Knucklehead BarbershopBarber Shop in Richmond, Victoria

Knucklehead Barbershop brings old-school barbering with a modern twist to Richmond and Hawthorn. Established in 2016, this no-nonsense shop has built its reputation on quality cuts, cold beers, and a relaxed atmosphere where blokes can unwind. The team specialises in classic men's cuts, zero fades, and skin fades, with straightforward pricing from $25 buzz cuts to $55 skin fades.

They handle everything from quick touch-ups (sides only from $35) to complete restyles for longer hair. Kids under 14 get their own pricing structure, and beard trims are available for $20. What sets Knucklehead apart is the vibe – grab a beer while getting your hair sorted.

It's walk-ins only, so rock up when you're ready. The Richmond shop on Bridge Road runs Tuesday to Friday 10am-6pm (7pm Thursdays), plus Saturday 8am-4pm, while their Hawthorn location on Auburn Road keeps similar hours. Fair warning: they might close early on busy days, so don't leave it till the last minute.

After seven years and thousands of cuts, they've nailed the formula of good people, great times, and premium haircuts. Gift cards available for the bloke who has everything except a decent barber.
