Thank you Jackson for another great cut. I’m so glad I’ve found a barber who is highly skilled, listens to you and cares about doing a good job. Really chilled atmosphere too. Excellent service all round!

Your Questions

Straight Answers To Your Mullet Questions

Got a question? We’ve got answers. Here are a few common ones. If you need anything else, just give us a yell.

So how does it all work?+

In a nutshell, you book a specific time slot online. When you show up, your chair is ready for you, no waiting. We have a proper chat about what you want before we start, we do the cut without rushing, and then we show you how to maintain it. It's a simple, respectful process — the complete opposite of a hectic walk-in shop.

Can't I just get a cheaper or faster cut at a walk-in?+

You absolutely can, but we solve a different problem. Walk-in shops are built for volume and speed. We're built for quality, consistency, and respecting your time. You're not just paying for a haircut; you're paying for a guaranteed great result without the wait.

What if I don't know what haircut I want?+

Perfect. That's what the consultation at the beginning is for. Just tell us what you do for work and how much time you want to spend on your hair each morning (if any), and we'll guide you to a style that suits your head shape, hair type, and lifestyle. We're the barbers, so you don't have to be.

Can you guys actually cut my hair type (Afro/Asian/thick/curly)?+

Yes. This is one of the most important parts of our business. Our team is multicultural and has years of hands-on experience with all hair textures — from line-ups on afro hair to adding texture to thick Asian hair. We can confidently cut any hair that walks through our door.

What's the difference between this and a crew cut?+

The main difference is the fade. A classic crew cut is also short on the sides and longer on top, but it typically has a more conservative taper. Our fade buzz is sharper, often blending down to the skin on the sides for a more defined and modern look than most fade cuts.

Are you going to try and sell me a bunch of expensive products?+

Nah, that's not our style. We use high-quality styling products in the shop, and if you ask what we're using, we'll happily tell you and show you how to use it. Our focus is on giving you a great cut and the knowledge to manage it. No pressure and no awkward sales pitches. Ever.

How far in advance do I need to book?+

It varies, but our peak times (Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays) tend to book out a week or two in advance. Mid-week appointments are generally easier to get on shorter notice. As soon as you know when you want to come in, book it — you can always reschedule online if something comes up.

How long does a haircut actually take?+

We allocate between 40 to 70 minutes depending on the service, so there's plenty of time for a proper chat, a detailed cut, and a quality finish. This is our "No-Rush Guarantee" in action — we'd rather take an extra ten minutes to get it right than rush you out the door.

How much does a haircut cost?+

Our prices are fixed and listed on our online booking system. A standard haircut starts from $40, and fades start from $45. There are no hidden fees or surprises; the price you see when you book is the price you pay.

Do you do walk-ins at all?+

We are a strictly appointment-only business. This is the only way we can guarantee zero wait time for our clients who have booked in advance. On the rare occasion we have a last-minute cancellation, we might post it on our Instagram story, but booking online is the only way to secure a spot.

What if I'm running late for my appointment?+

Just give us a call or text on 0426 293 033 to let us know. We have a small grace period, but because our schedule is tightly booked to respect everyone's time, showing up significantly late might mean we have to reschedule your appointment.

Is there parking available?+

Yes, there's generally a good amount of street parking available on Pascoe Vale Road and the surrounding side streets. Just be sure to check the signs for any time limits, especially during peak hours.

Do you only do modern styles like fades?+

Not at all. While we are great with modern fading techniques, we are also highly skilled in classic barbering. We do plenty of traditional business cuts, scissor work for longer hair, and everything in between. The "Hooligans" name is about the vibe, not just one type of cut.

What's the difference between a skin fade and a normal fade?+

A standard Fade is a gradient blend that uses a short clipper setting (like a 0.5 guard) as its shortest point. A Skin Fade takes the hair right down to the skin using a foil shaver or straight razor for a sharper, more contrasted look.

What if I'm awkward or don't feel like talking?+

Mate, no problem at all. While we love a good yarn, we can also read the room. If you want to put your headphones in and chill out, go for it. If you want to chat, we're here for it. It's a relaxed, no-pressure environment. Your comfort is the priority.

Can I bring my kid?+

Absolutely. We offer "Little Hooligans" cuts for kids under 12. We're patient and great at making it a stress-free experience for them (and for you).

What products do you use?+

We only use professional-grade products that we've tested and trust. We tend to favour high-quality styling powders for texture and matte-finish pomades, but we have a range of options to suit different hair types and styles.

Are you just another hipster barbershop?+

Haha, nah. We just love what we do. The vibe is laid-back and everyone is welcome. We're more focused on being your friendly local spot that delivers a consistently great haircut than we are on being "cool." It's about community and quality craft, not being pretentious.

What's the re-booking process like?+

Easy. Most of our regulars just book their next appointment on their phone while they're still in the chair. Or, we can book it for you at the counter before you pay. There's no hard sell; we just make it convenient to lock in your next spot so you don't miss out.

Why the name "Neighbourhood Hooligans"?+

It's a nod to that sense of community and playful banter you find at your local spot. It's about being a bit rebellious against the grain of the typical rushed, impersonal haircut experience. We're serious about the craft, but we don't take ourselves too seriously.
