Three cuts we’re known for

Every one of these is timed, priced and done the same way every time — no surprises when you sit down.

The Kirkgate Skin Fade

£24
Number 1 to skin · 25 minutes
A tight skin fade blended by hand with the clippers, not a guard swap — the blend is the whole job.

The Traditional Wet Shave

£28
Hot towel · straight razor · 35 minutes
Three hot towels, a proper lather and a stropped blade. The shave your grandfather had, done properly.

Beard Sculpt & Line-Up

Fifty years on the same street

Walter Hoyle opened the shop on Kirkgate in 1974, the year Leeds market still had its old glass roof. His son Michael has run the chair since 1998 and Walter still comes in on Saturday mornings, mostly for the company. We’ve had three addresses on the same forty yards of street and never once moved off it.
