Bearded brothers trust me with their beards. Don't let just anybody near that beard.

I am the foremost beardsmith on the East Coast.

I do straight razor shaves and facials too.

 

 I love to cut hair ...and it shows!

My passion is to make you look the best that you can possibly be.

I style the hair of actors, models, and business people.

Everyday I hear "This is the best haircut I have ever had" and "Finally someone has brought Manhattan-style cutting to the Philadelphia area".

Mom has brown eyes. Dad has brown eyes. I have brown eyes.

My Dad cut hair. My Mom cut hair. For me cutting hair is almost genetic!

I played in a barber chair and fooled around with beauty & styling implements as a child. It seems that the shears and comb are natural extensions of my hands.

If anyone was "born to cut hair" it is me!

About my cutting: I have a signature cutting style which is a three-phase cut.

 Remove Bulk 

Create Shape/Style

Razor Finishing

I use several different shears for the various textures, lengths, and effects.

It's not uncommon for people to come in and say "Just do your magic". Although I appreciate that, I always I check with you several times throughout your cut for your feedback and approval.

Although I specialize in Men's Hair and Image Enhancement, I will work very selectively with women's styles after hours by appointment only.

To my "Silver Brothers"

One of my specialties is  people who are "going gray" or as I like to say have decided to transition from colored hair to their naturally beautiful silver, gray, or white. There are ways of cutting a persons hair who is transitioning or has finally gone all silver. This is not your grandma or grandpa's gray anymore. I have ways of texturizing and styling your hair that make it look contemporary and relevant. There are incredible products out there that can enhance that God-given silver. I'll share that with you in my consult.

What is this "CONSULT" that all the top stylists talk about?

Along with competent cutting and styling skills, the consult is something that stylists do to make themselves top stylists. The consult is the time I spend getting to know you, your preferences, your image goals, and your present image habits regarding grooming. When you sit in my chair, you'll hear me ask these questions:

What are you looking to accomplish today?

Are you happy with your present style?

Is there anyone who has a style that you particularly like?

What are your current styling habits?

What do you do when you get out of the shower? Brush? Comb? Condition? Blow dry? Finger Style?

Do you use any product? If so, what and why?

Do you have any "problem areas" or anything that frustrates you about your hair, scalp, current style?

Do you have any heart problems, health, skin, or scalp issues I need to know about?

Is there a significant other, spouse, or partner that has given you hair advice or opinions?

The "Don't you know your stylist is the most networked guy in the world" department
I cut everybody's hair. Who do you need to meet? I have connections. Just talk to me. Drop off the resume, biz cards, whatever.

Who comes to me?
Company presidents, Big Pharma and Biotech dudes, Unemployed guys (free haircuts till you get a job and especially the day before your interview), Judges, Celebrities, Actors, Models, The Guy Next door. Even guys just released from prison that need a new start and fresh look.
I don't care, everybody is a somebody in my chair.

My first review on YELP.COM years ago...:
George provided me with the ultimate styling experience. It is clear that providing this experience is his PASSION. I've always been very picky about haircuts, and never very happy with them. Until now. This is a place to meet and greet, network, talk shop, and most importantly get your hair cut- right. I came in a shaggy mess, and left with a nice retro Boardwalk Empire style cut. He took the time to study the bone structure of my head, so the hair cut would look right. Never had that before. After the cut- hot towels and a straight razor shave, and a nice head and shoulders massage. After getting my hair cut by barbers in New Orleans, Philly, Albany and Buffalo- I've found the best.

 

The Lost Art of Shaving

For ages men have sought the quicker easier versions of nearly everything. Unfortunately shaving is one of those things. Shaving is an art, and I’m sad to say a lost art. Our Dads, Grand Dads, and their Dads all shaved with what is called a straight razor. Usually made out of carbon steel in a foldable form where it folded into its own handle. The handle protected you when it was closed, but it when open; it gave leverage and ability to reach specific shaving angles. The razor was sharpened on a flat stone called a whetstone, with oil or water and then the edge was perfected on a razor strop. The strop is a flat leather strap usually hung on the side of the barber chair (remember?) and the razor is drawn back and forth on it to “polish” and sharpen the edge. There was a day when the straight razor was the thinnest blade used on a daily basis. The razor was stropped before every use to give it a “razor’s edge” so it would cut only hair and not skin when glided across the surface at the ideal angle.

