Love the resurgence of this trend. What about some a funky retro shave kit, shave soap, beard oil or moustache wax as a groomsman gift? We have all of the above, beautifully designed, on offer! http://www.maicreation.com.au

Hi Tamarin, these are some of the famous barber shops in Melbourne, and they are excellent in their job. But recently, I have been to one of the other renowned barber shops in Melbourne – Man Oh Man. I must say they did a great job. My friend referred this barbershop, so I thought to give a try. And I am entirely impressed with their work. They had a very relaxing environment and offered complimentary beverages while grooming your personality.

Amazing blog!!! Keep up the same!!!

Stay in the loop!
