Under pressure from Paul not to have another hatchet job on my hair I started booking up with Alex of Cube Hairdressing for Men on Swinegate in York. Paul first starting going to Cube in the middle of 2008 and always comes back with a very good haircut from Alex, whereas I generally went for a clipper job at the local butchers for £12.50 all in!
When I first went, I wondered whether it would be worth Alex trying to style something out of my short lifeless flat headed mop but after about an hour I was very happy. Alex managed to do something with my lifeless hair that made it look good for once. What also came as an enjoyable surprise was the flame throwing around my ears that involved methylated spirits, a match and a cotton bud. It was an interesting experience and I’ve been having the same treatment ever since.
Ever since then I’ve kept going back to Cube Hairdressing for Men and always booking up to see Alex. Pleasant on the eye, he also engages in quite good conversation and we generally have a laugh and a bit of a gossip while he puts my head in order.
This week was no exception and on Monday I managed to bag a slot with him where the usual great cut took place.
At £32 I think this is great value for a mans haircut in the middle of York especially if you don’t want to be surrounded by lip gloss and hairspray. If you go along ask for Alex and say hi from the Pryordurkins.
