With a pool table and ping-pong table and a dart board hanging on the wall, Trim offers more than just your ordinary hair cut.

Imagine a barbershop with 10-point buck heads on the wall, a well-equipped pool table, eight televisions all tuned to Sports Center and eight different types of complementary beer. Trim, the new barbershop on Ogletree Road, is a man’s dream come true.

“We’re not a salon, that’s too girly. We like to call ourselves an upscale barbershop,” said Trim owner Justin Koenn.

Trim is anything but girly, the man cave atmosphere of Trim makes it an enjoyable place for any guy to get a haircut.

“It’s a fun environment,” Koenn said. “If you have to wait, it isn’t boring. You won’t be just staring into space.”

It would be nearly impossible to get bored in this barbershop. From the ping-pong table to the dart board hanging on the wall, Trim offers more than just your ordinary hair cut.

The $18 package includes a wash, shampoo, hot towel facial wrap, massage, style and your choice of beer, soda or water.

Military, firefighter, policeman, fraternity brothers and father/son discounts are available for $15. Also, a one time Facebook friend discount is available.

Aside from cutting hair, Trim offers face shaves, bald head shaves, beard trims, quick cleanups and waxing services are coming.

“We don’t charge a premium for a guy’s haircut; it’s a man’s haircut after all,” said Koenn.

Clients are warmly greeted by five female licensed cosmetologists. Each one of their six cutting stations is equipped with a television, providing entertainment even when getting one of their many services.

“We’re selling our atmosphere most of all,” said Koenn.

Koenn encourages clients to contribute to the shop's walls by bringing in their own deer heads, or other mounted animals to decorate. He also encourages clients to bring in pictures to be put on the shop's “brag board.”

“The goal is to make the place more macho,” said Koenn.

Trim also has a Kids Corner that provides toys, a DVD player and a white picket fence in case costumers want to play some pool.

Trim is open from 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday.

Walk-ins are welcome. For more information, call Trim at 821-6774.
