Congrats to the Manly Fireplug

SF WEEKLY’s BEST BARBERSHOP 2009

Joe’s Barbershop

the Manly Fireplug's New Shop

“It should surprise no one that gay men commonly harbor barbershop fantasies. If you’re like a lot of guys who languished through closeted childhoods in Middle America, then you spent every third or fourth Saturday waiting with your Dad and brothers and a roomful of other men for Tom or Bob or Gus to cut your hair. The one consolation was that — at the end of all your waiting — a big, strong man rewarded you by making you sit still while he massaged your neckline with a pair of clippers. Your imagination did the rest. Joe’s Barbershop (newly located near the Church Street Muni station) closes the gap between fantasy and reality, offering high-and-tight haircuts by guys who look like they’re more at home on Folsom Street than Castro Street. At $25, these aren’t the cheapest croppings around, but it’s not a bad price for a buzz cut that feels like a hot one-night stand.”

    Next time I am in SF I will try to make sure I go needing a cut and come home with a joe’s high & tite.

    Hey all you bears. Even if you’re bald on top, I know Joe trims back hair too. Just in case yours is getting a little unruly.

    Congrats on the best barbershop rating!
