Good barber-shops in Leicester

[East Anglia Fox]

Right, I've been at the University of Leicester for about six weeks now I think. Quite early on, I had a haircut at the place right near the railway station called 'Vito's' or something, but it was a bit crap. I was just wondering, what barber shops would people recommend around the London Road/city centre area?

 

[Harbro-Fox]

Just shave it all off yourself mate.

 

[East Anglia Fox]

That's not a solution to anything, I don't get it shaved off when I go to a barber shop

Shiltons in Northampton Street (off Granby Street) were ok. I've not been in for a while as gone back to my old barber just off Grace Road.

Well, clearly it is

You don't need to go to a barber's shop, as Harby said, you can shave it off yourself

Well i really never knew the name of the road between Spar and Domino's Pizza, i always thought it was Evington Road, but that is where the place is

You mean Digger? Does wedding cars as well?

Chaplins

Do you want a barber shop, which will cost you £7 and get a short back and sides, or a salon where you'll pay £20+ for a proper cut?

Dunno about that Hazz, possibly. He had a small shop at the top end of Sanvey gate, opposite end to St Margaret's church, across from where the Van Damme used to be. I'm going back 10 years or more though.

How would you define a 'proper' cut?

Mix up then. There's a fella known as Digger Dyer on Beatrice Road.

Sanvey Gate's virtually a ghost town now, there's **** all on it.

There's loads up Melton Road where you can get your wig hacked for£3.50. Don't know how good they are though.
