Messy Cut

You’re never more than a couple of minutes’ walk from a truly excellent Turkish barber on Green Lanes. For my money, though, the best is Messy Cut, a deceptively named institution that will keep you looking sharp. Just a short walk from Manor House station, it features cosy wood-panelled environs. A scissor or machine cut with hot towel treatment will set you back just £21, and it stays open until 7.45pm six days a week, so you can always nip in after work.
