Old Loves Barbershop. Formerly Old Mates Barber & Grooming

Old Loves Barbershop (formerly Old Mates Barber & Grooming) delivers solid cuts without the shopping centre hassle in Camp Hill. This straightforward barbershop operates on walk-ins only, so expect to wait during busy periods – sometimes up to two hours – but regulars reckon it's worth it for the quality. The team here gets what blokes want, whether you're explaining it poorly or showing a dodgy photo off your phone.

They're particularly good at working with what you've got rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach. The barbers take their time to get details right and do a proper job cleaning up stray hairs afterwards – none of that rushing you out the door still covered in clippings. They handle everything from regular men's cuts to kids' haircuts, with customers praising the consistent quality across different barbers.

The pricing hits that sweet spot of good value without cutting corners on service. Fair warning: without bookings, timing your visit can be tricky if you're working full-time. But if you can swing the wait, you'll walk out with a proper cut that looks the part.
