Klean Kut 5xd is a barber at 2A Fifth Ave in Claudelands, Hamilton, holding a 4.5 Google rating. Barbers work mainly with clippers and scissors, so they suit anyone after a short, sharp cut — fades, tapers and beard trims are the bread and butter, while salons tend to handle longer styles and colour. The difference between an okay cut and a good one often shows a fortnight later: a skilled barber cuts around growth patterns and cowlicks and leaves weight where the hair needs it. Regulars know this, which is why they stick with one barber who remembers exactly how the last cut was done. For Claudelands locals, a well-rated barber on Fifth Ave makes keeping a fresh cut an easy part of the neighbourhood routine.
