About Akos Barbers
On High St in Carshalton, Akos Barbers is a barber shop open daily. Several barbers work in the shop, with chairs by the entrance, in the middle, by the till and by the window.

Customer Review Summary
The complaints cluster around the middle chair. One reviewer says a trim turned into half the length gone, chunks missing from the beard and a fade taken down to skin to repair it, adding that phone calls interrupted the cut. Another says the barber skipped the comb and cut without attention to detail. A third reports an uneven fade and says the barbers were rude and offended when the problem was raised. A parent says their son's cut was one bad haircut too many. One reviewer also says card payment is inconsistent, so cash is needed on some days.

“I have been going to Akos for 3 years now and it used to be good. But they have a new staff normally on the middle chair who is really awful at his job. He cuts hair without any attention to detail. He made me look like a dork. He was shivering the whole time and didn’t even use a comb to make sure the hair was cut consistently. Never will I come back here again. Also this is 2025, I don’t know what’s with all these Turkish barbers who hide their card machine and refuse to take card payment. People like me use card to pay due to convenience, I don’t want to carry around lose change and as a business you should cater to customer needs. If you would want to go there make sure you locate an ATM and take some cash with you because one day they will accept card one day they won’t, it really depends on their mood.”

“Been going to Akos for years, but my sons cut today was 1 bad haircut too many in recent months. The guy getting his hair cut before us had ages spent on him and his cut looked good, in fact the barber spent more time shaving his neck than …”

“Avoid the barber in middle chair! After having several haircuts from Akos and being very satisfied with all my cuts I went for my monthly trim. I thought I would try the barber who sits in the middle chair a go as my usual barber was busy. The barber pretty much ruined my hair and beard, cutting way too much off. He was careless and rushed the cut, aswell as taking phone calls through out. I asked for a trim and he basically cut half my length off aswell taking chunks out of my beard. After leaving the barbers i went home to wash my hair and beard, I could seem the damage. My beard with butchered and blended so badly, for my fade it's seemed like a 0.5 all over. I went to another barber in the area who fixed both my hair and beard. He explained that the Akos barber went too deep into the beard taking too much off making it uneven. The fade had to be taken down to skin to make it look even. It's shame as the other 2 barbers in the shop are excellent, the one by the entrance and the one by the till. I won't be returning and will be using the barber who fixed Akos mistakes. It's takes one bad haircut to lose a regular customer.”

“Always use this place for my son's haircut. Ozzy is my son's favourite barber. Have been using Akos for about 6years and will continue to go there. Recommend!”
