Frequently asked

Everything people ask us in the chair

Italian shave, Silver shampoo, walk-in hours, payment: answers to the questions we hear most often.

  • A contour shave outlines the beard with a straight razor: cheeks, neck and throat are cleaned up while the beard stays. The Italian shave is a full straight-razor shave — the skin is left completely smooth, which takes more time and precision.

  • Preparation cream, hot then cold compresses, lather worked up with a brush, straight-razor shave and a soothing aftershave treatment. Around thirty minutes — moustache kept if you wish.

  • Everything is included: preparation cream, hot compress, shaving lather, hot and cold compresses, and aftershave treatment. Nothing extra.

  • It's a purple-pigment shampoo that neutralises yellow tones in white and grey hair. The processing time is included in the service, with no extra duration.

  • Yes, it's a price add-on, not a time add-on. The standard shampoo is +3 CHF. The Silver shampoo is +5 CHF because it uses a premium purple-pigment product — not because of extra time. It stays quick and efficient, fitting within your service duration.

  • No. The shampoo is quick and efficient: no extra time, it fits within your existing appointment.

  • Of course. Working around the moustache and chin is part of the craft — just tell your barber before we start.

  • From fifteen minutes for a beard trim to sixty minutes for the full cut + beard + shave ritual. The exact duration is shown next to each service on the Services page.

  • On Tuesday and Wednesday we work walk-in only: come by and wait your turn. From Thursday to Saturday, by appointment only.

  • Only through the online booking system or by phone at +41 24 425 88 89. We do not take appointments by email or by social media message.

  • Our craft is men's hairdressing, beard and shaving — what we have done since 1971. Children are welcome when accompanied.

  • We cut the very little ones from 3 months old, as long as they can sit or sit on a parent's lap. Come with a little patience, leave with a sharp look.

  • Through the confirmation link from your online booking, or by calling the shop. Let us know as early as you can — a freed slot goes to someone else.

  • Call us and we'll do our best. Beyond ten minutes or so, the service may be shortened or rescheduled so the following clients aren't pushed back.
