The Panic Room, Geylang – Subscribe to Handsome
Jude and I needed a haircut. Sadly it looks like my usual barber has left Jermyn Street, so today I am trying The Panic Room, Geylang – Subscribe to Handsome. If you like grooming, retro and experiencing just the coolest barber joint ever then you have to come here and see the guys. A few new things for me, as you will see as you read on. This was just a brilliant experience, and that is what it is. It is an experience, that just happens to with a haircut and beard trim thrown in. It’s a must for all us Dandy’s out there.
311a Geylang Road – look for the grilled gate on the door and go to the 2nd floor. You MUST book, it is so so doubtful you could do a walk in – these guys are swamped. Make sure you bell them at 1800 GEYLANG (AKA 439 5264). They also have a very efficient WhatsApp booking service via +65 8228 9063. Get yourself to The Panic Room, Geylang – Subscribe to Handsome.
I went with Marvyn, or Muff I think could be his nickname. What a top guy he was. Wants to get in to writing so funnily enough we talked about blogs, EXMag etc. And to top it all, he dished out a bloody good haircut and beard trim to boot. Let’s have a look shall we… Here we go.

My boys are in heaven here. Bikes, skateboards, skulls, guitars, retro technology, and even Venom. Jude is a very happy chappy!!!

Coolest beard and hair products everywhere. I even bought a cut-throat razor today for those all important trims. There is nic nacs everywhere, your eye just keeps on getting caught and distracted. Music belting out too.Yep it is uber cool.

In goes the wee man. He really has ‘grown up’ of late. He loves this type of thing now. Not phased at all. Bless!

You know I think he really is enjoying the pampering…

Whereas across the way, the 50 year old is also ‘enjoying ‘himself…

“I’m sexy and I know it…”

Oh Jesus what’s happening??? Looks like I am melting. Nope I am just having my ears waxed. What the fuck!!! So in touch with my feminine side. Where’s the Brazilian I was promised? That’s a lot of money!!!

I feel like Ms Doubtfire. Apparently this will stop it growing back so fast. What Mervin is saying is that this may hurt more than having a tattoo. OMG what have I done to myself…

“And take a deep breath Brian…” said Mervin. Little did I know this is likely the same pain experience as giving birth!!!

I think my insides just got pulled through my hair follicles.

Bloody hell looks like the remains of a bar of soap in a maximum security prison!!!

Joking aside it was not that bad. I did shed a tiny tear, and maybe let a little bit of wee out, but hey that’s fine. Great job from the barber maestro. Thanks Mervin be seeing you again soon my friend!!!
It’s a must try gents. I loved every single minute of the experience. Hot towels, cold towels, cut-throat razors, pomades, retro, fantastic music, and just generally an absolutely cool experience and bloody good haircut and beard trim too. The Kennett boys will 1,000% be back to see the guys at The Panic Room, Geylang – Subscribe to Handsome. You should too – you know me. If you come I can pretty much guarantee you will -ENJOY!!!
