I don't even need to say what I want done, they just remember what I want from my haircut and I trust them entirely with a cut-throat razor. All their clients get their 5 star treatment - whether they are there for the first time or have been returning for years, whether they are hipsters with elaborate beards or more balding (like me), whether they are young or more mature. I'm happy that I found these barbers - thanks to you all.

If it's an old school barber shop in the West End you want, this is the one. There are 3 barbers in…read morethe shop headed up by George and his brother and brother-in-law. Unlike some other 'barbers' they still know how to use a pair of scissors so they won't just clip your hair. A cut and a wash is a reasonable £15 or a dry cut is £12.50 and you get as much or as little conversation as you like thrown in for free. If you are an Arsenal fan it may stand you in good stead as it seems that's who the staff support.

The only issue I had was when it came to them using the cut throat razor, having sensitive skin and thick stubble I asked for some shave cream to be used while going around the edges and doing my sideburns, but this was ignored leaving me with very painful and tender skin afterwards. Not the worst barbers you could come across and would recommend them if you are in a rush.

Im sure not all are created equal and as I approached realizing that this wasn't the shop I originally was looking for I was about to move on. However, the entrepreneurial spirit and very much alive as the owner recognizing my unkemptness opened the door and asked if I needed help. So... in I go. 30 minuted later I'm trimmed, shaved and looking human once again. They even provide water, sodas, and beer if you feel like really relaxing. Good prices, the owner is very much involved and ready to make you look good. Next stop... mohawk.

For me, Murdocks offers the best wet shave in London, with the Covent Garden outlet being my…read morefavourite within the chain. It offers the usual haircut/shaving options together with a shop which sells a range of 'male' focussed goods - i.e. more shaving items, colognes, hip flasks, books and other accessories. There are two barbers who work here - one downstairs and one upstairs. I prefer the upstairs because it is a little more private. The downstairs option is more lively but can be a bit distracting as people pop in/out of the shop which is also downstairs. Usually, I opt for the 'full service'. This is a wet shave followed by a haircut. The shave is relaxing and performed with practiced expertise and is the real highlight. All the staff I have met are super friendly which adds to the general good vibe! In short - recommended.

Stopped by to get a quick clean up buzz while in the city. I was seen right away and there was no…read morewait. Cut was basic. I got the sense the gent cutting my hair kept dissuading me from my requests. For example, I asked to take a bit off the top, to which he replied, brother the top looks fine I wouldn't touch it. I asked for a higher blend on the sides and he said, "trust me, you don't want to go too high." At this point I was pissed and wanted this to just end. In the US, when you say you want it cut a certain way, they cut it that way. Homeboy over here has seemed to forget that it's my hair, not his, so, I really don't care how you want it cut! I paid and jet out there quicker than you can say Peace out! 37 pounds for 10 minute clean up, No Thank you. I don't recommend this place. There are plenty of barbershops in and around London and Shoreditch that won't stop cutting your hair until you are satisfied.

This location is located under a bridge in the Southwark area. My hotel was nearby, so it was a perfect fit. I walked in and there are 3-4 barber chairs with some very hip looking barbers. They were playing some house/EDM music & the wallpaper was faux brick. Definitely my kind of barber shop. I was able to walk in and get my haircut done in about 30 minutes, with 3 people ahead of me. Each of the people ahead of me had unique haircuts, so it was great to see that they were very accomodating. I had my beard trimmed as well. I can't recall the price off the top of my head, but with cut & shave/trim, it was roughly around 20 pounds? A little pricey, but the attention to detail is definitely nice. When I'm back in London, I will definitely come back!
