in 2001 as a two-chair operation tucked into the back of an antique and vintage furniture store, and it wore the label of an UNsalon on purpose: no velvet rope, no attitude at the door. Two decades later it is one of Old City&#8217;s best-known hair addresses, with Best of Philly nods for both cut and color and a long reputation as a safe, welcoming room for LGBTQIA+ guests.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Services\"><\/span>Services<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Cutting is the backbone: precision cuts, transformative cuts, dedicated curl cutting, buzz cuts, bang trims and children&#8217;s cuts. Color runs from single process and dimensional highlights to hair painting, redirective color and full technicolor work. The salon also does smoothing treatments, permanent waves, updos and event styling, extensions, and a serum program for thinning hair.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Technology_and_brands\"><\/span>Technology and brands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Lightening is backed by K18 bond repair, and Wella supplies both the Ultimate Treatment and the Pro Smoothfiller used to rebuild worn hair. Frizz control runs on the Cezanne smoothing system, a formaldehyde-free alternative to older keratin formulas. Extensions are applied with Great Lengths, and thinning hair is addressed with the Calecim topical serum protocol.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Team_and_stylists\"><\/span>Team and stylists<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The salon is built around a bench of senior hairdressers rather than one signature name, and it trains the next generation of Philadelphia stylists in-house. Individual specialties are published on the booking page, so a guest can choose by discipline: curls, precision cutting, vivid color or grooming.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Space\"><\/span>The Space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The furniture-store origin still shows in the aesthetic: reclaimed and vintage pieces, warm materials, and a room that reads as a living space rather than a clinic. It is deliberately unpretentious, with music and conversation rather than hushed reverence, and each chair has room enough for a long color session.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_its_for\"><\/span>Who it&#8217;s for<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>People who want a serious haircut without a performance of exclusivity. It suits curly and textured hair, guests planning bold or unnatural color, anyone made uncomfortable in a conventional salon, and men and non-binary guests who want grooming without assumptions.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Questions_and_answers\"><\/span>Questions and answers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Can I book online?<\/strong> Yes, appointments are made through the salon&#8217;s online booking page, with the phone as a backup.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long should I allow?<\/strong> Roughly an hour for a cut; hair painting or double-process blonding takes three hours upward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you cut men and children?<\/strong> Yes, both are standard, including buzz cuts and children&#8217;s cuts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I combine color with a cut?<\/strong> Yes, that is the normal pairing; mention it when booking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is a gift card available?<\/strong> Yes, gift cards can be arranged through the salon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Opening_hours\"><\/span>Opening hours<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Day<\/th>\n<th>Hours<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Monday<\/td>\n<td>9:00\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20097:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tuesday<\/td>\n<td>8:00\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20097:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Wednesday<\/td>\n<td>10:00\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20097:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Thursday<\/td>\n<td>10:00\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20097:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Friday<\/td>\n<td>10:00\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20096:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Saturday<\/td>\n<td>8:30\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20095:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday<\/td>\n<td>9:00\u202fAM\u2009\u2013\u20096:00\u202fPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<section id=\"entity-gallery\" class=\"padrino-entity-gallery\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photos\"><\/span>Photos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.philadelphianka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2026\/07\/american-mortals-philadelphia-1.jpg\" alt=\"American Mortals\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.philadelphianka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2026\/07\/american-mortals-philadelphia-2.jpg\" alt=\"American Mortals\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.philadelphianka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2026\/07\/american-mortals-philadelphia-3.jpg\" alt=\"American Mortals\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.philadelphianka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2026\/07\/american-mortals-philadelphia-4.jpg\" alt=\"American Mortals\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.philadelphianka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2026\/07\/american-mortals-philadelphia-5.jpg\" alt=\"American Mortals\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/section>\n<div id=\"comments\" class=\"comments-area wp-block-group\">\n<h2 class=\"comments-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visitor_reviews\"><\/span>Visitor reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol class=\"comment-list\">\n<li id=\"comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1\">\n<article id=\"div-comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment-body\">\n<footer class=\"comment-meta\">\n<div class=\"comment-author vcard\">\n<b class=\"fn\"><span>Oliver Feighan<\/span><\/b>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"comment-metadata\">\n10 June 2026<br \/>\n \u00b7 <span>\u2605 10.0\/10<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/footer>\n<div class=\"comment-content\">\n<p>It was my first time there and it was a great experience overall.
