Located at 992 Ottawa Street Southwest, the Maison Privee is a worthy contender in the barbershop category. The small and stubby nameplate offers the requisite high tech trimmings, but it is the affable customer service that sets it apart. The high-end suites offer a high-end plethora of treatments to choose from, and an illustrious list of clients that includes the likes of the likes of the likes of the latter. The most notable drawback is that it is located in an area best known for shady businesspeople. The best thing is that you can make an appointment. If you’re looking for a little more pampering, the adjoining La Chapelle is a more suitable fit. Its a small shop in the grand scheme of things, but if you’re a hairspray snob, you’re in for a treat.
If you’re in the market for a new look, you’ll be pleased to learn that the La Chapelle is open seven days a week. There’s no doubt that this is a great neighborhood to spend your hard earned cash, but it’s also home to a plethora of fine restaurants, upscale nightlife options, and a plethora of affluent neighborhoods. This is a good thing for a town with a population of around 50,000.
