Gaslight Hairstylists

I’ve been going to Rich and Ron for 15 years and am so happy to have been their customer. A real barber is hard to find and these guys are tops and always enjoyable.

Hard to find, harder to beat! Got a great cut from Rich and couldn’t be happier! Hair looks great, fair price, great conversation, and done in 30 minutes!
Easy as pie, showed him a pic of what I looked like after a good haircut a year back and voila!
They are in the Zurich building by the mall. Park in one of the Atrium parking spots.

Good haircut and light conversations. No pressure hair cutting. Price has raised to $ 16 not including tip.

My husband has been going to Ronnie for almost 20 years and he would never go anywhere else. He always gets a great hair style and comes home looking handsome, everytime! He says the shop has a great atmosphere and that Ronnie and Richie are funny guys, but they know what they are doing. My 4 year old nephew has been getting his hair cut here too. He loves his ‘soldier hair”. Great place and great people.

I walked in with an overgrown head of hair, and walked out with an extremely satisfying haircut. All I had to do was sit down in Ron’s chair, and he got straight to work without me having to give any instruction; he seemed to instinctively know exactly what cut would work well.
I moved to this area about a year ago, and have been searching for a good location to get a haircut ever since. Well, the search is over, these gentlemen will see me in their chairs every month or so probably from now until I move out of the area (if ever).
It costs slightly more than the hair cut chains do, but for those extra couple dollars, you will receive a haircut that you will truly enjoy from the start, rather than one that has to «grow in» or just plain doesn’t look good on you.
Ron and Rich are extremely entertaining gentlemen, and I cannot think of the last time I received a haircut and was smiling throughout the entire experience.
I will wholeheartedly recommend any male in the Schaumburg area to go to these guys for a haircut, they clearly know what they are doing, and they do it well.

I’ve gotten the idea of going to a barber engrained into my psyche since I was a little kid. It’s hard to find a traditional barber these days, but Schaumburg seems to have at least one of everything, so I looked and found these guys.
I went to another place in the Schaumburg Hyatt Hotel before, but these guys are a bit closer, open longer hours, and are about $ 5 cheaper.
I can get a great haircut and pay $ 16 (including tip). Check them out, they seem to be free after work on weekdays, which is really convenient.
Ron and Rich are a funny pair of guys. After 3 visits, this is my new regular place.

I have been going here for the past 2 years and I’ve been extremely happy with my haircut every time. Both Ron and Rich take their time cutting your hair and the result speaks for itself

Best hairstylists for Guys, Both Ron and Rich have been styling hair since the time Elvis walked the Earth. Ron once told me that my hair talks to him and boy, it definitely does!!!

Hubby’s been going there every two weeks for the past 6 months or so. He couldn’t be happier. He used to go to those fancy salons where this 20 something girl who didn’t know what she was doing would give him a horrible haircut. Thank God that’s over! The way these two gentlemen cut hair just reminds me of barbers back home. You don’t find good barbers in America too often and we’re certainly happy we found these guys!

I highly recommend. Been using for a year, and very happy with every experience.

I have been going to these guys for years now. I will make an appointment usually a day in advance, but they are accommodating if I need it the same day. I always get the same cut, so my routine is pretty vanilla: I will walk in, sit down and they will start cutting, the usual haircut will be given, and we’ll have a random conversation, and I will leave with the same haircut every time.
I really like that these guys never mess up my natural hair-​line, and will take the time to give me the look I want. They always cost the same amount: $ 14 plus tip. I usually get my hair cut from Ron, but Rich is equally as talented, and have similar experiences with both of them.
There is always free parking available in front of the Zurich towers, and I will avoid the Woodfield traffic by taking Meacham to Woodfield to Plaza.

Never would have found this place if it were not for Unilocal.As the other reviewers have stated, it is in the lobby of a giant office building. Its a good barber shop and I will be going back. Ron and Rich were both very friendly. Obviously golfers. One thing Ive realized about haircuts is that I get a much better one from a guy whose been cutting hair for 40 years. If thats what youre looking for then this is your place. You need to park in the visitors spots by the three flags in front of the building. $ 14 cash only.

Don’t be a fool… go old-​school.
I grew up going to an old-​timey barber. Since then, I’ve trusted my mane primarily to barbers rather than hifalutin/​trendy salons or butchers at chain shops. So whenever I’ve moved or am out of town when I need a trim, I make a point to seek out a place with a striped pole outside and 2 – 4 old guys shooting the breeze inside. And that’s just what I found here!
Ron and Rich run a shop that possesses vintage charm without much effort. Their clean and simple storefront is located in the lobby of the Zurich Towers (this took me a bit to find at first; 1hr free parking on the north side of the building). They accept walk-​ins but also take appointments. $ 14 (plus tip) and a half-​hour got me a great cut along with the authentic, «barber shop banter» one would expect from such a place. (Also, it’s obvious that they’re golf-​nuts from their décor.)
Had I gone for the hot lather shave around my neck and ears, I probably would’ve given them a 5. But I needed to fit this in on my lunch break and time was running short. (Will update review next time I go in.) They also offer a wash/​shampoo if needed. There’s a shoe-​shine station set up, but I was told that their shiner recently left due to slow business. They also have a manicure station, but I didn’t inquire about it.
Bottom line: A great, cheap (by today’s standards) and quick cut from two old pros!

A real barbershop!
Now that I’m spending 8 – 5 in Schaumburg, I need a barber shop «out there.» No reason to sit in rush hour traffic to come back into the city for a haircut, when I can get a late cut in Schaumburg, then drive in.
Searching online, Gaslight was the only one that met my criteria: Open til 6pm and haircuts, not hairstyles. I got my first cut this week, from Ron, and am totally satisfied.
Gaslight has been there for 20 years, in the lobby between two high rise towers. The conversation is traditional barbershop talk, the copy of today’s Sun Times looks like it’s been read 30 times already, and no money has been wasted on décor. I love it.
