SERVICES
THE TRADITIONAL
Like a classic car or a top shelf whisky, some things only get better with time. This haircut is proof. It’s neat. It’s timeless. Taking you back to the days when men were men and their haircuts were refined. It’s the kind of cut that makes people say, "That bloke means business." The Easter Island statues are mysteriously carved in your image. You just got promoted at work. You don’t even have a job. Even your dad’s dad’s dad wishes he booked here. Look in the mirror. That’s a man’s man staring back.
THE FADE
Look at your old haircut. Now back at this fade. Now back to your old haircut. Now back at this fade. Sadly, your old cut isn’t this fade; but if you book an appointment, it could be. With a fade this clean, you won’t just walk into a room, you’ll glide in, radiating confidence. Birds will sing. Doors will open before you reach them. Your reflection will nod approvingly. Your enemies? They’ll cower in the presence of your impeccable grooming choices. And your ex? Oh, they’ll see it. They’ll pretend not to care, but deep down, they’ll know that you won the breakup. This isn’t just a haircut. It’s a power move. A statement and that statement is: “I have my life together.” Look down. Back up. Where are you? Wherever you want to be.
THE RESTYLE
Your long hair had a good run. But now? Now it’s time to rise from the ashes. The moment the scissors touch your locks, destiny is rewritten. With each precise cut, the old you fades away, revealing a sleeker, bolder, more refined version of yourself. Brushing your hair? A thing of the past. Waking up with bedhead? No longer your concern. Spending 20 minutes drying your hair? Ancient history. Look at your face. That’s the face of a man who just made the right call. It’s not just a new cut; it’s a new era.
THE SCISSOR CUT
Close your eyes. Picture a movie trailer. The camera pans up. There you are, no longer a regular person. You are main character material. This cut doesn’t just make you look good, it gives you a mysterious backstory. People will assume you know things. Important things. Things like how to order an expensive drink or negotiate a hostage situation with nothing but your charm. Your ex will see you and suddenly “just want to check in.” But it’s too late; this hair belongs to the future. Look around. Back at your reflection. Yes, that is undeniable excellence.
THE BUZZ CUT
Look at your hair. Now back at me. Now back at your hair. Wait, it’s gone. That’s right. You just unlocked the ultimate life hack. No styling. No bedhead. No nonsense. Just pure, low-maintenance greatness. Your morning routine? Now faster than your ex’s decision to text, "I miss you." Look down. Look up. Where are you? Winning at life with the cleanest, simplest cut known to mankind.
THE BUZZ FADE
Congratulations. You’ve chosen peak aerodynamics. Your head is now optimized for maximum efficiency, zero drag, and an unstoppable presence. This isn’t just a haircut; it’s an upgrade. Your jawline? Sharper. Your confidence? Higher. Your ability to intimidate lesser men with a single glance? Maxed out. Your ex will say, "You look different." No. You look unstoppable. Look away. Look back. Where are you? In total control of your destiny.
THE OLDER GENT (SENIORS)
You’ve earned every gray hair on your head. But that doesn’t mean they can’t be styled to perfection. This cut is for the man who knows that age is just a number, but looking sharp is forever. With hair this clean, you’ll turn heads at the golf course, the bowling club, and Beryl’s Tuesday night bingo. Your grandkids will want to be you. Your ex from 50 years ago suddenly has the urge to find you on Facebook. Retired? Maybe. Relaxed? Definitely. Sloppy? Never. This haircut says, "I may be collecting a pension, but I’m still collecting compliments." It’s crisp. It’s clean. It’s the perfect balance between effortless and legendary.
THE YOUNGER GENT (Ages 5-14)
This isn’t just a haircut. It’s where men are made. A fresh style that says, “I color inside the lines, but I break the rules in Mario Kart.” It’s the kind of haircut that makes mum take way too many photos, and dad say, "That’s my boy.". Mates will respect it. Teachers? Might just call him ‘sir’ by accident. Look down. Look up. Where is he? Walking into school like he owns the place.
