Cut & Fade

Our haircut services cover clean, classic gentlemen’s cuts, modern fade haircuts, and precise skin fades.

Styles are built with neatly trimmed sides and back, balanced length on top, and a finish shaped around personal preference. We offer traditional gents haircuts, wash and cut for long hair, and low-maintenance one-grade clipper cuts. Special pricing is available for students, senior citizens aged 67 and over, and children aged 12 and under.

Beard & Shape

Beard grooming combines precision and tradition through expert beard trims and hot towel shaves.

This service focuses on shaping facial hair to enhance natural features while maintaining clean lines and comfort. Hot towels and careful detailing provide a relaxed grooming experience that leaves the beard looking balanced, sharp, and well maintained without overworking the skin or facial hair.

Wax & Thread

Waxing and threading services target unwanted hair on the ears, nose, and eyebrows.

This quick and effective grooming method removes hair from the follicle, helping maintain a clean and refined appearance. Ideal as a standalone service or as part of a regular routine, wax and threading keep facial details sharp with minimal time and maximum precision.

Colour & Style

Hair & beard colouring services, designed to enhance your look while maintaining a natural finish.

We offer colour options including black, dark brown, and light brown to cover grey hair or refresh existing tones. Colour is applied with care to complement your cut and style, leaving hair and beard looking even, controlled, and intentional.
