Top barber for Hot Towel Shave in Paris — April 2026
A hot towel shave is a traditional barbering ritual that delivers an exceptionally close, smooth shave using a straight razor. Hot towels open the pores and soften the beard, a premium shaving cream is applied and worked into a rich lather, and the barber shaves with the grain using expert blade control. The experience concludes with a cold towel to close pores and soothing aftershave.
