Located at 920 Commissioners Road East in a commercial plaza, Akoul’s Barbershop is one of East London’s most trusted grooming destinations, with more than 700 Google reviews behind a near-perfect average. Abdallah Akoul runs the shop alongside barber Tetiana, and you choose which of them cuts your hair at the point of booking.
What sets the menu apart is how seriously the shop treats the zero fade. Rather than folding it into a standard cut, Akoul’s runs a separate zero-fade line: a zero-fade haircut, a zero-fade beard trim, and a combined package, each priced and timed on its own. Alongside those sit classic cuts, beard trims, and a beard shave the shop finishes with a deliberate touch of pampering.
The shop is open seven days a week, with later Thursday and Friday hours to 8 PM and a Sunday afternoon window that many London barbershops do not offer. Booking runs through their own website, where you pick the service and the barber together, and walk-ins are welcome around the appointment book.
Core Services: Classic haircuts, zero-fade cuts, skin fades, tapers, beard trims, zero-fade beard trims, and beard shaves.
Atmosphere: Professional, dependable and family-friendly, with a booking flow that lets you choose your barber.
