Hot Towel Shave

Forty-five minutes, three towels and one very sharp razor. The service that built the shop.

What happens in the chair

We recline you flat, wrap your face in a eucalyptus-steamed towel and let the beard soften while the razor gets its last strop.

  1. 1

    Steam

    Two hot towels open the pores and soften the stubble.

  2. 2

    Lather

    Pre-shave oil and a warm lather whipped by hand with a badger brush.

  3. 3

    Two passes

    With the grain, then across — never against unless you ask.

  4. 4

    Cold close

    A cold towel, alum block and a witch-hazel balm to calm the skin.

Good to know: If you have very sensitive skin, tell us when you book — we switch to a single pass and a fragrance-free lather.
