so i recently moved to davis sq. from maine.

does anyone know a decent place to get a haircut? I am more of a barbershop type than a salon...but thought i would hear what you have to say.

My all-time favorite is the Kendall Sq. barbershop ($17 as I recall it), but they have this problematic insistence of only being open from 9-5, and only on weekdays. They do the straight razor detailing and when you're done they vacuum the hairs from your head, which to my mind is the COOLEST thing ever as haircuts go.

My current favorite is Charlie's Barbershop ($14) just outside of Porter Sq. (head down Mass. Ave toward Harvard Sq. and they're on the left. They're as good as Kendall, and use the straight razor, sadly no vacuum. On the upside they're open evenings and weekends.

LaFlamme? I know guys who swear by them, but the cut I got was pretty sub-average.
