In the 1930’s, visiting the barbershop was a more refined and ritualistic affair. The barbers was the social hub of the city, a place for men to meet up and banter, while cool jazz played in the background and the scent of Bay Rum floated on the air. At the barbers, a fellow could take time out of his day to sink back into a deep leather chair and be pampered by a master barber. Often, men would take their son to the barbers to experience the milestone of their first real shave.

The barbershop was an important part of every man’s life.

Today, this old-world approach to barbering is infused in everything we do; from the vintage chairs and checkerboard floor, to the cut-throat razors for that perfect beard trim. But while some things remain the same, we’re certainly not stuck in the past. At all of our Grand Royal Barbers locations in Sydney, we embrace the latest technology and are always on top of the trending styles and products.

The only thing that never changes is the way we make a chap feel: Grand.
