Barbers Near Berkhamsted, Just 15 Minutes Away in Chesham
One road over the hill through Ashley Green and you are on The Broadway. Four Senior Barbers, every one bookable by name and a shop that opens seven days a week.
A Short Drive for a Barber You Will Stick With
Berkhamsted and Chesham sit about six miles apart, joined by a single road over the hill through Ashley Green. For anyone in Berkhamsted, Northchurch or Ashley Green looking for a barber they can rely on, that puts Broadway Barbers around 15 minutes from the front door.
The shop has been on The Broadway in Chesham since 2001. Four Senior Barbers work the chairs seven days a week and each of them has their own diary on Booksy. The person who cut your hair last time is the person who cuts it next time, which is the whole point of finding a barber worth travelling to.
This page covers the practical side of the trip: how to get here from Berkhamsted, where to park, when to come and what it will cost once you are in the chair.
Book the Barber, Not Just the Slot
Dan, Harry, Ann and Catherine each have their own Booksy profile. Pick the barber you want, see only their availability and reserve their chair. No being passed to whoever is free when you arrive.
Open When You Are Actually Free
Saturday starts at 8am, Sunday runs from 10am to 2pm and Thursday stays open until 8pm. If the working week makes a daytime haircut impossible, there is still a slot that fits.
Prices You Know Before You Travel
An adult haircut is £20.50 and a skin or taper fade is £24.50. The rates are the same across all four barbers and the full menu is published on the price list, so there are no surprises at the till.
