For the gentleman, there really is no substitute for reclining in a chair and having someone rub warm foam onto your face, is there? The manly men of River Oaks can rejoice, as V’s Barbershop — an old-school barbershop with black-and-white checkered floors and sturdy leather barber chairs — has opened up shop on West Gray in River Oaks Shopping Center. Proprietor David White says a trip to V’s Barbershop in Tucson, Arizona, where he received the best haircut of his life, inspired him to end his career in software sales and open the first V’s Barbershop outpost in Texas. In addition to traditional scissor haircuts and hot lather shaves, V’s offers face massages, beard and mustache trims, shoeshines and grooming products from American Crew, The Art of Shaving, Jack Black and V’s own line of shave gels and shave masks. Gearing up to get married? The Big Day, one of V’s many special grooming packages offered, includes a day of grooming for you and your groomsmen.
