Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return above all for the haircut, with a fade and beard trim named most often, and many describe the barber as a friendly, lovely bloke who takes the time to learn what each customer wants. Close behind are the good conversation and a price several call good. One reviewer says this is the only place they know of that does a proper wet shave with a razor, wet shaving foam, towel and steam, and adds that the neck shave, nostril wax and ear flaming round out a complete service. The shop is described as tidy and clean, and one visitor notes it stayed cool during a hot spell. Loyalty runs long: one reviewer has gone for over nine years, another travels from Fishponds, and one comes every week. Several say they highly recommend it and call the team professional. One regular says the staff remember their name even after a long absence.

“Love this barbers! Lovely guy, always good conversation and gives a really great beard trim and haircut. This is the only place that I'm aware of that does a proper wet shave with razor, wet shaving foam and also towel and steam. He'll also shave your neck, wax your nostils and flame your ears - compete service to high qaulity and for a good price.”
