What Walk-Ins Should Know
Saturdays book up by ten. Drop in mid-week if you can — the chairs turn faster and there is usually espresso going.

Beard Care Beyond the Trim
Healthy beards are not just a tidy line. They start with the right oil, the right brush, and a wash that does not strip the skin. Here is the routine we recommend.

Picking the Right Cut for Your Face Shape
Round, square, oval, long. The right cut works with what you already have. Our barbers walk you through what suits you before they pick up the clippers.

Membership
One key, a hundred members, no waitlist ever.
The retreat operates on a strict membership of one hundred. When a key retires, a single seat opens — and the three names at the top of the interest list are notified. Most members stay for a decade or more, so the list does not move quickly. This is on purpose.
Membership includes priority booking on any afternoon, access to the third-floor leather lounge, a private entrance off the alley, and two guest passes per calendar year. Dues are $2,400 annually, billed in one note on the first of the year. There is no enrollment fee, and there are no add-ons you cannot see on the board.
You do not need to be a member to visit. Any of the three afternoon packages are open to the public, by reservation, with the concierge. If you book the same package three times in a year, we will hand you an interest-list slip on your way out.
Open Tuesday — Saturday
Three suites, four hours free this Saturday. Send a note.
