Est. Bournemouth26 The Triangle · BH2 5SE
Cut-throat razors, traditional cuts and hot towel shaves. No airs, no graces, no appointment necessary.
walk in all dayThe shop
True Gents sits on the Triangle in the middle of Bournemouth. It is an old school barbershop in the proper sense: cut-throat razors, hot towels, and barbers who have been doing this long enough to tell you when you’re wrong about your own hair.
The walls are covered in flash and old signage. There’s a licensed bar with True Gents lager on tap, so a haircut can take as long as you want it to.
No appointment needed. Walk in, grab a drink, wait your turn. Book ahead if you’d rather not.
