Scissor Cut & Style
Classic and modern scissor cuts shaped to your hair and finished with a proper style.
Not every cut is about the clippers. A scissor cut gives you softer shape, natural movement and length you can style — and it rewards a barber who takes their time. We cut freehand and with scissor-over-comb, working with your hair’s natural growth and texture to create a shape that grows out well and is easy to manage at home. Every scissor cut finishes with a wash, a blow-dry where it suits the style, and honest advice on the products and technique to recreate it yourself.

Scissor Cut — your questions answered
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Still unsure? Give us a call — we are happy to help.
Do you take walk-ins, or do I need to book?
Both. Walk-ins are always welcome and we keep chairs free for them every day — but Saturdays and late afternoons get busy, so we recommend booking online to guarantee your slot and skip the wait. If you have a barber you prefer, booking is the surest way to get them.
Do you cut longer hair, not just short styles?
Absolutely. As well as fades and short cuts, our barbers are skilled with scissor work on longer styles — textured crops, flow, mid-length and grown-out looks. Just tell us what you are going for, or ask for advice, and we will shape it to suit your hair and face.
How do I book an appointment?
The quickest way is to book online through our booking system — pick your service, your barber and a time that suits you, and you are set. You can also call the shop or message us, and of course you are always welcome to simply walk in.
Can I pay by card?
Yes. We take all major debit and credit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, as well as cash. There is no minimum spend and no card surcharge.
