Consultation
A proper conversation about your hair, your face and how you live with it day to day.
The work
Scissors, clippers and a straight razor, at the pace the cut needs. Classic shapes, made to suit you now.
The finish
Hot and cold towels, the right product, and advice on keeping it sharp until next time.

Your barber
From graphic design to the barber’s chair.
Duncan started out as a graphic designer. Around a year and a half in, he discovered barbering and found what he loved about design in it: proportion, composition and precision, with a person in the chair instead of a page on the screen.
He went on to work and teach with Schorem in Rotterdam, one of the best-known names in classic barbering. Today he works under his own name, specialising in short, timeless cuts inspired by the 1930s to the 1950s, beard work and traditional shaves.
Whoever you are and whatever your hair, you’re welcome in the chair.