Every man had a straight razor, a stone, and a strop. So did every barber. The popular phrase “A haircut and a shave” was said in every barbershop across the country.

Safety razors made their way into the consumer market for convenience, disposability, and I’m sure for good ole consumerism.

The straight razor was something you cherished and took care of, because when treated right, it took care of you.

Most barbershops don’t use the straight razor today or give “straight shaves” as it’s called, due to the possibility of blood born pathogens and disease. If a straight blade is used, it is a disposable straight blade in a handle and a new blade is used on every guest in that barber chair. That is what I do.

Go into most "haircut factories” and ask for a straight razor shave. You’ll get a wide variety of responses from “We don’t do them” to “What?”. If you can get one, you’ll experience possibly the best shave you’ve ever had in your life. I do a straight razor shave that will blow your mind. Make an appointment today!

You never hurry a shave. Maybe a haircut, but never a shave, and for obvious reasons. You recline the guest so their face is below your chest level. You apply a hot steamed towel to the face and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. This softens the beard hair. Then you apply a hot lather to the face with a badger hair brush or by hand. This also helps soften the hair that will be shaved, makes it easier to cut, and also lubricates the skin so the razor glides over the surface of the skin and doesn’t cut the skin. The razor is then glided at the precise cutting angle and short deliberate strokes are made. There is a protocol or “face map” that every barber has for themselves. The face is "sectioned" off and each section is shaved. The direction of the blade depends on the angles and contours of the guests face and the growth pattern or “grain” of the beard. If the guest has groomed facial hair such as a mustache or goatee, extra care is taken in detailing those areas to create perfectly groomed appearance. After all, that’s why you go to a barber isn’t it?

When the face is shaved, the barber must apply a concoction that is antiseptic (kills germs on the open skin), astringent (closes pores open by the heat) and heals the skin that has been opened by the heat and the blade. The average consumer aftershave does NOT do that because it’s just alcohol with fragrance. With that kind of product you end up doing the “Macaulay Culkin in Home Alone” impression. I am not into pain so I have discovered what is most effective is a combination of rum, witch hazel, aloe, spices, and bay leaves. It cools, soothes, tightens, and heals the skin.

I can’t think of a better gift for a guy than a straight shave gift certificate.. Now that’s a gift for the man who has everything! A new generation of young men rediscovering a lost art!

Treat yourself to a straight shave. I can also teach you in a private session as well where I can take my time and mentor you in the proper technique. That's $100 and includes a signature scissor cut, mini-facial, and shoulders-up massage. End result: Teach a man to shave ...and he's shaved for a lifetime. You can pass that on to your son or grandson.

NOW you know

Have pity on a brotherIf you can wash your hair BEFORE you come in, you'll get a better cut because your hair and scalp will be clean and the hair will lay more naturally. I get guys coming in with "bed-head" flat spots and then want me to perform a miracle. I'm good, but not that good. You would need Moses to part that hair. Wash and condition it or I will do it with my premium cut service..

Whats new with me?
I believe that learning is a life-long process and have over one thousand hours of continuing education beyond my Masters degree. I have the same attitude about education in the hair industry. I just finished an advanced course on "texturizing" hair. Texturizing makes your hair look three dimensional with those groovy grooves and valleys, kind of like your wife or girlfriend just ran her fingers through it. A preferable look for men.

No helmet heads or comb-overs allowed anymore.

Last but not least: The Wife/Girlfriend Department

You've asked. Now you'll receive... "How to give her a pedicure"

The reality is that she won't believe you want to actually do it ...or can do it.

Don't worry brothers. I got your back on this one.

Get a wash basin and fill it up with warm water with a little cleansing soap or shampoo in it. Add it after you fill the basin up so you don't have all bubbles. Also put in a few drops of essential oil in it. Lavender, Rosemary, or Peppermint are great. You know her preferences.

