This is my first post, and sorry if it's in the wrong section.

I am trying to find a good Barber Shop in Portland Or. That can cut an old style hair cut...does anyone know of any?...first hand experience please, no google-fu.

Thank you!

Ok, this isn't Google-Fu, but in the interest of full disclosure, I've yet to have my hair cut there.

Out in Northwest, sort of on the DMZ between the Pearl and 23rd Districts, there is a store called Este's. It's in the Glisan Center (oddly enough, on NW Glisan, between 16th and 17th Avenues) and they sell menswear. But inside the store, they've what may be a functioning bar and a small barber shop. Caveat again is that I've never been there, but it seems like a place that might actually know what's going on. The Portland-centric issue of Classic Style recommended a place down on 6th (or so?) whose name escapes me at the moment; I'll try to remember to check when I get home. MK apparently thought well enough of it to give mention!

My Fella recommends the Antique Barber Shop in Tigard on Main Street in old Tigard, which is where he goes. This is truly a local barber shop with a mother and daughter barbering duo who have been practicing there trade since forever. If you want that vintage look bring them a photo of what you would like for example my fella wanted an F. Scott Fitzgerald haircut (he brought in a photo) and they accomplished is wonderfully.
