More Than a Haircut.
An Experience.

Blade & Co. was built on a simple belief — that getting a proper haircut should feel like an occasion, not an errand. We opened in the Northern Quarter in 2018 and have been doing things the right way ever since.

Every barber here is trained in the traditional craft. Every client leaves feeling like the best version of themselves. We take our time because the work deserves it.

What Our
Clients Say

"Best barbershop in Manchester. No question. I drive across town specifically to come here. The Royal Shave is an experience every man should have."

James R.Verified Google Review

"I've tried every barbershop in the Northern Quarter. Blade & Co. is on a completely different level. The attention to detail is something else entirely."

Common Questions

Do I need to book in advance?

We strongly recommend booking in advance, particularly for weekends. We do accept walk-ins when we have availability but cannot guarantee a specific time or barber. Booking takes two minutes and guarantees your slot.

How long does a cut take?

A Classic Cut takes around 45 minutes. We never rush. The time listed for each service is a guide — if something takes a little longer because it needs to, we take the time. You will not be hurried out of the chair.

What should I bring to my first visit?

Just yourself. If you have reference photos of a style you like, bring those along — it helps us understand exactly what you are after. First visits always start with a consultation before we touch anything.

Do you cater for all hair types?

Yes. Our barbers are trained across all hair types and textures. If you have specific requirements or concerns, mention them when booking and we will make sure the right person is ready for your appointment.

What is your cancellation policy?

We ask for at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Last minute cancellations mean another client loses their slot. A quick call or message is all it takes and we will always do our best to rebook you quickly.