THE BEARD BUZZ
Knock knock, who’s there? Efficiency. One length, one decision, zero regrets. No stray hairs, no maintenance headaches. It’s clean. It’s sharp. It’s the beard version of pressing the ‘easy’ button. Your mornings? Simplified. Your style? Maximized. Your ex? Rethinking life choices. Look at yourself. Winning at life with a beard that takes care of itself.
THE BEARD TRIM
Move over Goldilocks, this beard is just right. This isn’t just a trim. It’s a calculated upgrade; bringing balance to your life, like a sculptor chiseling the ultimate face enhancer. No rough edges. No scraggly bits. Just a beard so well-shaped, your jawline gets a standing ovation. This isn’t just hair, it’s your face’s suit and tie and this trim? Tailored to perfection. Look at yourself. Now look at a man who’s got it together. Same man.
THE BEARD SCULPT
Look at your beard. Now back at me. Now back at your beard; oh wait, it’s majestic now. This isn’t just a trim. This is a royal decree for your facial kingdom. Every stray hair? Disciplined. Every edge? Carved like fine marble. You don’t just have a beard anymore, you have a masterpiece hanging in the gallery that is your face. Colleagues will listen more closely. Strangers will seek you for your wisdom. When smaller beards cross your path they’ll give you right of way. Look down. Look up. Where are you? Sitting on the beard throne, ruling with refined power.
THE HOT TOWEL SHAVE
Some say smooth skin is just a dream. But dreams are for people who don’t get hot towel shaves. Close your eyes. Feel the warmth? That’s not just a towel; that’s redemption pressing against your face. Years of stress? Melted. Bad decisions? Erased. The memory of your ex’s terrible taste in music? Gone. Your face? So clean, even your reflection is impressed. Your skin? Smoother than your best pick-up line. Your confidence? Rising faster than your ex’s regret. By the time we’re done, you won’t just feel fresh, you’ll feel reborn. This isn’t just a shave. It’s an awakening. A reset button. A one-way ticket to looking dangerously handsome. Colleagues will fear you. Friends will envy you. Traffic lights will turn green just for you. Look at yourself. Now look at greatness. Oh wait, you’re the same thing now.
THE DETOX SCRUB
Step one: Relax. Step two: Experience the cleansing power of a thousand waterfalls. Step three: Look in the mirror and realize; you have never been this fresh in your entire life. Impurities? Eliminated. Clogged pores? No more. Knock Knock. Who’s there? Confidence This isn’t just skincare. This is a reset button for your face. You are now too smooth, too radiant, too powerful. Look away. Look back. Is that the sun? No, it's you.

You tell a story and we believe that your unique story is your most important feature. When you sit in our chairs we take the time to listen and tailor your haircut to fit you and your story.

Behind the chair
Ash got his start in the barbering world after seeing a need for men to have a space they could relax in; that wasn’t the pub. His attention quickly turned to creating a holistic approach to cutting hair. Having a background in mental health (in different capacities) meant he could understand the importance of not only helping clients look good but also feel good.
This unique approach combines the traditional skills of a barber with a compassionate and empathetic understanding of mental health issues. This in-turn creates a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to express their concerns and challenges, offering a listening ear and practical advice. Creating Ampersand Barber Co. gave Ash the opportunity to work with men from all walks of life, creating a personalised experience for each and every one of them.
​
With attention to detail and commitment to the craft, Ash ensures that his clients receive a top-notch service every time they sit in the chair. By integrating mental health awareness into his work, Ash breaks down the stigma surrounding mental health and promotes positive self-care. As a mental health barber, Ash hopes to make a difference in his clients' lives by helping them feel confident, relaxed, and mentally balanced.
"As stories are shared and relationships built, you become a trusted confidant and friend. Whether it's a fresh new cut, a close shave, or a relaxing detox scrub (highly recommended), there is the power to transform someone's day and boost their confidence. Barbers have always been an essential part of the community, and you hope that your work makes a real difference in people's lives."
