EMPIRE BARBER SHOPBarber Shop in Five Dock, New South Wales

Empire Barber Shop brings serious barbering credentials to Five Dock's Great North Road.

The shop runs a proper setup with seven barber chairs and basins, ensuring you won't be waiting around.

Their team delivers everything from classic men's cuts ($40) and sharp fades ($45) to traditional hot towel head shaves ($40) and precise beard work. They've got the younger blokes sorted too with student rates and kids' cuts from $30. Beyond the standard cuts, Empire handles colour work, straightening services, and detailed grooming including eyebrow and ear/nose waxing.

The shop stocks premium male grooming products – colognes, beard oils, waxes and styling products – so you can maintain that fresh-cut look at home. Open six days with extended Thursday hours until 6:30pm, they cater to working schedules while keeping Sunday sessions until 3pm for weekend touch-ups.
