18|8 Fine Men's Salon Opening in Torrance: Introduces Entirely New Grooming Experience for Men

Local Torrance Entrepreneur to Welcome Affordable Men's Luxury Experience

TORRANCE, Calif. – Calling all men: there is a new salon in town waiting just for you.

18|8 Fine Men’s Salons announced today the Grand Opening on October 9th of the new Torrance location in the newly rebuilt Del Amo Fashion Center. 18|8 channels the essence of cool confidence directly to its discerning clientele, leaving men looking their best – and feeling even better. 18|8 is an upscale haven that understands and caters to the specific genetic styling and grooming needs of a man, providing a distinctive collection of upscale services. Haircuts, grey-blending and grooming are provided in semi-private areas, while they also have a private room for hair stimulating treatments.

“When men walk into 18|8 they will quickly realize this is not an ordinary salon. It is a retreat from the outside world where they can relax for a while and get pampered. 18|8 is filling a void for men’s hair and grooming needs that didn’t really exist before now,” said Jonathan Sadowsky, the salon’s owner. The salon is located close to Nordstrom on the first floor in the brand new section of the Del Amo Fashion Center. “At 18|8, men can feel comfortable, sit back and enjoy all that we have to offer – that is, premium services in a relaxing manly atmosphere. We are incredibly excited to be introducing this to gentlemen here in Torrance.”

At 18|8, men can relax in the brand’s signature lounge area with a cold beer and watch their favorite team on a giant flat screen TV before their grooming services; which range from cuts and styling (modern and classic) to straight edge hot lather shaves, facials, grey blending, scalp treatments and more. The 18|8 team specializes in high end customer service and takes the time to learn about its clients, their personalities and special needs, and then caters services to mirror their lifestyle choices. Guests may even purchase memberships that cover prepaid hair and grooming services.

Scott Griffiths, who launched 18|8 Fine Men’s Salons in 2002, has a track record of creating breakthrough brands.
