\"\"<\/p>\n

The world today doesn\u2019t really want to go towards separating men and women. When it comes to your hair, however, it\u2019s still better if you visit a barbershop than to go to your girlfriend\u2019s\/the missus\u2019 favorite salon.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not that you hate salons, but there\u2019s a different vibe when you walk into a barbershop as compared to a salon. This is why we\u2019ve taken the liberty of going around and checking for the coolest barbershops in Manila where you can get your next sleek and dapper haircut:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The John Barbers Groomers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start off the list with somewhere really close. The John Barbers Groomers, located at Somerset Makati\u2019s main lobby, takes you away from your busy business day into a swanky barbershop that looks more like a lounge than a barbershop.<\/p>\n

A cut with The John Barbers Groomers may be far more than your barbershop across the street (P350 for their De Luxe Cut), but the attention that goes to each and every customer, along with the relaxed atmosphere they have, more than pays for itself; perfect if you\u2019re in an uber-hectic place like Makati.<\/p>\n

Main Lobby, Somerset Millennium Hotel Makati, 104 Aguirre St., Legaspi Village, Makati City

Felipe and Sons Barberdashery<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The word \u201cbarberdashery\u201d isn\u2019t something you\u2019ll find in the latest lexicon or the internet. It\u2019s something that the minds behind Felipe and Sons made up, and it\u2019s the perfect way of defining what their shop is all about.<\/p>\n

Felipe and Sons is a barbershop and haberdashery molded into one. Their cuts are done by professionals, and offer you something a lot more than a simple haircut. At P360 for their Cut & Rinse, that\u2019s not a bad deal. Once you\u2019re done with your cut, step up to their haberdashery for some bespoke suits to go with your perfect cut.<\/p>\n

The Thirsty Barber<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The minds behind Felipe and Sons just could not put up a barbershop by itself. Not that it\u2019s a bad thing, but we love how they combine the idea of a barbershop with something else. Case in point: The Thirsty Barber in San Juan.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a cross between a barbershop, courtesy of Felipe and Sons, and a speakeasy. A visit during the day is like a visit to Felipe and Sons sans the haberdashery, but come through the doors at night and you can enjoy a good cut AND good grub all in one place.<\/p>\n

Back Alley Barbershop<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Back alleys are usually a bad thing. But they can also be good, especially when it\u2019s a high-end barbershop. Back Alley Barbershop may not look that high end compared to others on this list, but it\u2019s the ambiance that gets everyone to come back.<\/p>\n

They pay attention to even the smallest of details, which is crucial given that they are one of the best barbershops this side of Metro Manila. Their P400 Cut and Wash gives you more than the standard cut: you\u2019re given a style to suit your needs, with a trademark barbers finish.<\/p>\n

G\/F, Alpha Salcedo Condominium, Bautista Street, Salcedo Village, Makati City

\n<\/em>11:00 am \u2013 9:00 pm<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Village Barbers and Supply Shop<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Village Barbers and Supply Shop is (sorry for lack of a better term) a clone of the Back Alley Barbershop in some aspects. It was put up by the same people behind Back Alley, though this time they are targeting townships popping up in and around the metro, like BGC, The Grove by Rockwell, and Nuvali.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s more to The Village than just the barbershop though. As the name implies, you can get more than just a Cut and Wash (P400); you can also get products for the #BetterDude from brands like Baxter of California, Imperial Barber, and J.S. Sloane. Plus points for each service coming with a cup of hand pressed coffee or a bottle of Asahi Super Dry.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Titan Barber Shop<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Titan is known more for carrying some of the best-known basketball brands known to man. It\u2019s usually a place where you get shoes and other gear, but did you know you can also get your hair done at Titan?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s only available in four branches, making it feel that much cooler to be in one. You can talk basketball around these barbers and other customers for hours at a time, all while being surrounded by the best gear you can get. Combine that with great service that includes a traditional haircut, quick rinse, and shampoo and you get a well-deserved cut and style for only P300.<\/p>\n

Slick Barbers Co.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One of Makati\u2019s finest is located a bit more than a hop, skip, and a jump away from your comfy office space in the CBD. Slick Barbers Co. might look like your neighborhood barbershop, but it\u2019s more high class than what it looks like.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s probably the most affordable on this list at only P250 per cut, but trust us when we say you\u2019ll want to call that number and get a reservation. It\u2019s dubbed as one of (if not the best) barbershops in Makati, and it\u2019s easy to see why. Men line up for at most 2 hours just to get their hair done!<\/p>\n
