I'm there once every three weeks. They've since closed the upper level, which became a store front and now exclusively use the lower level.

@chalklounge Still going, but in the early 70's they had lines around the block. Enjoy your haircuts.

stunningly what's the point of a shaved head - i mean really. hair can be such a sexy, wrapping to ones head. human body has more than enough flesh no need for a shaved head but whatever

@ticket2  Another county heard from. Thanks for your interest.

PS I had Holly on my TV program Videowave in 1983. She was on with her London buddy Lene Lovich. I had already been smitten by Miles Away and Tell that Girl to Shut up. So Brooklyn but so London.

I remember watching this on TV. Mustve been about 1984 or 85. I started going to Astor Place in 1981, I had tons of cheap haircuts with brilliant to average results there for 10 years.

If you need a regular haircut,skin-fade,taper-fade,m­ilitary cut,afro,faux-hawk, mohawk,buzz cut,a classic hot towel shave or just a clean up, ask for DANNY THE BARBER a.k.a. DONNIE.

WARNING: he's always busy (best to make an appointment or visit for a free consultation) NO LONG HAIR!

I saw Holly and the Italians open for the Ramones at the old Wollman skating rink in the summer of 1979 - I think it was the Dr. Pepper Music Festival
