Also he is really good with Kids Full Barber services available .

I've been going to Broomheads for the past few months, having tried some of the other barbershops…read morein the area first. I have to say, I certainly plan on continuing to go here. The premises aren't very big, as Broomheads shares "one unit" on Heaton Moor Road with a ladies hairdressers next door. They're separate businesses and separate premises, but neither are particularly large. There's space for several barbers, however whenever I've been it's just been the one guy - whose name eludes me at the moment. There's a sofa by the window for those who are waiting to be seen, but I've never been sat there for overly long - usually only around 10-15 minutes. In terms of pricing, a gents cut is a mere £9 which covers a myriad of styles and cuts. Prices for kids are slightly less. There's also a loyalty scheme, whereby if you have a card it gets stamped every visit and then your 6th cut is free. All in all, it's a good little barbershop and it's well worth a visit. Y'know, so long as you don't make me wait longer for a haircut...

No frills stuff this is all slap dash standard male cut short. Erm not a lot to say apart form that really? I could recount you with stories from my youth when my brother ran out of the hairdressers for his fear of having an itchy neck after his hair was cut.

I attempted to get my haircut here last Saturday 12th April 2025 but failed to do so due to a…read moremember of staff that was very lazy and very disrespectful. I called 10 minutes before to say I was coming at appropriately 6pm in the evening, 1 hour and 30 minutes before they closed and he said that was "okay". I then arrived and he said he was going to go to the toilet. I then said okay to this. He then took a long time, a further 5/6/7 minutes in the bathroom. I just waited for him and when he came out, he then said he would go for a cigarette but would come back and give me "good haircut". I again said okay. I waited another 5/6/7 minutes which was nearly 15 minutes in total and decided that this man had completed disrespected me and my time. I then walked out to leave and he goes "oh I can finish my cigarette and give you good haircut", I explained I needed to go as I didn't want any conflict but his behaviour was out of order and it's not the first he's behaved inappropriately. I won't be using this hairdresser again and they've lost a customer based on this extremely poor experience, which is anxiety inducing when you had a plan and go out of your way to get a haircut and someone wastes a lot of your time it's not right at all

AVOID. There is only decent barber at this place, the rest are jokers who either don't understand…read morewhat you're asking for or who don't care. I've been growing my hair for two years and I wanted the ends taken off, the useless guy who cut my hair ended up taking 1/4 of it off. Then he washed it after he'd already cut it, for no reason than to charge me an extra £3. Go to Mufti's in the City Centre, marginally more expensive (£7) but you leave with a decent haircut.

All I have to say attend greatly to men's grooming but this is my favourite. My local barbers for 15 years and the longest running in Rusholme. It does do discounts for students children and pensioners, but it's basic adult cut starts at just £8 and it does a full range of barbering including styling and wet shaves. They pay attention and take their time, so even a crew cut isn't just in and out! French, English and Arabic speaking it has lots of regulars. You don't need to book but you may need to wait.

Although absolutely tiny, sat there all forlorn on the point where Palatine road and Wilmslow road converge, inside it's like that 'space box' in which the Doctor fella drives female companions around the bends of space and time. Seriously, you'll wonder how they manage to fit in a small tub of American Salon hair cream never mind space for three hairdressing points, a reception, bathroom and mini kitchen. I'm convinced it's all done with smoke and mirrors but I'm too under the kosh of sharp scissors to ask about it. Apparently (I was told by staff this very week) this used to be a small depot for conductors being based as it is on the busiest bus route in Europe and not as most people assume a public convenience. Five years ago this was morphed into it's current role as a barbershop. Alan who used to own this place has now for Australia and left the shop to Mike who along with Mike now run the place. They're lovely guys full of mirth, intelligence and most importantly can cut hair very well. These kind of places are important to the fabric of the Withington community and it looks like this place will do well for many, many years. No appointment is necessary although Saturdays can get very busy, so try and get there just after it opens (10am) to avoid a little wait (they'll never rush a cut to appease the waiting customers mind).
