Last updated: 3 October 2026

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the Neck Tapers mobile application ("App") and the booking, loyalty and related services we provide through it. By creating an account, signing in, booking an appointment or otherwise using the App, you confirm that you accept these Terms and agree to comply with them. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the App.

1. About Us

The App is operated by Ntapers Brockley Limited ("we", "us", "our"), a company registered in England and Wales.

  • Registered office: 214 Lower Addiscombe Road, Croydon, CR0 7AB, England
  • Trading name: Neck Tapers
  • Contact email: necktapers@gmail.com

Our shops trade as "Neck Tapers Barbers Brockley" (24–26 Brockley Cross, London SE4 2AA) and "Neck Tapers Barbers New Cross" (262 New Cross Road, London SE14 5PL).

2. Your Account

2.1 Sign-in

You can access the App using an email address and password, Sign in with Apple, or Sign in with Google. If you use Apple or Google, you authorise us to receive information from that provider, such as your name, email address or private relay email, in accordance with its terms. We never receive your Apple or Google password.

2.2 Information You Provide

When you create or complete your account, we ask you to provide:

  • First name and surname
  • Mobile phone number
  • Birth day and month

We use this information to identify you when you visit the shop, contact you about bookings, operate your account and provide eligible offers. We do not ask for your birth year through the birthday field.

2.3 Your Responsibilities

  • You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure.
  • You must provide accurate, current and complete information.
  • You must not allow anyone else to use your account.
  • You are responsible for all activity that takes place under your account.

If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us at necktapers@gmail.com immediately.

2.4 Closing Your Account

You may delete your account at any time from within the App or by contacting us. When you delete your account:

  • Any unused loyalty stamps and rewards are permanently lost.
  • Any future bookings connected to the account may be cancelled.
  • Your active profile is deleted or anonymised.
  • If you create another account later, previous loyalty stamps are not restored.

Some limited records may remain where required for accounting, unresolved fees, fraud and offer-abuse prevention, dispute resolution or legal obligations. Historical information that has already been exported to our encrypted business archive may also remain there. Our Privacy Policy explains these records, their purpose and the applicable retention arrangements.

3. Bookings and Payments

3.1 Booking an Appointment

You can book appointments with our barbers through the App. A booking is only confirmed once you receive an in-app confirmation. We may, at our discretion, decline or cancel any booking.

3.2 Saved Payment Method via Stripe

All bookings require a valid payment method, which is saved securely through our payment processor, Stripe. You may use a supported debit or credit card or another payment method offered by Stripe. We do not store your full card details.

No payment is taken when you book and no funds are held on your card. We save the payment method so that the applicable fee can be charged if you do not attend or cancel less than 6 hours before your appointment.

If you attend your appointment as booked, the saved payment method is not charged for the booking and you pay for your service in the shop.

To ask us to remove your saved payment method, contact the shop.

3.3 No-Show and Late-Cancellation Fee

We may charge a no-show or late-cancellation fee equal to 30% of your undiscounted booking total. The booking total includes the service and any add-ons selected for the booking, before any discount, offer or loyalty reward.

The fee may apply if:

  • You cancel less than 6 hours before the scheduled appointment time.
  • You do not attend the appointment.
  • You arrive more than 10 minutes late and the shop is unable to honour the booking. In this situation, the shop may treat the booking as a no-show.

By making a booking through the App, you authorise us to charge this fee to your saved payment method without further notice.

3.4 Free Cancellation

You may cancel without a fee if you cancel at least 6 hours before the scheduled appointment time through the Bookings tab in the App.

Because no payment is taken or held when you book, an eligible cancellation does not create a card-hold release or booking-payment refund.

3.5 Pricing

Service prices are displayed in the App and may change from time to time. The price applicable to your booking is the price displayed at the time you confirm the booking, even if the price subsequently changes before your appointment. We reserve the right to update prices and services at any time without prior notice.

Offers, referral savings and loyalty rewards are applied in the shop at checkout. They do not reduce the amount used to calculate a no-show or late-cancellation fee.

4. Loyalty Programme

4.1 How It Works

Eligible completed paid haircuts earn loyalty stamps. Once you have collected 9 live stamps, you can choose to redeem your full card for a £1 haircut on your next eligible visit — the 10th visit in that loyalty cycle.

The reward is applied by the shop at checkout. Products are sold separately and are not included in the loyalty reward.

The booking and fee rules in section 3 still apply when you use a loyalty reward. Any no-show or late-cancellation fee is calculated from the full undiscounted booking total.

4.2 Earning Stamps

App bookings: An eligible stamp is added after the shop completes your booking and checkout.

Walk-in visits: You can earn an eligible stamp by tapping your phone on the shop’s NFC tag. Walk-in NFC stamps are limited to one per customer per London calendar day, with at least one hour between accepted taps.

Kids and Student services do not earn loyalty stamps.

4.3 Friends and Family

Stamps cannot be transferred between accounts. However, if you attend with a friend who has paid for their own service, you may add their stamp to your account, provided you make this clear to the barber at the time and the second customer consents. Please note this in your booking or to the barber on the day.

4.4 Abuse of the Loyalty Programme

We monitor stamp activity. If we have reasonable evidence of abuse — for example, multiple stamps claimed in a single day where only one booking or service has taken place, and the additional stamps are not accounted for as friend/family stamps — we reserve the right to:

  • Revoke or adjust stamps on your account, supported by our internal logs (date, time and transaction records);
  • Suspend or terminate your loyalty card; and
  • Suspend or close your account in serious or repeated cases.

We will tell you why we have made an adjustment if you ask.

4.5 Stamp Expiry

Each loyalty card expires 12 months after the first stamp on that card was earned. All stamps on the same card expire together. Later bookings, stamps or account activity do not restart that card’s 12-month period.

