The Hot Towel Shave Experience is a 30-minute, $56 straight razor shave that begins with a skin evaluation and ends with a facial massage and after-shave balm. In between: a precision facial hair trim, pre-shave conditioner, a steaming hot towel, a shave brush scrub, and the razor itself, taken with and across the grain.

This is the service the old barbershops were famous for, done the way they did it and finished with premium Italian products. The heat opens the skin, the conditioner and brush prep the hair, and the straight razor does what no cartridge can: one clean pass at a time, guided by someone who does this all day.

Wet shaving your own face never feels quite the same afterward. Consider yourself warned.
