What a Men’s Haircut Costs in London, Ontario
Across the 51 barbershops listed in this directory, a standard men’s haircut in London, Ontario runs roughly $20 to $45, with most shops sitting between $28 and $35. That spread is real rather than rounding: the same cut can cost twice as much depending on which side of the city you are in and whether the shop is a high-volume walk-in room or an appointment-led studio.
Of the shops we list, 10 are budget tier, 30 sit in the middle, and 2 are premium. At the lower end, Joecut and Barbershop and Berenice Barbershop start at $25, and Aces Barbershop does a classic cut for $29.99. At the top, Ox and Bow charges $45 for a haircut and Gold Standard runs a $100 package that bundles a cut, beard trim, hot towel shave and styling.
What the price usually includes
A standard men’s cut generally covers a consultation, the cut itself, a neck shave or razor line-up and a basic style. Beyond that, shops price separately. Adding a beard trim typically takes the total to $40 to $55. A hot towel shave is usually $25 to $45 on its own. Buzz cuts are normally the cheapest option, often $20 to $25, because they take half the chair time.
Walk-In or Appointment
London still leans heavily walk-in. 35 of the 51 shops we list take walk-ins, and only 6 are strictly appointment-based. That said, 29 shops now offer online booking through platforms like Square, Fresha, Booksy, Vagaro and Squire, so booking ahead is realistic almost everywhere even when it is not required.
The practical rule: if you want a specific barber, book. If you just want a good cut today, walk in. Busy stretches are late afternoon on weekdays and most of Saturday.
Discounts Worth Knowing About
Seniors are the best-served group. 24 shops publish a seniors rate, typically $5 to $10 off, with age thresholds usually set at 60 or 65. Several are specific: AK’s Barber Shop charges $20 for a seniors cut against $30 standard, and Suljey Barbershop does $30 against $40 for clients 65 and over.
Children are widely catered for, with 36 shops offering a kids or junior cut, usually $18 to $30 and often with an age cap around 12 to 14. Student discounts are rare, with only 3 shops publishing one, so it is worth asking rather than assuming.
Where to Get a Men’s Haircut in London
The city’s barbershops are not evenly spread. East London has the deepest concentration with 12 shops, followed by Downtown and South London with 7 each, then Wortley Village with 5. Byron and Hyde Park have 4 apiece. If you are in the north end, Masonville and North London are thinner but growing.
Downtown and Richmond Row skew trend-forward and slightly pricier. East London and South London are where the reliable, fairly priced, high-volume shops are. Wortley Village and Old East Village lean independent and craft-minded. Byron and Lambeth are quieter, relationship-driven village shops.
Men’s Hair Beyond the Standard Cut
Not every shop stops at cutting. A handful in London offer colour and grey blending, perms, keratin straightening, facials, eyebrow threading and waxing, which puts them closer to a men’s hair salon than a traditional barbershop. Suljey Barbershop runs facials and memberships, Precision Barbershop and Salon operates a full salon alongside the barbering, and London Barber Huts offers colouring. If you want more than a cut and a beard trim, those are the rooms to look at.
