The shop from the door: a barber's chair on reclaimed boards, dark wood cabinets and low lamps
Chatsworth Road · Hackney E5

A proper cut, in a room worth sitting in

Onur has the chair on Chatsworth Road. Skin fades and scissor work, beards shaped or taken back to the skin with a razor, and a shop where the music is good and nobody hurries you out of the door.

On the chair

Cut, shaped, shaved

Whatever you walk in with, it starts the same way: a proper look at your face shape and a conversation about what will actually suit you. Then the clippers.

Skin fades & clipper work

Tight around the ears, blended out as high as you want it, and finished with a wash and a style rather than a mirror and a shrug.

From £20
A long scissor cut being combed straight back at the chair

Scissor cuts & re-styling

Short, long, or growing out of something you regret. Cut, washed, and put back the way you will actually wear it on a Tuesday.

From £30
An open cut-throat razor on the bar beside a bottle and a cigar

Beards, shaves & head shaves

Shaped up with the clippers, or lathered and taken off with a razor if you have half an hour to sit still for it.

From £15
The board

What it costs, before you sit down

The board on the wall of the shop and the board on this page are the same board. Cash or card, no booking fee, and nobody discovers a surprise at the till.

Inside

Dark wood, brass, and a lizard on a motorbike

The shop is half barbershop and half front room. Reclaimed boards, an old chair, a bottle on the shelf, and a bearded dragon who sits on a model motorbike by the window. People come in for a cut and stay for twenty minutes longer than they meant to, which is roughly the idea.

  • Reclaimed wood, brass, and a chair that has held a few thousand people
  • Good music, always — that is not an accident
  • A drink on the shelf if you are waiting for someone
  • Out-of-hours appointments when the day will not fit around you

What people say when we are not in the room

Onur is an expert barber and hair stylist. He takes the time to actually look at your face shape and see what works best for you. He really goes above and beyond. It’s the best haircut I’ve had in London hands down.

Christopher Garbushian

This is the best barbers I've found in Hackney! Onur is always so friendly- he seems to know everyone in the area. Every time I get a haircut he waves to people walking by. There are a few business owners on Chatsworth Road who are creating a really great community feel. Onur is at the heart of that!

Mike Lane-Evans

Love this place. Great tunes, relaxing vibe, and real attention to detail in the haircuts. Can recommend getting a proper shave here too. Really reasonable prices.

The chair is free. Come and sit in it.

Pick a time online and it goes straight into the diary. If you would rather just ring, that works too — and if the chair is empty when you walk past, sit down.
