    I could not have been happier with my entire experience getting my haircut at Sam’s. He was amazing! How many people do you know who have been at the same job in the same location for 72 years? That’s Sam…..he’s a one of a kind, amazing human, who gives a great haircut and experience.

    Sam has been in the Chrysler House cutting hair since 1953. He will be 95 in May. Still had reasonable priced cut and great experience. Hard to find a straight razor finish anymore, with hot towel.

    IF YOU ARE A GUY AND NEED A HAIRCUT, GO HERE! Sam is an absolute beast and has been cutting hair for over 50 years. He only cuts men’s hair, only uses cash and appointments can only be made over the phone but his service is the best in Detroit. I believe each cut is $20, which is incredibly cheap compared to other places in the area. I honestly cannot reccomend him enough, the quality, service, price and overall vibe was absolutely fantastic. Thanks Sam!
