Pick your barber
Everyone here has something they’re known for. Read up, then book the one who fits, or take whoever’s free first.
Danny Okafor
Owner · Master Barber
Danny cut hair in Peckham and Soho for fourteen years before opening GentsLook in 2017. Sharp fades, afro and textured hair, and the shop’s hardest question: what actually suits you.
Marek Nowak
Senior Barber · Fades
Marek trained in Kraków and is the one the other barbers ask about blending. Clean skin fades, tapers and crops, and steady hands with nervous first-timers.
Yusuf Demir
Barber · Hot Towel Shaves
Yusuf learned the trade in his uncle’s shop in Izmir at sixteen. Cut-throat shaves, beard shaping and classic scissor work, and he’ll talk you through the finish if you want to keep it up at home.
Callum Reid
Barber · Scissor Work
Callum came through a Glasgow apprenticeship and likes hair with some length to it: textured crops, grown-out styles and restyles for anyone ready for a change.
Priya Nair
Grooming Therapist
Priya is a qualified beauty therapist who moved into men’s grooming after seeing how few places did it well. Facials, grey blending and scalp care, with plain advice and no hard sell.
How we work together
Different hands, one standard
The right barber for the job
If someone else here would do your hair better, we’ll tell you and swap you over. No egos.
Same standard at every chair
The same hygiene routine, the same care and the same price, whoever you book.
Years in the trade
Every barber here has at least six years behind the chair, and we still teach each other.
Reviews
What clients say
★★★★★
Went to Marek for a skin fade after a bad one elsewhere. He took his time, fixed the line at the back and told me how long it would hold. Booked again before I left.
Tom H. · Skin Fade
★★★★★
First proper wet shave of my life, on the morning of my brother’s wedding. Yusuf was calm, my neck has never been so smooth, and there wasn’t a single nick.
Adeel R. · Hot Towel Shave
★★★★★
Danny knows Afro hair and he actually listens. Hard to find both. The booking takes a minute, and I’m in the chair at the time it said.
Kwame B. · Cut & Beard
★★★★★
Priya sorted my skin out with one facial and a five-minute talk about what I was doing wrong. No pressure to buy anything.
James W. · Deep Clean Facial
★★★★★
I’d been putting off the grey for two years. The blend looks like me on a good day, and nobody at work could say what had changed.
Stephen M. · Grey Blending
★★★★★
Brought my lad for his first real haircut. Callum got down to his level, showed him the clippers and made it a good morning for both of us.
Joe P. · Boys’ Cut
