Scalp care is not medical care. If your hair has thinned quickly or your scalp is sore, we will suggest you ask a doctor first.

  • Hairline shaping

    30 min

    A clean, even line at the forehead, temples and neck.

    Also an add-on

  • Close crop

    40 min

Prices are set by your barber's level and the length of the visit, and show on the booking page before you confirm. The first head shave and the scalp care visit take a deposit that holds your time and goes toward the visit.

Before you book

When to ask your doctor first

A barber looks after a scalp. A doctor looks into why it changes. Both matter.

Ask your doctor or a dermatologist first if

  • Your hair has thinned quickly or come out in patches.
  • Your scalp is sore, itchy, heavily flaking or has a rash.
  • A mole or spot on your scalp has changed, bleeds or will not heal.

We do not diagnose, and a visit here is not medical care. If your barber sees something that should be looked at, they will say so plainly and suggest you ask a doctor. You are welcome to book again afterward.

The shop

Three chairs, set before you sit

Every visit is booked, so the chair is ready when you are. The tray is laid out before you sit: clippers, a foil shaver, hot towels and a lather bowl.

Your barber talks you through each step, and tells you what they see as they go.

Questions, answered

Do you take walk-ins?

No. Scalp is by appointment, so every visit has the time it needs and there is no line to join. Book on the booking page, or call and we will find you a time.

How long does a head shave take?

A clipper head shave takes about 35 minutes and a hot towel head shave about 55. The menu shows the minutes for every service.

Can you do something about my thinning hair?

We can shave or cut it cleanly, shape your hairline and look after your scalp. We do not diagnose, and we do not offer anything for hair loss. If it has changed quickly, ask your doctor first.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

The first head shave and the scalp care visit take a deposit when you book. It holds your time and goes toward the visit. The other services take none, and the booking page shows the amount.

Can I book a particular barber?

Yes. Earnest and Jerome each have a booking link on their card and on their page.

What if my scalp is sore or irritated?

Please wait, and ask your doctor first. We do not shave over broken or irritated skin, and we would rather rebook you than make it worse.
