    Just wondering if you need an appointment to get your hair cut there? The site says you do except on Saturdays but someone on facebook said you could just walk in and wait most of the time.

    Also what about retro on denmark street?

    I don't go to Figaro often but on the odd occasion I've been there I didn't have an appointment, you can expect to q though for quite a while!

    Same with Retro, only been once or twice but no appointment needed!

    Very Expensive in there .Great Competition in town these days with the influx of the Pop up Barbers!

    Agreed, Figaro prices are a good 7/8€ more then anywhere else in town and personally I've never found the haircut to be anything special!

    I don't know how much they charge, the average around town is between €15 and €17 I reckon so they're somewhere around that bracket Id say!

    Retro is the best barber in town IMO.

    You don't need an appointment for Figaros however if you don't want to be waiting for ages I'd recommend you make one or else go in early in the morning. I definitely think they are worth the price they're only a few Euros more than most other barbers. I would not recommend Retro any time I've been in there is has always been hit and miss some days you could get a good hair cut some days they could butcher you. This is never happened me in Figaros they are extremely consistent.
