Welcome to King of Clippers
ESSENDON’S FIVE STAR BARBER
A King's Tale
Founded on the principle that not all men enjoy getting their hair cut. We’re here to change that.
King of Clippers combines the atmosphere of an old world gentleman’s barber, with cutting edge trends in male grooming. As soon as you step inside you’ll know that it’s more than just another hipster hangout, an hour here is as comfortable and authentic as a catch up with an old friend. The team are masters in their craft, with over 30 years experience and a second-generation pedigree of precision barbering.
Whether or not you usually enjoy a trip to the barber, you’re bound to enjoy the post-shave drink and royal treatment. King of Clippers is a place where guys wind down with a beer and a chat, discussing everything from footy to business, philosophy to mental health. Tony will welcome you like family, with his infectious personality and classic European charm. King of Clippers provides a gentleman’s experience at any age, making sure you walk out the door again looking and feeling your absolute best.
