Chris Ace

Founder & 18 year Barber 

There's a difference between cutting hair and understanding it. Between following established techniques and discovering what happens when you break from them deliberately. Chris works with an almost documentary attention to detail, observing how each client's hair moves, how it falls, how it wants to behave when left alone.

His approach rejects the overly produced. Instead, he creates cuts that feel lived-in from the start—hair that looks like it could only belong to you, styled in a way that suggests ease while revealing careful thought beneath the surface.

This philosophy extends to everything he makes. He believes that good products and services emerge from honesty, not replication. From knowing when to intervene and when to let things be.
