The lad who runs this place is great. Sincere family guy you could talk to for hours. He's a real good barber too; he always listens to what I want and gets it right. This will be my barbers as long as I stay in Leith.

Went for a haircut as per usual, asked for an undercut. Both people didn't know what that was, which should have warned me straight away. Asked if he would tidy it up. Told him I was spiking it(another mistake). Seemed ok until I washed it. Fine on the sides, looked tidy enough(which any student could do with minimal training). On top he had absolutely butchered it! Never seen a fringe like that in my life. Think he must have been very partially sighted or legally blind. He must've thought"He's putting it up so won't notice". Coming here for nigh on a decade, never seen him before, won't be seeing

As a female with short hair, I have never been to a barbers before and was a bit apprehensive when I wandered in. Before agreeing to cut my hair the barber asked what I wanted, looked at my current cut and said he could do it. He talked to me the whole time to put me at ease and my hair looks great. Would definitely recommend!
