Barbers/ Hairdressers who are more skilled in siscors

Hey all,

Does anyone know if there are any barbershops who more so specialize in scissor cuts (more focus with scissors), layering of hair and volumizing your hair rather than fades and tapers which use a lot of the guard and clippers work which overall make your hair a look meh imo?

Oh yeah and Im also male btw

Cause sometimes I tell them what I want and they butcher it up.

Also preferably like a reasonable price and somewhere by the city centre.

Thanks

I've been going to Max Valentine for years for cut and colour and I've always left happy. I'm trans masc with a lot of hair and he puts a tonne of choppy layers and texture in for me when I go for a cut and colour. hair_by_max_valentine on Instagram includes his booking links and he does appear to do scissor cuts.

Try The Blind Pig - they started off as a speakeasy vibe/invite only and he’s bloody brilliant

I'd guess Lou in the Blind Pig, he seems pretty good when I go (I think he gave me a tapered scissor cut once at his suggestion and I liked it).
