My Fathers Barbers: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Amazing Place amazing people amazing atmosphere this beautiful space is no longer in business as they have moved onto their next journey
Negative experience: I came on time for my booking but was ditched by my senior barber. No air conditioning on hot days despite having same price with other barbershops.
Positive experience: Carlos was excellent he was friendly and is obviously very good and skilled Barber but the volume of the music was very loud and over the top it's a barber shop not a night club lads
Fantastic experience: 4 real the best barber in town!
Fantastic experience: Great barbers. The cuts are fantastic.
Negative experience: I had poor experience here . I asked for a we bit off the top and i got incredibly short fringe . It is uneven and there are some very long strips of hair in random place . Would Not have this . Would not choose this barber again
Fantastic experience: Took my grandson there for a cut and he was absolutely wrapped. The vibe was great as well.
Positive experience: Great team that get your teenager talking and do a bloody good haircut too.
Fantastic experience: My Dad looked fantastic thank you
Fantastic experience: Amazing service and skills. Top class
Negative experience: I walked in, asked if they had any free barbers for a quick fade, the guy at the desk confirmed with a barber that he’d be free. I waited 20 minutes then that guy said now he was off. Unbelievably rude. I wasted 30 minutes total just to be told they never had any availabilities… what a joke of a business. Avoid this place.
Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere. Kinda place you expect when you think "Barbershop". Crews all friendly.
Negative experience: i booked a haircut with one of their senior barbers. showed him a photo of what i wanted and explained it very well. i left with a poorly blended haircut. it looked like i had a beanie on when i left the shop. overall they are not very consistent. the barbers name was thomas.
Fantastic experience: Had several haircuts here and not one bad experience. Fair price, friendly barbers, great atmosphere, always on time. Bring a card or cash because no paywave.
Fantastic experience: Clean and tidy and good fade.. listened to what I wanted. A bit expensive but not over the top... 55 for skin fade and beard work
Negative experience: 55 mins for a flat top.. He now has a number 1 cut that he could of done himself.. My husband now has NO hair... Worse hair cut he has ever had...
Fantastic experience: Great guys very friendly and do a brilliant cut

Fantastic experience: These guys are the best. I had one of the best haircuts ever. just 35 bucks. They don't do paywave, trusted me to go home and get my card. True people!
Negative experience: My partner had a booking at the store, turned up 20min early to find the doors locked and no1 there, waited around till the appointment time. Still no show and no form of communication. Very poor

Positive experience: Lovely staff, great with kids
Negative experience: Very Disappointed. My teenage son went in on the morning of Saturday the 21st of May to be told to hurry up as the barber was running late. He didn't cut his hair as asked and was rushed into explaining what he wanted. He also has a big red mark on the back of his neck from the clippers. Myself and my two sons have all gone to MFB but we won't be back.
Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere and was very happy with my cut.
Fantastic experience: Top lads, good banter and cut.

Fantastic experience: Went in today for my first cut in 2 years. My hair was very long and just wanted to cut it medium length. The barber said that it wasn’t really his speciality but he’ll give it go. He did a great job and will definitely be going back there for my next cut.

Fantastic experience: ***Posting for my partner* went there for my first time yesterday. My partner sat in there waiting while I got my hair done. We absolutely loved it there. Made us feel welcome me & my barber had yarns like we had known eachother for years! He even fixed up my beard for free (while partner was giving me thumbs up in the background!) Environment bloody awesome & sounds groovy as! We will both definitely be back. Partner said "she is not your rehab" t-shirts made her feel more welcoming even though she wasn't getting her hair done she felt included also. Can't rate this crew high enough!!! Massive respects
Fantastic experience: I was looking for something more than a standard "hairdresser" and wasn't disappointed. The environment was welcoming, the stylists were friendly and approachable, and the skill in their trade will see me going back again. Great experience, Great value, Great people, Great Value!
Fantastic experience: I have tried multiple barber throughout Christchurch, only these awesome guys have offered amazing results! Also I must say that the prices well worth the results that you are going to get

Fantastic experience: My son loved his fresh cut
Fantastic experience: Great experience and great cut.
Fantastic experience: Been going to these guys for about a year now and do not regret making the switch from my old barber store. They have a friendly and welcoming team of guys that make you feel right at home while you get an excellent haircut. They all really seem to take pride in their work and I always leave feeling like a million bucks. Fair to say ive had some great yarns with the guys there as well. Could not recommend more!
Fantastic experience: Was good to get a quick reply within the hour and an appointment straight away.

Fantastic experience: High quality barber shop but way more such a great atmosphere and and like the role modelling Matt creates for society
Fantastic experience: Great cut, relaxed atmosphere
Fantastic experience: I cannot rate this place highly enough! I brought my two year old in today for his first haircut. I wish I could remember the name of the amazing barber who did his hair. He was so patient and kind. He did such and amazing job, even though it was a real struggle to do. The whole team was so welcoming, thanks so much we will be back (sorry hopefully he's a better client next time ;).
Fantastic experience: Fantastic, friendly service. Always get a great cut from these chaps.
Fantastic experience: love the job of those guys. Always a good cut
Fantastic experience: Awesome team. Very Friendly.
Fantastic experience: Good ppl always quality service
Positive experience: My Barber was very proffesional, did an amazing job with my long thinning hair. The atmosphere was friendly, and the place was very clean. I would highly recommend these awesome talented barbers. Sadly due to current health restrictions i couldn't get my beard done this time, but hopefully soon in the future. I would give it 5 stars but when i had to pay i found it was expensive, its not that the price was unreasonable its just that i was used to $15 to $20 cheap cuts so i wasn't prepared mentaly for the $70 bill. Again i would like to say it was worth it
