I discovered the Chop Shop, fabulous decor, even better vibes & music. Received a free delicious coffee whilst I waited for my son & he got a free drink afterwards. Fabulous service, really friendly & accommodating staff. My favourite barbershop in Bloemfontein.
Best barber in Bloem. Excellent service and price. Credit to Gul for the undercut work. 10/10. Hands down the best barber in Bloemfontein, the experience as well as the service is the best in Bloemfontein.
Best haircut and beard grooming I had in years. Professionals doing modern styles and new trends the old fashioned way. They fixed a bad haircut and cut it exactly like I originally wanted it. Excellent service and barbershop.

trending hairstyles

Looking for the latest haircut for men? How about a new hairstyle? Or maybe you just want to get inspired by trendy men’s haircuts? We give you the lowdown on the hair trends for men.

have questions ?

We want to make your GROOM experience as easy as possible so we have put together the most frequently asked questions. Hopefully this helps you.

Whether you are wondering what type of services we can offer, or if you have a more specific question in mind, you’ll find the answers to many frequently asked questions here. Otherwise, we welcome you to call or stop by our barber shop.

No, we accept walk-in clients every day. However, our barbershop can get busy so clients are recommended to phone ahead whenever possible.

Typically we are busiest in the morning and evening. Wait times are usually the shortest in the early afternoon.

We of course feel there are many things. First of all we focus on delivering the best possible customer service and pay special attention to the quality of our services but also realize that men do not want to spend hours sitting in the barber chair. Secondly, we want to be better everyday and that’s why we educate our barbers in our weekly trainings where we work to improve our barbering.

When coming for a haircut the first time, we recommend to take our Gents Cut 45min service. We will have more time for consultation to make sure you will get the best possible haircut. Then in the future when you get Gents Cut (30min) which will be enough if you visit us on an approx.  4 weeks cycle.

For our beardly friends we recommend to get the Hair & Beard Special 40min beard shaping service. We will have good time to shape your beard and to trim the beardline with a straight razor.

Please also check out our services where we have put together our most popular services.

The Executive Contour

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

It’s not a cut. It’s a tool to get what you want. Rules boardrooms. Does awfully well in bedrooms, as well.

Get it:

The Executive Contour is a classic men’s cut. It’s a bit like a Hard Part Pompadour, but without the hard part and with considerably more length on the sides and back, so you can’t see scalp. Consider starting with a clipper guard of four. You can always cut it closer after that. The Executive Contour works with or without a hard part, depending on how structured you want it to appear.

Build it:

1. Scrub a towel over your hair, leaving it only slightly damp.

2. Use a comb to create a smart part, straight back from your hairline to your crown.

3. Blow the whole mess dry, maintaining the parting, using a Vent type brush to add a bit of a natural wave. 

4. When everything’s dry, smooth Reuzel Green Pomade evenly through your hair.

5. Comb The Executive Contour into place.

6. Use your fingers to create a natural curl in the bangs, laying it back against the hair on top. After all, there isn’t a single titan of industry who isn’t a bit of a rascal when he needs to be.

The Junior Contour

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

Somewhere along the way, every l’il rascal starts to transform into a proper scumbag. This isn’t just a cut, it’s a rite of passage.

Get it:

Have the young gentleman tell his barber he wants his hair short on the back and sides, but rather long and thick up top. The intent is to create a natural side part.

Build it:

1. Shampoo with REUZEL 3-in-1 Men’s Tea Tree Shampoo. (Because lord knows boys don’t stand still long enough for proper conditioning.)

2. Thoroughly towel-dry the hair.

3. Use a comb to create a side part, and then blowdry the hair on top brushing up and back as you do.

4. Scoop out a liberal amount of Reuzel Red Pomade and smooth it through the hair, working from crown to tips.

5. Now comb the whole mop back into place, sweeping the long bangs up and back over the opposite side of the head.

6. Snap a photo now, dad. Because if your lad’s anything like ours, he won’t be returning quite as clean as he left.

The Scumbag Boogie

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

Calling Jay Gatsby. This is the look that flattened women’s hearts during America’s Golden Age.

