These guys know their stuff, friendly, attention to detail and professionalism is 100%. I went in with no idea what I wanted, they sorted me out with a fresh cut and shave, can't ask for much more than that. After so many visits to barbers leaving unsatisfied it was amazing to look at my cut and feel so happy with the way I look. Great work boys 🤙🤙🤙

This was my first time there today, I walked straight into a chair, no wait. Moey gave me a cut, don't let his beard and long hair throw you off, he hasn't had a trim himself in ages but he knows what he's doing! This guys attention to detail was incredible. One of the cleanest hair and beard cuts I've had. Much appreciated!
