I've found it difficult to settle on a good barber recently, so I've been giving different shops a shot at the big time. The big time I am talking about is of course the chance to be the regular cutter of my thick ginger mop. Yesterday I thought I would give The Male Room a shot. I have actually been here before a few years ago but since then it has moved down the street in to new premises.
Their new premises is a lot bigger than the old one and they've slightly changed their name to the Male/Female Room. While I was waiting a few ladies checked in at the counter for their hair appointments. No appointment necessary if you're a bloke, you just rock up, hope that there's no one in front of you and in no time you'll be strutting out of the shop looking a million dollars. I was in and out in 25 minutes and that was with 2 people in the queue in front of me. The hair cut itself was great. Last month I paid double the price for practically the same haircut. The Male Room only charges £10 for a gents cut which is a bargain in this day and age.
I think the Male Room will get another shot at cutting my hair! One thing I particularly liked about the Male Room is the décor, Northern Irish sports memorabilia hangs on the walls and they have an old school American Juke Box blasting out the tunes while you wait. read more
