There comes a time when it’s worth knowing which amongst the thousands are the best barber shops in Bangkok. What’s the point of living your best life if you don’t look good doing it?! Every now again you need to sharpen up, and that’s where these great Thai barbers come in.

If you want a no-nonsense, vintage barbers who take a no-frills approach to smartening you up then Three Brothers is for you. Their specialty is creating retro hairstyles on modern men, and the clientele could be anyone from kids straight out of school all the way up to style-conscious old guys that you’d normally see chatting on the street corner.

Bringing a piece of England to Thailand, Truefitt & Hill are a traditional gentleman’s chain in the UK who have moved overseas to bring their brand of old school cool to the streets of Bangkok. The walls are decked out in pinstripe wallpaper and old sepia photos, and a trip here is more of an immersive experience than just a mere haircut. The services on offer range from shaves to facials, beard trimming to shoe shining, although with the haircuts priced at 1,100 baht ($35) you might want to be selective about what you go for!
Prices: Haircuts from 1,100 baht ($35 US) up to 1,500 baht ($48), and hot towel wet shave 1,800 baht ($58!)
Location: Central Embassy Mall, Phloen Chit Rd, Pathumwan and Emporium Mall, Sukhumvit, Klongtoey
If the old-fashioned gentleman’s vibe isn’t for you, head to Never Say Cutz where rapper Way Thaitanium has set up something altogether different. This is a barbers with attitude, where you’re more likely to leave with a freestyle design shaved into the back of your head than you are to get a manicure. The stylists here are heavily influenced by American culture and rap music plays in the background while you get transformed. By the time you’re done, you’ll want to check out one of the many amazing hip hop clubs in Bangkok!
Prices: Haircuts from 500 baht or $16
Location: Sukhumvit 51,Sukhumvit Road and Siam Square amongst others
Tew’s is something of a Bangkok institution. You don’t come here looking for state-of-the-art equipment or a modern refurb, but what it lacks in modern design it makes up for in service and attention to detail. The chairs are still the same as when they first opened their doors many years ago, and the stacks of imported grooming products heaped around the place give it a rough and ready but functional appeal. The staff are friendly and the prices are reasonable, with a basic cut costing 600 baht ($19) and a hot towel shave costing 400 baht ($13).
Prices: Haircuts from 600 baht or $19
Location: 423/4 Soi Siam Square 9, and Ekkamai, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana
