18/8 Fine Men’s Salon in The Woodlands is refreshing its service menu and will reveal improvements for male hair coloring and facial treatments in 2016, owner John-Michael Stern said. 

The salon offers a full range of grooming services to an exclusively male clientele in a private setting unlike most parlors in the area, Stern said. Services include body waxing, manicures, therapeutic scalp treatments, hair coloring, facials and hairstyling.     

“We don’t just put a stylist or barber in a chair and tell them to give a haircut,” Stern said. “We have a specific methodology that we follow. It follows a complete curriculum designed specifically for the needs of men.”

Since opening in Hughes Landing in October, Stern said the salon has appointed stylists to nearly all 11 presidential barber chairs. He said the shop recently hired a barber who offers classic shaves.

Stern said his salon is the premiere—and the only—location in the Greater Houston area. He said the franchise has also been steadily expanding.
