One of the many eye-catching small businesses in Mountain View downtown is its barbershop, Dandies, located on the east side of Castro Street in the rear of the alleyway between Rumble Fish and Sakoon. I go to length to describe the location because it is indeed inconspicuous. The barbers are young, but talented. They provide full service men's beard and men's hair styling, including authentic straight razor blade shave. The service is careful and unhurried it is probably best for clients to adopt a corresponding mindset of ease and leisure at this locale. Not surprisingly, Dandies has been open late for business some nights at random, providing men's haircuts and shaves. It is during my own daily scrambles to and from my car in the rear parking lot when I observe these peculiarities of the barbershop! The atmosphere is welcoming and the barbers are hospitable. Complimentary drinks, coffee, edibles, snacks, alcoholic beverages, and cigars abound here. Even the occasional improvised BBQ party --flush to the outdoor side of Dandies' own wall --has not escaped my notice. As of Spring 2021, the barbershop has become quite bustling with clients, many of whom are probably emerging from the pandemic lockdown with long-neglected beards and mustaches! First-time clients should expect an atmosphere rife with masculinity, and reminiscent of men's old-fashioned barbershops. However, I have recently observed at least one female barber providing haircuts and shaves at Dandies. This likely will help to bring a much-needed woman's touch!

" What a great place! I was able to get an appointment easily. Got a haircut, beard trim, & a shave from Mireya. It was a fantastic experience. He took his time & was very attention to detail oriented. This place has only been open for two weeks but I see great things in its future. I will definitely be back. "
I returned here for a haircut and a line-up trim by Singh and was mighty impressed by his service. I had no hiccups while making the appointment online and Will patiently went through the details of my ask and clearly articulated his thoughts through the cut.
It's worthy to call out that this place only provides service through prior appointments and first-time folks get a ~10$ discount.
"I couldn't have asked for more than this. Notifer is the next killer app."
I discovered this place during Covid and I appreciated that they didn't balk when I, a female, came in and asked to have my long hair chopped off and cut into a short, neat, easy to care for during a pandemic haircut. I can't recall who cut my hair the first time, but I liked the cut enough to come back. Just last week got my haircut here by a different person, Mireya, and he was great! In addition to being super sweet and easy to talk to, he did a great job and I was so impressed by his perfectionism and attention to detail. Thanks Zel! I'll definitely be back again.
This is a fantastic little barbershop. Old school, high quality & laid back. I have a long beard and Singh has been trimming it for a couple of years now. He's very precise, and easy to work with.