Have her sit in her favorite chair or sofa in the living room. Maybe have a movie on that SHE picked out. She is on the chair, you are sitting on the floor with a towel on your lap. You roll up her pants or maybe she is in her robe. You have her put both feet in the basin. The warmth will feel good. You wash her feet with your hands and massage them under the water. You may want to scrub her nail beds with a small brush going across her nails and also towards the ankle. You are pushing the cuticle, that is now softened, back towards the joints. Remember now this is the woman that God gave you. She is your gift. Even the way you scrub reflects that. In the back of your mind you know this may be slightly humbling but you are honored to do this. Her cuticles are not the only thing being softened at this point. Hearts get softened when feet get washed. This part is the "work", but the "funner" part happens later. You are doing for her what she cannot do for herself. Now you take a foot out of the water, and you take a handful of coarse kosher salt and lightly scrub the top and bottom of her foot, focusing on the heels and dryer parts. This exfoliates and removes dead skin. There are also commercially prepared salts with oils and fragrances that you can buy as well, but I have found that common household ingredients are wonderful too. After you do both feet, now cut her nails. Basic rules: Nails are cut straight across with the clippers and then file with a nail shaping file found in any store. Push back the cuticle with a cuticle tool or even a popsicle stick. Keep saying the word "gentle" in your head and that will guide your actions. Now after you have cut and filed over the tub, dip her feet in the water to "clean" off any clippings or residue. Now one at a time take a foot and put menthol shaving cream all over the foot. This is amazing and has a cooling effect on her feet. Let it stay on her foot a few minutes then dip again.

Now dry her feet off and wrap each one in a towel while you go and empty the basin.

When you return, you can get up on the sofa with her. She is now sitting sideways and has her legs on your lap. You have a towel on your lap. Now you will put moisturizer or oils on her feet. Wipe off any excess. Maybe at this point you can put athletic socks on her to keep her feet soft while you finish watching the movie.
There's a good chance you may not be able to finish the movie, wink, wink.
I am not responsible for anything that happens after that, lol.

Cheers!

Strange Things Guys Do With Their Hair

The Televangelist Look

The Comb-over

As my street sign says "Come near me with that flippin comb-over and I'll cut it off" is only partly in jest.

One of the things I hate to do is to perpetuate dysfunctional hairstyles. So many guys that are losing their hair go through all kinds of "gyrations" trying to make three hairs look like five hairs. Please men, the reality is ..it doesn't look good. It's like the emperor's new clothes. Everybody is afraid to say something ...but I'm not. Even with little hair, I can rock out a great style for you to "free you from the tyranny of a bad hairstyle". Enough of the windsock, I'm begging you. This is where a GREAT stylist can help you with options. This is where an effective consult is important. The right stylist will help you become the handsome-est you can be.

If George Clooney was bald...

The Shaved Head

Guys that are losing their hair get this shaved head thing going on sometimes. It is only attractive on about 10% of the men that do it. And when it looks good, it is awesome. Heads are funny things. They have bumps, valleys, ridges, points, dips, and can look like a topographical road map. Yeah, I know you save money by doing yourself, but it looks dumb. Unless you're auditioning for a roles as Mr. Clean, a circus strong man, or a Hills Have Eyes remake, don't shave your head. As a professional that is intimately close to hundreds of heads on a regular basis, I have an eye for what looks good on a man and a shaved head is not one of those things. The perfect solution is a buzzed shadow...but NOT all one length. It needs to be tapered or "faded" at the nape and around the ears. Combined with a shadow beard, it is a rockin' look that goes well with jeans and t-shirt or a tux. It is sharp, clean, and your woman will love it, believe me. Wives and girlfriends give me feedback all the time.

The Wrong Color or Any Color

As you know I am a gray/silver fan. Nothing looks sillier than a mature guy with "elvis black hair". Throw in a comb-over or some dysfunctional style and you have the perfect combo for anxiety and perpetual dissatisfaction. IF you color, go with a shade or two lighter than your normal natural color. And keep up with it I'm begging you. Gray roots on a guy are not very attractive. There's a reason why women get a cut and color in the same visit. There's also a reason why they get it done professionally. The "home depot do-it-yourself" philosophy of coloring your hair, looks exactly like that....like you did it yourself. The best solution is a blended color, not a total cover. Very few men over 30 have all one color. If you decide to transition to gray, please consult with me. I can help you with a texturized scissor cut that you will LOVE and be thankful for. Your life will change.

