Fantastic experience: Amazing haircut, best in Manchester, lovely service too
Positive experience: Hair cut looks good. I have sensitive skin so the marks of trimmer are visible on my skin however I didn’t mention it forehand to barber. Service is good
Fantastic experience: Just had my 3rd cut here, and on all 3 occasions the boys here have absolutely smashed my hair and beard. I’d highly recommend anyone in the withington area give them a try. Adam, the owner, was teaching one of his staff during the cut this time, and was explaining his thought process throughout - this makes you feel like you’re in good hands. The attention to care and detail is something you don’t find too often for such a good price.
Fantastic experience: It was the first haircut with these guys, and it went smoothly and efficiently. Not knowing much about my hair, they offered different options and styles to go for. The atmosphere is great and calm. Will make this my local barber!!!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant customer service, very welcoming and took their time with my haircut which made me feel more appreciated. Would highly recommend

Negative experience: Adam was very nice and welcoming however I felt the trim was very rushed and the skin fade was not even I asked for short and top and he didn’t go short. I also have a slight bald patch he has left on the back of my head which I am not happy about. The beard was very good on the other hand shaped up nicely but I asked for the front of my hair to be boxed off and shaped up but that was ignored
