Plenty of men assume a salon means a long appointment and a longer bill. At Robert’s Salon and Spa, a men’s haircut is a thirty-to-forty-five minute appointment, shampoo included, and we have been doing them on Leonard Street in Belmont Center for more than thirty years. Close to seven hundred men came through for a cut in the first eight months of this year alone.
What you get for the extra few minutes over a barbershop chair is a stylist who looks at how your hair grows before touching it — the cowlick you fight every morning, the way the back thins, the part that will not stay where you put it. Then a cut built around that, rather than the same three guard lengths for everyone. Most men leave with something that still looks right in week five.
Clipper work, scissor work, or both, depending on what the cut needs. Includes a shampoo and a finish. Tell us how you handle it at home and we will cut it so it behaves, rather than something that only works the hour after you leave the chair.
Gray coverage or gray blending, finished with a cut, for $85. Coverage takes the gray out entirely. Blending softens it so there is no hard line as it grows — the option most men pick, because it stretches the time between appointments and never announces itself.
We cut for sons and grandsons, and have for a long time. Book alongside your own appointment if it is easier, and mention it when you reserve so we can build in the time.
If the gray has started showing at the temples, color and a cut together is $85 and takes about ninety minutes. Bringing someone with you? Book alongside a women’s cut and blow dry and we will run the two appointments together rather than back to back.
A men’s haircut starts at $55. Men’s color and cut together is $85. Price depends on length and how much detail the cut takes. We confirm your price before we start, and there is no charge for the consultation.
Yes, when the book allows. Men’s cuts are shorter appointments than color, so we can often fit one in the same day. Calling ahead at 617-489-7733 is the surest way to avoid a wait, and booking online takes about a minute.
Most men’s cuts run 30 to 45 minutes including the shampoo. Adding gray blending or color brings the appointment closer to 90 minutes, since the color needs processing time before the cut and finish.
Both. Full coverage takes the gray out entirely. Blending softens it so there is no obvious line as it grows, which most men prefer because it needs less upkeep. Men’s color and cut together is $85.
Municipal parking sits a short walk from the salon in Belmont Center, and there is metered street parking on Leonard Street. For a thirty-minute cut you will almost always find something without circling.
