Every chair, the same figure. Card or cash.

Skin fade Down to the skin and blended up. Allow 45 minutes. $50
Beard trim Shaped and lined up. Oil if you want it. $30
Cut and beard Both in the one sitting, about an hour. $65
Hot-towel shave Straight razor, two hot towels, balm at the end. $55
Under 12s Tuesday to Friday, before four. $30
Tram 11 to stop 16, then two doors up from the laundrette. The door is the one with the list in the window.

Sitting down, start to finish

  1. Take the walk-in chair, or book a barber and a time online.
  2. Say what you want, or say how long it has been and let the barber decide.
  3. Pay what the board says. The next booking is up to you.

Same three chairs, same three barbers

Jamie Doyle bought the chairs off the barber who trained him, and kept the name on the window. Nell cuts Wednesdays and Saturdays; Ro took the shaves over in 2019.

You will be offered a coffee and that is the whole of the hospitality. The chair you get is the one that is free, and the price is the same whichever it is.

I’ve been going four years. Never booked once.

That is Dex. He has never once rung ahead.
Jamie, Nell and Ro. Whoever is free is the one you get.

Tuesday to Saturday. Sunday, never.

Book a chair and a barber, or ring the shop and somebody will look at the board and say how long.
