Called around noon, got an appointment for 2:30 with Renee. Start to finish the entire interaction was amazing. So fun, so comfortable. Got my undercut cleaned up with a beautiful design, and my pixie short and messy again!Will absolutely be coming back again and I highly recommend Renee!Services: Head shave

Jack is phenomenal at what he does and we had a great conversation throughout my appointment. They also have the lowest prices I can imagine for high quality of service. Highly recommend this place for all your hair and beard needs.

I have been seeing Jack at Sheer Agony for the past 15 years. I’ve never left the shop without a clean fresh look and I’ve never left without a smile! This place is special. It’s never a dull moment whenever you step foot in Sheer Agony. I sometimes wish my hair grew faster just so I could have an excuse to stop by more often!

From Shear Agony Barber Shop

A little bit about us.. We are your traditional local Barber Shop with a 'Shear Agony' Flair... This Nanaimo Barber shop is an electric montage of character created by owner Alan Bethell's career in barbering spanning over five decades. Established in 2005 an we offer an old school approach in barber but we believe if you are a hair cutting artist that you are diverse in both women’s and men’s hair which we service to both. Named for the famous Norman Rockwell drawing of a boy getting his haircut, it truly is Shear Agony through a vision created by an eccentric man. Although the decor might be a bit crazy its an easy going atmosphere with a little banter, a place that you will want to come to again and again.
