Our Story

Cutting hair inSt Kilda since1991.

Edward Scissorhands is the longest established barber shop in the St Kilda and Balaclava area. Three decades on, we’re still cutting the way we always have: by hand, by ear, and with the kind of care that only comes from a team who actually loves what they do.

Skin fades, hot towel straight razor shaves, classic boys cuts, beard sculpts. Eight licensed barbers, each with their own specialty and each obsessed with their craft.
