Duration & Appointment Timing

Your appointment is 45 minutes, including consultation, shampoo, cut and finish, and the hot towel wet shave. We work to time without rushing the details.

For the closest result, avoid shaving for 24 to 48 hours before your visit. Please arrive on time so we can make the most of your slot.

Aftercare & Maintenance

After the shave, avoid hot showers, steam or heavy exfoliation the same day. Rinse with cool water if needed and use an alcohol free balm.

For hair, avoid washing for a few hours to let the finish settle. Use a light matte product or sea salt spray for natural hold.

Most clients book haircuts every 3 to 5 weeks. Book shaves as needed, weekly or before key dates, to maintain a smooth result.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this service include?
A short consultation, a thorough shampoo, a precision cut and finish, hot towel preparation, a traditional straight razor wet shave, and post shave care. Expect tidy edges, a smooth, comfortable shave, and practical styling advice to keep the look fresh at home.
Is the hot towel shave suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The hot towel softens the beard and helps the razor glide, and we use light pressure and calming balms to reduce irritation. Tell us about any sensitivities and we will adjust the shave to suit you.
Can you work with thinning hair or a receding hairline?
Absolutely. We cut to enhance the appearance of density, balance the hairline and create a flattering shape. Finishing products are chosen to avoid weighing hair down and to keep texture looking natural.
How should I prepare before the appointment?
Come as you are. We will wash your hair in the chair. For the closest shave, avoid shaving for 24 to 48 hours beforehand and arrive without heavy moisturiser or aftershave on your face.
How long do results last and when should I book again?
Most clients return every 3 to 5 weeks for a cut, depending on growth and style. Book shaves as needed, often weekly or ahead of key dates, to maintain a smooth, clean finish.