Hair Pieces

In my humble opinion, I rarely or never see a  hairpiece I like. The minute someone says "That's a great hair piece" , it kind of defeats the purpose of having a hair piece. If you know someone who is considering one, please have them consult with me. I can show them natural options they will be so happy with

Product Review

For my silver brothers and sisters, I recommend a blue shampoo once a week. There are many brands. I prefer the bluer ones over the violet ones. Shampoo with it once or twice a week and it makes your gray appear more silvery, which is very, very attractive. For white hair, it replaces the yellowish tint with a brighter whiter hue. I have used everything from American Crew, the generic from Sally Beauty Supply, and my new favorite is Jhirmack available in Walmart of all places for $3.50 a bottle. It'll last you six months if you use it twice a week and co-wash on the other days.

What are clients saying about me?

"I finally found my new stylist. You just instinctively gave me what worked best for the look I wanted. I loved your consult. No one ever did that with me and I loved your product and styling recommendations"

Steve

"Damn, George ...you're good"

Brad

"Whenever I have a press conference or am getting new headshots or a big audition, you are the only one I trust with my hair"

Frank

The Wife/Girlfriend Department

If you've been a fan of my writing in the past, you know I like to mention things in "threes". The holy trinity of beauty is hair/skin/smile

Teeth need to be tight/white/bright

Muscles need to be Toned/Lengthened/Hydrated

But there are exceptions to everything

This month's topic is a "four"

What does it take to not only get a woman, but keep a woman?

Getting a woman is the easy part. Keeping them may not be so easy for many men.

In my "research" ....I have found these to be a great combo

1.) A man needs to be handsome. That doesn't mean he has to look like George Clooney or (fill-in-the-blank). He needs to be as handsome as HE can be. That means groomed well, styled appropriately for his age and lifestyle. Like the ZZ Top song once said, "Every woman's' crazy about a sharp dressed man". You don't have to be a walking designer model, just neat, clean, and put together in a way that exudes class, comfort, and confidence.

2.) A man needs to be charming. Not the phony fake kind of charm, but the genuine "find something nice to say" type no matter what. There's never a downside to being a gentleman, using manners, holding a woman's chair for her, walking on the outside of the sidewalk with her, standing up when she enters the room, and taking your hat off when you meet her. Tell your woman she is beautiful. I never let that one slip with the woman I love or even my female friends. Many times my female friends will say "George, you are the only one who ever tells me that". Guys, get the hint.

3.) A man needs to be FUN. Let the humor flow! Even if it is an occasional bad joke. Notice I said bad joke, not dirty joke. Fun does not mean foul mouth. There's never a downside to clean language with your woman. Tame that tongue and show her some love by NOT having a foul mouth. It will not go un-noticed. Take her out dancing. Yes guys, take her out dancing. Yeah, it may make you uncomfortable. Yeah, you may dance like the drunk white uncle at a wedding, but who cares? No one is judging you but yourself so get over it. She will love you for it. Do it regularly, lose weight together, sweat it out, have fun, laugh and smile while you're out, drink plenty of water along with the adult beverages if you drink. Then...get ready for that love life to be improved. Trust me on that.

4.) A man needs to have purpose and make money with that purpose. You can have all the above, but if there is no cash flow, the above is very limited in it's ability to keep things going. Money is a beautiful thing. The stress of more cash going out than coming in is not a good feeling. Do whatever it takes to make that happen. SHE is worth it and will notice it. If you have that awesome cash flow already, then focus on the other things mentioned. Women like security and don't want a "dependent". I have experience with this one. Suck it up and do whatever it takes, even if it means taking a new direction in career, part-time work, or business idea. The key word in this concept is ACTION, not ideas. Action creates cash flow, not ideas alone.

I hope this helps!...and stay in touch!

Proverbs 20:29
The glory of young men is their strength, but gray hair is the splendor of the old.
Proverbs 16:31
Gray hair is a crown of glory 

My friend Susan Hersh and I.

Susan is one of the top commercial actor models in the world known for her distinctive silver locks. She is the face and hair of Pantene, Sephora, and other well known brands.

