Our Story
A Turkish barbershop in the heart of the Headland
Old Town Barbers opened its doors on Northgate to bring proper Turkish barbering to Hartlepool’s Old Town. Everything we do is hands-on: clippers, scissors, cut-throat razor, hot towels and time taken over every head that sits in the chair.
Mustafa trained in the Turkish tradition, where a haircut is never rushed and a shave is a ritual rather than a quick scrape. That is the standard we hold ourselves to every day, whether you are in for a £12 trim on your lunch break or the full £29 Royal Package.
You will always find a warm welcome, an honest price and a clean, friendly shop. No appointments and no fuss — just walk in, take a seat and let us look after you.
Our Values
What we stand for
Turkish Tradition
Hot towels, cut-throat razors and hand-finished detail — barbering the way it has been done for generations.
Fair, Honest Prices
£12 for a haircut, £7 for OAPs and £9 for kids. Everything is on the board, with nothing hidden.
Walk-Ins Welcome
No appointment system and no waiting weeks for a slot. Come in when it suits you, six days a week.
Every Style, Every Age
Skin fades, scissor cuts, beard work, kids cuts and OAP trims — everybody leaves looking sharp.
Clean & Comfortable
Fresh towels, sterilised tools and a tidy shop, every single day we are open.
Time Taken, Not Rushed
We would rather you waited five more minutes than left with a cut that had been hurried.
