Hair House Barbershop is keeping the legacy of Shanghai barbers alive in Hong Kong, where owner Adam Chan gives a mean sharp cut and fade using traditional methods. Inspired by 50s and 60s Hong Kong, Hair House Barbershop offers a nice trip down memory lane with its decor and vibes. 

Helmed by master barber Argo, Handsome Factory's Causeway Bay branch is hidden in a little cove between Fashion Walk and the World Trade Centre.

Housed within the Mandarin Oriental, this is the OG place for high-end male grooming in Hong Kong, having employed only the very best since opening in 1963. Its interior flirts with a 1930s Shanghai feel and is slightly reminiscent of a private gentlemen’s club. From haircuts to wet shaves to beard trims, getting a fresh look here is definitely a VIP experience.

Too Far East feels modern, open, and bright, but at the same time, ties into a time gone by with its simple furnishings and retro style tiles – mixing old-school barbershop techniques with a stylish interior and attitude. The uniforms also embrace a touch of vintage, honouring the Shanghainese barbers of old Hong Kong. Rest assured that you'll leave with a sharp look thanks to their lineup of pro international barbers.
