Thunderkick’s Barber Shop slot gets a much needed revamp in the Uncut, far improved, version.
Originally, way back when Thunderkick slots could be counted in one hand, one of those little gems was a slot called Barber Shop.
Which was, to be honest, unimpressive.
Honestly we can’t even remember the original, and to be honest, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that whilst playing this Barber Shop Uncut mobile slot we were left with a happy feeling that we’d no doubt return to this quirky little hairdressers.
Much like the Turning Totems slot, which got a complete revamp, Thunderkick kept the best part intact: namely the cute and unusual theme.
They’ve always been good at thinking outside the box when it comes to making colourful slot machines; just think back at the Luchadora phone game for example.
And so, what you get at this Barber Shop Uncut slot is a slight Parisian feel as customer with all sorts of tache and beards come to get a foam and a shave from the mighty Barber – the highest paid symbol of the lot.
We love game with sticky wins and free re-spins, ever since we first came across them on Jack Hammer NetEnt game.
Basically, as soon as you find some winning symbols, these stay ‘sticky’ on screen whilst the rest of all the symbols re-spin for free.
This keeps happening for as long as you can get wins.
During the free spins, the concept is exactly the same, except you get a 3x multiplier to any win.
The Inwinity Spin – where you get to spin till you get a win at the end of your 10 free spins is more gimmick than particularly useful.
The idea is good, but honestly, you tend to finish with a little win soon enough – by then you’ve either gotten your big win, or you haven’t.
All these sticky wins, with or without the free spins, are simply fun.
More importantly, it allows you to play for much longer than you’d expect – especially as for a 40 payline slot, the minimum bet is set at a low 0.10 a spin.
Pure value for money, with a fun colourful theme and features, this is a perfect starter slot for all.
Once you’re ready you can move on to something like Fruit Warp slot with it’s more unusual mechanics.

Locking Wins With Re-spin: Everytime you get a win over these 40 paylines, the symbols will remain in place and all the other symbols will spin again.
As long as winning symbols show up, you'll get keeping free re-spins, until you get your final big win.
Bonus Scatters and Free Spins: Not an easy one to trigger, you'll need at least 5 bonus symbols on screen in order to trigger 10 free spins.
For every extra bonus symbol you find on trigger, you'll get an additional 2 free spins, up to a total of 30 free spins.
The good news is that 10 is enough, thanks to the one big Barber Shop Uncut slot feature: those sticky locking wins and re-spins.
Add a healthy 3x multiplier, and you've got a great bonus feature.
The Barber Shop Uncut slot on mobile and online works beautifully on all devices - though it's bright and simple graphic does make it pop out from smaller phone screen.
And don't think there's not some generous wins. Though it won't pay out as much as a game like Book of Ra 6, for example, it's not meant to be for those os us who are looking for more advance game-play.
Barber Shop is simple, with easy to understand mechanics that give you pure value for money on every spin.
Much like Quickspins Wins of Fortune game, this is about relishing every sticky win, with or without the free spin multipliers.
So much so, you won't even notice that this is one of the few slot games without wild symbols.
