Want a men's haircut in Richmond? KOHORT Studio is at 234 Bridge Road, right in the heart of Richmond. Our independent stylists Billie and Sheree both specialise in men's and short cuts. This is not a quick barber chair, it is a precise cut with a colourist's eye, consulted properly and finished properly. You book the stylist directly.

Why Richmond men are looking past the barber

Richmond has always had good barbers. But a growing number of people here, particularly around the Swan Street tech offices and the Cremorne studios, are after something different. They want the precision of a barber combined with the shape literacy of someone who has spent years thinking about how hair sits, grows, and moves. That is what Billie and Sheree bring. Both have colour training, both specialise in short hair, and both approach a cut the same way they approach a colour job: from the consultation first.

KOHORT is a co-working salon. Every stylist here runs her own column and her own books. You are not going to a front desk and hoping for the best. You pick the person, you read her page, and you book with her.

What a men's cut looks like at KOHORT

It starts with a proper consultation. Not "how much off?" but a real conversation about your hair type, how it grows, how you wear it, and what kind of upkeep you actually want. Some clients want something they can run product through in the morning and be done. Some want a proper disconnected cut that takes shape as it grows. Some come in knowing exactly what they want. Some need the person across the chair to tell them honestly what will work.

From there, the cut is done with scissors or a combination of scissors and clippers, depending on what your hair actually needs. There is no rush. The finish is styled out so you can see the shape before you leave, and your stylist will tell you what to use at home if you ask. It is not a complicated answer, just an honest one.

Getting to KOHORT from Richmond

If you are in Richmond, 234 Bridge Road is already on your doorstep. We are a short walk from both Richmond Station and East Richmond Station, and the trams run along Bridge Road. A lot of our men's cut clients work in the Cremorne tech precinct just south along the Swan Street corridor and come in at the end of a workday or on a Saturday. Others are over from Burnley or Abbotsford and are in the chair within fifteen minutes of leaving home. It is genuinely one of the more convenient spots in the inner east to get a proper cut.

Which KOHORT stylists do men's haircuts

Billie is the founder of KOHORT. She specialises in short hair, colour, and editorial work, and does a lot of men's and gender-neutral cuts. If you want something with a considered shape rather than a trim, Billie is the one to read first.

Sheree specialises in short hair and pixie cuts, with a particular eye for precise, close work. She handles a lot of short cuts for men and for clients who want something sharp and specific. Her page has her current work.

Both Billie and Sheree run their own books at KOHORT. Read their pages, see whose work looks most like what you have in mind, and book from there. If you want a broader look at the team first, meet the team.

Men's haircut pricing and how long it takes

Men's cuts at KOHORT sit in the range you would expect for an independent stylist in inner Richmond, reflecting the consultation time and the level of finish. Your stylist confirms the price before she starts, so there are no surprises. Budget somewhere between forty-five minutes and an hour and a half depending on hair length, how much texture work is involved, and whether you are adding a colour service. Card, EFTPOS and Afterpay are all fine.

If you are thinking about combining a cut with a colour service, like a toner or a gloss, ask your stylist at consultation. It is a common combination and easy to plan in one session.

Frequently asked questions

Is KOHORT good for men's haircuts or is it more of a women's salon?

KOHORT is a unisex co-working salon. Billie and Sheree both specialise in short hair and men's cuts, so you are in the right hands. The difference from a traditional barber is that you get a stylist who reads shape and structure the way a colourist does, not just someone who goes shorter.

Do I need to know exactly what I want before I come in?

No. The consultation is there to figure that out together. If you come in with a reference photo, great. If you come in with "I don't really know, it's been a while," your stylist will ask the right questions and give you an honest recommendation based on your hair type and how it grows.

Can I book a men's cut and a colour service at the same appointment?

Yes. If you want a toner, a gloss, or something more involved like a colour service combined with your cut, mention it when you book or at the start of the consultation. Your stylist will plan the timing so both are done properly.

Where exactly is KOHORT in Richmond?

We are at 234 Bridge Road, Richmond. Richmond Station and East Richmond Station are both close. Trams run along Bridge Road. There is metered parking on Bridge Road and the surrounding streets if you are driving.

Is it worth coming from nearby suburbs like Cremorne or Burnley for a cut?

Plenty of our clients come from Cremorne, Burnley, and Abbotsford. From the Swan Street corridor in Cremorne it is a short walk or a quick drive. The calibre of the cut is worth the trip even if you are not already in Richmond.

How do I book a men's haircut at KOHORT?

Go to Billie's page or Sheree's page, read their work, and book directly through the stylist you want. Each stylist manages her own calendar at KOHORT.

How is this different from a normal men's haircut?

The difference is the consultation and the eye behind the cut. Both Billie and Sheree come from a colour background, so they read the structure of your hair, how it falls, and how the shape will grow out. It is a more considered process than a standard trim.
