Gordon Barber

Everytime I walk or drive past Gordan Barber, I can’t help but be overwhelmed with advertising. The fluro yellow and bold black writing certainly grabs the attention. Perhaps it is due to this successful marketing that the barber attracts many of its local customers through its doors for a regular trim. The pricing is incredibly reasonable considering its location on the North Shore but is a welcome factor by many of its customers. Their friendly service coupled with their professional work is ideal for anyone who is after a quick and tidy trim.

You can’t miss the advertising. The bright florescent green van parked on the street with the words GORDON BARBER and a big arrow pointing to the shop. Outside the shop there is a sign that says «$ 18 hair cuts». The barber shop is busy and there are 3 different people cutting hair. No receptionist, just two men and a lady who looks like the owner’s mother. We are greeted with a big «hello, have a seat, we will right with you». The owner asked me to have a seat and proceeded to cut my hair. Now I’ve been to a lot of barbers in my day and this guy knew what he was doing. He had a good eye and was able to get it just right. A straight edge razor shave for the neckline, a little bit of styling gel and I was good to go. They also do a traditional hot towel and wet shave. This is so much better than getting your hair cut at the mall for an extra $ 10 more.
