This location is located under a bridge in the Southwark area. My hotel was nearby, so it was a perfect fit. I walked in and there are 3-4 barber chairs with some very hip looking barbers. They were playing some house/EDM music & the wallpaper was faux brick. Definitely my kind of barber shop. I was able to walk in and get my haircut done in about 30 minutes, with 3 people ahead of me. Each of the people ahead of me had unique haircuts, so it was great to see that they were very accomodating. I had my beard trimmed as well. I can't recall the price off the top of my head, but with cut & shave/trim, it was roughly around 20 pounds? A little pricey, but the attention to detail is definitely nice. When I'm back in London, I will definitely come back!

The chaps in there are friendly, efficient and very capable. I get an identical hair cut every time I go in, and to me, and it's this consistency that is the main reason I go back again and again. That, and the fact they do a pretty fly beard trim and 'edge-up' job. Hair cut and beard trim costs £15.50 every 4 weeks, I think is pretty reasonable.

Unlike some other 'barbers' they still know how to use a pair of scissors so they won't just clip your hair. A cut and a wash is a reasonable £15 or a dry cut is £12.50 and you get as much or as little conversation as you like thrown in for free.

The only issue I had was when it came to them using the cut throat razor, having sensitive skin and thick stubble I asked for some shave cream to be used while going around the edges and doing my sideburns, but this was ignored leaving me with very painful and tender skin afterwards.

Situation: I went there for my haircut, explained what I wanted and we barely spoke again. At the end of my haircut the barber didn't show me how the back of my head is, so I asked him to show it to me with the mirror. He went for the mirror and stood kind of far from my head and showed me really quickly, so I couldn't see much. I asked politely, if he could come closer and he ignored me and put the mirror close to me and leave it there, so i waited few seconds to see if he was going to do something, but he just stayed there looking at me annoyed. So I took the mirror and start seeing the back of my head for myself, and the guy took the mirror from me quickly. At this point I stood and ask if he have a problem with me and he replied to my surprise "Yes! YOU are a bad customer!". At this point we start arguing: I asked "Why I am a bad customer?" to which he replied "I cannot stay with the mirror for 5 minutes", and I replied "I didn't ask you for 5 minutes, just to come closer"... So we were discussing this and the second barber comes to me with razor in hand and start saying "PAY AND GO!", so now I face him and ask "What are you going to do with that?" referring to the razor, to which he responded: "I have it because I'm working with it!", but he didn't put it away. I know when I've been threatened, so I paid with cash and then get out of the place, and when I was going the first barber start screaming at me "NEVER COME BACK! YOU F*KING C*NT!" to which I started to insult him back while I walked to my home. When I was halfway to my home rethinking the situation over and over again, I realise that nobody should be treated like that! and be charged! so I went back to the place and demanded my money back in more calmed way. The discussion started again, but this time the second barber pushed me out of the barbershop, and the first barber came close to me and start insulting me, with me insulting him back. At some point he started calling me rubbish, so I went back to him: "Do you see that you are the one that start insulting? you called me bad customer, c*nt and now rubbish! You pushed me out and I didn't touch any of you! and you are not even saying sorry to me once!". To my surprise, the guy didn't continue insulting me, he looked at me for few seconds and then told me to wait there. He went to the register and gave me my money back, but no without telling me "never come again".
