Keep your cut sharp between visits with a precise back and sides tidy carried out on dry hair. Clean lines, smooth blending and a natural finish, without touching the length on top.
More information
What's Included
A focused tidy to refresh the outline and keep your style crisp between full haircuts.
- Quick consultation to confirm length, taper and neckline.
- Clipper work and scissor over comb to refine the back and sides.
- Tidy around ears and sideburns for a clean outline.
- Tapered or natural neckline to suit your style.
- Seamless blend into the top, leaving the top length unchanged.
- Dry finish with light product if needed.
- Advice on maintenance and when to book your next tidy.
Who It's For
If your hair grows out at the sides before the top needs attention, this is for you. It suits short back and sides, faded styles needing a quick refresh, and longer top looks that only require the sides tidied. Helpful if the top is fine and you want to reduce bulk at the sides to balance the look.
Duration & Appointment Timing
This service takes around 15 minutes and is focused on efficiency and accuracy. Please arrive with clean, dry hair for the most precise result. If you want the top cut or a restyle, book a full haircut so there is enough time.
Aftercare & Maintenance
Wash and style as normal. Use lighter product on the sides to keep the shape neat. To maintain a sharp finish, book every 2 to 3 weeks, or sooner if your hair grows quickly. If you cycle or wear a helmet often, a slightly shorter interval helps keep the outline tidy. Book with Peter Joannou Barber Shop on 01273 328799, or visit us at 40 Middle St, Brighton, East Sussex BN1 1AL.

Exceptional. I'm not a fan of this stuff and certainly did a good job of swaying me - ended up with haircut and beard trim that look (in my opinion anyway) awesome. Service was impeccable and unintrusive. Thoroughly recommend.

My first time to Peters and I was so impressed.What was most impressive was Peter , a true gentleman , no atttude like a lot of the barbers I’ve used in Brighton.Peter did a fantastic job of my hair and beard and to top it off they had my favourite product Jack Blacks , this will definitely be my choice of barber in Brighton.

I got there for the first time on a Monday with 15 min to spare and it was already late and was met by a friendly guy and should have booked for the next day but I returned the following day and he was just finishing cutting a client when the other barber offered to do my hair and I was a bit reluctant But I only had a trim on the sides which he did a good job of but it took 10 min so I was unpleasantly surprised to pay £17 when I did not have a proper cut In Portugal one of the best hairdressers charges €20 and takes an hour to cut my hair including a wash so I gladly tip them €5 So it was over the top but next time I will wait to get a proper full on cut if they are going to charge me for the full amoiunt
