New Ambassador Barber Parlour

Wander into the inner streets of Causeway Bay and step through the unassuming doors of New Ambassador Barber Parlour on the second floor of a classic tenement building. Inside, you are transported to the golden era of the 1960s and 70s, now led by master barbers from the legendary, now-closed “Chiu Kwun” in North Point. This hidden sanctuary preserves vintage Japanese hydraulic chairs, terrazzo flooring, and traditional porcelain washbasins.

The masters offer meticulous Shanghainese grooming—from precise cuts and sharp shaves to the iconic “Chui Bo” wave styling that defined mid-century “egg-tart” and pompadour looks. Here, a haircut becomes a ritualized retro experience celebrating the soulful craftsmanship of old Hong Kong.
