hot towel shave
Straight razor treatment
A hot towel shave is a traditional barbershop service where warm, moist towels are applied to the face before and during a straight-razor shave.
The heat and moisture soften facial hair and open pores, allowing for a closer, more comfortable shave.
The ritual typically includes multiple towel applications, lathering with shaving cream, and aftershave treatment—an experience more luxurious than shaving at home.
