St. Giles' Barbers

Alex was on time to the minute. Went straight in. Had skin fade and beard trim, absolutely amazing cut. Takes his time , will definitely use the booking service again, so much better than sitting in a barbers for an hour.

Popped in for a Haircut this morning. A great experience, professional cut and not rushed. Enjoyed the music to. Many thanks Alex, I’ll be back. Cheers Ken Smale

So this absolutely the last time I will be going to St. Giles barbers... here's why.I arrived for my appointment and the two staff were sat down just relaxing. When I said I was here for my appointment, Alex sighed and almost groaned. I could just tell he didn't want to cut my hair to begin with.Then I sat down and explained that I'd like the fringe shortened but enough still left so that it could be swept to the side. He seemed annoyed by this and then said OK YOU measure it.... and show me how much you want cut off ".A normal barber would take the comb and suggest an amount ... and politely say " How about this? Would that be OK?"Not just tell the customer to do it themselves.Alex cut my hair in silence and I was relieved when he finished. And to finish it all off... the card machine failed and had to be restarted.Plus

Alex took great care over the haircut I had this morning. I was happy with his work and will continue to make future appointments with him.

The barber took about 35 minutes to do just the back of my head. When I explained I had a meeting in 15 minutes, he quickly finished with a few random snips on the top, and said done". The final shape was horrendous and my wife forced me to go to another barber the next day. I would certainly avoid this particular barber."

Alex makes such a difference with his amazing skills and wonderful personality. We even got to sing along to Oasis

Alex is a professional guy who knows exactly what needs doing! His shop sets the atmosphere perfectly with soft jazz and makes you feel relaxed. Will be back again.

Since moving to Oxford I spent 5 years trying to find a good barber. I have now found Alex, at St Giles Barbers. Always very well presented and listens to what I want. Couldn’t find better.

This review is for my most recent trip only*I have used St Giles barbers for a while now and have been very happy with their service. Today was the first time I had the third barber that works there (I believe there are 3) and I am not impressed in the slightest.I have attached pictures of before" and "after" as well as a sample image of what I wanted my hair to look like. Funnily enough

Alex is a great barber and gives great advice about hair... which is much appreciated as I grow older and my hair gets thinner.Also, will chat when you need a chat but also knows when you want to be in silence.Perfect barber.If Alex moved barber's, I'd follow to guarantee a good quality haircut.
