Old Wolf — Local services in Fayetteville

I needed to get the oil changed in my truck, so I drove around town looking for a service center. I drove past Old Wolf and it looked pretty clean and professional. I parked and went inside. At first I was confused by the amount of seating they had in the lobby for customers to wait while they get their oil changed. Then it dawned on me that this was one of those oil change/barbershop combos you hear so much about. Basically its like a KFC/Long John Silvers combo restaurant. Anyway I was goin to go to the front desk there to schedule my service, but before I got to the desk I locked eyes with this blonde hunk with a mohawk. He was smiling and laughing, giving some dude in a white button up a trim. I was mesmerized. Let me tell you I forgot all about getting my oil changed, because my fluids were clearly not low at this moment. Since my knees were getting a bit wobbly I decided to collapse down on a nearby chair. I glanced up from the face of this angel and read the name above his station, Tallon it read. Yes, what a suitable name for a man of this pedigree. I decided at that moment I needed to get my hair trimmed by this greek god. I tried to steady myself and get an appointment online but he was booked up for the day. I was singularly fortunate that the chair I had collapsed into was made of a material that was super absorbent and it was a dark material so no one could tell that my blow hole was spuing like Old Faithful. I decided it best to make may way out front in a hurry as not to leave a slime trail like a slug behind me. Once I got out front and had a moment to clear my head, I hatched my plan. I would wait in the parking lot and ask people coming in if they were here to get a haircut from Tallon. Then when I found one of these people I could lure them over behind the dumpster and chloroform them. After which I could then check their drivers license, and assume their identity. At which point I could breeze right in through the front door and get my haircut with Tallon using my assumed identity. I could be in and out before the person woke up. Perfect. Only one problem, I had been standing out front of the shop on the concrete mulling this whole thing over for some time. I guess I didn't realize how soaking wet I had become standing there basting in my own juices. As soon as I took one step I slipped in my own pool of slime and landed right on my head. Yep knocked myself out cold. Anyway to make a long story short this is an excellent barbershop and I feel it can make even the driest person super juicy inside and out.

These folks are just great people. My barber for 15 years retired so I was on the lookout for someone new when I found this place. Needless to say, I found my new barber home. Like I said, these are just good people. My barber, Tallon, has gone the extra mile for me time and again, taking notes on my hair to ensure the best cut every time. Going to the barber for me can be therapy and Tallon has always taken time to listen to the little details in our conversations, and he remembers the little things we talk about. This is the kind of personal touch you just can’t find at most places and I think it’s really thoughtful. Not too mention that the atmosphere is amazing, the prices are more than reasonable and they make going to get a regular haircut a highlight of my day. I cannot heap enough praise on Old Wolf, so if you like good atmosphere, great service, and great people, make sure you hit them up. You...

The vibe was really cozy, barber was real nice and welcoming, and my haircut was pretty good. My only concern was that I got cut 4 times. Definitely felt the pain but my barber kept going so I assumed everything was fine. Got home and turns out 3 of the cuts were deep enough for blood to flow out and be easily visible. Good atmosphere, but wish they were careful. Price-wise, I spent $40 on my session.

The owner reached out and sincerely apologized. They offered a full refund but I declined. Additionally, the barber reached out to clarify the occurrence and offered a second refund as well as future accommodations. I can tell they cared deeply about customer interactions and provided great service. I could tell it was a one-time mistake and that it wouldn’t happen again in the future, so I wouldn’t let my bad experience sour anyone else from getting a...
