Carvin Mens Salon 8 Malden Road, London NW5 3HR

"Finding the right barber is very difficult, especially when your very particular. I’m came across Adam 5 years ago whilst doing some work for him. He cut my hair then and has done ever since. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience with all types of hair and always welcomes advice on what’s best for you. I live about 20miles away and still travel here as I know i will always get a great service as well as a friendly chat. Not only is Adam a great barber he’s a good guy too and that is just as hard to find as a good barber. Thank you Adam for always putting a smile on my face!"

"The only salon I have stuck to for longer than 2 months. 3 years on and I still get the same quality haircut as a new customer would get anywhere else. I rely entirely on this salon for my monthly skin fade and for all special occasions as I know I will always leave happy. If you are someone who - like me - wants your hair taken care of and prefers perfection over a rushed 15 minute job, this is the place to book"

"One of the top barbershop I’ve been in London. I had my haircut last Friday and I am still getting positive compliments from people; therefore I will write a positive review to return the favour. I had a very important meeting to go to that day and was desperate for gents grooming. I’m not the usual person to walk-in to a random barbershop but Carvin Men’s Salon didn’t disappoint. My barber was Jaemar; He was collective, respective and extremely skilled barber. He gave me a ‘low-skin fade’ and it was well executed. So Thank you Jae for the clean work and excellent service."

"I had visited them a few times, the owner does an amazing job, cut my hair to perfection, I returned again and expected the same quality but unfortunately the barber that day did not do a good job, in fact shaved my hairline way too high even though I asked him not to. Haircut is fairly OK but most of them have no Idea how to trim and cut a beard."

"There are a few quality men's barbers in North London where the service is worth the high prices for a standard hair cut. This is NOT one of them. I've booked online twice and they've made me wait over 20mins, even with a booking. No drinks offered, no reading material, pretty sleek and corporate interior. A very average barbers for £26. Would not really recommend unless you're desperate..."
