The family shop in west Kitchener

Looking for a barber near Forest Heights or Highland West? Othman's Westheights is in Driftwood Plaza at 450 Westheights Dr, minutes from Westheights Public School, with free parking right outside the door.

This is the shop families come to, and patience is the reason. We cut children's hair from one month through thirteen years at a discounted rate, and if it is a first haircut we will pair you with a barber who is used to nervous first-timers and will take as long as it takes. Discounted senior cuts for 65+ as well.

The grown-up work is the same standard as the rest of the group: skin fades and tapers blended clean, scissor cuts and textured crops for longer hair, beard shaping lined with a straight razor. Every appointment opens with a consultation, so nobody sits down and hopes for the best.

What we do here

Pick the cut first

Knowing the guard number before you sit down saves five minutes of guessing. Show your barber the name, or just the number.

0–2Guard

Skin fade

Bare at the neckline, blended up into length on top. The blend is the whole job — done properly there is no line where one length becomes the next. Grows out fastest, so plan on about three weeks.

2–4Guard

Mid taper fade

Softer contrast, starting higher on the head. Holds its shape longer than a skin fade, which makes it the practical pick if you want one cut to carry you.

ScissorOn top

Scissor cut

Cut entirely with shears, no clippers on top. Point-cut through the ends to take weight out without losing length, so it falls naturally instead of sitting in a block. Grows out well.

ScissorMod & classic

Mod cut

A proper side part or a French crop with a real disconnect — the sharp, tailored end of barbering. Ask at Guelph or Waterloo, where we cut these most.

3–4Guard

Crew cut

Short and even all over, a little longer at the front. Nothing to style in the morning, and the lowest-maintenance cut we do.

BeardRazor line

Beard & hot towel

Shaped to your jaw rather than a template, lined with a straight razor, finished with a hot towel. The detail work people come back for.
