In this era of über-chic salons and bewilderingly varied hair products, a visit to a traditional barbershop is a rare treat. And the Avalon Barber Shop is a classic, complete with revolving red-and-white-striped barber pole. Any of the certified barbers, will sit you down in one of the vintage chairs and deftly snip away at your mop as you survey the walls, filled with pictures of faithful customers and a myriad of other memorabilia Close your eyes and drift off as your face is wrapped face in warm, steaming towels. Your pores appropriately massaged, they can swab on hot lather and glide a straight razor along your skin with the skill of a surgeon. A fresh “sage rub” aftershave will put some color back in your cheeks. Suddenly, you’re as sharp as the well-heeled regulars who’ve frequented the shop since the 1940s. This is the grooming of Houston men.
