Buddy's "Booger Sugar"
Light, matte, and easy to use. Gives you hold without turning your hair into a helmet. Good for lazy mornings or long nights out.
Finished the tub? Don’t bin it. Bring it back and we’ll refill it for less than you paid the first time. Less waste, less coin. Easy.

Buddy's "Breath"
Smells sharp, feels clean, and won’t burn your face off. A barbershop classic now in a bottle.
Bring the bottle back when you’re done and we’ll top it up for cheaper. No reason to chuck it.

Buddy's "Salty Surprise"
Volume, texture, and just the right amount of grit. Perfect for messy mullets or clean crops that need a boost.
Empty bottle? Bring it in, we’ll refill it for less. Save some cash, save the planet, everyone wins.
First Time?
Here’s everything you need to know before you swing by.
Book or Walk In
Book online through Vagaro and skip the wait, or just rock up. Walk ins are always welcome, but a booking guarantees your spot. We’ll sort you out either way.
What to Expect
A proper consultation before we touch a hair. Tell us what you’re after, show us a pic, or just ask our barbers what they reckon would suit you. Cold beer while you wait, good tunes, and zero pretension.
Getting to Buddy’s
We’re in Carlton, right near Melbourne Uni, RMIT, and the Royal Melbourne Hospital. If you know Good Measure coffee shop or Standing Room Carlton, you’re practically here.
Parking
Big concrete multi storey car park directly across the road. Can’t miss it. Plenty of on street parking around the area too, just keep an eye on the signs.
Public Transport
Tram routes 1, 6, and 8 all run down Swanston Street and through Carlton, dropping you pretty much at our door. If you’re coming by train, Melbourne Central or Parliament stations are a short walk or one tram stop away.
