Al's Clip Joint

If you advertise wash: £5, and scissor cut: £15 then that's what you should charge, not magically decide that hair which was literally just at the collar length suddenly costs another £9 to cut because it's "long". £29? I could have taken my 12yo to a hairdresser for that much, and if you are going to make up unadvertised charges then you should advise customers of them before you start to cut.

Not very impressed with the cut either.

Used to come here everytime I needed a trim. Went on Saturday, throughly disappointed, the barber did not listen to what I said. Charged me £3 for a 20 second wash that I did not ask for nor want. And then did a terrible cut. Disappointed beyond belief and now looking for a new barber.

In this busy, vibrant, hub of the entire planet we call London, thank God there is still room for this kind of place. A place where a regular guy can go and get a decent regular haircut. Where he's not offered wharf eau de fancy head massages, where 12 year old gum-chewing girls don't dump half arse made lattes on your lap, where you're not forced to read girly mags while you wait. Newbies might be shocked by the Sweeney Todd poster sat over your shoulder as you sit in the chair for the first time. Look out for the beautiful old till in the corner. Cash Only. No questions, understand?

Mine is not quite a review but all i can say is from 1970 to 2005 i walked into that barbers every morning to start off my working day....and have i cut some hair!!!!!! would like some comments from my old customers....if they remember me. I am so proud that it is still called AL'S CLIP JOINT and I am sure that Peter is doing a good job...greetings from Italy.....
