Straight Razor Head Shaves

October 6th, 2009

Joe’s Barbershop in San Francisco specializes in Straight Razor Head Shaves, as well as AWESOME men’s haircuts. For a short while we had problem finding high quality disposable blades.  The manufacturer of the good blades we used was purchased by another manufacturer, and the quality of the blades dropped below our standards.

But we now have a fantastic solution. It is the Feather “No-Sharpen” Straight Razor system from Japan. These are amazing blades that give a fantastic shave.

See you soon for your tight cut or close shave!

Appointments are recommended for head shaves.

BARBERSHOP READING SERIES – 09-05-09

August 31st, 2009

BARBERSHOP READING SERIES

BRS31

In honor of September’s annual Folsom Street Fair, “the granddaddy of all leather festivals,” and something of a High Holiday in San Francisco’s gay community, our theme of the night will be “Chains of Love!” This month’s Barbershop Quartet includes:

KATIE CROUCH whose debut novel, GIRLS IN TRUCKS, about Southern debs gone bad, was a New York Times Bestseller. is winsome.

KEMBLE SCOTT is the author of the bestselling novel SOMA, finalist for the national Lambda Literary Award for debut fiction. His new novel, THE SOWER is a twisted, page-turning thriller about a San Francisco bad boy who becomes the sole carrier of a manmade virus that appears to be the cure for all diseases. But the only way to pass the cure to others is through sex. Our unofficial house musician,

WOLF LARSEN, wowed everyone at our opening event this past June with her beautiful voice. Rumors of a newly released EP have spread, so bring a few extra bucks and you might get a copy.

And finally JANE JUSKA, whose ad in the New York Review of Books—“Before I turn 68, I would like to have a lot of sex with a man I like”—brought her undreamed of success. She wrote two books about that search: A ROUND-HEELED WOMAN and UNACCOMPANIED WOMEN.

BARBERSHOP READING SERIES: July 11 @ 8pm

July 9th, 2009

The debut event was amazing, and you can join us for the next event in the Barbershop Reading Series. Normally the events will happen the first Saturday of every month, but because of the Fourth of July holiday, it will be this Saturday July 11

The evening will feature readings by a couple members of the Barbershop Writing Group, a workshop running in conjunction with the Barbershop Reading Series and led by series host Michael McAllister. Click here for more info on the Barbershop Writing Group.

Pete Kushmeider gave up pursuing a fortune in high tech in order to write, blog, and dote on his husband and partner of 23 years. He writes about the diversity of people and experiences that are the beating heart of everyday San Francisco. His stories have been published in the SoMa Literary Review.

Chris Jensen is a marketer by day and a freelancer by night. A former contributor to Out Magazine, he currently writes for SF Weekly when he’s not struggling to write page 2 of his novel.

Our musical guest, Bay Area-based singer-songwriter Kate Isenberg, combines her intricate guitar style and soulful, clear voice to create a very San Francisco form of storytelling folk-pop. Her album THE TIME COMES ON HUMMING TRACKS has been featured on KFOG’s Acoustic Sunrise, and was named one of 2007’s top three female singer-songwriter albums by the Indie Acoustic Project, a nationwide contest whose past winners include Vienna Teng, Allison Krauss, and Greg Brown. Check out her MySpace page for music samples.

Our featured author will be K.M. Soehnlein, author of THE WORLD OF NORMAL BOYS, which won the Lambda Literary Award for Gay Men’s Fiction, and YOU CAN SAY YOU KNEW ME WHEN. He will be reading from his novel-in-progress, a sequal to THE WORLD OF NORMAL BOYS. He teaches in the MFA writing program at the University of San Francisco.
