Mongers, I will never shave myself again in BA, on the same block as the casa is a reall barber for 120 pesos I got the best haircut and shave of my life my face is like a baby's ass.
Walk out of the house right turn on the same side of the streetb efore you get to the laundry.
I felt more manly after that!
My 15$haircut at super cuts from a fat ass ***** is more expensive and Not even close as good.
Every three or four days I'm going to go back for a shave. 60 pesos.
So where is this place with the wonderful shaves?
On Uruguay, just south of the intersection with Alvear.
[QUOTE=Wild Walleye;424156]On Uruguay, just south of the intersection with Alvear.[/QUOTE]Uruguay or Montevideo? According to my Google map Uruguay runs into Guido and doesn't intersect Alvear.
On my next visit I'll be staying on Parera so I'm close. Do you have a name of this place and an address?
Ww has it right its half a block up uruguay towards el alamo from the casa 900 block before the esq, same side as the casa. My face is still smooth today, no stubble or burn, fucking awseome, chicas love it!
Ill never pack a razor to BA again.

Ok there is no number on the storefront, but the apt next door facing it to the right is973 Uruguay so its prolly 977 or 975there is a barber pole out front visible from a block away the guy sometimes sleeps behind the counter just go in, remember to go with a day or tows worth of growth for best results and don't tighten your face up just stay relaxed. My testosterone level went up after I was feeling manly, I was a once a week shaver no ill go every 2 or 3 days. Remember to tip, dong be a tacano, this guy is holding a razor to your face and making you look good.
If you don't speak spanish do what I did motion at your stubbly face like your having a shave.
I get it. I was looking at Av. Alvear, you were referring to Marcelo T Alvear. I see where it is. Thanks.
Gato:
I was thinking of getting some manscaping done, what sort of hand-signal or body language should I use?

Went back today. 65 pesos for looking good and feeling good, I had to have a smooth face for my GF to kiss me with LOL
Had a very good haircut yesterday by a barber that works alone on Carlos Pellegrini 755 in the Galeria Stella Maris. He's a real barber, not one of the "unisex" places.
His name is Daniel, and he strives to give you what you like. He also teaches barbering, and is a real pro.

[QUOTE=Thomaso276;439453]Hey bro. How much for the cut?[/QUOTE]$130 pesos, but he will make sure to give you what you want. It's slightly off the street in a little galleria.
When I travel to South America I always get a haircut beard trim and shave. In montevideo tip and all 20 us in BA tip and all 15 us in Ecuador tip and all less than 10 us. You know the old saying the only difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut is about three weeks. I have never had a shave in the us I am not sure many barbers know how to give a shave...
On my last trip to BA in Palermo I stopped in a mens store looking a a coat. The salesman said do you like this coat and I said well it has lots of zippers on the pockets. That gives a person many places to hide valuables. The salesman said you do not need to worry about that in this neighbor hood. I said well in your beautiful city I have been robbed two times. He asked were. I said near the Obelisk. He said make a pledge now to never go near the Obelisk again, he continued with, that area may be the most dangerous in all on BA..Hum that is food for thought.

No matter if its BsAs, NY, London... Use common sense and be carefull! Try and blend in if you can and keep aware of what's happening around you. Have fun!
