Established in 2012 in Hackney, Barberette is now a popular gender neutral barbershop.

Offering equal service – and pricing – to clients irrespective of gender, the team have created a safe and welcoming space for those wishing to experiment with their styling or just enjoy a trim in friendly surroundings.

Owner Klara Vanova says that she launched the business from her own frustration at not finding a place that would give her the haircut she wanted, and not feeling comfortable in the barbershop without haggling the price for her short haircut.

The team have built up a loyal following, with many LGBTI customers.
