This place is Awesome!

by iheartbacon

My husband has been coming to Truman's for almost two years now! I bought him a membership after the first time he visited. He loves the staff, they're all very nice and accomdating. I even come in for a glass of wine and to chat at the bar while he's getting his haircut. He definitely looks forward to his appointment every three weeks!

• Pros: Great cuts, drinks, nice staff
• Cons: none.

Great Place

by PagK

Ive been going to Trumans for over a year now, even have a membership. Every visit the service is impeccable and my haircuts are great. The staff there is more than accommodating and are not only professional, but friendly. I have even bought gift cards for my friends and co- workers, and everyone has been beyond satisfied. All in all, it has taken me many years to find a great haircut, and the drinks help too.

• Pros: Service, memberships, amazing haircuts
• Cons: none

A Wonderful Experience~

by hfurment

I've waited several days to write my review on Truman's Gentlemen Groomers, in order to post as clear-minded as possible. It's been four days but my opinion hasn't changed-this place deserves your time, attention, and money. This place is absolutely worth it. I chose to try out Truman's since my last hair salon experience was a nightmare (in Paramus, NJ). The hair salon was cheaper than Trumans but it was a rushed, botched, job and I felt unappreciated.

After feeling so bothered by that experience I started to think about what it was that I wanted out of a barbershop/hair salon. I wanted someplace tranquil where I could truly relax and enjoy my time there. Friendly customer service is obvious. The thing that I wanted the most though was a ?manly? salon. A salon that maintains a sense of masculinity but that isn?t set in the 20s, or 30s.

I tried the Art of Shaving and just wasn't convinced that it'd be a place I'd look forward returning to month after month.

Instead of blindly visiting every barbershop in New York City, I googled male saloons and Truman?s came up. It sounded to good to be true. When I stopped in, the front desk politely asked what it was that I?d be having done. Originally, I was only going for a cut & wash but since I hadn?t had a facial in years and my face felt like cardboard, I said why not. After sitting down for only a couple of minutes, I was asked what beer I?d want served. It was great. I was introduced to Kat, a very talented and kind hair stylist who gave me the haircut I was looking for-clean and styled to the way my hair grows. It sounds like not much but you?d be surprised (or not) by how many barbers and stylists disregard that small detail. She was also a great conversationalist. After the haircut, I went on for a much needed facial. The woman who attended me was absolutely professional and cordial and left my face feeling completely renewed. I'd write more but I've run out of space.

All in all, HIGHLY recommended!
