The craft
Years behind the chair. One standard — sharp.
The Old Boy is run on a simple promise: take pride in every cut and send you out looking better than you hoped.
Inside the shop
A proper barbershop — exposed brick, warm light, no rush
Walk in and it feels like a barbershop should: brick walls, soft lighting, a comfortable chair and a barber who actually listens before the clippers come out.
Iman has spent years perfecting his craft, and it shows — fades blended clean, scissor work that grows out well, beards shaped to suit your face. Whether it’s a quick tidy-up or a full restyle, you’ll leave sharp.

What Sheffield says
“Best barber in South Yorkshire.”
A 4.9 rating across 317 Google reviews — and counting.
In 5 years of living in England, I haven’t found a better barber. It honestly feels like he cuts every single hair individually and then polishes your head to perfection. I live in Rotherham and travel to see him because, in my opinion, he’s the best barber in all of South Yorkshire. Highly recommended — 100%

We’ve been bringing our son here for haircuts since he was 2.5 years old, and we’ve always had a fantastic experience. The team is incredibly patient, friendly and professional, making every visit comfortable and stress-free.

Best haircut I think I’ve ever gotten. Iman is very knowledgeable and cares about the details. He even offers a variety of drinks both hot and cold. Cannot recommend this place enough.
