Quick info
About Clives Barbers
Clives Barbers is a barber shop on Abbey Street in Accrington, working on a walk-in basis. The team cuts short back and sides, and the shop takes children's haircuts alongside those for adults. The waiting area is small, and it can fill up enough that a wait builds at busier times. Customers looking for a straightforward cut without booking ahead can call in directly, with the compact space keeping the shop close quarters when trade picks up.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return above all for the haircut itself, with one calling a short back and sides the freshest around and a woman with short curly hair saying a barber cuts it brilliantly. Close behind is the welcome for families, where a parent and a grandparent describe a patient, friendly approach with children that makes getting a child's cut easier. Several mention the chat with the owner and the other barber, one describing it as putting the world right while the cut gets done. Loyalty runs long, with one customer going since 2005 and another saying they never once had to complain. The one caveat is space. A four-star reviewer found the waiting area small and the shop really busy, and suggests being prepared to wait, though another reviewer did not have to wait at all. One customer who began going in the early 80s stayed for over 40 years, stopping only when his wife took over cutting his very short hair.

“I started going to Clives in the early 80's when he was Clive and Martins and I carried on for over 40 years until my hair got that short my Mrs started cutting it. He was a great barber and never once did I have to complain. Accy will miss him. Good luck in your retirement Clive. PS: Has a rovers fan he was great but his politics left a lot to be desired....LOL..But it never stopped me liking him even though he was wrong most of the time......”
