Great haircut as always — professional, quick, and always asked at the end if I was happy with it. Best in Leeds.

Quick, convenient, spot-on results — and I learned a lot in my chat. Exactly what a lunch-break cut should be.

Good to know
Before you book.
Do you take walk-ins or do I need to book?
Both. Walk in whenever there's a free chair. Booking on Booksy locks in your slot and your barber though, and same-day appointments open up a fair bit, so it's worth a look online first.
Do you offer a student discount?
Yes. We run discounted student rates Monday to Friday — a Student Haircut is £20 and a Student Cut & Beard is £30. Just bring a valid student ID.
Where exactly are you, and is there parking?
We're at 23 Thorntons Arcade, LS1 6LQ, a covered Victorian arcade two minutes from Briggate. Nearest car parks are The Core and the Merrion Centre, and the rail station is about a 10-minute walk.
What's your cancellation policy?
Plans change. Let us know as early as you can. You can reschedule or cancel straight from your Booksy confirmation, or give us a call on 0113 245 4689.
Booking
Reserve your chair in under a minute.
No ringing round, no hold music. Pick a service, a time that suits, and a barber if you want one. Same-day slots open most mornings.
