Bruce's Barber

Located in the heart of the Thames Street shopping district in Ōamaru is the ultimate gentlemen’s grooming experience, Bruce’s Barber. Named for owner Samara’s late father, Bruce, this modern masculine space is popular not only among locals but visitors who find themselves in need of a tidy-up whilst on holiday.

This is a barbershop with a difference, starting with the stylish interior of the space, from exposed brick walls, muted colour palette and lux finishings. Next in the mix are the whisky tastings or beer on arrival you can enjoy at Bruce’s Barber, definitely stepping things up a notch from your average haircut.

The highly trained staff also offer a variety of specialised grooming services that continues to elevate the experience and creates an uplifting space that men look forward to coming to. It’s these extra details that set Bruce’s Barber apart from the rest. Samara is excited to be part of a growing scene in Ōamaru and can’t wait to see the town grow further and more epic businesses join in on the action.

So next time that beard’s feeling a bit untamed or your locks are in need of some maintenance, take yourself along to Bruce’s Barber, and as you sip away on your whisky-tasting or cold beer, you’ll be so glad you did.
