1999-2001 until I moved to Los Angeles for a new career.

I think the last time I even got a "professional" haircut was 1991. Since then it's either been 3/4 of the way down my back or, shaved. [Tooth]

C'mon Marlin, just jump in the seat and tell em how you want it.

Not me.. Hair is too short and No beard.

Did I not mention the "4th" member of ZZ Top look I had going.

Went to Rooster's Barber Shop yesterday in Aurora, at Chambers and Smoky Hill. Very nice experience. They really spent some money on the interior of the place, it's really nice. Best haircut I've had in a long time too. Haircut includes a shampoo - all the stations have a sink built in which I thought was pretty cool. Afterward, she shaved (not clippered) my neck and slapped it with moisturizer and aftershave. Oh, it was not cheap. $25, minus $4 for military/LE discount. Worth every penny.

Have not been there in a few years but The Coronado, across from the courthouse. Stephanie owns or use to own it. If you go there let her know Jim(tattoos) said to drop in. Stephanie says this is a barbershop not some foo foo hair place.

Cutters Den at University and Dry Creek is great. LeAnne is a great barber. I've been going to her for about 10 years.

They have coupons on their website, http://www.cuttersden.com/. I can't remember the cost about $15 I think.

Hey guys,
This thread is over a year old, I'm sure the OP has found a barber by now.
Or he has decided to go 70's retro and is wearing his hair in a pony tail.........

And no. ridge this isn't a Bronie thread just because I mentioned pony tail.....[ROFL1]

So? I resurrected it because I found a barber I like. Boy, there sure are a lot of unofficial moderators around here. I bet if I had started a new thread about it, I would have been chastised for that too.

Just pass out at a party you might wake up with a new sharpy tat and a partial cut for free .. i am lucky my wife is a cosmetologist

The guys behind good times near hampden and yosemite do a pretty good job with a straight razor.

Is it close to somebody's time of the month ? [LOL]

All I want in a barber shop is a hot chick rubbing her boobs against me.
