London Rd Barbers — Attraction in London

I have been to The London road barbers before a couple of times, and always had a good haircut, plus good customer service. This time wasn’t much different, except I have been growing out my beard for the past two months. This was for a special event I was attending at the weekend. I asked if they can trim and shape beards. I was told they can and do. Excellent I thought !. I said what haircut I wanted and said, we can talk about the beard after. Perhaps my barber didn’t hear me?! I wear glasses. I am short sighted, and took them off to make doing my hair easier for them. I can’t see that well without them. The hair cut was fine. However before we had a chance to discuss the beard he had gone to work on shaping it!. Too late !!. There is a basic shape already there, much like my hair line on my head. He’s followed that so should be fine with the beard. Little did I release he was completely re-shaping it over my cheeks. All that had been grown over the two month period in preparation for this long awaited weekend, was gone in two minutes. Once I’d realised, it was too late. When I put my glasses back on, I was absolutely speechless. I paid and I walked out in silence. I am so desperately disappointed. Maybe I should have put my glasses on, maybe should have said something ?! Maybe they should have asked what I wanted. I won’t be making that mistake...

Highly recommend the £15 shave if you hate yourself. What an exciting experience, I was feeling lazy to shave at home so tried this Barber shop for hot towel shave. I expected something special for a price of £15 and special I got. The guy was an artist, even though he using a 'fresh blade' he left few hair to make sure its not clean shave but made up for it with amazing painful number of cuts on my neck. They look so cool although painful, however I won't be going back there any time soon. However if you want to atone for your sins I highly recommend a hotel towel...

Not the usual barbers. Popped in for a trim. 0.5 faded to a swept feathered top (right parting). Fade was really uneven with a massive arch on the left (was told it was my head shape) Fade grade was 1. No feather on top. Popped in a barbers down the road to tidy it up. My now new barbers. Personally I wouldn’t allow the geezer to butter my bread. If this allows me to put up a pic it’s of the fella sorting it. However the guy couldn’t lose the arch on the left. To high. Thanks for the...
