University Station Announces Spring 2016 Opening of 18|8 Fine Men's Salons

18|8 Fine Men’s Salons will soon bring one-of-a-kind grooming and styling treatments to men in Westwood and surrounding towns. The brand, renowned for its distinctive collection of upscale men’s services offered at moderate prices, has signed an agreement with husband and wife team, David and Andrea Floyd, to open a salon in Westwood at 143 University Avenue at University Station (www.shopuniversitystation.com). At 18|8, men can relax in the brand’s signature lounge area before their grooming services, which range from cuts and styling (modern and classic) to straight edge hot lather shaves, facials, man-icures, pedicures, scalp treatments and more. Customers may even purchase memberships that provide member perks such as complimentary clean-ups and other bonus grooming services. “We are offering men throughout Boston’s southern and western suburbs easy access to our high quality services in an environment designed just for them,” explains owner David, a seasoned entrepreneur. “The experience at 18|8 is unlike one at an ordinary hair salon or barber shop. When men walk into one of our stylish, masculine facilities, they are entering a place where they can feel relaxed and at home. For too long men who are seeking a premium grooming experience have been relegated to women’s salons where they often feel uncomfortable and out of place. At 18|8 we cater to men, and our professional stylist and barbers are specially trained on male grooming techniques. Our clients will feel confident knowing that when they leave our salon they will look and feel their best.” The new 18|8 Fine Men’s Salon at University Station will channel the essence of cool confidence directly to its discerning clientele. Leaving men looking their best – and feeling even better – 18|8 offers men the same transformative effect from which the name 18|8 comes. Team members at 18|8 are trained to take the time to learn about clients, their personalities and special needs, and then cater services to mirror their lifestyle choices. About 18|8 Fine Men’s Salons Claiming its name from the original formula for stainless steel, 18% chromium + 8% nickel added to steel, 18|8 Fine Men’s Salons offers its clients that same transformative effect – leaving men looking better, feeling better and performing better. Since launching in 2002, 18|8 has established itself as the only men’s salon catering to a discerning clientele with an upscale suite of hair care and salon services. 18|8 Fine Men’s Salons currently has 400 stores operating and in development.
