We are a modern old-school barber shop. It's not just about the haircut, it's about building a relationship with your barber.

Revolutionizing Traditional Shaving with Our Expert Techniques

Our hot towel shaves begin with the application of a warm, moist towel that opens up your pores and softens facial hair. This pre-treatment ensures a closer shave while minimizing irritation and razor burns.


Using high-quality, sharp straight razors, our experienced barbers provide precise strokes that evenly trim facial hair. This method reduces the chances of ingrown hairs and promotes smoother skin texture.


Post-shave treatments include soothing balms and moisturizers that rehydrate your skin. These products help prevent dryness and keep your face feeling fresh throughout the day in New York City's bustling environment.

"Mike is the best! Professional environment, appointments are always on time, good prices, and I always come out looking good! I never noticed how good my cuts could come out until I switched over to mike. Been going there for 7 years since."