GRAY SILVER WHITE and SALT & PEPPER Hair

I have a great reputation for specializing in a few things. Straight razor hot towel shaves, eyebrow shaping and painless hair removal and exfoliation in women, and also being the Sultan of Silver. Yep, I specialize in the cutting, styling, and care of gray, silver, white, and salt & pepper hair.

From a commercial I did this winter

When men start going gray, the grays start to pop out of the rest of the hair because they are a completely different texture than your normal colored hair. They most likely are a little coarser, behave differently with conditioning and especially with grooming. Each man’s graying pattern is different but usually similar to the graying pattern of a parent or grandparent when they went gray.

 

There are many varieties or shades of gray. Most fall into one of four categories: Gray, Silver, White, and Salt & Pepper.

Once you start transitioning, it keeps going until the day you die, even if you go all gray it still changes various shades as you age.

The most popular commercial character of all time is gray ;) 

I started going gray in my late twenties around the temples and sideburn area. By thirty-five my sideburns were completely white. Some consider this to be a nice look. I had “Paulie Walnuts hair” by the time I was forty. All white on the sides and the rest was dark. In my forties, the gray started coming in salt and pepper throughout the rest of my head. Now in my early 50’s, it is all white gray on sides and increasingly graying everywhere else. Now the hair is softer and doesn’t have the coarseness it did years ago. When properly conditioned, it is soft as silk. The same with the hair on my face. My beard is completely white like Dr. Andrew Weil and very soft.

With BEN FM radio personality Marilyn Russel at the "Mile of Meet" where I was one of Philadelphia's most eligible bachelors....a gray one that is.

Being a hair professional and a more natural-based product fan, I am a fan of silver hair in men and women. I think silver haired women are sexy and confident looking. I am not one that thinks it makes one look older or detracts from ones beauty or handsomeness.

A commercial Poconos tourism ad I did

Silver, gray, white, and salt and pepper hair have different needs than dark hair. The biggest problem with this hair is that is needs to be texturized more during the cutting process in order to avoid the “silver helmet head” look. This natural silver hair needs grooves and staggered layers to give it depth and dimension. This kind of hair especially looks great when finger-styled as opposed to a brush or comb. Out of the shower, a coarse brush is best so as to not pull any hair out. I like the idea of combing the hair all back then using fingers to bring some down or sweep it to the side. If a hard visible part is desired then obviously a comb will do the trick. I tend to be a towel dry or air dry fan. If you’re going to use a blow dryer, then warm or cool air is best. Bottom line: heat damages hair.

Gray, even messed up gray hair, has done well for me in my commercial acting career!

As far as product goes, I like to use a cleansing as opposed to foaming shampoo. Wen products and Hair One products are good. I also like to use a violet shampoo once a week to avoid brassiness and yellowing of the silver. Hair absorbs whatever you put on it. If there is even a hint of color to a product, the hair will absorb it. As far as grooming agents, I like to use anything thicker, pastier, and waxier and only a little bit. A half of a pinky nail is plenty for most heads. One jar of paste, wax, or moulding clay can last a whole year.

A commercial I did as a bartender

Silver is a great color. It looks great with your skin, reflects light, shows character, and wisdom. If you have it, rock it.

Come see me, your silver, gray, and white authority in Philadelphia.

Product Review

For my silver gray friends, I recommend a tinted shampoo once a week. There are many brands. I prefer the bluer ones over the violet ones. Shampoo with it once or twice a week and it makes your gray appear more silvery, which is very attractive. For white hair, it replaces the yellowish tint with a brighter whiter hue. I have used everything from American Crew, the generic from Sally Beauty Supply, and super high end shampoos HOWEVER my new favorite is Jhirmack Silver Plus. It'll last you a long time because it is so concentrated. A little goes a long way. You'll see a difference from the first time you use it! They have a great line of Silver/Gray hair care products that I really love and will review for you in my next newsletter. For men with silver, gray, or white beards, use it on your beard, mustache, goatee the way I do. You will love it. Look at all my pics in this blog and see for yourself!

Proverbs 20:29 says The glory of young men is their strength, but gray hair is the splendor of the old. And Proverbs 16:31 “Gray hair is a crown of glory”.

Enjoy that beautiful crown guys!
