The Barber Too

I don’t review many ‘non-​food/​drink related’ businesses here, I tend to focus my Unilocaling on pubs and eateries but as this is my local barber, and I actually enjoy going in, I thought it worth taking some time (this may set a trend, businesses be warned!).
That said, at a stretch I could include The Barber Too under the ‘food/​drink’ category as they’ve adopted an old tradition in offering the clientele a beer or a dram when they pop in!
It’s a short walk from my flat, and first impressions when you walk in are that this isn’t a run of the mill barber. Some amazing artwork (by local artists) decorates the walls, it has a modern/​quirky feel to it, and the music is usually pretty good too so even if there is a queue the time passes quickly.
They offer the usual services but as I’m somewhat folicly challenged I’ve only ever bothered with a quick cut/​trim.
You always get a friendly welcome here, they are always cheery and chatty as they snip away at your locks (locks, ha, I wish I had locks of hair still!). I’ve been going here for a few years now and never had a bad experience or bad haircut.
Can’t recommend them highly enough.

A few years back my regular barber succumbed to the financial crisis and I was left in limbo and had to find a new barber.
At first I bought clippers and persevered for a few months of trying to cut my own hair. However, as you can imagine it was a disaster! Thankfully while walking towards byres road one day I came across barber too. As my clippers were not charged and was overdue for a cut I wandered in!
I was delighted! I had found my new regular! Staff were and always have been a total pleasure. Now after two years of visiting, it’s like walking in to chat to old friends.
I cannot recommend this shop enough! A very good cut and excellent service! 5 stars!!!
