Missing Records

0.5 miles
247 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G2 8DL

Circa Vintage

The Men's Store

These days, buff blokes tan. And groom. And tweeze. And, er, wax. Everything but the guyliner at this high-end grooming gaff for geezers. Grooming packages range from £1.80 for minimal sideburn tweaking to £100 for a fully monty. No, not like that.

Relics

Ruthven Mews, Dowanside Lane, Glasgow, G12 9BZ
