Hawleywood's Barber Shop & Shaving Parlor
Gentlemen Only Barber ShopHawleywood's Barber Shop and Shaving Parlor is the kind of joint where you would see old mobsters with their faces covered in hot towels and shaving cream. This is the original, 1940's style shop that specializes in the hot towel, straight razor shaves and the high and tight haircut. You'll receive the cleanest haircut in Sydney while relaxing in what we feel is a man's sanctuary.
We offer haircuts, shaves, Layrite and No. 9 men's grooming products. Layrite Deluxe Pomade has become a world-wide phenomenon. It is hair grease that holds like wax, and washes out like gel. ...read more
Great shop, fantastic vibe. All the guys that work there are so accommodating. Its overall a fun experience. Really love that its mens only, I am all up for equal rights however when I am getting my nose hairs trimmed and relaxing for a shave I don't want my girlfriend peering asking questions with a shaver up my nose. Been going for 3 years now and have never had a bad cut. Recommended for a quality hair cut every time.
I went in there on a day off looking to treat myself to a nice old school value experience, came back looking so bad I am thinking of not going out to the birthday dinner that I was invited to.
On par with the worst experience I have had in grooming. I got a straight razor cut and my face looks like it was mauled by a tiger. The staff member must not be able to see very well because I had hairs all over my face that were still there and I kept having to point them out to the staff..in the end I went home and finished the job with a disposable razor.
There's over 10 nicks and cuts, including one cut which is about 2cm long.. their idea of trimming hair involved literally 4 snips of the scissors..
Whatever you do, research for better alternatives.. I am too scared to get a straight razor cut again, but if I ever did, I would avoid this place.
