Lovely experience with great friendly staff. Immediately at ease as you enter the shop. It's warm, looks awesome and suddenly the stress of getting your haircut just... evaporates. @Rauri Barber gave me a hair wash and cut. I now feel and look fresh. There's a spring in my step.
Thanks sink and anchor!

Excellent service.
I was in town and wanted to get rid of my long hair for a buzz cut.
They guys did a great job. Did exactly what I asked for no more no less.

Traveling up from Manchester and was looking for a holiday trim, found this gem and was met with great service, easy to book in on the website, I had Alan cut my hair who made me feel welcome and was very down to earth.
Shall visit again when I'm back in Edinburgh!

Booked in to get a haircut via phone, very easy and straight forward. Most importantly haircut was of very good quality and reasonably priced. Nice music and vibe also. Would recommend if you’re in the area.

Really good haircut, and I say that as someone who rarely gets his hair cut.
Barber/owner really cares about what he's doing.
I need another cut, but I don't think I can justify the £120 train ticket from London 🤔

For long-hair lovers : very nice place , nice music , chilled and nice chat.
My barber was Alan , nice guy and took his time to make sure to not chop off too much hair and do the cut that I was looking for. Nice and clean job 👍🤙 .Recommended

Been there since the very beginning until I graduated last year. Every visit didn't disappoint me. One of the best, if not the best barbershop in town. Great footballing chats throughout the sessions as well. Will definitely pay them a visit again if I'm in Edinburgh. Cheers for the trims over the years Luke!

As someone who’s partially sighted it’s hard to go sorbet and enjoy the experience this place changed my perception very relaxed and genuinely a nice place to be the barber I had listened and took exactly what… I explained what I wanted and put it on my head I’m very impressed with the professional attitude and customer service I can honestly say this is the first time leaving a barber happy and sincerely impressed will recommend with the Too marks to any of my friends looking for a good trim cheers

Best haircut I've ever gotten.
Atmosphere is great. Very friendly staff with killer music and immaculate vibes. Barber made sure I got what I wanted and was very patient with my indecisiveness. Bit pricey but absolutely worth it for me, definitely plan to go again.

They're professional, friendly and if you ask for an haircut they do what you ask and not what they think. I tried plenty barber shops around Edinburgh, no doubt for me are the best.

Hidden gem of a Barbers in Edinburgh. Brilliant aesthetic in the shop, good chat and most importantly - a class cut and professional service every time. I've only had my hair cut by Alan but would trust anyone in the shop to deliver the service they are known for.

6 months on I'm still going and it has to be the best ever barber shop period. I've gotten cuts from both Luke and Jo. I've not gotten a cut from Stu, but he's a friendly lad and from what I've seen he gives a solid cut too. There's also drinks (alcoholic or otherwise), banter, and music to top off that wicked cut from a crew of skilled and good-natured lads. I also have some of the products they sell and these too are f****** awesome. I have the Matt pomade and Deluxe pomade from Uppercut Deluxe and not only do these products work and not leave residue, but smell

Booked a haircut and shave @ the sink & anchor and when I arrived early for my appointment I was taken immediately. Quick chat with Luke to ask about what I was looking for and then straight to it. While it was a simple cut with clippers, the dedication and detail was excellent. The shave was next and following me having a shave only 3 days before, there wasn't much for him to take off. The shave was excellent and when my face went cold, another hot towel was applied to make sure I was comfortable. All in all a great experience and now my go to barber whenever I am back home in Scotland
