10 Best Barbershops in Singapore (October 2026)

What separates Sultans from other premium shops is the breadth of their offering. Beyond haircuts and shaves, they have a full facial menu (classic, enhanced, and the S$258 Sultan's Facial), scalp treatments for hair loss and sebo control at S$159 each, and even classic manicures and pedicures. It is a one-stop grooming destination, which is unusual for a barbershop. Their Barba Italiana products add an Italian touch to the British-inspired aesthetic.

The pricing reflects the positioning. A Deluxe Haircut runs S$59, the Sultan's Cut is S$81, and the full Sultan's Experience (haircut plus shave plus extras) tops S$140. That is premium territory, but the reviews consistently describe it as worth the spend. If you are after something more affordable from the same team, their sister brand We Are Sultans operates in Holland Village with a simpler, fuss-free service at lower prices.

The results speak through the reviews. Empire holds a perfect 5.0-star Google rating with over 1,100 reviews, which is a remarkable achievement for a small barbershop. Clients who have been going for five, six, even eight years describe Sean's consistency and attention to detail as unmatched. His beard work, in particular, gets singled out repeatedly.

A haircut with Sean costs S$70 for returning clients and S$90 for new clients. Other barbers (Carlo, Jay, Jeff, Zac) charge S$60 to S$70 per cut. It is not cheap, but the calibre is difficult to find elsewhere. One caveat: they only accept cash and PayNow, with a 4% surcharge for credit cards. Plan accordingly.

The pricing is surprisingly accessible for the experience. A Classic Haircut costs just S$30, and the Royal Haircut (their premium tier with extended consultation and finishing) is S$50. Beard trimming is S$25, and children's cuts are S$20. For an Amoy Street barbershop with this level of ambience, those numbers are competitive. It is one of the few premium barbershops in the CBD where you can get a quality cut without leaving S$80 or more behind.

Jermyn Street has been operating since 2014, and their clientele skews towards CBD professionals and expats who appreciate the blend of tradition and accessibility. If you work in the Telok Ayer or Tanjong Pagar area and want a reliable lunchtime barber with genuine character, this is a strong pick.

The team is diverse and well-trained. Barber Kris, in particular, gets name-checked in reviews for delivering consistently sharp fades and clean lines with impressive precision. The shop atmosphere is modern and relaxed, with a vibe that sits between a creative studio and a neighbourhood hangout. They also run their own barber academy, which speaks to how seriously they take the craft.

Pricing starts at S$65 for a standard cut (consultation, wash, cut, rinse, style), with senior barbers at S$75 and assistant managers at S$80. Under-18s get a discounted rate at S$50. Their combo packages, like Haircut plus Beard Line Up at S$135, offer decent value if you need multiple services. The 4.9-star Google rating from nearly 140 verified visitors confirms what the reviews describe: consistently excellent results.

The space itself is part of the appeal. Leather chairs, low music, hot towels, and an unhurried pace. Hassan personally trains every team member, and his senior barbers (Shahrul Nizam with 10+ years of experience, and award-winning Daniel Moses) maintain the standard when he is not in the chair. Their Google rating sits at a perfect 5.0 stars across 400+ reviews, which is exceptional for a barbershop of any size.

The British Barbers offers haircuts, beard trims, traditional hot towel shaves, threading, and waxing services. Haircuts start from S$85 with a senior barber and S$105 with Hassan himself, and you book through their website or on WhatsApp. They also cut on-site at offices, homes and hotels anywhere in Singapore, bringing the full kit and a headrest Hassan designed to fit any chair. Open seven days a week, including Sundays.

What truly sets Gentleman's Cuts apart is their private grooming service. Starting from S$350, they will send a barber to your home, hotel, or office. It is aimed at busy executives, VIPs, and anyone who values time over everything else. Their in-shop services include classic haircuts from S$50, plus beard grooming, hot towel shaves using Truefitt and Hill products, and facial treatments designed specifically for men's skin.

The shop aesthetic is clean and professional without being stuffy. It is a barbershop that works for the CEO who needs a quick trim before a board meeting and the expat who wants a reliable neighbourhood barber. If you travel for work or live between different parts of the city, the multi-location model makes Gentleman's Cuts a practical everyday choice.

Speaking of price, DeepCuts is one of the most affordable quality barbershops on this list. Haircuts run around S$30, hot towel shaves S$25, and beard trimming S$20. For a shop with a 4.7-star rating from nearly 300 verified visitors and a 94% recommendation rate on Facebook, those numbers represent genuine value. The trade-off is that they operate by appointment only, and they are closed on Fridays.

Clients frequently praise the meticulous attention to detail, with barber Maya getting particular recognition for consistently clean fades and sharp lines. If you work or live in the Outram, Chinatown, or Tiong Bahru area and want a quality cut without the premium barbershop markup, DeepCuts should be your first call.

The pricing is refreshingly transparent. Haircuts start at S$40, beard trims at S$15, and hot towel shaves at S$35. No service exceeds S$50. For a barbershop with this much personality in a prime Joo Chiat location, those are fair numbers. Bookings are recommended through their website, though walk-ins are accepted subject to availability.

Reviews consistently highlight two things: the quality of the actual cuts and the absence of hard-selling. The Panic Room stocks a serious range of grooming products, but they let you browse without pressure. Their 4.7-star rating from 282 verified visitors reflects a loyal following among east-side residents and anyone who appreciates a barbershop that feels more like a community spot than a transaction.

Their Signature Haircut costs S$55 (S$43 for students with a valid local student card), and the full service includes consultation, wash, cut, style, rinse, blow dry, and massage. Hot towel wet shaves are S$50, beard trimming S$40, and hair colouring S$120. A smart loyalty feature: show your receipt from your last cut within two weeks and get S$15 off. That effectively drops a returning client's cut to S$40.

Splice also offers a mobile barbering service where they send a barber to your venue, which is useful for weddings, corporate events, or anyone who cannot make it to the shop. The overall experience is not going to wow you with personality or interior design, but it will give you a clean, professional haircut at a fair price in a convenient location. For many clients, that is exactly what they need.

Pricing is structured simply. A basic clipper cut (one guard all over) costs S$18. A wash, cut, and style is S$48. The premium tier, which includes a haircut, wash, head massage, and shoulder massage, runs S$68. Those numbers make The Good Guys one of the most accessible quality barbershops on this list, especially for clients who want more than a budget chain but do not want to pay CBD prices.

They are open daily, with extended hours until 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays, which adds flexibility for clients with busy schedules. The shop also sells grooming products online. If you are in the Little India, Bugis, or Rochor area and want a barbershop that combines international-level skill with honest neighbourhood pricing, The Good Guys earns its name.
