Dashing Blades Barber Shop

"Absolutely superb. I was recommended Dashing Blades by a work colleague and I did need to get my growing mop under control. I didn't know how to go about sculping my expanding beard mane into a more distinguished shape, rather than looking like I'd slept on the pavement. The booking system is very easy to use and gives up to the minute availability of all the staff. I'd seen the other reviews and looked forward to my appointment. There is limited on-street parking, with a 2 hour limit (I did manage to get a spot at 5pm) but there is a public car park 2 minutes from the shop door. The venue is very cool with leather sofas, other period furniture and relaxing music in the background. I was greeted by Rob at the door and immediately felt at ease. Rob knows exactly what he's doing, which was great because I didn't know exactly what I wanted! Hair trim (I'm growing it, so just a tidy), beard cut, neck shave and application of Captain Fawcett's Hair Pomade and Beard balm later, I'm transformed. Hobo to distinguished gent... well, much neater anyway! There is a huge array of the Captain Fawcett products at the counter. I bought what was applied on the day, Hair Pomade Putty and the Maharajah Beard Balm. A really good experience. I have found my new regular barber!"

"Highly recommend this place! Been here 3 times now and has become my go to barbers to get my beard cut/trimmed. lovely people who know what they’re doing, good conversations, great settings all at a reasonable price. The oils and balms for the beards are really good too. Will definitely be returning and recommending this place to friends and family. keep doing you, you sweet sweet souls!"

"This is the fourth time going to this barber shop. Fantastic service, unique and stylish environment and a very talented team. Love my new haircut from Rob today after he chopping off my long hair (this was my request). I'm now wearing my new look with pride, recieving plenty of complements from friends and family. I'll definitely be returning once again."

"Great experience. Went in with mid length, asked for a more professional cut and was given exactly what I wanted. The hairdresser I had was Rachel, she was extremely knowledgeable. Everything was explained, from how to style my hair and why it acts the way it does. She also gave very good beard tips. I felt very relaxed."
