A casual look at the homepage of this here blog and you’ll
see that there has been a bit of a beard obsession for the last month or so.
Yes, the beard is now so grizzly and I’m so scared of cocking up the shaping of
it that I asked the good folk at Ted’s Grooming Room if they would like to have
a crack at my beard so that on-going maintenance would be easier for me. They
of course jumped at the chance and so yesterday I ventured around the corner
from my office and slipped into the barbers chair at Ted’s Grooming Room – Charlotte Street.
Usually when I venture into one of the Grooming Rooms I opt
for The Full Ted, which comprises of a wash and cut, shave and eyebrow threading. With limited time, and a half-arsed attempt to grow my hair
out again I opted for a beard trim and shape on my visit during lunch on Friday. This would set you back £22.50 and takes around thirty minutes.
Drum roll please as the pictures speak much louder than any words that I could type!

Looking a state so
you don’t have to!
So, this is what I looked like the morning of my visit:
The final result? Bearded awesomeness.
So, a quick compare and contrast and it’s obvious to even
Stevie Wonder that Eren my nimble fingered barber performed a minor miracle. My beard is shaped and
trimmed to perfection, it feels better, it looks better and it's now in a place where I can use my own trusty beard shaping tool and a razor to keep it under control.
As an aside, how cool is the lighting?
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again about Ted’s Grooming Rooms – they offer a wide variety of treatments, they treat you like a king and their skilled barbers really do provide an exceptional standard of
service. They know their craft and they attain perfection every time in my
view. Throw in the Turkish massage and it's always an experience worth having.
As an aside, how cool is the lighting?
Bravo, and thank you.
