01

The Craft

Every fade is measured twice and cut once. Tapers, line-ups, beard sculpting — done with the patience the chair deserves. No rushing, no guessing, no apologies needed after.

02

The Barber

Ask for Shi. The name comes up in every five-star review for a reason — friendly, welcoming, and precise. Great cuts at prices that respect your wallet.
