The haircut brothers (Japanese: さんぱつきょうだい Haircut brothers) are groomers in Pokémon Gold and Silver and their remakes, Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, occasionally appearing in the Goldenrod Tunnel in Goldenrod City, Johto.
As the name suggests, the brothers give a single Pokémon a haircut that increases the friendship of the Pokémon, once per day. Using the services of the brothers is useful for evolving Pokémon that require a certain amount of friendship to evolve, such as Togepi or Eevee. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the service not only raises a Pokémon's friendship, but also raises its Beauty stat, which is necessary to evolve Feebas into Milotic, due to the absence of Pokémon Super Contests in the games.
The younger of the Haircut brothers is cheaper at $300, but his service is often less satisfactory. However, the younger brother has a chance of occasionally increasing a Pokémon's friendship to a greater degree than the older brother is capable. The older brother is more reliable but more expensive at $500.
In the games
Having a haircut brother groom a Pokémon increases its friendship. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, grooming also increases a Pokémon's Beauty condition, but also increases its sheen.
Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal
The amount of friendship a Pokémon gains from a haircut depends on their reaction, their current friendship, and the brother who gave the haircut. The Pokémon's reaction is determined randomly.

| <Pokémon> looks a little happier. | Either | +1 | |
| <Pokémon> looks happy. | Either | +3 | +1 |
| <Pokémon> looks delighted! | Older | +5 | +2 |
| Younger | +10 | +4 | |
