Why Lincoln Park rides down

The Brown Line does the work.

If you live in Lincoln Park and work in River North or the Loop, the shop is already on your commute. Hop off at Chicago on the way home and you're in the chair.

Weekends work too. We're open Saturday 9am to 6:30pm and Sunday 10am to 6pm, so a cut doesn't eat the whole morning. For longer styles, The Old Fashion Scissors is a 50 minute scissor cut done the traditional way.

  • No transfer from Fullerton, Armitage, or Sedgwick
  • Open Saturday and Sunday
  • Scissor cuts for longer styles
