The Turkish Ritual

Every hot-towel shave at Kingsway follows the same five movements, unchanged since 1921. Watch the chairs — you’ll see them in order, every time.

  1. A steaming hot towel wrapped over a client's face before the shave
    1

    Adım Bir

    Hot Towel

    Steamed towels, scented with lemon kolonya, open the pores and soften the beard before steel ever touches skin. Two towels, never one.

  2. Warm lather being worked onto the jaw with a badger brush
    2

    Adım İki

    Lather

    A badger brush works warm lather in slow circles — the old signal to sit back, close your eyes and surrender the jaw.

  3. The barber passing a lit taper near the ear to singe fine hair
    3

    Adım Üç

    Flame

    A lit taper passes the ears and cheekbones, singeing the fine hair no razor can catch. Fast, warm and startlingly precise.

  4. A straight razor drawn carefully through lather along the cheek
    4

    Adım Dört

    Razor

    The straight razor, freshly stropped and steady — two passes, with the grain and against it, down to glass-smooth.

  5. Cologne splashed onto the hands beside a glass of Turkish tea
    5

    Adım Beş

    Kolonya & Tea

    Lemon kolonya splashed cold to close the skin, then a glass of strong çay while you settle. Nobody rushes the last chapter.

Ustalar — the masters

Four chairs, four hands you can trust

Every barber at Kingsway apprenticed the old way — years on towels and lather before a razor was ever placed in their hand.

A century of word of mouth, now with a star rating attached.

Marcus is the only person I trust with a fade. Fifteen years of going here and it's never once been wrong.

The full service with the straight-razor shave is a proper experience. Hot towel, a drink, out looking sharp.
AAndre T.Verified visit

Booked in thirty seconds, in and out on time, and the cut was exactly what I asked for. Membership pays for itself.
