Our Journey to Excellence……

Our story began in 2007, when Suzie recognised a gap in Edinburgh’s grooming scene – a lack of high-quality men’s salons for those seeking more than a quick short back and sides at the local barber.
She knew that the modern man was looking for more: a personalised consultation, an indulgent shampoo with a relaxing head massage, top-tier service, and stylists skilled in both classic barbering and advanced scissor techniques. With a clear vision, Suzie set out to create a refined space where luxury salon experiences meet traditional barber expertise – a true haven for the contemporary man.

Passion for Perfection

At the heart of The Players Lounge is a deep passion for men’s hair and grooming, coupled with a commitment to helping every client look and feel their absolute best. We take pride in building genuine relationships with our clients, offering tailored barbering and salon services that meet all your grooming needs in one visit. Our experienced team, trained to the highest standards in both hairdressing and barbering, delivers exceptional results with a personal touch—ensuring you leave not just satisfied, but truly transformed.

A Legacy of Grooming Excellence

With over 18 years of experience, Suzie and the team have honed their skills under some of the industry’s most respected educators. Ongoing training is part of our DNA—because we know that when it comes to your hair, you deserve someone who is truly invested in getting it right. Our expert stylists and barbers are not only highly skilled but also committed to delivering unmatched customer care every time.

We’ve proudly earned our reputation as Edinburgh’s premier destination for well-groomed men, offering bespoke services that fuse barbering precision with salon luxury.

Our full range of barber services includes precision cuts, expert colour consultations, beard trims, luxury hot towel shaves, organic facials, manicures, and more—all delivered within our eco-conscious, high-end salon environment.

Experience Tailored Luxury

From the moment you arrive, we aim to create a calm, welcoming space where you can relax and unwind. Our stylish reception area, complete with magazines and style guides, sets the tone for a refined experience.
