Why the bench is small

We stay small on purpose. Everyone here is trained the same way, follows the same written procedures, and finishes a service the same way.

Our barbers work together to serve our clients, not compete over them. If your barber is running behind, another barber may take care of you rather than leave you waiting, and you stay prebooked with your preferred barber for next time.

That also makes it easy to keep your barber. Prebook before you leave.
