FaderBoy is a hair and grooming spot at 1/697 Tweed Street in Invercargill's Newfield neighbourhood. Its offer is deliberately simple: haircut services — including a dedicated senior cuts category — delivered through individual appointments or group bookings that let you arrange a visit for yourself and others at the same time. The name wears the barber's craft on its sleeve, and the shop keeps the experience straightforward rather than fussy.
What really sets FaderBoy apart is its record. On its Fresha booking page the shop holds a perfect 5.0 rating built from 306 client votes — the kind of consensus that comes not from one great day, but from getting the basics right, visit after visit. For a neighbourhood shop, that volume of praise is its own recommendation.
Scheduling happens entirely online through Fresha: select your services, choose your professional, pick a time that suits, and confirm, with bookings handled securely through the platform. For Newfield locals and anyone across Invercargill looking for a reliably well-reviewed cut, it's an easy, friendly place to book — and one Southland has clearly taken to its heart.
On Tweed Street in Invercargill's Newfield neighbourhood, FaderBoy has quietly built one of the strongest reputations in Southland hair care. The numbers tell part of the story: a perfect 5.0 rating on its Fresha booking page, assembled from 306 individual client votes. A handful of glowing reviews can be luck. Three hundred of them, averaging a flawless score, point to something steadier — a shop that gets the basics right, every single visit.
The name says barbering plainly enough, and the shop keeps its offer refreshingly uncomplicated: haircut services, booked easily, delivered with care. There are no gimmicks to parse and no maze of options to navigate — just a straightforward menu anchored by a dedicated senior cuts category, alongside individual and group appointment options that make the shop accessible to almost anyone.
FaderBoy's listing is organised around two simple appointment types. Book an individual appointment and you are scheduling services for yourself — the classic solo visit. Choose a group appointment instead and you can arrange the visit for yourself and others at the same time, which makes short work of family trips, friends lining up together, or anyone who would rather not sit waiting their turn.
Within those appointments, the service menu includes a dedicated senior cuts category. That might sound like a small thing, but it signals something about how the shop sees its community: older clients are catered for deliberately, not as an afterthought.
Ratings on booking platforms are earned the hard way — one client, one appointment, one vote at a time. FaderBoy's 5.0 average across 306 votes suggests a customer base that keeps coming back and keeps sending others its way. For anyone new to Invercargill, or simply new to the shop, that kind of consensus is a useful shortcut: this is a place the neighbourhood has already vetted.
FaderBoy handles its scheduling entirely online through Fresha, and the process is deliberately simple. From the shop's Fresha page you select your services, choose your professional, pick a time that suits, and confirm. The whole flow takes a couple of minutes, and the platform notes that FaderBoy securely accepts online bookings through it.
One practical note: the public listing does not publish set opening hours, so the reliable way to see when the shop is available is to open the Fresha booking page and check the live calendar for open slots. Whether you book solo or as a group, the path is the same — services, professional, time, confirm.
