What is a “Royal Shave” and how is it different from a regular shave?

A full ritual: hot towel, skin prep (pre-shave), straight-razor work at the correct angle, and a cold finish with alcohol-free balm. Results: glass-smooth finish, minimal irritation, and crisp lines.

Is a Royal Shave suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. We tailor products to your skin type, use short strokes, and finish with a cold compress. If needed we use a “one-pass + cold finish” protocol to reduce redness and ingrowns.

How long does it take and how often should I get it?

It takes 30–45 minutes depending on stubble and sensitivity. Frequency: every other day or 2–3× per week; for events, book the day of or the day before.

What tools and hygiene standards are used?

Single-use or sterilized blades, disinfected tools, and fresh towels per client. We use professional products to soften stubble and calm the skin.

How should I prepare for a Royal Shave?

Avoid harsh scrubs/acids for 24h. On the day, wash with warm water and skip alcohol toners. Ideal stubble length: ~0.5–3 mm.

Post-shave care: how to avoid irritation?

For 24h avoid sauna, pool, workouts; use SPF if sunny. Only alcohol-free balm; avoid touching your face. Apply a light moisturizer at night.

Is a straight razor safe?

Yes, in trained hands it’s safe. Sterile blades, ~30° angle, and skin tension provide a clean cut without razor burn.

Can I combine a Royal Shave with beard/moustache contouring?

Yes. We can do a clean shave on cheeks/neck and shape moustache/beard lines. Your barber will suggest what best suits your face shape.

Royal Shave from Lumberjack

Royal Shave at Lumberjack is a ritual of strength: a hot towel, a straight razor, and flawless smoothness that puts the final full stop on your look.

Royal Shave is more than removing stubble. It’s a ritual of precision and comfort: a hot towel, skin prep, a straight razor, and a perfectly controlled angle. The result is “glass-like” smoothness, clean contours, and confidence that holds its shape all day.

At Lumberjack Barberhouse, the Royal Shave is a personal ritual for “glass-like” smoothness. We start with a short consultation and product selection for your skin type, steam the face with a hot towel, prep with a pre-shave, and work with a straight razor at a precisely controlled angle. The result is clean contours, minimal irritation, and confidence you can feel from the first touch.

We don’t just “remove stubble” — we control every detail of the process. After cleansing and steaming, we apply a pre-shave oil or cream, perform controlled razor passes with the grain, and, if needed, across/against the grain with proper skin tension. We finish with a cold compress, an alum pencil (if necessary), and an alcohol-free balm to calm and restore the skin. This sequence delivers an even cut, comfort, and a long-lasting effect without redness.

We use sterile blades, premium cosmeceuticals, and a consistent timing standard — so you know what you’ll get every time: smoothness that lasts all day and contours that highlight your facial structure. It’s suitable even for sensitive skin: personalized product selection, correct technique, and a clear step-by-step protocol reduce the risk of irritation and ingrown hairs. We’ll also give simple at-home tips to maintain the result between visits without extra “rituals”.

Our barbers will help you choose the right ritual if you’re unsure. We consider skin sensitivity, stubble growth direction, grooming habits, and your daily rhythm — selecting towel temperature, pre-shave, and blade type so the process is максимально comfortable and clean specifically for you, not “the same for everyone”.

From a quick morning fresh shave to a full Royal protocol with a hot towel — we know how to balance absolute smoothness with zero irritation. No randomness — only a personalized approach, razor-angle control, and finishing care that leaves the skin calm and confident.

We work with premium shaving products and sterile blades to deliver an идеально clean cut and maximum comfort throughout the procedure. Every straight-razor movement is deliberate: the right angle, skin tension, towel temperature, and lather density — all combined into one precise algorithm.

Choosing a Royal Shave at Lumberjack Barberhouse means you’re getting more than a service — it’s a complete ritual, from consultation and skin preparation to a cold compress and a finishing balm. Here we build smoothness and calm skin that support your look every day.