Get it:

The Scumbag Boogie is in every Reuzel barber’s wheelhouse. If you find yourself elsewhere, ask for a high fade and a relatively high side part. Tell them you want enough left up top to give your hair a bit of a wave.

Build it:

1. After a nice shower and daily shampoo, dry your hair with a towel. Use a comb to establish a clean part.

2. Blow dry hair with a vent brush, without lifting or creating excessive volume. (In fact, if you aren’t headed out for a bit, you can let the hair dry on its own.)

3. Once dry, apply a liberal amount of Reuzel Blue Pomade for a firm hold, smoothing it from the part sideways. Or use Reuzel Red Pomade for a hold that’ll loosen up after a solid hour of jitterbugging, if you know what we mean.

4. Comb hair into place, letting the teeth flow naturally with the wave of your hair. Let the good times roll.

The Vanguard Hairstyle

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

The full-bore slick back. No part. No fuss. Nothing standing between your face and the world about to be laid at your feet.

Get it:

A Reuzel-certified shop will clock just what The Vanguard is. But a lesser stylist, who knows? So tell them you want to comb your hair straight back, without any obvious blending or undercut.

Build it:

1. Apply a generous palm of REUZEL Grooming Tonic to clean, towel dried hair. 

2. Run a comb through your hair to make sure the tonic is spread evenly.

3. For an extra-straight look, blow dry while directing hair backward with a 7-9 row Denman type brush. If you’d rather keep just a bit of natural wave, use a vent brush instead.

4. Once that’s done, you’ll want to put in some product to lock The Vanguard down. Use Reuzel Blue Pomade, and let the pork do the work.

5. Comb everything backwards evenly, so there’s no visible part.

6. If you’d like a bit of height, use a hair pick to lift up the front and top. But in general, keep it smoothed back from your face. After all, the whole point of The Vanguard is looking like you got nothing to hide. Even if you do.

The Low Fade Pompadour

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

Keep it low, buddy. Get down to the scalp around the neck and ears. Then a speedy blend to create weight on the sides and back.

Get it:

Ask your stylist for a Low Fade Pompadour. The most common question you’ll get is, “How low do you want to go?” The proper reply is that you want the fade to blend one inch above your ears.

Build it:

1. Apply Reuzel Grooming Tonic to clean, towel dried hair. This’ll make your hair easier to control, and smell very nice indeed.

2. Use a comb to create a part, pushing the hair over and back.

3. Blow your hair dry, while using a 7-9 row Denman- type brush to direct your hair. The sides go backwards. The front goes up and then back over your crown.

4. When you’re done drying, scoop out a knuckle’s worth of Reuzel Blue Pomade for a clean, high shine. Or use Reuzel Pink Pomade, which will thicken your hair into pure grease.

5. Rub the product between your palms and smooth it through the hair, petting yourself like a good doggie from front to back, away from the part.

6. Comb everything into place, lifting your bangs up and back if you want even more height up front.

The Textured Long Crop

Popular Men Hairstyle

KNOW IT:

The textured long crop is a classic shorter at the sides and back with a bit of extra length on top haircut. Enough hair on the sides and back to cover the scalp and just enough length on top to show lift and texture. 

GET IT:

Tell your barber or stylist you just saw Steve McQueen in the movie “The Great Escape” and you’ve been inspired but you want the top a bit more texturized.  If they don’t know what you’re talking about, show ’em this picture.

BUILD IT:

Clean the textured crop haircut with one of our shampoos and condition the hair. Towel dry the hair and spritz on a small amount of Reuzel Spray Grooming Tonic. Comb the hair into place on the sides and back and tussle the top with your fingers. Allow to dry naturally.

For a strong textured top – use a dab of Reuzel Extreme Hold Matte Pomade and rub it into the longer hair on top until happy with the look. For a softer more natural look – use Reuzel Matte Styling Paste instead.
