My boyfriend tends to go here when he’s in need of a trim. Being a guy with short hair, he knows what he likes and often finds it hard to get it cut exactly how he likes it. He tends to leave the top long, maybe having a slight trim whilst the barber shaves the short back and sides. The tricky bit is the gradual step which tends to prove difficult for a lot of hairdressers. This barber did a good job and my boyfriend was happy, for once. He also didn’t have to book an appointment, he just went in and waited for his turn which is handy on a Saturday.

When I was a little boy I was always taken to Baron’s for a haircut and my Father has been having his hair cut there for an innumerable amount of years. This place is very much a hit with the older generation of the Selly Oak/Selly Park area and it is a stalwart business of the area. The men who run this establishment are extremely welcoming and accommodating to all who pass through and do their job with the utmost professionalism, always delivering a smart hair cut. On a separate note they actually have a decent selection of magazines and contrary to most barbers the magazines are fairly recent as opposed to massively out of date. I suspect Barons will be around for many years to come and that generations of fathers and sons will continue to frequent.

This is a proper old-school barbers shop and it’s where I go to have a beard trim, or to get my locks shaved off, which is something I do once every six months or so! I also take my son to have his bi-monthly hair trims and they always look after him and he enjoys going there. It’s a popular barbers, paricularly with the older members of the locals community, so you may have to wait your turn, but you can pass the time of day with the staff or with other waiting customers, or by reading one of the newspapers that are usually provided. The prices are reasonable and I’m always compelled to leave a tip as this is a nice place to get your hair cut. Recommended!
