The Barber Shop sits on Grove Road in Mayfield, Blenheim, and holds a 4.6 rating from 76 Google reviews. It has a Facebook page. Barbering is its own craft, distinct from salon hairdressing: most of the work is done with clippers and guards, so it helps to know roughly how long since your last cut, or to bring a photo of the length you want. A good barber will taper the sides by hand, keep the neckline and around the ears tidy, and check the finished shape in the mirror before you leave. Regulars tend to stick with one barber who learns how their hair sits and grows, which is why a queue of familiar faces on a Saturday morning is usually a good sign. For Mayfield locals, a well-reviewed barber on Grove Road is a handy thing to have around the corner.
