Extravagant Grooming Lounge — Local services in Oakland

Initially visited to get a haircut - I was unclear on what I wanted and didn't like how I looked: that's on me.

I went in to get it fixed the next day and was very clear that I wanted my faux-hawk to look tidy, well put together, and have my hair look like it was done by a skilled barber.
