Crafting the Future of Barbering in Queenstown and Beyond

Gents Ltd. is a multi-faceted grooming company based in Queenstown, New Zealand — home to premium barbering services, modern men's haircare retail, and New Zealand's leading private barbering academy. What began as a single barbershop has grown into a full-scale grooming ecosystem, known for its commitment to quality, consistency, and elevating the standard of men’s hair services across Aotearoa.


Gents Barbershop Queenstown – Our Foundation Since 2018

 

Founded in 2018, Gents Barbershop on Shotover Street was born from a vision to create a space where men could experience traditional grooming in an authentic, elevated setting. More than just a haircut, Gents became known for its premium service, refined environment, and focus on craftsmanship.

Our barbershop features antique chairs, hardwood floors, and a warm scent of leather, talc and tonics — paired with complimentary beverages and conversation. We specialise in:

  • Men’s haircuts & skin fades
  • Beard trims, shaping & line-ups
  • Hot towel cut-throat shaves
  • Traditional grooming rituals

Our team of international barbers is passionate about the craft and committed to delivering consistency, style and personal care — making Gents Barbershop one of Queenstown’s most respected hair and grooming destinations.
