18|8 Fine Men's Salons

The Barbershop Reinvented For Modern Men

A fresh cut, shave and proper grooming can do wonders for a man's confidence. 

"A man who looks and feels better about himself performs better,” declares Joe Bryan, owner of 18|8 Fine Men’s Salons in Chesterfield and Creve Coeur. 

Professional stylists and barbers at 18|8 also advise males -- ages 8 to 80 years -- regarding style, trends and grooming products. "We're a full-service salon who cater to men as trusted consultants," Joe explains.

Currently, Joe says many men have longer hair after living through seclusion of the pandemic, and are asking about ways to keep and style the length. Thus, they're helping them experiment with new looks. The moniker for the type of clientele transformations that Joe says happens at 18|8 is reflected from the combination of 18% chromium and 8% nickel “transformed” steel becoming enhanced and better-performing stainless steel, much like clients. 

Joe says men enjoy the salon's semi-private stations. "Your first visit to our salons involves an initial consultation during which your stylist will ask questions to help determine the best haircut and style for you. We take pride in how well-educated our staff and stylists are when it comes to offering clients advice, tips and solutions for hair care and grooming conundrums."

Professional barbers provide old school straight-razor shaves, Joe says, along with cosmetologists delivering facials to keep skin smooth and rejuvenated. He says they also offer manicures/pedicures, hair wax removal and scalp treatments to combat hair loss and thinning hair.

Additionally, they have father-son specials and online gift cards for celebrations or holidays.

"The 18|8 team gives everyone who steps through our door the time, attention and courtesy they deserve. We like to put big smiles on their faces," assures Joe.
