Inside the van

The van

One chair, one van, your doorstep.

MG Barbers is a barbershop on wheels. Everything you'd find in a good shop is in the back of the van: a proper barber's chair, clippers, a straight razor, hot towels and the kit to finish it right.

Book a time and the barbershop comes to you, at home or at work. No travelling across town, no sitting in a waiting room. Just a sharp cut and back inside before the kettle's cold.

Questions

Before you book.

Where do you cover?

Glasgow's south side, the city centre, the West End, the east end and nearby towns including Rutherglen, Cambuslang, East Kilbride, Hamilton, Motherwell, Bellshill and Coatbridge. Check your postcode on the booking page.

Do I need to provide anything?

No — the van has its own chair, power and kit. We just need somewhere safe and legal to park near your address.

How long does an appointment take?

A haircut, skin fade or hot towel shave is booked as one 30-minute slot. A cut plus a hot towel shave takes two back-to-back slots (about an hour). Ears and nose waxing can be added to any appointment.

Why are some slots unavailable for my postcode?

The van has to drive between customers. If you're far from the previous or next appointment, the neighbouring slot is kept free for travel — so availability depends on your postcode.

How do I cancel or change my booking?

Use the 'Manage booking' link on your confirmation page or email. You can cancel there and pick a new slot.

How much does it cost?

Haircut from £25, skin fade from £27, hot towel shave from £25, ears and nose waxing from £5 on top of any appointment. Combined services are the two added together. These are starting prices: the barber confirms the price with you before your appointment.

Do hospital or in-house visits cost more?

They can. For hospital visits and in-house visits, the price can go up to cover parking and the time it takes to find the ward, room or flat. Mention it when you book or ask for a quote, and he'll confirm the price first.
