Christmas shopping doesn't have to be hairy

Treating yourself to a haircut and professional shave is a good gift to oneself.

But it can also be a gift from you to another person.

The holidays are fast approaching and Mariemont Barber Shop owner Ron Salzano has gift certificates available for every man.

All one has to do is walk into the barber shop and tell Ron how much they want to spend on the gift certificate.

"I have people who come in here all the time to buy gift certificates for their family or friends. But I think the gift of giving a man a shampoo, haircut and a shave would be treat for any man, not to mention a good gift," Salzano said.

For example, haircuts and shaves $13.50 each. The haircut also includes getting your hair washed. There is the “businessman’s special”, which includes a wash, haircut and scalp massage for $16. The cleansing facial package is also $13.50. So, a person may come in, get a gift certificate for one haircut, or five haircuts and five shaves, or anything else they want to include with the certificate.

"The certificates are popular with people who are expecting out-of-town guests and would like to treat their visitors to a relaxing hour," Ron said. “Men come in here and feel relaxed. A lot of men don’t go to salons because they feel intimidated,” he says.

The village locale is a full-service barbershop, not only offering haircuts, shaves and facials but also good conversation, sports TV for the fan and cartoons for the child.

To learn more, stop in at 6880 Wooster Pike or call 271-7676.
