As any of my regular review readers (if such a thing exists!) will know, from the sheer amount of…read morehairdressers I've rated, I'm not fussy when it comes to hairdressers. It normally gets to the stage when I'm walking down the street and feel my hair at a certain point, I'll just walk into the next hair salon I see. However, having passed The Barber's Shop on several occasions, I made a mental note to make use of their services the next time my hair inevitably reached the point where I ceased to look like a human and more closely resembled some sort of yeti. The Barber's Shop is the best of both worlds, modern and sleek, but designed to evoke the classic, traditional barber shop feel of a bygone era (complete with spinning pole outside!). They've got various Birmingham City Football Club merchandise on the wall, giving the place a real local feel. The look isn't the only thing reminiscent of days gone by; the prices are fantastic, just £7 for a gents cut. I've never even had to wait when using The Barber Shop, but should you have to, there's a great selection of magazines and some cushiony sofas to occupy you. One of Birmingham's best.

It was quite busy today, being a Saturday, but they had at least 7 barbers on the floor working professionally and to high standard with each customer. An amazing thing about Turkish Golden Scissors is that even when busy they won't rush the individual they are looking after. When it is your turn, and you see there is a queue, the barber never lets you feel that he has to rush; but your his/her priority for however long he/she is with you. I was asked if I wanted a drink, and I had my favourite Turkish tea which is a great drink to have while you wait. Had a pleasant chat with the barber too who asked questions about me and they were genuine. All I'd say is that there is no uniform way of cutting or styling your hair, so you don't know who you will see, how he will treat you and what will you look like at the end. But, I've not had a bad experience yet, and by the looks of everyone, I don't think I will. However, some have done a better job than others. Overall, will keep coming back for the spar-like treatment.

This rather grandly named barbers and hairdressers is, I believe, a relatively new addition to the…read morerow of shops here. Offering wash, cut and style from just £10 their services are very reasonably priced. Seeing that they offer a traditional shave and that I'm off camping tomorrow, I go in for this service as I want a close shave so I'm not looking too feral by Monday morning. My face is prepared by the way of a very hot towel; the stylist tells me that this opens up the pores and expands the skin on the face and will allow him to get as close a shave as possible. Then he rubs a light lather into my face. Then the moment of trust is upon me! But, of course I have nothing to fear, and 10 minutes later, I'm out of the door with a face as smooth as a baby's doo-dah. At £10 it may seem steep but it's nice as treat for special occasions.

The only negative I need to mention is that there are no appointments. My advice is to wait it out, its only £12 for a trim and worth every penny. To top it all off this place is also bargain hunter friendly! For every 6/7 cuts you have you get one half price. Be sure to pick up a loyalty card and take full advantage.

I went here three or four times when I was working in The Big Peg and it was an easy, quick trip…read moredoor to door. I was always really happy with both the service and the cut. Banter is fine, easy going. I have to say my haircut is likely as simple as it gets. Basically short sides and back and a number 2 on top. Hard to get wrong. But he always did a neat job with no messing around. You mileage may vary if you have some complicated cut. He'd probably handle it fine; I just don't know. I'd say at £12 the price is fair given local prices for a decent man cut. I only stopped going when I moved job and so it became a bit of a trek. I might go back. I liked the bloke and good to support a local independent too. I'd recommend the place.

Like stepping back into the world of Quadrophenia and taking all the best parts of 1960's, 70's and 80's pop culture and displaying them proudly all over the walls of the shop. I really find looking at all the memorabilia so nostalgic and makes the time sat waiting to see one of the immaculately dressed barbers very short. Even one of the hairdryers I notice had a black and white two tone print on it! Ace Face certainly isn't style over substance. I visit the barbers to have my beard neatened and the attention and care they give to my face is second to none. Lots of time is dedicated to the trim using a range of different equipment to make sure I leave the barbers feeling like a new man. Highly recommended gents!

Strangely, they also do Rocker styles as well such as Elvis quiffs. Perhaps they should have rockers in on different days to mods otherwise Great Barr might soon resemble Brighton Beach as depicted in Graeme Green's classic book. The owners also run mod events at The Victoria pub in town in the form of Club-A-Go-Go, with DJs spinning rare 60's and live bands like the horn-heavy DC Fontana.
