The team at 18|8 understands that looking good is about more than just a haircut. An updated take on the traditional barbershop, the Pine Street spot offers a full spectrum of grooming services that help Manhattan men exude confidence, style and swagger. Before your service, unwind in the lounge, which is decked out with comfortable armchairs, a fully stocked wet bar and flat-screen TVs. Then, take a seat in a chair for an on-trend cut or a straight-razor shave. Also on offer are refreshing facial treatments and soothing “MAN-icures.” Whether you’ve got a big presentation, a job interview or just want to up your game, the seasoned grooming experts here have you covered.
