groom
714 Old World Third St
(414) 298-2076

groom is located on historic Old World Third St. in the heart of Downtown. It's got class, it's got style, it's got moxy, it's in the very cool former Lee Lewis Hat Shop in the Hotel Wisconsin, and most importantly, groom gives quality haircuts that make you look and feel great.

The salon specializes in old-school techniques and ultra-modern, overtly urban and very cool results. Your appointment at groom will be like no other haircut you've ever had. It will feature a long shampoo with a wonderful head massage, an herbal conditioning treatment, a personalized haircut, waxing and plucking, an electric clipping of your bushy eyebrows, a stern tongue-lashing about those sideburns that you haven't shaved in three months, an old-fashioned straight razor shave complete with a few slaps on the face and hot, moist towel wrappings.

groom's hours are Tues-Fri., noon-8 p.m.; Sat., 9 a.m.- 3:30 p.m.

The Men's Room
4423 N. Oakland Ave.
(414) 961-9019

The Men's Room Barber Shop is the newest addition to the growing number of male specific salons opening in the Milwaukee area. But don't look for the familiar rotating red and white candy cane striped barber poll -- this is a barber shop for the 21st century.

If the name itself doesn't tell you that this place is all for guys, the pictograph of male symbol you find on the door of a public restroom should be your second big clue. You definitely feel like you are walking into a space designed for the contemporary male when you first enter The Men's Room. Once seated you will notice an unapologetically male magazine selection. No Elle or Martha Stewart here, guys. And there is always a bowl of snacks to munch on while you wait.

Unlike a traditional barber shop or local Supercuts that can have you sporting the latest buzz cut in a matter of minutes, Trish and the rest of the staff at The Men's Room try hard to make the whole experience relaxing and enjoyable.

In today's hectic lifestyles of the busy man,45 minutes at The Men's Room can be nearly as rejuvinating as a trip to the Spa for a good rub down.

The Men's Room is open Tues., 9-7 p.m.; Wed., 10-8 p.m.; Thurs., 9-8 p.m.; Fri., 9-6 p.m.; Sat., 9-4 p.m.
