VOL. VIII — A LARNACA OLD TOWN BARBERSHOP
A proper shave. A good sit-down. Nothing else.
Barbershop in Larnaca old town. Open since 2018.
THE SHOP — №01
We're behind Agios Lazaros Church, in a building from 1938. The chairs are Italian hydraulics from a Thessaloniki shop that closed in 1991 — they've outlasted everything.
We have two chairs. Two barbers. The hot towel's already warming when you sit down.
There's coffee if you want it, Greek or filter. No music unless you ask. The radio's there if there's a game.
“Not a salon. Not a grooming studio. A barbershop.”
SERVICES — 2026
No booking fee. No cancellation fee if you call ahead. Cash and card. No subscriptions, no packages.
Gift cards available — €30, €50, €80. Walk-ins welcome if a chair's free.
WHO'S HOLDING THE RAZOR — №02
PROPRIETOR
Trained in Athens and Istanbul. Uses only Dovo and Thiers-Issard straight razors. Has never used a cartridge razor professionally. Prefers silence in the morning, conversation in the afternoon.
BARBER
Former apprentice in a Nicosia barbershop for four years. Came to Larnaca for a weekend, saw the chair, asked for a job. Does the tightest edge-up in the district. Talks too much — his clients like this.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY — №03
Best shave I've had in thirty years of getting shaved. I told my barber in Nicosia. He wasn't thrilled.
“My son and I go together on the last Saturday of every month. It's become our thing.”
“Came in as a tourist from the UK. Came back the next day before my flight. Worth every minute.”
COME FIND US — №04
We're 2 minutes' walk from Agios Lazaros Church, behind the main square. Free street parking on Zigouri. Walk-ins welcome if there's a chair free — booking recommended for weekends.
