Finding a good barber is one thing. Finding one your kids actually *want* to go back to? That's something else entirely.
Studio H in Horndean has cracked the code. With a perfect 5-star rating from over 550 Google reviews, they've built something rare: a barbershop that's equally welcoming to nervous children, sensory-sensitive kids, and adults who just want a great cut at a fair price.
More Than Just Haircuts
Walk into most barbershops and you'll find a familiar scene — buzzing clippers, sports on TV, maybe a bit of banter. Studio H has all of that, but there's something else: patience.
"Baggy was awesome and really helped my Autistic son with his nerves and sensory issues. He managed to have his first haircut using clippers thanks to Baggy. Worth the drive from Portsmouth for the service and value!" — Billy F., Google Review
That's not a one-off. The reviews are filled with similar stories — barbers taking their time, remembering preferences between visits, and making anxious kids feel comfortable.
The 9-Year-Old Seal of Approval
Adults can be polite about mediocre haircuts. Kids can't.
"My son usually hates having his haircut but came out today and said 'I think Baggy is the best barber I've had'. And 9 year olds don't lie!" — Laura B., Google Review
"My boys both said it was the best barber ever and they want to always come back to this place." — Karolina J., Google Review
When children are asking to go back to the barber, you know something's working.
Women Welcome Too
Barbershops can feel like men-only spaces. Studio H actively challenges that.
"As a woman, barbershops can seem intimidating but they were extremely welcoming and friendly. They listened carefully to what I wanted and delivered better than expected." — Amy P., Google Review
Whether you're after a short style, a fade, or just a tidy-up, they'll take the time to get it right.
Value That's Hard to Beat
Here's the kicker: it's not expensive.
£32.50 for a cut and style for an adult AND a child. In 2025, that's remarkable. Most places would charge more than that for a single adult cut.
Quality service, family-friendly atmosphere, and prices that don't make you wince. It's a combination that explains why people are driving from Portsmouth, Havant, and beyond.
The Team
Two names come up again and again in the reviews: Baggy and Jung.
"Jung was so nice with my boys... Thank you Jung and Studio H and happy to see you again."
"This is the best barber I have ever been to... Jung was extremely professional and a really nice guy just to talk to. 11/10" — Finnley S., Google Review
A great barbershop is only as good as its barbers. Studio H clearly has the right people.
