Shaped to your jaw. Not a stencil.

Trimmed to the shape of your face, razor-lined at the cheek and neck, and oiled. Twenty minutes that changes how the whole cut reads.

01The appointment
  1. 01

    The shape is set against your jawline and your neck, which is where most beards go wrong.

  2. 02

    Length is taken down with scissors or clippers depending on how it grows and how much you want left.

  3. 03

    Cheek line and neck line are cut with a straight razor, so the edge is a real edge.

  4. 04

    Hot towel, oil, and a note on where to trim it yourself between visits.

Book this if

  • Any beard past a fortnight of growth
  • Patchy growth that needs shaping rather than cutting back
  • Booking alongside a cut — the two shapes should be decided together

Worth knowing

  • A beard line holds for two to three weeks. After that it is a new shape, not a tidy-up.
  • We will not take a beard off entirely on a whim in a twenty-minute slot. If that is the plan, book the Royal Shave and enjoy it.
