4. In true speakeasy style, one can access The Good Life Barbershop by opening a nondescript metal gate, walking through another door, and following a staircase down to a modern day mancave. This sanctuary includes a pool table, several flat screens, racy men’s magazines, and free drinks (beer included) amongst four barber chairs. Run by a mother-son duo (not sure how the mom feels about the aforementioned racy magazines), The Good Life Barbershop aims to make you feel right at home. At $11, a simple haircut is priced right. If you’re looking to spiffy up for a special occasion, indulge in a face shave with two hot towel steams, lather massage, and straight razor shave for $35. Unlike a few other barbershops on this list, The Good Life Barbershop is well-versed in practices of the 21st century — you can book an appointment on their website.
