Nailsea Barbers

Ho! Ho! Ho!
We’ve been fully booked for weeks now, but when Father Christmas rang us on Saturday to fit him in for his last head polish of the year before his big day, we couldn’t turn him down could we?

Wishing you all a fabulous Christmas and belting new year. Thank you so much for your continued loyalty, friendship and laughs.
Love to you all from Dave, Jon, Richard and the good looking, modest young fella.

(Thanks to our Father Christmas Colin for modelling for us and cracking me up)

BREAKING NEWS

Nailsea/Courtyard Barbers have decided to add another string to their burgeoning business empire bows by branching out into the world of the fashion and beauty industry…

I’m specialising in the procurement and styling of modern Haute Couture…
Jon is in charge of whacking on the old slap (Qualified plasterer is Jon👍🏽).

David Ramsay (MBE) is our Creative Director of hair, ladies’ beard trims and bikini waxing.

Our first customer was ecstatic with the result of her high end makeover, and says she’ll be back for a scrub up for her Christmas works party.
I think she looks absolutely bloody gorgeous.

Please phone for a consultation, but expect a minimum 4 week wait…

Beauty, Scotch Horn, Nailsea. January 17th-24th 2026.

( Ps the Dame is our old pal Andy Johnson❤️)

A home visit today in Banwell for one of our most loyal customers.

Unfortunately the “Great Raymondo” isn’t able to get to us anymore, so it was an absolute pleasure to see our 91 year friend, who’s hair we’ve been ruining for at least 28 years or so (since 1997). I think it’s the transformation cut of the year.

They don’t make many fellas like this anymore. He’s truly one of the best. We love you Ray.

See you before Christmas Ray, and remember it’s only another 9 years before you get your free haircut for life at 100….Love Andy and Jon # # #

(Ps you might even get your leg over tonight with your fresh Barnet😉) # # #

We can now reveal we will be joining forces with our old friend and Nailsea hairdressing legend Dave Ramsay of the Couryard Barbers (Bristol Rovers branch), starting on Monday 24th March.

This is without doubt the greatest British business merger since Elizabeth Duke bought out Ratners…

Unfortunately we have to move on from our current home of over 20 years (where did those years go?!)

But fortunately for us, the timing was perfect as Dave wanted to add some “youth” to his team of himself and Rich to bring the new average age down to a more sprightly 86…

As mere youngsters of 50 and 52 (I know, Jon had 4 very difficult paper rounds), we hope to keep the shop going for many years to come.

Dave has welcomed us immediately, wholeheartedly and very generously to his shop of 27 years. Thank you Dave.

Dave has been hairdressing over 50 years, and has been working in Nailsea since 1979. The poor sod.

As with the current trend for the influx of Turkish, Kurdish and Albanian shops in every village, town and city in the UK, we did wrestle with jumping on this bandwagon…

We nearly settled on identifying as Ali, Burak, Mehmet and Couscous of Wishy Washy Barbers and Launderers Plc. But as we’re all skint and have no dodgy money to clean, we will be called Courtyard with Nailsea Barbers.

The same booking system applies, same friendship, banter and shoddy service, just a change of location and more of us.

Thank you all so much and hope to see you all again soon.

Stay Happy!
Andy and Jon

Jon and I (Nailsea Barbers) are moving premises shortly.
We’ll fill you in next time you’re in the chair. Watch this space….

Only a few more appointments left until Christmas.
Don’t be a dipstick all your life and leave it until Christmas eve to see us.
Book within the next day or two, or you’ll end up going elsewhere like a total plonker, and youl’ll look like Baldrick for the next few weeks until we sort your basins out.
A very Merry Christmas and a Happy new year to all our wonderful customers.
Much love and appreciation from the loud and cuddly boss Jon at the back of the shop, and the very good looking and quiet one by the window xx

Our booking app has gone and had a massive moody, (temporarily technically knackered ) and is offline for maintenance.
We can’t even book you in manually. Hopefully the lovely people at nearcut will fix it soon. My advice is to go back to bed for a bit because it’s freezing, or possibly consider growing your hair longer.
Cheers, Andy and Jon

It’s that time of year again! Quality Christmas trees from S and R Burchill’s. £45 including delivery
