A proper cut, at a time that suits you
Three chairs on Franklin Street. Pick your barber, pick your service, pick your time — and pay in the shop when you are done.
Book a chair
Choose a barber, then a service, then a time. You pay in the shop — nothing is taken now.
Marcus — master barber
Twenty-two years behind the chair. Skin fades, scissor work and a hot towel shave that takes as long as it takes.
Choose a time
Elena — colour & cut
Colour specialist. Balayage, root work and cuts that grow out properly instead of falling apart in three weeks.
Choose a time
Jules — kids & quick cuts
Fast, calm and unbothered by a four-year-old who will not sit still. Walk-ins welcome when the book allows.

Who is in this week
Everyone keeps their own book, so hours differ a little between chairs.

Master barber · Tue–Sat, 9–6
Twenty-two years in the trade, eleven of them on this street. Fades, scissor work and shaves.
Elena Marchetti
Colour & cut · Tue–Sat, 10–7
Trained in Milan. Takes the long appointments — balayage, corrections and anything that needs planning.
Jules Okafor

Quick, calm and very good with children who would rather be anywhere else.

Regulars
I book on my phone on the train home and there is always something the next morning. Never once had to ring up.
Elena fixed a box-dye disaster I will not describe further. Three years later I still travel across town for it.
Took my son to Jules after two bad experiences elsewhere. He now asks to go. That is the whole review.