4.6 Changes to the Programme

We may change, suspend or end the loyalty programme, or change the rewards or stamp values, at any time. Where reasonably possible, we will give you notice via the App or email.

5. Conduct In-Store and Right to Refuse Service

We want our shops to be safe and welcoming for staff and customers. We may refuse, cancel or terminate service if you engage in the conduct listed below. Where applicable, a no-show or late-cancellation fee properly due under section 3 may still be charged.

  • Behave in an abusive, threatening, discriminatory or violent manner;
  • Are intoxicated or under the influence of illegal substances;
  • Refuse to follow reasonable instructions from our staff;
  • Damage our property; or
  • Otherwise breach these Terms.

In serious cases, we may also ban you from booking further appointments and from entering our shops.

6. Services, Allergies and Style Outcomes

6.1 Allergies and Skin Sensitivities

You must inform your barber before your service of any allergies, skin sensitivities, scalp conditions or relevant medical conditions. We use a range of products and tools, and we cannot accept liability for adverse reactions if you have not disclosed a relevant allergy or condition.

6.2 Style Outcomes

The final result of any haircut, shave or styling service depends on your hair type, hair condition, head shape and how clearly the desired style is communicated. We will always do our best to deliver the look you ask for, but we do not guarantee any specific outcome. If you are unhappy with your service, please tell the barber before you leave the shop. Any redos, adjustments or partial refunds are at our discretion.

7. Photography and Portfolio Use

By accepting these Terms, you agree that we may take photographs of your haircut or styling result during or after your service, and use those photographs for our portfolio, social media accounts, website, App and other marketing materials.

If you do not want a photograph to be taken, simply tell your barber verbally before or during the service and no photograph will be taken. There is no need to sign anything.

If we have already used a photograph of you and you would like it removed, email us at necktapers@gmail.com with details and we will remove it from any platforms we control within a reasonable time.

8. Reviews in the App

The reviews shown in the App are real Google reviews left by our customers. We display them in the App for information purposes only. The App does not allow users to post their own reviews. If you would like to leave a review, please do so on our Google Business profile.

9. Acceptable Use of the App

You agree not to:

  • Use the App for any unlawful, fraudulent or harmful purpose;
  • Attempt to access another person's account;
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile or otherwise tamper with the App;
  • Use bots, scripts or automated means to interact with the App;
  • Make bookings with no genuine intention of attending;
  • Submit false or misleading information; or
  • Interfere with the operation, security or integrity of the App or our systems.

10. Chargebacks and Disputes

If you dispute a charge with your bank or card issuer (a "chargeback") for a fee that is properly due under these Terms — for example, a no-show fee or late cancellation fee that has been correctly applied — and we reasonably consider that the chargeback is not genuine, we reserve the right to:

  • Provide our records and evidence to the bank or card issuer;
  • Suspend or permanently ban your account from the App; and
  • Refuse to accept future bookings from you at any of our shops.

If you believe a fee has been applied incorrectly, please contact us first at necktapers@gmail.com so we can resolve it.

11. Privacy and Data Protection

We process personal data in accordance with applicable UK data protection laws, including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Information we process includes:

  • Account and sign-in information, including your name, email address and mobile number
  • Your birth day and month
  • Booking, service, loyalty and checkout information
  • Limited saved-payment information supplied by Stripe, such as card brand, last four digits and Stripe references
  • Communications and customer-support reports
  • Security, diagnostic, fraud-prevention and one-time-offer anti-reuse information
  • Historical business records held in our encrypted archive or by service providers where applicable

We use this information to provide the App and shop services, manage bookings and loyalty, process applicable fees, prevent abuse, respond to customer reports, maintain security and meet accounting or legal obligations. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

12. Intellectual Property

The App, the "Neck Tapers" name, the "Masters of Barbering" tagline, our logos, branding, designs, images, text and all other content in the App are owned by Ntapers Brockley Limited or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trade mark and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute or commercially exploit any of this content without our prior written permission.

13. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

13.1 Availability of the App

We try to keep the App available and working at all times, but we do not guarantee that it will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free or free of viruses or bugs. We may suspend or restrict access to the App for maintenance, updates or other operational reasons.

13.2 Nothing in These Terms Limits Liability That Cannot Be Limited

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded under English law.

13.3 Limitations

Subject to section 13.2, and to the maximum extent permitted by law:

  • We are not liable for any business loss, loss of profits, loss of opportunity, loss of data or indirect or consequential losses;
  • We are not liable for any reaction to products used during a service where you have not disclosed a relevant allergy or condition;
  • We are not liable for any dissatisfaction with style outcomes beyond what is described in section 6.2; and
  • Our total liability to you in connection with any single booking is limited to the amount you actually paid for that booking.

14. Events Outside Our Control

We are not liable for any failure to perform, or delay in performing, our obligations under these Terms where the failure or delay is caused by events outside our reasonable control. This includes (without limitation) illness or absence of staff, power failures, telecoms failures, payment processor outages, fires, floods, severe weather, acts of God, public health emergencies, government action and acts of terrorism. In such cases, we will contact you as soon as reasonably possible and try to rearrange your appointment.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this document tells you when. If we make material changes, we will give you reasonable notice through the App or by email. Your continued use of the App after the changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept the changes, you should stop using the App and may delete your account.

16. General

16.1 Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

16.2 No Waiver

If we do not enforce any right under these Terms, that does not mean we waive it.

16.3 Assignment

You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms. We may assign or transfer ours, including to a successor in our business.

16.4 Entire Agreement

These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy) form the entire agreement between you and us in relation to the App and supersede any previous agreement between us on the same subject.

17. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute or claim.
