A proper cut · a fair price
One shop, two chairs — the barber's and the salon.
Old-fashioned care, done properly — for him, for her, and the kids.
On the corner of Arthur Street, next to Iceland. Walk-ins welcome for the barbers; salon appointments best booked ahead.
Two trades · one door
Not a barbershop with a bit of hair on the side — two proper halves, each done right.
For him · and the kids
Skin fades, sharp line-ups and a proper beard trim — plus first cuts for the little ones. Walk in, sit down, no fuss.
For her · every length, every texture
Cut and colour, balayage and blow-dries, perms, keratin, curly-hair cuts, braids and extensions — looked after from wash to finish.
The price board
Out on the wall, nothing hidden — the same idea the name is built on: a proper cut, honestly priced.
A guide only — the final price depends on hair length, thickness and time in the chair. Ask when you sit down, or see live prices when you book on Fresha. {{OWNER: confirm prices}} — replace each {{PRICE}} with your figure.
£ · s · d — old money
In old British money, a “bob” was a shilling. Twenty shillings made a pound — so eighty bob came to eighty shillings, or four pounds. Once upon a time, that was the going rate for a proper cut and a bit of care.
The coins changed in 1971. The idea behind the name didn’t: a good chair, a sharp finish, and a fair price — for everyone who walks in, whichever side they’re after.
Eighty bob = 80 shillings = £4 in old money — the price of a proper cut, once upon a time.
A bit of history, mind — not today’s price list. See the board above for what a cut costs now.
