My husband and I both had bad experiences here. My hair was not cut the way I'd requested it to be, but he probably didn't hear me tell him what I wanted since he was too busy talking to everyone and taking phone calls. My husband had to return twice after his initial cut for them to fix it. They didn't do enough to appease him, and when he told them he'd never return, they didn't seem to care.

Okay, the haircuts here are ONLY $10! I admit I have not been brave enough to get a haircut here, but my dear hubby and my best friend get haircuts here and they both look good, so I can vouch for the quality of the haircut. Granted, they never take a long time with either of them, and sometimes there's a line, but you can not beat the price. It costs less than Supercuts!

Don't go to Becky! Becky, PUT DOWN THE SCISSORS AND BOTTLE OF DYE, before someone else gets hurt. I get angry every time I look in the mirror. My highlights are embarrasing. I have light brown hair, and there is a 1.5 inch thick bleach blonde streak near each of my ears. No other highlights showed up, just these skunk stripes on the sides of my head. I can't wear my hair back or in a headband until a PROFESSIONAL fixes it. My haircut isn't much better. I asked for a trim, and with inches of my hair on the floor later, my hair is DRAMATICALLY shorter. The length to my hair will grow back, but the corrective color I need is going to cost a couple hundred $. I've been a loyal client to Becky for a couple years, and her level of client service has gotten progressively worse leading up to this incident. She doen't ask how you want your hair , and if you tell her, she simply ignores you and does what she wants, saying she'll do what you asked next visit. She's so self centered, she doesn't have the CAPACITY to listen. When she talks to you, she consistently makes eye contact with HERSELF in the mirror. CREEPY. Hope the band works out Becky, cause you need a new day job.

I can say that this is the best gym in Philadelphia. I am a member of Philadelphia Sports Club, but did get a free trial 3 day offer for the sporting club. The place rocks. The locker rooms are immaculate, all the machines from the cardio, to the free weights, to the machines were brand new. Plus, there is a pool (indoor) and a basketball court. One thing that is unique is the ceilings are like 20 feet high! The major drawback and reason I did not join is that it costs twice as much as any other gym.

If I opened a hair salon, I can think of many names I might feel like calling it. I might call it Walter's Wondrous World of... Hair. Regardless, I would include *some* reference to 'hair' in there.
Saturn Club is a hair salon. It took me a couple of months to figure this one out - my friends would tell me they were going there, and I would always be thinking "hmm, I didn't know they were into strange clubs".
Since it's right next to the Penn campus, most patrons are students. They regularly advertise and offer discounts to students and pretty much anyone who lives in the area, so it can be a good deal. Regarding the actual quality of their cuts, I've seen a couple of my friends before and after, and I think an entirely respectable job was done.
(I realize that for some people, 'entirely respectable' is not what they want their hair to become. still.)

This is not your run of the mill barbershop. They offer manicures and tanning. Hey men have to look good too! This is one of my favorite shops to come too. It always smells so good and my barber is excellent all my hairs are perfect. I even sometimes get a nice shave in as well. Sometimes you have to wait awhile for a chair to be free but it is worth it. And besides there is always some sports programming or movie on the tv so the time flies by.

If you're looking for a cheap haircut or style and don't mind having students do your hair, this is the place to go. Women's haircuts start at only $9.50, and the students work under teacher supervision. It's not the most organized place (my stylist had to go borrow scissors from a fellow student) but they do a good job, and the price cannot be beat. You can everything here - nails, waxing, color, style, cut. I can't vouch for anything but the cut, though. You can also stock up on Aveda product while you're there.

Perfect Cut is across the street from the Verizon Building in Chinatown. This is one of the better hair salons in Chinatown, most hair dressers are multi lingual and cater to your needs. I have been going here for years and am always satisfied with
their service. Many I know have gone there since they were little kids and have been coming back.
The price is average and you usually do not need an appointment to get a haircut. The best part about the haircut is the head massage after they wash your hair. It is a relaxing experience to get head massage.
I would recommend this place to everyone.

Nick's Discount Store sells a little bit if everything. Mainly I come here for hair care. Everything is way to expensive in department stores. The prices are really low so there are very long lines. Some of the stuff is disorganized as well. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I think the place need to be dusted however because some of the shelves are a mess. I did get a cheap radio at Nicks i have had it for a number of years and it still works well.
