Flexible residency

Not ready for a studio? Take the stage.

MainStage is an open barber bay facing the Social Lounge: floating stations, oversized mirrors, warm light and The Rinse beside it. No glass between you and the room. Book it by the day, the weekend or the week.
MainStage: an open bay facing the lounge with five floating stations and tall lit mirrors along the back wall, barbers of different backgrounds at work, and two reclining shampoo chairs at The Rinse to one side.

03 — Where it leads

Start on the stage. Grow into a studio.

Plenty of barbers will stay on MainStage because it fits how they work. For others it's the first step: a weekend to try the room, a week to build the book, then a door of their own.

  1. Guest barber
  2. Weekend resident

  4. Private Residency

Next to the stations is The Rinse: premium shampoo bowls with reclining chairs, clean towels and supplies, shared with every Private Residency. See the Private Residency.
