Straight-Razor Shaves
The closest shave you've ever had. Our barbers deliver the classic straight-razor experience with expert precision and old-world attention to detail.
About Straight-Razor Shaves in Dallas
There's nothing quite like a traditional straight-razor shave. At 18|8 Fine Men's Salons in Dallas, our licensed barbers deliver the full ritual — a hot-towel steam to open the pores, warm lather, and a precise straight-razor pass that leaves your skin smoother and cleaner than any cartridge razor can. It's part grooming, part twenty minutes of pure relaxation.
Straight-razor work is performed only by our licensed barbers — it's a craft that takes real training and a steady hand. When you book a shave or a straight-razor edge-up, you'll always be paired with a barber, so you're in expert hands every time.
Done regularly, a hot-towel shave also helps exfoliate the skin and reduce ingrown hairs and razor burn. Add our Executive Shave with a mini facial for an extra-rejuvenating finish, or pair a shave with a haircut to look sharp head to toe.

Straight-Razor Shaves FAQs
Who performs the straight-razor shave?
All straight-razor work is performed by our licensed barbers — it's a skilled craft, and when you book a shave or a straight-razor edge-up you'll always be paired with a barber.
Is a straight-razor shave better than shaving at home?
For most men, yes. The hot-towel prep, warm lather, and a single sharp blade give a closer, more comfortable shave than a multi-blade cartridge — with less irritation and fewer ingrown hairs, especially when done regularly.
What's included in the Executive Shave?
The Executive Shave is our classic straight-razor shave plus a mini facial — a cleanse and a rejuvenating moisture treatment — for an extra-refreshing finish.
How often can I get a straight-razor shave?
As often as you like — many clients come weekly. Regular hot-towel shaves actually help exfoliate the skin and can reduce razor burn and ingrown hairs over time.
