Cut like it's an art form.
Reviewers call Hamid an artist before a barber. This is what the chair does.
Classic Cuts & Fades
Skin fades, scissor cuts, pompadours and everything between, shaped to your head rather than a template.
Beard Trims
Lines, lengths and shape kept sharp, finished properly so the cut and the beard work together.
Freestyle Line Designs
Custom line work and design details cut in, from subtle part lines to full freestyle patterns.
The Full Experience
Vintage chairs, hand-painted murals and a proper barbershop vibe. Walk-ins welcome, seven days.
Straight off the chair.
Pompadours, skin fades, mohawks, beard work and freestyle line designs. Every photo here is a real customer.
“He just smiled and said I got it. I haven’t been to any other hairdresser since.”

Antique chairs, hand-painted walls, proper barbershop.
Brass and green-leather chairs that have been cutting hair for decades, murals painted across the mirror walls, a barber pole in the window and a neon sign on Great North Road.
In the shop’s own words: Nau mai, haere mai, maliu mai to Unique Cut 48. We proudly support the West Side!

“Hands down the best barber experience ever! My boyfriend walked out with the freshest haircut and beard trim — it looked absolutely amazing. Hamid is incredibly skilled and treats his work like true art. The service, the vibe, and the attention to detail were all top-notch. You're not just getting a haircut, you're getting a full experience.”

“I wanted a specific haircut but couldn't articulate what it was. I shopped around many hairdressers but couldn't find any good one. When I first walked in Unique cut 48 more than 3 years ago, I explained this to Hamid and he just smiled and said I got it. I haven't been to any other hairdresser since. Hamid is an artist before a hairdresser, and he's an evolved human being before an artist. The right haircut, the right vibe, the right place.”
