VISITING THE WORLD'S OLDEST BARBERS

Stepping into Truefitt & Hill in St James’s is like entering a gentleman’s sanctuary, where over two centuries of grooming tradition come to life.

As the world's oldest barbers, they’ve seen the likes of Frank Sinatra, Charles Dickens, and Winston Churchill in their chairs—so I was in good company. Reclining in the classic leather barber’s chair, hot towel wrapped around my face, I could almost hear the echoes of history in the razor’s glide.

A shave here isn’t just about looking sharp—it’s about experiencing a ritual fit for legends.
