THE BEST BARBER IN MAITLAND
April 15, 2021
When it comes to our personal grooming and styling, we want to look our best and we want the best barber in the business to do it for us. Finding the best barber in Maitland is as easy as asking Google for the “best barber near me”. Rightly at the top of the search results is Barber Industries, located in Stockland Greenhills and managed by proprietor and Master Barber Amir Kirimkhani.
What makes your offering so good and what separates your barbershop from the plethora of choices in the Maitland region.
We have an amazing team here, all highly skilled barbers and all working together to raise the bar collectively. We have a real traditional barbershop culture. Aesthetically speaking, we actually have a very traditional store fit out and we also operate without bookings in that old school, walk in only way. It creates a great atmosphere and a good vibe. I believe it is the combination of traditional values and a modern service that creates something special, the balance of the old and the new with a very talented team.
Stockland Greenhills is a huge shopping precinct, the location of your barbershop is notably convenient, is this important to your clients?
Well I can not speak for our clients, however being here in Stockland Greenhills makes us very accessible and that is very important to us. When you look at the collection of stores and services here, you see a centre with the size and scope of a regional hub. This location makes the barbershop easily accessible to a broad section of the community. Being a part of this network of retailers means that it doesn’t take a special trip to reach us, people can come to Stockland Greenhills for several things and a haircut can conveniently be one of them.
Six barbers with their nose to the grindstone, is a busy barbershop a good barbershop?
It speaks for itself no? It’s supply and demand, our crew is the best in the business and that is why you see it so busy here. Okay, to use an analogy, there are two restaurants, one is busy with a long queue of people waiting for tables, the other one is empty, which restaurant do you trust to to eat at? Ah huh, so which barbershop are going to trust for your haircut? Yes we get busy and sometimes there is a queue but it is all part of the atmosphere and a sign that the service is worth waiting for.

We are in a day and age where there has been somewhat of an explosion of brands into the men’s grooming space. Instead of this being a good thing, it has led to a market over saturated with inferior products. To add to the confusion of it all the word ‘pomade’ is seemingly used to refer to any men’s hair product that comes in a tin. So with that said, it’s best to do some due diligence and get an understanding of what’s what and what’s good in the styling space for your hair.
