About OB The Barber

OB The Barber is a professional barber service based in Truro, England, operating from within the Hybrid Hair / Koyo Hair space in the Pannier Market area. The business focuses on contemporary and traditional men’s grooming, including full barber haircuts, buzz cuts, fades, beard trims, and children’s cuts, delivered by an experienced barber with over a decade in the industry. Clients usually schedule visits through online booking platforms like Fresha, where OB The Barber maintains a dedicated profile and service menu.

A charge from “SQ *OB THE BARBER” on a card statement is most likely from an in-person payment for a haircut, beard trim, or similar grooming service processed via Square’s point‑of‑sale system. Pricing commonly aligns with typical UK barbershop rates (e.g., standard cuts, kids’ cuts, and beard trims each with set menu prices), and the total may be higher if multiple services or multiple people were served in a single visit. In some cases, you might also see small test or pending amounts when a card is first inserted or tapped, which are authorization holds by the payment processor rather than additional service fees.

If you’re unsure about a charge, first check your recent appointment history and email or SMS confirmations from the online booking service you used (such as Fresha) for OB The Barber, which will show the date, time, and service total. Matching the transaction date and amount with a recent visit usually confirms the charge. To resolve issues, you can contact OB The Barber via the contact details listed on their booking page or through the Hybrid Hair/Truro salon social channels, and your card issuer can also help dispute a transaction if you suspect it’s unauthorized.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from “SQ *OB THE BARBER” on my card statement?

This descriptor indicates you paid OB The Barber using Square’s card terminal, most likely for a haircut, beard trim, or other grooming service. Check your recent appointment date and the total paid at the chair or counter to confirm it matches the transaction amount.

Does OB The Barber use subscriptions or recurring billing for services?

No, barbershop services at OB The Barber are typically charged per visit. Each haircut or grooming service is a one‑time payment taken at the end of the appointment rather than a recurring subscription.

What are typical prices for services at OB The Barber?

While exact prices can change over time, OB The Barber’s online booking menu generally lists separate prices for standard barber haircuts, buzz cuts, beard trims, kids’ cuts, and combination services. Review the current price list on the booking page you used (such as Fresha) to see the exact amount you were quoted for your visit.

How can I cancel or reschedule an appointment with OB The Barber?

If you booked online, return to the confirmation email or SMS from the booking platform (for example Fresha) and use the manage‑booking link to cancel or reschedule within the allowed time window. If that link isn’t available, contact OB The Barber or the host salon directly using the phone or social contacts shown on their booking profile.

How do I request a refund or adjustment for a charge from OB The Barber?

Refunds or charge adjustments must be handled directly by OB The Barber. Reach out via the contact details on their online booking page or the Hybrid Hair/Koyo Hair social media profiles, provide your appointment date, the last four digits of your card, and the amount charged, and ask them to review the transaction. If you cannot resolve it, you may also contact your card issuer to dispute the charge.

Why is there a small pending or duplicate charge from OB The Barber on my statement?

When your card is first inserted or tapped, Square and your bank may place a temporary authorization hold to verify the payment method. This can look like a small or duplicate pending amount but usually drops off automatically within a few days, leaving only the final haircut total posted to your account.

Can OB The Barber split payments or charge for multiple people on one transaction?

Yes, it’s common for barbershops to ring up multiple haircuts or add‑on services on a single payment if more than one person was seen. In that case, you might notice a higher‑than‑usual total from OB The Barber that reflects all services combined in one Square transaction.

How can I get a receipt for my visit to OB The Barber?

If you paid via Square, you may have been offered an emailed or SMS receipt at the time of payment. You can also ask OB The Barber directly—either during your next visit or via their online booking/contact details—to resend or recreate a receipt by giving them the date, approximate time, and last four digits of the card you used.
